Hi all:
OK, this is one of those "why doesn't it work" type questions.
I'm
basically stumped. All the server info in the xml file and example.c seem
to match, but it's coming back with an error 3 which is no login (as far
as I can understand). There's nothing in the icecast2 logs to show that
an attempt has been made.
hmmm. It just occured to me that perhaps it's linking in the wrong version
of libshout. I'm no C programmer so I don't know how to tell. My
makefile looks like this:
all: example
example: example.c
$(CC) -o example example.c -L../src -lshout -L../../log -logg -lvorbis
The question being, is it getting libshout from ../src or from /usr/lib?
Assuming that's all correct, the only thing I can think of is that either
my config and example.c do not agree, and/or one contains some sort of
syntax error. I include both below.
A couple of other questions. I know there was some discussion as to the
correct syntax for using the example program. Is it indeed `cat foo.ogg
|./example` as posted on i.cantcode.com, or is this no longer correct?
Also, I'm guessing that the mount has to be in the form "/foo.ogg"
in
order to work. Is this correct?
Thanks,
Geoff.

long read, ret, total;
shout_init_connection(&conn);
conn.ip = "129.100.109.31";
conn.port = 9000;
conn.password = "audio";
conn.mount = "/test.ogg";
if (shout_connect(&conn)) {
printf("Connected to server...\n");
total = 0;
while (1) {
read = fread(buff, 1, 4096, stdin);
total = total + read;
if (read > 0) {
ret = shout_send_data(&conn, buff, read);
if (!ret) {
printf("DEBUG: Send error:

break;
}
} else {
break;
}
shout_sleep(&conn);
}
} else {
printf("Couldn't connect...%i\n", conn.error);
}
shout_disconnect(&conn);
return 0;
}

I'lll give it a shot.> Your config files look fine. Are you sure you're telling icecast to use > this file?Oh yes. If I'm sure of nothing else, I'm sure of this. Since I'm running as a user on someone else's system, it complains a lot if I don't (can't open /usr/local/icecast bla bla bla). And the XML is displayed by the server upon startup, or in my case, is written to nohup.out.> Nothing else comes to mind.Lets hope it's the libs then.> Once you get this working, you might also like to try ices2, which now > does most of what it needs to for an initial release (apart from some > more extension playlist stuff) - it works well (at least for me).

I'll probably try ices on my own system, but the server needs to be where the bandwidth is. Where is ices2 living, is it icecast CVS or bitkeeper?

Delete the libshout.so file from /usr/lib and recompile. It should work now. Or if you have redhat, rpm -e libshout-devel might work.> Assuming that's all correct, the only thing I can think of is that either > my config and example.c do not agree, and/or one contains some sort of > syntax error.

Is this correct?Usage is correct. The mount can be whatever you want, but if it doesn't end with .ogg, many current players (xmms, winamp at least, probably others) won't play it (they try to decode it as mp3). Your config files look fine. Are you sure you're telling icecast to use this file? Nothing else comes to mind. Once you get this working, you might also like to try ices2, which now does most of what it needs to for an initial release (apart from some more extension playlist stuff) - it works well (at least for me). It even has an (untested) oss input module for live encoding from line-in.

I don't have a libshout.a. I have libshout.la which it didn't recognise, and shout.lo which resulted in a host of undefined references. So I guess I don't have a static lib. So How do I compile one, and is this what I want anyway?
