Configure TURN server for webRTC with Firefox

Initially, I was using turn server for webRTC in my application only with Chrome but later i got the requirement of using turn server with Firefox as well.

I tried to run my application on Firefox with the same code as for Chrome,but i was getting the below error :

uncaught exception: buildPeerConnection failed, call not completed

Actually, as i mentioned in my previous blog Configure turn server for WebRTC on Amazon EC2 for configuring turn server that add below code in JavaScript file to use turn server:

var pc_config = {“iceServers”: [{“url”: “stun:stun.l.google.com:19302″},
{“url”:”turn:my_username@’amazon ec2 PUBLIC IP address’“,
“credential”:”my_password”}]};

Above code will run perfectly on Chrome but if you want to run on Firefox then change the above code as :

var pc_config = {“iceServers”: [{“url”: “stun:stun.l.google.com:19302″},
{“url”:”turn:’amazon ec2 PUBLIC ip address’ “,
"username":"my_username",
“credential”:”my_password”}]};

Above code will run for both Chrome and Firefox.

In older format, Firefox cannot find the username, and will not attempt to authenticate itself to the TURN server.

Cheers !
