I am trying to get the Red5 Flash Media Server working on my computer. I have installed it, but when I run the server I get this error

 Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/red5/server/Bootstrap
 Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.red5.server.Bootstrap

  Could not find the main class: org.red5.server.Bootstrap. Program will exit.

I came across this link where someone had the same issue: http://trac.red5.org/ticket/762

It looks like they ran this command:

export CLASSPATH=3D$RED5_HOME/lib/slf4j-api-1.5.10.jar:$RED5_HOME/lib/logback- core-0.9.18.jar:$RED5_HOME/lib/logback-classic-0.9.18.jar

I have red5 installed in /usr/share/red5, so I ran this:

export CLASSPATH=3D$/usr/share/red5/lib/slf4j-api-1.5.10.jar:$/usr/share/red5/lib/logback-core-0.9.18.jar:$/usr/share/red5/lib/logback-classic-0.9.18.jar

Yet despite all this I am still seeing the same error message.
