Icecast Streaming Media Server

[Anonymous]

I just installed Icecast and ices 2.3.1 on my Ubuntu server. I can play the first song no problem but then it dies.

This is the error in ices.log:

The check was added into ices at a time when icecast couldn't handle it properly, but now icecast rebuilds the stream so you should be able to remove that check.

You can comment out/remove the if-block check in ices/src/im_playlist.c from line ~169

if (ogg_page_serialno (&og) .....
{
...
}

I had it installed as a package. I removed it and downloaded and modified the source but I am having difficulty getting it installed this way(it gives me an error: "configure: error: XML configuration could not be found" and I cannot start it).

I am going to try MuSE or something which is unfortunate as ices seemed perfect except for the serial thing. Is there another that is as easy perhaps?

[karlH]

if you compile an application then you need to install the dependencies, based on the error mentioned I guess you are missing the libxml2-devel package.

I got it to work. I removed the if statement and I installed libxml2 like you suggested and had to reinstall libshout.

Thanks
