Question

play video (http) works, stream video (rtmp) does not; edge server not starting

However, I think the problem is the edge server not starting.

I looked in the logs directory and found the core log, the master log.

I also found /var/log/messages.

Shouldn't there be an edge log?

I did this from the readme:

sudo ./fmsmgr server fms start

udo ./fmsmgr adminserver start

    I expected to see the fmsedge binary.
    lsof doesn't show anybody listening on 1935 as I expected for an rtmp server.

    Hi,

    There will be an edge log in the logs folder, but only after the edge process has started. From the master logs you shared above, it is clear that the server is being aborted before the edge process is started, or the edge process start itself is failing. Are you sure that the ports are free on the machine to be used by FMS ? For testing purposes disable all firewalls/SELinux and other security settings to make sure the services are free to start.

    Which FMS version is being used here ?

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    The version is FMS_3_5_3_r824.

    I think you're right that the edge server is not starting.

    I wish I could determine what the command is so that I can see why it won't start.

    Can you tell me what the command is?

    I couldn't find it using strace or looking through the server script.

    I can listen on 1935 and 8000 with other programs so I don't think that is the problem.

    Yes, I stopped those other programs before attempting to start up FMS.

    I verified that they were not listening any more using lsof.

    Here is the master log snippet
