Technically I'm trying to start this live broadcasting show throw the free application called "Adobe Flash Media Encoder 3.2", but to start this I would need a serve to start everything. So I decided to experiment with your wonderful "Flash Media Serve 4 :Dev version," before I buy the full version for massive scale of use( to stream live camera.) , but I ran into a problem when I'm in the log in screen console. I can asure you that I typed everything correct from the installation sequence and Im also fallowing this tutorial (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/beginner_installing_fm3.html) when I ran into the login screen this is what I find : an error message saying "Log in attempt has failed. Please verify your log in information and try again." So that's what I technically do and I get the same message every single time I try. Since I know my password and my username really good , I know im not wrong. But my attempt with server address simes to be the problem. So you guy can know what I'm typing on that text box I type "localhost" without the "". I really need help , I want to say thanks In advanced to everyone that replies.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the information. I doubt the services didn't start at all.


    You need to check the FMS logs @ FMS installation directory\logs folder, and this install directory is by default c:\program files\adobe\flash media server.

    If you are using Windows 7, you need to start the services from running as admin. Open a command prompt with admin privileges and then start the fms services as below :

    net start fms

    net start fmsadmin

    You then now must be able to login.

    Hi,


    Thanks for using FMS and FMLE..

    For me, the best way to go about these kind of issues to see at the logs first. Find out logs if there is anything thats mentioned regarding blocked/failed/non-started  services or ports etc.

    Did your FMLE connect to FMS ? I am just looking at if the FMS and the FMS admin service has actually started. The logs would show this also.

    localhost in the admin console is the right way to give, try giving IP also.

    Thanks, Ill try to look for any logs , and no I never connected FMS and FMLE together since I'm trying to do and learn everything with FMS first then I  would try that to see if it would work. ....

    (Sometime later )

    Well I checked every where for any errors or log, I even checked my router log and nothing. I can really say that I can't connect since , when I'm at the console I keep getting those messages I press ignore and I get put on the next window were I supposed to be managing everything the light on the corner is red and from there I still cant log in. I also tried giving my ip both 192.168.1.1 with the :1111 no work then I tried my public ip: AA.AAA.AAA.AAA with  and without :1111 and i still get the same faith.

    But can you suggest some place to find any other connection logs that I might have missed? because I only found 1.
