View 1 RepliesWe have a pool of FMS 3.5 servers behind a haproxy load balancer. They are working fine with RTMP and download with HTTP through FMS proxy. We need now to have RTMPT working for some clients behind a strict firewall.
1) We started configuring the haproxy load balancer to work in HTTP (level 7) mode and we changed the FMS Adaptor.xml configuration file on all servers with the tag below:

View 1 RepliesI am having a multi user application running in FMS. I need to cluster them using Edge/Origin with Origin failover.I went thru, http:[url]......My questions are,1) which software load balancer can I use? Is there possiblitiy of configuring the fms server to be reverse proxy.http:[url].... in the below link its mentioned that we can configure edges in 4 ways.Client auto discovery proxyServer auto discover (reverse proxy)Explicit URIImplicit URI (recommended)what configs do I need to do.I was successfut only Explicit URI way by configuring the Vhost.xml. How would I do for others?
View 1 RepliesI was successfully able to setup FMS edge-origin cluster but Origin-only clustering is the one we wanted for our live applications. The only place I found was 'Large Scale Deployment with FMIS'. I guess for Origin Only Clustering, we need to have our own caching system. What does get cached in a Live AV Chat? How do I propagate it to other Origins? What kind of plugins would I need for cache managing? What should the plugin do?
In the attached Origin Only Architecture, what does the Primary Origin do and Secondary Origin do? I thought Origin is the place where the application is actually running and Edges do proxy. Is it the same here in Origin-only clustering also? Are there any tools which can measure the lag in AV? (like performance measuring tools or load testing tools for FMS). What kind of software Load Balancer can we use for FMS clustering? (Like Nginx, Zeus or something?)
I have an FMS Clustered in Edge-Origin configuration. Can I have different Origins for different applications but the same edges?.I have multiple edges forwarding the requests to the Origins based on the application name?[code]And if its possible, can someone advice the advantageous of having different Origins for different Applications?
View 6 RepliesI was wondering if anyone knows if there is a loading testing tool for interactive apps like a chat app. The reason I asked is because the company I worked experienced some issues where cores where crashing and we are trying to determined if the issue is load.

View 1 Replieswhere can I find step by step guide for clustering FMS? url...but , it is not clear what exactly to do , it just says like :Install and configure the first Flash Media Server.Use the same serial number and license file each time you install Flash Media Server.NOTE A special cluster license file is required. For more information, contact your Macromedia representative.Confirm that this Flash Media Server instance is working correctly.Configure the Flash Media Server instance as an origin server.Install and configure the next Flash Media Server in the cluster.Configure this Flash Media Server instance as an edge server.Make sure this edge server points to the origin server.Repeat steps 5 through 7 for each edge server that your license file allows.

View 1 RepliesWhat would be the crucial things to optimize when you have hundreds of people connected to your application, with most of them being in a video conference with RTMFP direct_connections, and also some using RTMP connections?
Our app seems to go down under heavy load. - RTMFP stops working (no one can connect to the service with RTMFP NetConnection) and RTMP NetStreams don't work either, however Text Chat works.
Server we use have a connection limit of 500 connections, and 2.5mbps speed limit per connection (a video conference with 4 people uses less than that so it seems fine).

View 5 RepliesI have been running a test server using Apache as the web server. The problem is I need to be able to run FMS on an IIS machine, and there is a conflict over each trying to binding to port 80. I have read that a solution to this problem is to have 2 IP addresses, having FMS bind to one and IIS bind to the other. This is not a requirement for Apache and FMS. Why is it a requirement for IIS and FMS? This question my show my lack of knowledge of the difference between the 2. But, is it possible to configure IIS or FMS so that they share port 80 like FMS and Apache do? how Apache and FMS work together, and why IIS cant?

View 6 RepliesI carefully read forums for phpmyadmin before posting here and none really had the answer. I am able to install phpmyadmin on stand alone versions of Apache, but unable to do so on the FMS version. I previously read this post [URL] and it doesn't seem to answer the question although it looks like part of the question may have been answered offline. The problem is that phpmyadmin installs and I know that PHP is running fine because I can run a couple of test scripts with no problem. However, when I go to login to phpmyadmin, I get the dialog box asking me "do you want to open or save this file" and the script itself never executes. I checked the the server log, and here's what's going on:
[Code]...
Based on the post noted above, I'm assuming this may have something to do with either POST variables or maybe proxying unknown requests, however the forum post didn't appear to resolve the problem. I also posted to that thread, but I wasn't sure it was still being monitored.
I'm wondering if anybody knows of a guide or a step by step process for configuring a VBrick HS.264 encoder to send video to my FMS for live broadcast. I'm experiencing issues configuring the Transmitters on the VBrick admin panel and unsure how to have FMS recognize the video stream to publish it. Has anybody used a VBrick encoder with FMS?
View 1 RepliesWe purchased FMIS and we are encoding large 15+ hour MP4 recordings using flash media encoder. When opening these large files for playback, which have not been opened recently the player displays the loading indicator for up to 4 minutes! Once it has apparently been cached on the server it opens immediately from any browser even after clearing local browser cache. So a few questions for the experts
1. Why is it taking so long to load the file. Is it because the MP4 metadata is in the wrong format and the file is so huge? I read somewhere that Media Encoder records with incorrect MP4 metadata is that still the case?
2. Once its cached on the server, exactly how much of it is cached. Some of these files are larger than 500mb.
3. What fms settings do you suggest I change. FMIS is running on windows server R2 64 bit, but FMIS itself is 32 bit. We have not upgraded to the 64 bit version. We have 8GB of ram. Is it OK to set FMS cache to 3GB. And would that only have enough room for 3-4 large files, because we have hundreds of them.

the player "FlashMediaPlayback" is loaded from remote ftp adobe server.
How can I load the player from my local machine?

View 9 RepliesRandomly 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.
