Hi!

It seems that I have a problem with disconnected sources due to a socket timeout when it is crowded on our icecast server.
Before we had a problem with a limitation on open files, but since that has been solved we get this problem. It seems to appear when there are around 1400 to 1500 clients connected, mainly in the morning. The rest of the day we normally don't see this and when it is less crowdy in the morning this problem also doesn't occur.
It is defenately not due the fact that there is no bandwidth, because we do have a 1Gbit up and download link.

We are running icecast 2.3.2 on a Debian Linux server.
The socket-timeout is set to 20 seconds.
Does somebody know some reasons why this can occur and where we can look at?

Below a part of the error-log in which the disconnects occurs.
A bit later, also the other source will disconnect due to the same problem and after that, the encoders will connect again.
Thanks in advance and best regards,

Harreld.

The process does not crash, just that the sources drop with a timeout? The only time I've seen this sort of effect is with people on BSD where the mbufs settings are not enough and that causes all sorts of weird effects. As it's debian you don't have that issue but do check the system log files as something else may be apparent.
