shoutcast server stability issues...

[lonebaen]

Shoutcast server is setup and working at http://www.kudo1080.com:8000 and transmitting the station signal at 24Kpbs/22Khz

The problem is that it just drops off line after a while. No error messages in any log on the server. Just dies. I was thinking of using xinet.d to setup the server as a service but get this as my reply when going to the url above:

*******************************************************************************
** SHOUTcast Distributed Network Audio Server
** Copyright (C) 1998-2004 Nullsoft, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
** Use "sc_serv filename.ini" to specify an ini file.
*******************************************************************************

which tells me that the xinet.d/shoutcast is not passing the server flags to the shoutcast server. Here is the /etc/xinet.d/shoutcast listing:

service shoutcast
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = nobody
instances = UNLIMITED
server = /usr/local/shoutcast/sc_serv
server_args = /etc/shoutcast/sc_serv.conf
}

so with that not working I am at a loss as to what to try next. Anyone have any ideas?

Here is the /etc/shoutcast/sc_serv.conf if anyone wants to point out any errors I might have:

MaxUser=125

Thanks again in advance

you set the listener time to 10 mins
look!

ListenerTimer=600

Should be 0 for never

and you told the server to dump/disconnect after 30 seconds

look!

AutoDumpUsers=0
AutoDumpSourceTime=30

So that would account for the process to just disapear? When I use the ps -ef | grep sc_serv nothing shows up except the grep query. Shouldn't it log something or note that it is going away somewhere?
