'Connection Error' Sample RTMP video used to work, now no longer works?!

Hello All,
I had FMS 3.5 developer package installed on my server installed about a month ago. I used to be able to go to the /webroot/ page to see the sample RTMP video play and it worked great. Today, I go to view that page and find that it no longer plays. I get "Connection Error. Please preee Play to try again."
Pressing the play button does nothing, so I click the RTMP thumbnail and it reloads ony to give me that same error again.
I can click the HTTP thumbnail and see the video play just fine. But, I want RTMP and after over an hour on the phone with my managed hosting tech, we can't find anything wrong.
Here's the thing: I haven't done anything, I have not changed anything, I have not manipulated the server software whatsoever. It just stopped working and gives me "Connection Error."
I checked that port 1935 was open, and it is.
UPDATED:
When I click on the RTMP thumbnail, after the 'Connection Error' message comes up in the player, the following things happen in my server's error log:
"File does not exist: /folder/folder/folder/fcs"
"File does not exist: /folder/folder/folder/open"
The corresponding IP is my own.
The /folder/folder/folder/ corresponds to my public_http folder and related file structure for the website, NOT the RTMP server. I have no idea why the F
MS is looking in my public_http for fcs and open, but it is.
Thoughts?
Please help? Many thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
wordman

SE,
I'm logged on using PuTTY, my server is Linux and I did in fact get to view the log files.
I realize the sample page ought to be discarded as a concern, but I was hoping I might learn something from this.
I don't have the knowledge to try another RTMP player/client, I am brand new to this. I have Flash CS4 Professional, but I need to learn what to do to build a .SWF to play a sample file.
As for player development, I have been doing research on which might be best for me. In the short term I just need a basic player. In the long term, a player with insertable banners (for in-house promotion and identifiaction, not for ads) and a chat function. The banners may not be necessary as I want the player to be located in a stand-alone page as opposed to a pop-up, so I can do banners in the page itself.
I have looked into REOPS and Strobe, but the tech is written in engineer-speak so most of it is zooming right over my head. I'm self-taught with PHP so I know this all can't be THAT difficult. The jumping-off point is hard to find though. I need something in human-speak that's a wee easier to understand. A basic player would be lovely right now. I don't even care about skinning, just colors.
Using the command to check if FMS is running leaves me with 4 lines of info: 5-digit number, ? 00:00:00 fmsmaster (fmsedge, fmscore, fmsadmin)
Does that mean it isn't running? If so, what can I do to restart it and worse, why would it have stopped?
Thanks for your help!
Sincerely,
wordman

    When you click the download link on [http://getfirefox.com GetFirefox.com], you should be asked if you wish to Run or Save the file. If the described situation happens when trying to Run the download, try instead to Save it and put the file on your Desktop or a similar place where you are certain that you can find it again.
    When the download is complete, try double-clicking the downloaded file in the normal Windows Explorer (browse your way to the file from My Computer). This should start the installation.
    If you notice in the Explorer window that the file seems to be lacking the Firefox orange/blue icon, rightclick the file and select Properties. The picture should look somewhat like the attached picture (except that mine's in danish, but that is irrelevant) if saved correctly - if it does NOT look like this, please describe the contents or attach a screenshot of the box. Especially what it says under "File type" - it should be "Program"; if it's not, we'll have to look into what the problem could be here.
    Slightly off-topic, your Internet Explorer seems to be quite a bit out of date (IE 6, where current version is IE 8), so I would strongly recommend that you try to run Windows Update to get your system updated. If this is a company system (like a Terminal Server thin client machine), this may not be possible, and your system administrator will most likely have to help you.

    Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
    Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
    Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

    I have updated to Mozilla 16.0.1 and yahoo toolbar 2.4.8.20120412011105. Search assist now no longer works on the toolbar, nor does the enter key. I've reinstalled both Mozilla and the yahoo toolbar. I've followed the instructions given in the customize toolbar section, but I am thinking that perhaps this toolbar just doesn't work with Mozilla?

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''

    I have updated to ios 7 and Microsoft outlook web access for work emails no longer works nor my remote access can you help

    This happened to me as well. I read somewhere else that resetting the network settings (General, Reset, Reset Network Settings) would help and it partially did. I get half (the folders) of the Web Access screen rather than a blank screen. I tried tihs a few more times and got the right half (the messages) on occasion but never the whole web page.

  • "Connection error" while playing video file ?

    Hello,
    I have created a project in Captivate 5.5, Integrated a Video in it, Its working fine when both are in same folder. Now I changed the video url to http://mysite.com?q=filename, I see player shows "Loading..." some time then shows "Connection error", I checked it with http sniffer, video downloaded successfully but can't play in it.
    So please let me know is it bug or any workarround to solve it.
    I think query paramaters are not working in Video URL.
    Thanks in advance,
    Laxmilal Menaria    

    OK.  What might be happening here is that Captivate expects the URL to be in a particular format and it could be that the way your URL is structured is not compatible with what Captivate expects.
    Take a look at this blog post from the Adobe blogs:http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2011/03/workaround-for-video-streaming-issues-in-captivat e.html
    It might give you some pointers about the way that the URL needs to be set up.

  • Database Connection error in Crystal Reports using SAP BW system

    Hi,
    While using Crystal Reports in trying to build a report on the SAP Query in SAP/BW System using the MDX driver, I am able to get the structure of the query fields into the report but on the other hand while trying to refresh the report for data I am getting the error message u201C Failed to connect to the databaseu201D . This database  connection error occurs despite the fact that the SAP server authentication details being entered on Refreshing the report is correct.
    What could be the possible reason? Any guess...
    Thanks,
    Amogh

    Hi,
    Yes, I am using the MDX driver. 
    Is there any pre-requisites of importing certain ABAP transports into SAP Server since I haven't done any? Please  recommend.
    Thanks,

  • Mail search using e-mail addresses not longer works after 10.6 update?

    I just updated to 10.6 from 10.5. I have also added all the software updates.
    The search function no longer works for e-mail addresses. I used to right-click on an address, copy and paste in search. Now, when I do that, it lists like this : NAME <[email protected]> (sample info) instead of just the e-mail address. In this new form, the search function no longer functions. Is there a way to revert to the old way mail copies e-mail address?
    I do not want to have to delet ethe name & out of each paste.
    input greatly appreciated!

    Perfect! Works like a charm.
    For others looking for the fix.
    In 10.6, it seems someone at Apple decided that Copy Address should really mean Copy Name And Address And Add Angle Brackets Around The Address, because that's exactly what happens when you use Copy Address in Snow Leopard's Mail app. Instead of getting [email protected] on the clipboard, you get Sue Sample <[email protected]>.
    Besides now having an incorrect name on the Copy Address contextual menu item (thought admittedly, the alternative is a bit lengthy), this behavior is incredibly irritating if you want only the email address on the clipboard. Thankfully, some engineer somewhere deep within Apple included a hidden preference to change this behavior -- and the fine folks at Mac Daddy World (the Ecamm Network blog site) dug deep and discovered this preference.
    To revert to the 10.5-style behavior in Mail, first quit Mail then enter this command in Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.mail AddressesIncludeNameOnPasteboard -bool NO

  • Video post processing/quality control no longer works in flash player

    I use to watch videos via http://www.channel5.com and was able to use the post processing features in the AMD driver to improve the picture quality.
    Now, it no longer works. Is this because hardware acceleration isn't working?
    For a while I was able to use it in Internet Explorer, Sometimes in Firefox but never in Chrome. Now even with internet explorer it doesn't seem to work correctly.
    I am using the latest flash versions for all platforms and the latest browser and driver version from AMD too.
    Has Adobe changed something with the latest version of flash which cause a problem with the AMD Driver? Why is there no longer a Hardware Acceleration check-box in Internet Explorer?
    I am using Windows 8.1 and I have the setting in the AMD CCC "apply current vdieo quality settings to internet video" checked. I have made sure in Firefox and Chrome hardware acceleration is enabled both in flash player settings and in the browser settings.
    Thanks for any pointers you can give.

    It may be for you, but it isn't for me in Internet Explorer, by comparison though, there is the box available in Chrome and Firefox...although in Chrome it doesn't do anything.
    I did some more testing; With Internet Explorer hardware acceleration seems to be dependant on the website you watch.
    For example, using IE to visit http://www.dailymotion.com the post processing options work fine, but when on http://www.channel5.com they do not. Is there any reason why this is?
    As for other browsers, it seems hardware acceleration just isn't working at all since post processing never works on chrome.
    On Firefox it seems to behave the same way as IE, e.g it works on some sites but not others.
    I thought I may be able to get around this by disabling the pepper flash player in chrome, but it doesn't seem to make any difference, either its still using the built-in one or it still doesn't work at all with hardware acceleration.
    Either way none of these achieve what I was able too before, get hardware acceleration working with http://www.channel5.com .

    I'll assume you are on vista and refering to this:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb408524&sliceId=1
    It's the top link in the creative suite forums... I know this why? because I just had the same issue and it took forever to figure out it was posted right up top. That said I did follow all the instructions and now everything is working fine. Be prepared though as the steps you need to take are basically.. change some rights in windows and then uninstall your suite and re-install it again. I can say it works though.. Good luck.
