Hello fellow administrators and OpenVidu experts,

I’d like to deploy OpenVidu CE using the installation script, but with **all optional modules disabled**. Specifically, I want to install OpenVidu without the **observability** components and without the **OpenVidu Meet** application.

According to the documentation, the installation command looks like this:

```auto
sh <(curl -fsSL http://get.openvidu.io/community/singlenode/latest/install.sh) \
    --no-tty --install \
    --enabled-modules='observability,openviduMeet'

```

The recommended method seems to be setting `--enabled-modules` to an empty value, but doing so still results in all optional modules being installed.

What is the proper way to **completely disable the Meet application**? We have our own frontend that integrates with the LiveKit API, so we do not need OpenVidu Meet at all.

Of course, I could manually remove or disable the services in the Docker Compose files or adjust the Caddy configuration, but I’m wondering if there is a built-in or officially supported way to skip these modules during installation.

Hello @n224

I need to check if this is a bug. To workaround this, simply go to your `/opt/openvidu/config/openvidu.env` and set this variable as empty:

```auto
ENABLED_MODULES=

```

… and restart …

```auto
systemctl restart openvidu

```

With this empty, those services will not run. [Check this](https://openvidu.io/latest/docs/self-hosting/how-to-guides/enable-disable-modules/) for more info.

Best Regards.
