Question

FMS rejects connections after entering in our serial number

Hello All:

Unfortunately after working for weeks to configure the FMS so it works for our hosting clients, and verifying that it's working properly, after finally purchasing the license and entering it it promptly starts rejecting connections.

We purchased a Streaming Server license vs. an Interactive Server license.

We're not using any special functionality which I'm aware of which would make the downgrade from the "Development" server to the Streaming Server at all necessary. We're only serving up videos. Nothing fancy.

To clarify: what DOES work is using the _defaultRoot_ / _defaultVhost_ / vod ... but none of the other vhosts I've defined work!

Example output from fmscheck for a host using the _defaultVhost_ :

#Version 1.0.0 r15 
#2009-04-14 12:56:37
#Software: Adobe Flash Media Server Check 1.0.0 r15 
#2009-04-14
#Fields: date    time        x-event                      x-sname
2009-04-14     12:56:37     Connect                     rtmp://WEBSITE_USING_DEFAULTVHOST.com:1935/vod
2009-04-14     12:56:37     NetConnection.Connect.Success      Connection succeeded.
2009-04-14     12:56:37     Success                     StreamCreated
2009-04-14     12:56:37     Success                     StreamCreated
2009-04-14     12:56:37     NetStream.Play.Reset           Playing and resetting sample.
2009-04-14     12:56:37     NetStream.Play.Start           Started playing sample.
2009-04-14     12:56:37     NetStream.Data.Start           -
2009-04-14     12:56:37     NetStream.Play.Stop           Stopped playing sample.
2009-04-14     12:56:37     Program complete successful      -

Example output from fmscheck for a host using a specially defined  Vhost:

#Version 1.0.0 r15 
#2009-04-14 13:01:34
#Software: Adobe Flash Media Server Check 1.0.0 r15 
#2009-04-14
#Fields: date    time        x-event                      x-sname
2009-04-14     13:01:34     Connect                     rtmp://DEFINED_VHOST.com:1935/whatever
2009-04-14     13:01:34     NetConnection.Connect.Rejected      [ Server.Reject ] : Rejecting connection from rtmp://DEFINED_VHOST.com:1935/whatever to rtmp://DEFINED_VHOST.com:1935/whatever.
2009-04-14     13:01:34     Connection fail

all Vhosts are in the _defaultRoot_

each Vhost has had its application folder defined in a unique location


Furthermore on the browser side I get a "security certificate mismatch error".

    I assume that you have a Flash Media Streaming Server License (FMSS) which doesn't support multiple VHosts. Check in the core00.log/core.log file for an error message.

    For multiple VHosts Flash Media Interactive Server is the one suitable. However,Development version is nothing but a FMIS limited to 10 simultaneous connections.

    I have read that the FMSS cannot support multiple adaptors, but have read NO INDICATION ANYWHERE that it cannot support multiple Vhosts.

    Would you please provide documentation to back up your comment?

    Also I looked in the core.00.log and saw no message about multiple Vhosts being a problem. I did see other error messages of course. If you could help explain what I should be looking for in the log file then that would be interesting.

    Thank you.
