Hi all,

i can´t wright a long story abought my Problem because of my bad english.
But i try my best.
Ok the point is i´d like to have an Password managed mountpoint.
I followd the readme and the docu.

Everything seams to work but when i try to ad an User i get following message:

User add failed - check the icecast error log

and the log says:
Code:
WARN auth_htpasswd/htpasswd_recheckfile failed to check status of myauth
WARN auth_htpasswd/htpasswd_adduser Failed to open authentication database "myauth": Permission denied


I rearly have no idea what thats means.

Thx in atvance
Regards Lord

If this were a bug report, it should go to our bug tracking system at http://bugs.xiph.org/ (bug reports here will be ignored)

However, it's not - there's no bug, just a configuration error. You probably wanted to ask this in the general support forum.

This means that the user icecast is running as is unable to write to or read from the authentication database. You need to fix the permissions on this file.

Ok i got it work.

Aktually i´d like to help other users if they have the same Problem.

Code:

<mount>
        <mount-name>/radio</mount-name>

        <password>hackmemore</password>

        <max-listeners>upt to u</max-listeners>
    <!--
        <dump-file>/tmp/dump-example1.ogg</dump-file>
        <burst-size>65536</burst-size>
        <fallback-mount>/example2.ogg</fallback-mount>
        <fallback-override>1</fallback-override>
        <fallback-when-full>1</fallback-when-full>
        <intro></intro>
    -->
        <hidden>0</hidden>
        <no-yp>1</no-yp>
        <authentication type="htpasswd">
                <option name="filename" value="/home/icecast/password/password"/><!-- Thats the absolute path to the password file the last password is the name of the file. Install the direktory and chown to the User under icecast is running later. Also make the password File (i named it pasword here) chown it to the right user and make it writeable.
-->
                <option name="allow_duplicate_users" value="1"/>
        </authentication><!--
        <on-connect>/home/icecast/bin/stream-start</on-connect>
        <on-disconnect>/home/icecast/bin/stream-stop</on-disconnect>
   -->
    </mount>

Only like this it was working and no more error message was shown.

Regards Lord
