I've got a e-mail notification problem since i upgraded from Plesk 11.5 to Plesk 12: One specific Application Update for customer X is being sent to all my customers.
Last week we did have a problem with a busted customer portal. ( not customer X, plus still on Plesk 11.5 ) I fixed this by using this procedure: [URL] ..... Restored two records and problem solved.
As a temporary resolution we disabled Application Updates for our customers, but I do want that my customers receive Application Updates, but just the one where they are the recipient.
I bought a VPS a few days ago and I'm trying to run a SHOUTcast on it.
The VPS is Linux, CentOs to be more specific.
I've installed Shoutcast and it's running, It's working with WinAmp as the website I'm running it on tells me what song is currently playing, how many listeners there are, etc.
It also says:
Server Status: Server is currently up and public.
Im trying to install shoutcast to my vps so i can sell them now I have downloaded linux script from shoutcast.com

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a windows server 2003 running shoutcast.
I have two questions:
1.) Is there a way to send signals via Windows? I need a way to have shoutcast reload it's configuration file without kicking the users. Normally, on *nix, you could just send the kill -s SIGHUP command and it'd do it. But I can't figure out a way to do this on windows.
If this isn't possible, does anyone know if you can run shoutcast RELIABLY under cygwin?
2.) The LogFormat that shoutcast outputs looks like this:
Code:
c-ip c-dns date time cs-uri-stem c-status cs(User-Agent) sc-bytes x-duration avgbandwidth
the problem is that cs-uri-stem doesn't include cs-method ("GET") so AWStats fails with the import of the log. Is there a way to manually add this into the way AWStats parses it?
If not, is there a special way to parse shoutcast w3c logs in AWStats?
weve had a box at fdc for over a year. everything was fine until about half that time ago and consistently has gotten worse over time. We've always been really good at tracking down problems til now.
traceroute and ping results are usually pretty normal, the machine is not overloaded however our server can barely handle any amount of listeners anymore, in fact it appears as tho the number of listeners has no effect on the server skipping and buffering every few minutes.
we've changed the sources its been fed from
checked the connection from multiple locations
ping and trace results are always decent or shouldnt warrant skipping with any number listeners. in a year weve gone from consistently hosting 100+ to barely getting over 20 and often less lately. its a huge bummer.
Any one know of a better auto streaming program as I keep having trouble with my shoutcast server.
It constantly needs rebooted and has issues where people have trouble connecting.
First one i tried was Implux.net and after a year or so started getting a lot of skipping/buffering problems with the streams.
I'm now with Serverroom.us but cannot stand the software they use CentovaCast or at least don't like the setup they use.
i have a dedicated at datacenter. may i know how do i install shoucast from SSH?
View 5 Replies View RelatedMe and a few friends of mine are planing on creating a Shoutcast online radio station and honestly I'm new to how Shoutcast servers work and witch host would be best for me and my friends. I have a few questions on all this.
Am I suck using Winamp to play our music over the server? Or are there other more professional tools to use?
This server will be used among a few friends of mine. So if no one us broadcasting will the server play a song play list till some one starts broadcasting?
Shoutcast servers only Stream music to Winamp players only?
Anyone here got any experience with “rackedhosting.com” Shoutcast service?
i upgraded my server a few month back to a better one.
SINGLE XEON QUAD CORE 3210 / 1066FSB / 8MB CACHE
4GB DDR2
x2 500GB SATA 7200RPM (RAID-1)
50 Mbps Burst Speed
for what ever reason when i try to tune in to my radio it takes more than 10 seconds for the radio to start playing (specially on my port 8000). while other stations (competition) start right away.
my question is does it matter if i have my dns like this: [url]:8000 instead of [url]:8000 or do i have to look for something else not well configure?
i have many dedicated servers... but whats the recommend spec and internet speed and bandwidt for say 2000 listners at approx 80kbps each...

But seeing i was only testing i didn't care what IP it was on, n i stuck it on the main ip which i kinda don't want it there anymore?
So how do i remove/uninstall shoutcast?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've only tried whmsonic shoutcast admin pro to create sc accounts
I used whm to create cpanel hosting accounts before so had an idea.
With whmsonic admin pro i was a bit lost, creating cpanel hosting
accounts so i could ad those features to shoutcst accounts
But from what i've read, cast control is more straight to the point
You don't need to be creatings cpanel accounts first etc etc.
Is there others that any of you have on your servers for setting
up shoutcast accounts with hosting for uploading audio files ect
Autodj and so on.
There are somebody in the forums to find ShoutCast Host, but I do not understand what is ShoutCast Host.

View 12 Replies View Relatedi'm still not too sure how to put all this together,
And im starting to feel stressed out
I think i need a dedicated server with cpanel/whm installed on it
before i can install whmsonic and start selling radio streams with hosting right?
How much is this gonna set me back if i want to create a lot of accounts on one sever,
I am aware that you should only put so many accounts on one server.
I want to be able to offer the extras to the users so if they
are not using their account for live shows they can use the auto
dj features plus they'd have their web space for uploading audio.
And all the good stuff that comes with those features.
An example of what i'd like to offer is on sleepy engineers.
I just don't know if i have to get all this seperate and put it
on a dedicated server mysellf or if there's servers ready with
all this installed and ready to use.
And i don't have a lot of cash to start out
Im thinking 100$ per month to start with.
I like cast control's features, but i've only used whm/cpanel before, for setting up web hosting accounts.
Most reseller packages put me off it's never really my own service.
my current dedi server and want to configure shoutcast for the server. I have install the shoutcast located in /usr/local/shoutcast.
Just curious one of my customer would like to use the shoutcast so how can i create a user for them? should i install manually for each of my customer that want to host shoutcast?
if there's any host which has hosting & shoutcast included in the plan?
I currently don't have an estimate of how much gb etc. for hosting & kbs, listeners for shoutcast...
So just post all the hosts you know which have webhosting & has shoutcast INCLUDED
I am running shoutcast on a spare dedicated system, for some reason it has been buffering a little to often for my liking.
I am running 64 kbps for 300 listeners and buffering problems become frequent around 150 listeners.
Is there anyway I can reduce the frequent buffering (be it hardware or software doesnt matter).
Latency seems very high (1100ms)
Would the fact that the server has been running continuously for 6 days have anything to do with it?
