So the port, is that through your webhost, or the audio stream company?
I'm using hostgator as my host, and midweststreaming for the audio server.

I've been using the ip/port provided to me by the audio server. Is that right?

It works fine on 3.6.7

I have the same problem with "station down" . reason for that was blocked port on my webhost.

[dmyre]

So, your webhost (where VB is installed) was blocking the port to your audio server (where shoutcast is broadcast)? If that's the case, I may just need to contact my regular host...

[citroenar]

Si I did. I ask them to open ports 8000 and 1221.

is the scast_home.xml file supposed to be 0 bytes when uploaded from install package?

[yaoren]

Ok I installed this hack a while ago and found out my hosting company wouldn't allow it...so I switched to one that would. I've read through the threads posted here and I'm still unable to get it to work correctly. Yes my hosting company has checked the ports and they're all open. I've tried chmod 777 and or 666 and still nothing. I'm also pretty sure that I installed the mod correctly but it still says server down on my forum. We are connected and streaming but it's still not working on the forums. Any ideas as to what else I could try since I really want to have this mod running on my forum.

Output congfig address is 127.0.0.1
Port 8000

Oh I'm also running VB 3.6.7 PL1

[benjaminbih]
