    People,

    I got it.

    If you have any firewall setup in your machine just disbable it or

    allow both TCP/UDP connection for your machine.

    UDP is the main port connectivity for rtmfp connection.

    In server stop the firewall or

    stop iptables "# service iptables stop"

    I think its helpful to you guys.

    Thank you

    Hi Suresh,

    Thanks for the update. But I think my case is not related to the firewall.

    As I mentioned I can successfully telnet to port 80,1935 and 1111. (Linux

    firewall was disabled. SELinux also disabled) The only thing is I cannot

    access the web interface.

    This is what I did to troubleshoot this issue,

    Checked Apache error logs for any errors.

    Noticed there is an error related to the computer name. So what I did

    was I renamed the Server name back to "localhost" and restarted all

    services (network and fms)

    Surprisingly the web interface came up.

    According to the documentation I uploaded some videos and they are

    working fine now.

    My next question is do you guys have any idea about this? Is there any

    way that I can change the Server name to any thing else? I doubt if you

    rename the Server then you may have to update a configuration file. May

    be Apache or some thing else.

    Thank you.

    Try this

    # vi /etc/hosts or open the file using winSCP

    and change the hostname

    Thank you for the post. I also get the same issue. I installed Adobe Flash media Streaming Server 4.5 on Red Hat EL 5.5 and it didn't work. But still you can telnet to port 80,1935 and 1111, meaning those ports are open in the Server. Just ran the basic setup on Windows and it works perfectly. I don't know how to troubleshoot this. Looks like this is an application related configuration problem.

    Hi,

    Thanks for trying out FMS. Can you please try to disable any firewall (and SELinux) to see if the FMS is able to connect ?

    January 5, 2012

    Hi Nikhil,

    Appreciate your reply.

    Both Firewall and the SELinux are disabled. But still cannot access the FMS

    Server using http://ip-address. Windows installation works perfectly. But

    still I can Telnet to port 80,1935 and 111 in the Linux installation. This

    is weird. I don't know why the only the Linux setup is not working. Any

    idea that I need to change any configuration in the Linux setup? Here is

    the Linux version I've installed,

    Re: Cannot connect to FMS 4 using rtmfp# uname -a

    Linux GSMedia 2.6.18-274.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Nov 8 21:37:35 EST 2011 x86_64

    x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    Re: Cannot connect to FMS 4 using rtmfp# cat /proc/version
