HELP !! I Install the hack and I am always off line


CHMOD 666 scast_home.xml
- This file should be in the root of the forums folder. ($vboptions[bburl])

/forums/scast_home.xml - The vBulletin install folder.

To put less load on the shoutcast server and to speed up page loads. The shoutcast info the script gets is cached to your local webserver in that XML file. The XML file is called up when a request to show the data. If your cache file does not update then you are not connecting to the shoutcast server.

9 out of 10 times this is because of settings (port,ip,password) or your webhost has blocked ports. Many hosts only allow queries for data on port 80 (http, rss, xml feeds). I have seen many webhosts designate a port for "other" needs of their clients.

If you are 100% sure your setting and install is correct.

Send a ticket to your webhost and see if ports are blocked (ie:8000). If so they may give you another port you can use. Reset your shoutcast server to output on that port. Lastly, if there is nothing that your host will do, you can move the shoutcast server to output on port 80 vs. 8000.
