<06/09/05@02:01:12> [main] opening client socket
<06/09/05@02:01:12> [main] error opening client socket! FATAL ERROR! Some other process is using this port!
<06/09/05@02:01:12> [source] creating relay socket
<06/09/05@02:01:12> [source] error creating relay socket! FATAL ERROR!

yep you missed the shoutcast disclaimer

Yep that is fine. Your problem lies on 'PortBase=8000;' as the DNAS has told you, something else is using the port already. Try changing it...

[TIRS-TheGimp]

i did still doesnt work, and whats the deal with the disclaimer? read it and i aint doing anything wrong. and like i said all the info on the huge confusing one nullsoft porvides i got on the smaller on but the smaller one doesnt work and the huge one does.

What i meant was that you cannot write your own software to use for shoutcasting since it isn't open source software.

perhaps i didn't understand your question in the way you meant it to be?

[TIRS-TheGimp]

ah lol,ok well i aint writing my own software, i am trying to make the SHOUTcast sc_server.ini just easier to read for me for quick changes. and the question was am i missing anything EX: Yport=80; or something like that

[NJK]

the sc_server.ini is a lot easier to read if you open it in winpad32 or wordpad instead of notepad.

ah well i think i am going to delete this topic in a lil bit cause i found one thats easier to read in notepad (cause notepad is l337, lol) and it works, thanks for the help though

you can't delete anything , you can however ask a moderator to close the topic.

[TIRS-TheGimp]

yeah i noticed that lol

Basically, once you get it right, the only options that need to appear in the file are the ones that are not the default.

It's really not a big issue either way, because the file is only read by the DNAS when the DNAS loads... I would say that the readability is far better in the verbose form, especially if you intend on making any changes to the config later.

The settings on your text editor (notepad/WordPad) have more to do with how easy it is to modify than the contents (text) of the config file if you ask me.

remove the simi-colons from the end of the lines, it isn't a programming language ;)
