similar to: too many open files again

My icecast server has been running happily for months now, but just yesterday it locked up, chewing up all the cpu time it could find, and not allowing connections. The last snippet of the error log shows this: [2005-06-01 09:36:13] WARN connection/_accept_connection accept() failed with error 24: Too many open files [2005-06-01 09:36:15] WARN connection/_accept_connection accept() failed

I'm using ezstream-0.1.2 KJ -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Joel Ebel [mailto:jbebel@ncsu.edu] Verzonden: donderdag 3 februari 2005 21:05 Aan: Klaas Jan Wierenga Onderwerp: Re: [Icecast] Stream drops during handoff. Suggestions? Thanks. I'll have to try that. I wonder why ezstream would ever stop sending data for that long though. What version of ezstream are you running? Joel

Out of necessity, a friend of mine and I have created a patch for syslinux to allow it to modify the mbr and partition table in windows. It adds a -m option to syslinux. If given, it will overwrite the MBR of the drive specified with the mbr.bin provided in syslinux, and if the bootable flag is not set on the partition being syslinuxed, it will set it. This was done to distribute with my USB

Well, I see ezstream 0.2.0 is downloadable, so I downloaded it and tried to compile. Unfortunately it won't compile for me. The configure script runs fine. Here's the output of make. Joel make all-recursive make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jbebel/ezstream-0.2.0' Making all in src make[2]: Entering directory `/home/jbebel/ezstream-0.2.0/src' source='ezstream.c'

yup runned it. probably something wrong with my initrd filesystem. can you send me a directory listing of your initrd? and probably a sample linuxrc. if worse comes to worse, i'll probably load my usb and scsi modules in the initrd. i'm probably doing it all wrong. i'm trying to imitate the slackware10usb way of booting up. every driver built in the kernel, patch on the mounting root

Two quick questions: 1. Is it ok to use the same password file for multiple mountpoints, or will that cause problems? 2. Why would my clients number 113 larger than my number of listeners? It was right earlier today, but when I restarted the sources it increased by 113, and it has stayed that high since then. I find it especially odd since I have clients set to 100 in icecast.xml, and

Ok, this bug has been identified, logged, and fixed in SVN. We will be most likely building an RC3 in short order... oddsock At 03:43 PM 9/9/2005, Joel Ebel wrote: >Playing around with it some, it seems to be related to the web >interface.

MPlayer was a good suggestion. I've been using it for days now without a hitch. I normally just think of it as a movie player, but it seems quite good at playing ogg streams too. It's a slightly larger and more complicated program than I would prefer for the simple task of playing ogg streams. I guess I'd just rather ogg123 work right. But nonetheless, mplayer seems quite

I'm building a custom bootdisk that I would like to boot linux or boot memtest86 (www.memtest86.com). And I'm running into some difficulties with recent versions of syslinux. All I'm doing is making a new label in syslinux.cfg called memtest and giving it kernel memtest.bin. This has worked on and off for several recent versions of memtest. It worked in 1.67, broke in 1.70(loads

What is the limiting factor in the number labels allowed for pxelinux and others? We're maxed out at 128 and could certainly stand to use more labels. What would it take to increase this limit? Thanks, Joel Ebel

I have three questions. If these are not currently possible, consider it a feature request: 1. Is it possible to create label aliases, such that one label will simply use the configuration of another, without having to completely copy the configuration. It would also be great if these aliases could cross INCLUDE boundaries, such that a label can call a label defined in an included file.

Due to a large number of targets, I'm working on a menu based PXE system to ease finding the difficult to remember obscure labels. I'd like to split these up into separate menus, and thus in multiple configuration files. However, in doing this, I don't want to sacrifice the ability to type in any label at the main boot prompt, but I also dont' want to maintain duplicate

I discovered an interesting problem with ezstream. I'm using version 1.2. I see 2 is listed on the website but appears to be a broken link. Otherwise I'd try it to see if it exhibits the same problem. I'm using ezstream as a fallback mount for a radio station. It plays a 30 second ogg file over and over. The ogg file is just a 5 second message with 25 seconds of silence

Got to minimize (barely) my filesystem and kernel and fit it into my usb key (256mb) My kernel was compiles with scsi and usb support built-in. My problem now is i can't mount my root filesystem when i tried to boot. kernel somehow takes time before being able to recognize my usb as a valid scsi device thus displaying VFS: Cannot open root device 08:01 this is my lilo.conf boot=/dev/sda
