Server not found: rtmpt://xxxx.xxxx.xxxx:80/vod

Hi!

I am using JWPlayer with FMS 4.5 on Window Server 2003. I have used Apache as webserver.

I have continuously received client reports, saying that when they are streaming video, occasionally the streaming fail and receive the following error message on the player:

"Server not found: rtmpt://xxxx.xxxx.xxxx:80/vod"

Our original design is to use rtmp with port 1935 for streaming only; at the same time since Apache is default bind to port 80, thus in the fms.ini, we have set the "ADAPTOR.HOSTPORT" to "1935" instead of the default setting "1935,80".

However, the aforementioned problem occur occasionally. According to the client, restarting the streaming server firewall rule can temporarily fix the issue, but later the problem reappear and they are now seeking a permanent method to end this problem.

Could anyone help me on it?

Thanks so much!!!

Hi,

When the error occurs, it is likely that the client's firewall is blocking the connection on port 80. At that time, try to do a 'telnet <ServerName> 80' to check if communication on that port is happening.

Thanks,

Shiven

Thanks for your help Shiven,

I have telnet through port 80 and it works.

According to the client, port 80 is always opened, unfortunately, the error still occur.

Have you encountered similar case before?

Thanks a lot.
