Hmmm, are you sure you have GstRtspServer built with introspection, and 
installed? For example, on my systems running Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty), 
GstRtspServer is not part of the standard GStreamer 1.x packages 
available via apt-get (which are all presently at version 1.2.4). You 
might need to download and build the gst-rtsp-server package from source 
(http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-rtsp-server), or you might 
prefer to build a complete GStreamer 1.x environment with cerbero (which 
is what I work with most of the time).

Cheers,

Mark.
