Hello

I installed flash media server on 2003 without any issues and it worked fine.  I just tried to install on windows 2008 enterprise and the program installs. but I can not connect using the encoder.

It may be a permissions issue - any suggestions?

Thanks

Sean

Hi,

The following might be the possible reasons :

You need admin privileges to start/stop the services. Please confirm if the services are started.

Check the windows event logger to see if there are any errors. If there are errors related to the start of fms services, you might be missing the correct windows 2005/2008 VC ++ redistributables. Please download both the 2005 and 2008 (SP1 included) and try again.

Please let us know if the above information helped you. Thank you !

I figured out the issue -  Windows firewall was blocking the encoder.  I needed to allow inbound connections under the public profile.

Thanks

Cool, always good to know that you are unblocked.
