Help - Wont Connect?

[LuckyStrike]

I uploaded to my server the pls file with the correct IP on it, Configured the SHOUTcast server with the right IP on it, put the right IP and PASS in the winamp window, hit connect. then it says : connecting.... but then a few seconds later says Not Connected ...and it does that everytime I hit connect. What am i doing wrong. Thanks for quick response

[djmastermind]

If the server and the Source (WinAmp) are on the same machine, put localhost in the address box.

Try this and tell me if you receive any errors in the DNAS (server) log.

[djmastermind]

No.. you're broadcasting all over the internet. Make sure that your .pls is written correctly.. that your ip is right.

[edit]

Check out the results from a SHOUTcast forum search on '400 bad request'.

Look for the post by eth1k titled:
[yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave error (HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request)[/edit]

[LuckyStrike]

i just edited my above post...i got a new error now? can u check that out?

[djmastermind]

Are you on WindowsXP?

Are you on a router?

[LuckyStrike]

yes to both, winxp and a D link router

[djmastermind]

WindowsXP has a built in firewall that you'll have to disable. Try a forum search on how to do so.

[djmastermind]

You'll need to open port 8000 since that's the port that you're broadcasting through (unless you changed the portbase from default).

[LuckyStrike]

i opened port 8000 too. it still doesnt work

[djmastermind]

I don't know anything about d-link routers, .. but try opening 8000~8001.

[LuckyStrike]

YES that is all that comes up in the server window

[LuckyStrike]

Ive been searching and cant find anything that resembles my problem . thats all i get in my log and it appears as if there are no errors so it should work fine, but it does not. Can i get some help. ?

[LuckyStrike]

66.91.240.32:8000 is Closed
I did that test thing and got this :

Reason Given: Connection timed out
More about this error: This means that you are most likely behind a firewall, this error esentially says that you and your computer aren't there. You might also check to be sure that your ip is 66.91.240.32, if it is not then you are behind some sort of proxy.

[djmastermind]

http://www.whatismyip.com

A firewall might just be the reason that your stream is not being sent out.

[LuckyStrike]

Your IP is xx.xx.xxx.xx (the same one as above)

Thats what i put into the files when i configured it

[LuckyStrike]

ok played around with it a lil and got this log with error from b4 again:

BTW:: I opened ports 8000-8001 liek u said.

2. If you have a router, configure it to forward the necessary port(s) to the DNAS machine.

Could someone clarify more about this / how to do it etc. I OPENED the ports 8000-8001 on my router...i dont know if its the same thing?

[djmastermind]

Are you on a router?

Are you running on WindowsXP?

[LuckyStrike]

YES u already asked. Yes, my XP firewll is NOT enableD and YES i have openeded the ports 8000-8001 on my router like u said?

COULD u clarify what you mean by this::

If you have a router, configure it to forward the necessary port(s) to the DNAS machine.

thansk!

[djmastermind]

Oh, I'm sorry. I go rather mindlessly through these threads sometimes.

It means that you need to forward the ports through your router to the computer that's hosting the DNAS (server). You said that you already forwarded 8000~8001, though, so as long as you did that properly, all should be good.

What company router do you have?

[LuckyStrike]

D LINK DI-704P Router

I dont really know what you mean by forward....All I did was "Enable" them see screen shot below



hope this helps. been trying to get it to work all day! lol

[LuckyStrike]

mabye its the .150 i put in? does it need to be something else? tahts what it was for all the other ports i had opened for other things so i imagined it would be the same?

[LuckyStrike]

bump^ ? i know u guys are swarmed with questions from nOOOOb;s like me but im really new to tthis stuff and cant figrue out what im doing rong. and yes, i have read everything about the routers in that post.

can someone please help me out here?

[LuckyStrike]

helllo?

[LuckyStrike]

can someone tell me what im doing wrong?

[djmastermind]

No, you wouldn't put .150 in the box. 150 is correct as long as that's your correct LAN IP.

I don't know what to do and I apologize for that, but please wait patiently for someone that does know.

[LuckyStrike]

is there someone you could refer me to talk to that would know what i need to put there?

[djmastermind]

Someone will come along the forums.. Most people do not like you PMing them technical support questions.
