Help with my shoutcast

brusselsinflame · 24th February 2003, 20:07

Hey everyone. I am new here (the status tell is it all)
I have some problems with my first shoutcast attempt. I get the following event log when I do open the nullsoft shoutcast server:

Event log:
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [SHOUTcast] DNAS/win32 v1.9.2 (Nov 25 2002) starting up...
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [main] loaded config from C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast\sc_serv.ini
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [main] initializing (usermax:5 portbase:8000)...
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [main] No ban file found (sc_serv.ban)
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [main] No rip file found (sc_serv.rip)
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [main] opening source socket
<02/24/03@22:00:33> [main] error opening source socket! FATAL ERROR! Some other process is using this port!

Anybody got any idea? I thought I had most of the config correct since I followed the guidelines given here. Can anyone help?

Set SrcIP back to ANY. If that is not the cause then there is something already using port 8001 on your system.

I got the problem of the port resolved but now, it still won't connect. Any idea why?

Should I put the following?
http://myip:8000/listen.pls

Then I click connect to initialize my shoutcast. It tries for a bit and then disconnects. Ideas?

Are you connecting a source to the DNAS?

Also, machines on the same lan as the DNAS (you) need to use the lan ip of the DNAS to connect/listen.
Machines not on the same lan as the DNAS (the rest of the world) need to use the real, world-visible ip of the DNAS to connect/listen.

Got it working! Thanks people. I'm starting as a local radio for friends. If I can get a good bandwidth from my ISP, I'll post it here! For sure!
