Flash media server stops accepting connection.
We have one application in which we are using flash media server 2.0.5. We dont know why it's stop taking connection occasionally at that time we can't enter into the managment console. We get a white screen. When we try to enter user name and password it's does not accpet the credentials. We are not getting anything in the log.
Port number 1935 and 1111 of the particular system where FMS has placed are working fine.
Does anybody have any idea why we are facing this problem?
That's a pretty old version, have you thought of upgrading?
There are a few reasons this could be happening. You could be reaching the limit for connections or bandwidth.
There could be a problem in your server side coding that is stalling the app.
There could be a problem with the service itself and it's maxing out on memory or CPU. I don't know why you are getting a white screen for anything, the management console has never been white for me and I suspect that it's more of a local computer problem unless it's the same computer you are running the service on..
Any more information on the license, server hardware or environment?

Flash Media Server Stops Streaming
We are running Flash Media Server version 2.0.3 r68. Lately,
for some reason FMS will simply stop serving content. When this
happens, the FMS service is running and there is nothing in the
logs indicating anything out of the ordinary. The only way to fix
the problem is to stop and restart the FMS service. After doing
this, FMS will work fine for several days before failing in exactly
the same way. Anyone have ideas what's going on or what will fix
this?It seems a bit strange that this behavior started happening
"lately". Did you install some other piece of software or patch
recently? What is the load on the server? (cpu, connections,
memory, etc..)
When you say it stops serving content, does this mean that
you are able to connect to the application instance, but just not
able to play content?
If this behavior keeps happening capture the process state
while it is hung (use adplus -hang option on windows) -
Updating Flash Media Server within Adobe Connect
We have recently had a security audit done and one of the highlighted issues was that the version of Flash Media Server on our Adobe Connect servers (4.0.3) is no longer supported and that the supported version is 4.5. We are currently running Adobe Connect 9.1.1 and I am due to upgrade to 9.3 soon. Will updating to 9.3 also update the version of Flash Media Server to 4.5 or higher? Alternatively is it ok to just apply Flash Media 4.5 or higher?
ThanksI don't believe that updating to 9.3 will update to FMS 4.5+. Connect is built on a version of FMS, and that usually doesn't change between full version releases.
The instance of FMS that is part of Connect is fully supported by Adobe as part of your Connect M&S. If there is a security issue that you have with it, outside of the version number, I would recommend that you bring those concerns up with Platinum Support to see if they apply, or are able to be resolved. -
Make server stop accepting connections for some condition
I have a server accepting connections from clients. We don't know in advance how many clients to accept so the server just keeps accepting connections in an infinite loop:
for( int i = 0; ; ++i)
server.accept();What needs to happen is some condition has occurred and the server should stop accepting connections. i.e.
for( int i = 0; stop_accepting_connections == false; ++i)
server.accept();
System.out.println( "No longer accepting connection.");Essentially some external event (actually the first accepted client thread) will set stop_accepting_connections to true and break the loop.
Problem is even when I break out of the loop clients are still accepted. I'm thinking this is caused by server.accept() being a blocking call and even though we've jumped out of the loop the last server.accept() call is still blocking and listening for a single client. I've tried 2 clients connecting when we've broken out of the loop and only the 1st one is accepted, the second just waits.
1. Is there any way to really stop listening when the condition is set (i.e. how to kill the last blocking accept())? I don't want 1 last trailing client.
2. For the rejected clients, how do I stop it from just waiting i.e. print some error msg and let it end?Problem is even when I break out of the loop clients are still accepted. I'm thinking this is caused by server.accept() being a blocking call and even though we've jumped out of the loop the last server.accept() call is still blocking and listening for a single client.No, it's caused by the TCP 'backlog' queue, which pre-accepts connections even before you call accept().
1. Is there any way to really stop listening when the condition is set (i.e. how to kill the last blocking accept())?Close the ServerSocket. The thread blocked in accept() will get a SocketException: socket closed, which you should trap and proceed acordingly on. At this point you probably just want to exit the accept() thread.
2. For the rejected clients, how do I stop it from just waiting i.e. print some error msg and let it end?See above. Any clients which are in the backlog queue will get some kind of SocketException or IOException, probably 'connection reset'. -
Flash Media Server stopped working
Hello All,
I am new to FMS and have been working on Flash Media Development Server.
My Setup:
I have a FMS and HTTP server on one machine A and all my swf's were kept there. I had one more machine B in a network, from which I was testing the swf's on Machine A.
Everything was running fine, until suddenly I could not access the swfs from Machine B.
Moreover, when i checked the Admin console in machine A, there was no client (referring Machine B) was connected to the FM Development Server.
What could have happened sosuddenly. In the swf that i tried connecting from Machine B, I debugged and found out that the swf was not able to connect to the FMS. (NetConnection.Connect.Failure)
Please help me.
ThanksThanks for replying Jay.
Yes, I am referring the Machine A with its IP and the IP is static (at times if it changes, i make the necessary changes), so that part is clear.
And as far as the network level changes, i wonder, because till yesterday everything was working perfectly alright with the same conditions. It just suddenly started responding weird.
I had only enabled some port forwarding in my router and had included a virtual directory in webroot.
however, when i reverted back to my original settings, even then the same code ceases to work.

Whether Sophos Antivirus can stop taking connection by Flash media server?
Hi
Our flash media server stops taking connection sometime. Any one have any idea about sophos antivirus?
Please suggest what should we do.
Thanks in advance.Thanks SE for the reply.
But i got a message "Connection to the Server Failed. Please try to rejoin the call".
We were not getting this problem before installation of anitvirus on our client machine. Now FMS gets down or we can say not accepting connection. Even at that time(server down condition) we can't enter into managment console of FMS. Sometime it start taking connection after one hour or two hour. -
FMLE not connecting to Flash Media Server
I have two laptops with windows 7 and FMLE 3.2 and FMS 4.5 in them. Laptop A is working perfectly with the default settings but i cannot connect to FMS with laptop B. I have tried turning windows firewall off, setting fmscore, fmscore and fmsmaster to run under administrator privileges.
The FMS starts correctly on laptop B (i compared the log-files on laptop a and b) and here is edge.00.log from laptop B (i censored my ip and host):

When i hit Connect button in FMLE i get the "Cannot connect to primary server" - error. When i change the FMS-Url to the ip-address of my laptop A i can connect to its FMS. The default FMS Url is rtmp://localhost/live and Stream: "mystream@38220" (this is working in laptop A).
I downloaded TCPView and compared whats happening with the laptops when i hit the Connect button. On laptop B FMLE sends bytes to FMSEdge and it responds with 1 byte and then nothing happens. On laptop A same thing happens but it opens up FMSCore and the stream starts going live.
Apparently the FMS had worked on laptop B before but then it stopped working due to reasons unknown. I tried reinstalling it with no results and now im clueless. I also tried the fmscheck and it said it cannot connect to FMS. It seems the FMSEdge is not behaving correctly or something is blocking the traffic between the programs. Please help.Access log looks like this:

I tried connecting to localhost:1935 with telnet and typing something and then watching what happens in TCPView. It says that the fmsedge process listening to port 1935 establishes the connection and receives the bytes, though it closes it after few seconds probably because it doesnt understand what data i sent. And when FMLE sends 1537 bytes to fmsedge it receives them but nothing happens. -
OSMF handling connections on Flash Media Server
How do I "kill" a connection on Flash Media server using OSMF?
Can I just "stop" a video (i.e. _player.stop() ) or do I have to set the media to null?MediaPlayer.stop() will only stop playback of the stream, but not close the connection.
If you set MediaPlayer.media to null, then it will close the connection. -
Number of connection allowed in the free developer ediiton of Flash Media Server
Hi
I would like to know the number of connection allowed in the free developer ediiton of Flash Media Server
Regards
SunnyHi,
When we say we limit the number of connections to 10 in Flash Media Development Server, we mean that we allow 10 successful connections and reject 11th connection onwards. So at anypoint of time your server can have only 10 active connections. When there are 10 active connections and a 11th client tries to connect to the server, the connection is rejected with reason "NetConnection.Connect.Rejected - [ License.Limit.Exceeded ] : (_defaultRoot_, _defaultVHost_) : Max connections allowed exceeds license limit. " and these details are logged at the server side core.log too

Adobe flash media live encoder not connecting to my server?
Hi all,
I am working on streaming programs through "Adobe flash Media Live encoder" in my website.The steps that i done for streaming is
* Installed Adobe flash media live encoder
* In the FMS URL entered as " rtmp://myserver ip/live "
* In stream given as "livestream"
* when i click connect the follwing error is displaying " Invalid primary FMSURL "
The website i am going to implement is " www.thelivingword.in:8080 " which is done using PHP. Is there anything i have to do in coding to connect the media server.As i am new to this i need guidance from you people for completing this..
Plz help me out of this..waiting for ur guidance steps.
Regards
Hari.VCan you check if firewall is on machine where Flash Media Server is installed? I mean it needs to off or you need to allow port 1935 and 80 so that you allow incoming traffic to FMS on this ports.

I can't connect to Flash Media Server 5 on UBUNTU
Hello everyone,
I install Flash Media Server 5 Extended edition with apache on UBUNTU SERVER 14.04 successfully.
Now when I type IP address in the other computer in the same network I can login to the Flash Media Server console but when I want to publish video from webcam or other devices to the media server I get the error "NetConnection.Connect.Failed"
I am newer in Linux please advise me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.Hello,
You are using the default discovery service : multicasting
Check if the multicasting is working on your system

Slow connection to flash media server 2 (with HTTP Tunneling)
Hello,
I use a FMS2 for a big project which include Instant
Messenger and
streaming video.
On my development platform. I have no problem. But in the
final
configuration, the connection to Flash Media Server takes a
lot of
time (about 2 or 3 minutes) and i can't find why.
FMS2 was installed on Windows 2003 Server behind a proxy and
a
firewall which only let the hostport 80 oppened.
The server does not run a web server (or anyother
application) which
use this hostport.
The connection are established by HTTP Tunneling.
Does someone already have the same problem?
Thanks for your answers and sorry for my poor english level.
GuillaumeI forgot to mention:
Flash Media server is running fine. I can log into the Admin
application no probs.
I created a folder called "test". Inside that folder I
created another one called streams and inside that folder I created
a folder called _definst_.
I placed an flv file called: test.flv in to the _definst_
folder.
In Dreamweaver CS3 I inserted a Flash Video File:
Chose Streaming as the option and for the RTMP path I put:
rtmp://ipaddressofserver/test/_definst_/test.flv
Called the stream....test.
When i run the page it loads, but the page is blank.
In the Flash Media Server, in the "View Applicationd" tab
I get the record of test and underneath it in the same link
it says test.flv with 1 client
The Streams tab shows a random name and Netstream.
This tells me its recognising the connection and link, but
the movie is not on the page
any help would be appreciated
cheers -
Can't connect the Flash Media Server
hi ,I am a jackaroo in Flash Media Server
My OS is Windows XP ,I install the Flash Media Server in
C:\programme files\
using fms2_console.swf i can successfully connect to the
server and manage it.
I make a empty folder named 'test' in the application folder
then i deploy it in cosole.
next I write actionscript in flex to connect to the server.
but it always return 'connection failed'
in the server log ,it displays 'Sun 06:46:55 PM: Core (3964)
socket migration failed.'
I use netstat -a ,the port 1111,1935 ,11110,19350 are open.
The code I writed looks like this
NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding =
flash.net.ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
public var net_con:NetConnection;
net_con=new NetConnection();
net_con.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,connectionHandle);
net_con.connect("rtmp:/test");
private function connectionHandle(event:NetStatusEvent):void
if((event.info.code=="NetConnection.Connect.Success")||net_con.connected==true)
Alert.show("CONNECTION SUCC！！！");
else
Alert.show("CONNECTION FAILED！！！");
I don't why it cann't connect to the server
I googled it but find nothing helpful and I think you can
help me .
Very sorry for my bad english .I think there is no problem in this code.
because In the documention flashmediaserver_developing.pdf
It's write
"Applications are run by creating application instances. When
a client connects to an
application, the client is actually connected to an
application instance. For example, a client
connects to an application named chat_app, as the following
example shows:
nc.connect(“rtmp://myDomain.com/chat_app”);"
I also tried rtmp://127.0.0.1/test ,but same result
