[cPanel] How to install Java, ImageMagick and ffmpeg

1. Install Java

Use cPanel to do the installation, and manage java.

Within WHM, go to "EasyApache (Apache Update)".

Use your existing defaults, and select "tomcat"; and allow cPanel to recompile apache and php. Java will also be installed.

2. If you do not need Tomcat, it can, and should be disabled.
Within WHM, go to service manager -> disable tomcat.

3. Install ImageMagick

login to shell, and run the following script,
/scripts/installimagemagick

The script from cPanel will install ImageMagick

4. Setup dag repo (which will be used to install ffmpeg)

See http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#B2 for the instructions

eg, if you have a CentOS 5.x 64 bit server, use the following,

rpm -Uhv
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS//rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm

5. Install ffmpeg

within shell, run following,

yum install ffmpeg
