Install
The first install attempt requested the following command be run.
sudo dpkg --configure -a
The video web server depended on collada-dom. It created other unmet dependency errors and an overwrite errors for a cmake file. "This seems to be related to ROS, the Robot Operating System, the main user of Collada. It may be a problem with having both ROS-Indigo and Ros-Jade (different versions) installed." See this link for help: Unmet dependencies. Jade is installed on this system. To fix the following was done.
sudo apt-get install -f sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/collada-dom2.4-sp-dev_2.4.4.1-ubuntu1~trusty1_amd64.deb
Now the following worked.
sudo apt-get install collada-dom2.4-sp-dev sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-async-web-server-cpp sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-web-video-server

/dev/vidoe0 is not set properly when booting into the console only. An error will occur. The work-around is:
