This tends to break in obscure ways, just as reverse-proxies. Icecast will happily listen on port 80 directly. There are people who claim that it isn't possible,

Hi All, I've recently upgraded my hosting to a VPS running CentOS. I'm trying to configure the VPS to launch Icecast as a service so that Icecast starts if the virtual server reboots, or Icecast stops running. I've found several scripts out there to place in my init.d folder, but nothing seems to work for me as of yet. Here is my Icecast2 setup: Location=/usr/local/bin

Here is the path, logging and security configuration in my icecast.xml file (below). I get the following error: Changed root successfully to "/opt/icecast/" Changed groupid to 504. Changed userid to 504. FATAL: could not open error logging FATAL: could not open access logging FATAL: could not start logging. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? icecast.xml: --------------

OK, took a crash course in systemctl. Got the service properly enabled. However, got one odd error when I started it. Mar 26 18:06:10 {my-FQDN} icecast[839]: ERROR: You should not run icecast2 as root Mar 26 18:06:10 {my-FQDN} icecast[839]: Use the changeowner directive in the config file The XML shows: <changeowner> <user>nobody</user> <group>nogroup</group>

Well, here's the whole output from systemctl. # systemctl status icecast -l icecast.service - Icecast Network Audio Streaming Server Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/icecast.service; enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2015-03-26 18:06:10 CET; 38min ago Process: 839 ExecStart=/usr/bin/icecast -c /etc/icecast.xml (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 839

Hello, I seem to have a problem getting icecast 2.0.0 to start.

Thanks for the superfast reaction. You got me started thinking. I got rid of the following lines number 3 and 8 hereunder. They were present in the example xml and I think that they don't belong here because icecast won't run if chroot is not being used........ Now it starts. I am very happy about this!!!! :-) JK 1 <security> 2 <chroot>0</chroot> 3

Hi, I'm newbie, and I'd like to ask you, how to set up ices-live for mp3 streaming? Or I am looking at bad place? Where is mp3 or ogg format selected?

I just installed Icecast2 and the installation was a sucess. However, when I go to startup Icecast. It's reply is: [root@linuxserver bin]# ./icecast -c /etc/icecast.xml WARNING: You should not run icecast2 as root Use the changeowner directive in the config file [root@linuxserver bin]# <p>So then I go into the icecast.xml and alter the changeowner User to admin. Here is a bit from my

sorry, for the dup email here... my first reply was composed as html... I think you should read 'man chown', it looks to me as though the first command you got from Fu Kite may have been a typo, unless there is something i don't know about putting a '.' between the user and group name in chown. i think what you wanted to do was (notice the colon): $ chown -R sphynx:sphynx

Me again.... After getting regular playlist streaming working, I'm not trying to complete the project and implement the live streaming. Unfortunately, due to the sad, lacking documentation for icecast and ices (especially what the xml tags in the configuration files actually DO and how they can be used), I've run into another snag that only you guys can help me out with. Here it goes.

my guess would be that the sphynx user does not have permission to write to the folder /var/log/icecast try running the following command: chown sphynx.sphynx /var/log/icecast then as root you can execute: icecast -c /usr/local/etc/icecast.xml The reason you can run the icecast command as root is because when you set <chroot>1</chroot> in the <security> section (which you

I have 2 icecast servers and neither will play music, 1 gentoo, the other ubuntu when connect to a mount and trying to broadcast via mixxx using both mp3 or ogg. Both will establish a stream feed but appears to have no sound. One of them won't even stream a ices2 mounted song either (same symptom, connect but no actual play occurs). Error logs are clean too, firewall is turned off on both

Hello,My name is Jacob.I'm from China. When I start "icecast -c /usr/local/etc/icecast.xml" command Some wrong message,i don't know how to deal it.

Hello. we are trying to setup some rebroadcast of live feeds with IceCast 2 and darkice server on dedicated machines. With some customers we have problems to get the the mp3 stream through fiorewalls on port 8000. If I reconfigure the IceCast 2 server on port 80 it cannot create a listener socket on port 80. There is definitly no service on port 80 running. Any suggestions are appreciated.

This may seem simple but I've looked all over and come up with nothing. I'm interested in running Icecast 1.3.12 on port 80 to get around the firewall issue. Obviously it's not prudent to run Icecast at root so I'm wondering is there any way to safely run Icecast on port 80 using either setuid or port redirection? Has anyone accomplished this and if so, how'd you do it?
