New to FMS, testing FMS Developers versions.Connect and Live stream works fine using FMLE.Problem is I'm not sure how to get logged into the Admin Console.I'm not sure about what the "Server Name" is or the "Server Address". Is that just the IP address or the IP plus something else? How can I tell?FMS install was done by tech at hosting company and he forwarded this info:[code]

I reverted the admin console account on a new setup of Media server 4 and it will not let me connect or login using the "administrator" login? Does it set the password to some defaut? This is all new to me as this is my first install of this server. How can create a new admin login? How can I change to login?

View 1 RepliesMy employer has a Flash Media Server that I wrote a little streaming video app for a couple years ago.Well, the videos have stopped working and I've been asked to troubleshoot. I fired up the fms_adminConsole.swf and connected to my server. Now, it's been a long time since I've messed with the server, but if I remember right, there was a big list of apps on the list on the left hand side of the "View Applications" view of the console. When I log in, there are no applications listed. If I hit the "New Instance" button under the empty list, I'm presented with a list of all the apps I think I should be seeing in the Applications list. If I select any of these, a new application instance appears in the applications list, and I'm prompted to give it a name, the default being "_definst_". If I hit enter to create this instance, it remains on the list and instance data appears on the right panel until the console refreshes, and then all that vanishes and I'm back to an empty applications list again.
Going to "Manage Servers", I do see a list of applications under the applications tab that I expect to see. The app that streams the video that's having problems is there on the list.
Is this typical behavior for the Flash Media Server Console? Shouldn't I have a list of apps in the "View Applications" section of the console? I've created about a dozen to date, and they're all listed under Manage Servers > Applications, but not under "View Applications". Can anyone point out if I'm doing something wrong here or missing something?Or can someone confirm that I SHOULD be seeing something under "View Applications" and that there is indeed something weird going on with the server.
I installed FMS 4 on my notebook and I was able to access the console without trouble. I used localhost for the server address. When I installed it on a remote server (Windows 2008), I can't get in. I tried the same thing. I opened it from the file system [URL] and I tried localhost but it didn't work. I've tried other values
[URL]
One problem could be that I installed Apache but there is already a IIS server using the port 80. When I look in the service panel, FMSApache says it is starting but not started.
Anybody know how to configure SSL just for admin console acccess ?
View 1 RepliesIm having trouble getting the FM Administrative Console to connect to my AWS FMS. I have an instance running and can view the default page and samples. I opened ports 1111 and 1935 and have also modified the fms.ini file to include a user name and password. Restarted the FMS as well.
View 1 RepliesWe just installed our FMIS on Amazon services (EC2) and cannot log into the admin console. The server is running fine and we can resolve the web interface. Is there any configuration of ports or additional user accounts other than the install credentials (root/XXXXXXX).?
View 2 RepliesI recently setup Flash Media Server on Amazon EC2 and things are going well so far; however the admin console wont login. I've set the username, password, and port in the config file and opened that port, among others, in the security group. I've then restarted both FMS and admin server multiple times.
When I try to login I get no errors. Nothing happens at all. When I open FireBug and/or Fiddler2 to watch the communication, I'm not seeing a single thing happen. Clicking "Login" submits no requests at all. Do I just not understand how FMS works? I would assume some sort of request would need to be made.
I have a FMS server running that I am hosting some VOD content on. I am using HTTP dynamic streaming to deliver this content. Everything runs fine from a technical standpoint, but I am unable to see the connection details in the Admin Console. I have loaded vod -> defaultinst under the applications tab in the console. No connection details populate.
View 1 RepliesI'm attempting to view Shared Object data in my FMS Administration Console, but I consistently get the error:Object encoding error; terminating connection.I'm using Flex 3 with FMS 3.5, I'm positive that everything is using AMF3. The Shared Objects do seem to work. I can connect to the shared object through another instance of the app and pull saved data but they are not inspectable in the administration console. Also,very often when a new instance connects to the server I get a RangeError and all of my Flash Player instances crash.
View 9 RepliesWe can't login to the Admin Console. After we enter credentials and click login. Error message comes up. "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? "if we say no, it comes back. If we say yes it aborts script but we never login to admin console.
FMS is running fine, it just seems to be the flash movie that can't open. We have set it up to allow each website we are running to have its own application. since we have 1500+ applications running, we think this might be the issue. Can someone let us know if there is a application limit per server running FMS and/or should we take the 1500 websites and have them all share the same application?
I have installed the FMS 3.5 Server on a separate IP from our main Apache Server: The server is running Redhat Linux 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5
FMS 3.5 running on ***.***.**.138 using ports 1935, 8080 (Admin Server using port 1111)
Apache 2 running on ***.***.**.139 using port 80, 443. (several sites setup on this IP)
However, when accessing the fms_adminConsole.htm in the root directory of one of the domains on ***.***.**.139, all login attempts fail. I am connecting to localhost and using the assigned user and password set up in fms.ini. Using either IP fails as well. The FMS server is set up to listen to all hosts as no specific IPs were set.
/var/log/messages show that FMS and the Admin Server are up an running and listening:
Jul 7 12:15:37 228215-web1 Service[28196]: Server starting...
Jul 7 12:15:37 228215-web1 Service[28196]: Server started (/opt/adobe/fms/conf/Server.xml).
[Code]....
All other settings for FMS are default. This is my first time setting up FMS as a fresh install on a new unknown server and I am at a loss as to what settings to check or which files I may need to modify to get it to connect properly. It is a managed server is hosted by rackspace.com if that makes any difference.
Randomly on Sunday night the FMS Admin Console which you can access via [URL] stopped working, as in it would not load. It times out and Firefox says 'Server Not Found' It was working fine on Sunday morning and has been doing for a year now, I rebooted the server and that did nothing. I have no idea why it will not load as the server runs fine and I can still stream and everything.

View 1 RepliesI just installed FSMS 4 and could not log into the administration piece (the login s would fail) even though I was using the ID and password specified in the fms.ini file.
During the installation I had specified a different port for the administration port. I changed the port back to 1111 and I could log in with no problem.
Why is the admin login failing if I don't use 1111 as the admin port number ?
I simply can not login to the admin server. I'm connecting to the flash admin-frontend which is hosted on the same server which the FMS is running on. The FMS version is 3.0.1 and it's running on RHEL5.
I've set the user and password in conf/fms.ini. I have checked that I have permission to connect in conf/Users.xml. Everything seems like it should work, but it just won't let me in and when looking in the logs (logs/admin.00.log) I just get a lot of lines saying "Failed login attempt from."
Apart from this the server works. We are still using it for streaming and we have been able to login to the admin interface before, but it was a long time ago and now it just won't work anymore.
I'm trying to start this live broadcasting show throw the free application called "Adobe Flash Media Encoder 3.2", but to start this I would need a serve to start everything. So I decided to experiment with your wonderful "Flash Media Serve 4 :Dev version," before I buy the full version for massive scale of use( to stream live camera.) , but I ran into a problem when I'm in the log in screen console. I can asure you that I typed everything correct from the installation sequence and Im also fallowing this tutorial [URL] when I ran into the login screen this is what I find : an error message saying "Log in attempt has failed.
Please verify your log in information and try again." So that's what I technically do and I get the same message every single time I try. Since I know my password and my username really good , I know im not wrong. But my attempt with server address simes to be the problem. So you guy can know what I'm typing on that text box I type "localhost" without the "".
I want recieve infomation for recorded stream in FMS Server. so, i tried use Admin api(getRecordedStreams or getNetStreams). but, returned below code : NetConnection.Admin.CommandFailed .

View 5 RepliesI can start an instance of Flash Media Server 4 on Amazon EC2, using the Adobe public AMI, and I am able to view the vod and live media samples without any problems.
I can SSH into the running instance, and I can also bring up the Admin Console web page for that instance in a browser. However I have not been able to log in to the Admin Console.
Before trying to log in to the Admin Console, I have edited /opt/adobe/fms/conf/fms.ini and inserted a username and password, then I saved the modified file.
I have also updated my security group to add a custom TCP rule to open port 1111.On the Admin Console page login fields I have kept the default server name of Server 1.For the server address I have tried both localhost and also the public DNS address of my EC2 instance.I have used the username and password that I put into fms.ini.
I am trying to connect to an FMS application without flash (no SWF). To the best of my knowledge,the only way to accomplish this is thru the admin APIs, is that correct? If so, how do I return meaningful values from the admin API? I can call functions and stuff using the broadcastMsg API call but I can't seem to get back any values. All that is returned is a useless "Success" type message. I have tried using shared objects and the getSharedObjects API call, but the call doesn't return any info on the contents of the shared objects, just their names and some info on their persistance.
Is there another way of accomplishing my goal outside of the Admin API? If not how do I return meaningful variables from the Admin API? Is there a way to hack or extend the admin API?
Here is what I have done.I downloaded and installed FMS 3.5 (latest) on a virtual machine running in vmware on my iMac. The virutal machine runs Ubuntu 8.04 and has IP-number 192.168.219.130. Installed and completed I moved the "Legend.flv" file found on the "Beginners guide to streaming..." to my newly installed FMS /opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod/mediaI tested the fms by connecting with my iMac using the admin interface (copied from /opt/adobe/fms/tools/...) and logged in using the following credentials:Server Name: Server 1Server Address: 192.168.219.130Username: *********Password: **********The admin interface connected and all seemd to be just fine.I fired up my SWF made in CS4 (attached file). Basically it is an empty stage with a FLVPlayback component dragged on to the stage. the component has 3 changes made:skin: SkinUnderAllNoFullNoCaption.swfskinBackground: #009933source: rmtp://192.168.219.130/vod/Legend At this stage I only get the green bar with the loading stripes in the progress bar. I.e. the video never starts. If I check the admin tool and the log tabs It seems that no attempts to connect has been made.
View 2 RepliesThe attached image shows 17 client connections. Unfortunately there are not 17 clients connected to that app. In fact, I add users to a userlist shared object in application.onConnect(), and that shared object only reports 6 connections. That is the accurate number of connected users.
Why the phantom connections? Even if I unload and reload the app, the 17 client connections return.
How can my userlist shared object and the client connection number be out of sync? This situation seems to be related in some way to an FMS memory problem that is cropping up all of a sudden. When I have larger numbers of connected clients - say 300, the client connections reported in the FMS console are ten times that - like 3,000 or more. Then the application is unloaded by FMS for being a memory hog.
The app itself is simple. It just stores each user in a user array and passes chat communication to and from these users. The last time this main.asc code was changed was 2/8/2010. No problems with it in the countless times we've used it since then. Why the sudden phantom FMS connections, memory hog behavior, and constant unloading of the app?
It seems after a while the admin server stops responding on our fms server.When logging into the linux machine, I can see that the fms admin process is not running, and the pid in fmsadmin.pid is stale.When trying to restart the service with:"./fmsmgr adminserver restart" it fails to start the service with the following message in /var/log/messages:[code]How is it possible for fmsmaster to be using the admin server ports, and how would I prevent this in the future.
View 6 RepliesI have a problem with our FMSI3.5. A few times now we have experienced problems with the administration console/fms webserver. They become unavailable. When someone tries to connect to the administration console or tries to download a file from the FMS webroot the connection fails (times out). Streaming still works when that happens.
A FMS restart fixes the problem. Logs say something but can't really see what is wrong.

I am writing an app that track data/stats on multi FMS servers and that is working fine for my own custom server side functions. What I do is loop thru a list of IP of my FMS servers, call each IP and I also pass the IP to the server side function that get return and I can have my Responder object plug the returning data into an associate arrays (using IP as index) for reporting. Now my problem is when I used the Admin API. Here I was doing the same thing except I don't know the IP of the respnding FMS and I need to capture the data (into arrays etc). I had tried extending the Responder class so I can plug in the IP of the calling server but so far no good. I guess I need a way to know who is calling back

View 4 RepliesWe have added a few sub folders under the webroot folder. I did this so I could make a custom web page that generates the code need to display the video in a web page if it is one of the folders. My question is how do I get these folders and their content to show up in the Administrative Console? Also how do I get the videos to be logged? I have looked through the Server.xml and Application.xml files and the fms.ini but do not see any place, Am I not looking for the correct setting? Attached is a pic of the folders.
