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?
Thanks

I 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.

  • 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?

  • 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. 

  • Flash Media Server 3 and Adobe Connect 6.0 SP2

    Hi all, I have a doubt.
    It's possible to run Adobe Connect Server 6.0 SP2 and Flash
    Media Server 3 in the same machine?
    Thnx.

    Adobe Connect server includes its own flash media server. in
    that case;
    There can be some conflicts for port/service registration

    Can 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.

    so i would like to know, rather than closing application what are other condition when FMS loses network connection?
    Any help would be appreciated .
    Thanks.

    Hi. It looks like your code is not finding the mp3. At least,
    I can reproduce your error code by removing the mp3 from the
    directory, or renaming it.
    Btw, if you test with FF instead of IE, you'd see the error:
    Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032:
    Stream Error.

    Hope that helps.

  • Flash Media Server Update Process

    Hi all,
    I currently have Flash Media Server 3.5.0 installed and it has been running since 2009.  It has been running for so long without issues I kind of forgot about it.  Now i see there is an update to 3.5.7.  I downloaded it but when I ran the installer it warned me that all my configuration settings may be lost.  I tried to find some info on the best procedures to follow to perform the update but was unable to find much.  I really do not want to lose my settings.  I looked in the FMS admin console but i did not see any option to backup the current settings. 
    What is the best way to proceed with this update without losing your settings or negatively impacting the media server?

    Like Graeme Bull said in another related post : "You can keep up on that on the product manager's blog though http://blogs.adobe.com/ktowes/"

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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
    Sunny

    Hi,
    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

  • Slow connection to flash media server 2 (with HTTP Tunneling)

    Hello,
    I use a FMS2 for a big project which include Instant

    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

    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.

    I 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

  • 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.
