Hi I am currently running Flash Media Server 2 running on a Windows 2003 SE server. According to the admin console Manage Servers > License > Professional Edition Licenses window I am running with a license set for 100 concurrent users unlimited bandwidth.

I need to know how to change this to 1000 concurrent users with 40Mbps cap! I have read various posts on this forum which suggest the below:

Change the fms.ini files licensing line as below:

SERVER.ACTIVE_PROFILE = 1000-40.pro (or 2500-25.pro or 150.pro)
SERVER.LICENSEINFO = FMD200-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

BUT my fms.ini file does not have reference to these licensing lines in it! see below:

###########################################################################
# fms.ini contains substitution variables for Flash Media Server #

# A substitution variable is in the form <name>=<value>. Everything up to #
# the first '=' is considered the name of the substitution variable, and #
# everything after the first '=' is considered the substitution value. If #
# you want a substitution variable to have leading or trailing spaces, #
# enclose the value around double quotes. For example, foo=" bar " #

# Password for server admin

# SERVER.ADMIN_PASSWORD = bar

SERVER.ADMIN_PASSWORD = xxxxxxxxxxx

# IP address and port Flash Media Admin Server should listen on
# For example:
# SERVER.ADMINSERVER_HOSTPORT = :1111
#
SERVER.ADMINSERVER_HOSTPORT = :1111

# User id in which to run the process (Linux Only)
# For example:
# SERVER.PROCESS_UID = 500
#
SERVER.PROCESS_UID =

# Group id in which to run the process (Linux Only)

# List of semi-colon delimited paths in which to search for script to load

# APP.JS_SCRIPTLIBPATH = C:\scripts;C:\Program Files\Macromedia\scripts
#
APP.JS_SCRIPTLIBPATH = C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash Media Server 2
\scriptlib

###############################################################
# This section contains configurable parameters in Logger.xml #
###############################################################

LOGGER.LOGDIR =

Is this the right file to make these chnages? Do I just add these lines to the bottom of the file? How do I change this setting as my server is currently dropping 1000's of sessions a day.

Thanks for your help,

Andy

Hi I have seen that there is an updater for release 2.0.1 is it possible for me to install 2.0.3. Is this a fresh install ? It does not have any install information like the updater which states that you should make copies of your application dir and conf dir as these will be deleted. Is this the case with the 2.0.3 Install?

Hi, Thanks for the reply how do I tell which build I have? If this is an earlier build how do I get updates?

Sorry to sound like a newbie but I am used to running windows media and real servers not Flash ones.

Thanks,

Andy

What build of FMS are your running? The license profiles weren't included in the first release. I think they were added in 2.0.2
