When you get this error message, further details are available in the icecast error log, unless you've disabled error logging. If you've disabled error logging, then re-enable it. Then you'll be able to read the log file. Mike On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 8:33 PM, Luis Barrett <getpaid00 at gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > We try the config that you gave us and still we our
