can't see uploaded media files in playlist builder !
  • Hello, 
    Thanks alot for this wonderful solution to automate my streaming, 

    I got a problem here, 
    I have a VPS with 1.5 GB Dedicated Ram running Ubuntu11.04 64bit
    I just installed Apache2/PHP/MYSQL
    Then installed Airtime using .tar.gz file from sourceforge
    Everything worked great untill i got the checking result, that a problem happen while installing Airtime
    i found that Media-monitor FAILED 
    I can login to Airtime & when checking status i found that all are active except for airtime-media-monitor which is having disabled icon
    airtime playout = working
    airtime liquidsoap = working
    rabbitmq server = working

    when trying to upload file to add Media, 
    I cant find the media file in playlist builder, 

    Any Help Would be appreciated, Thanks

  • Hi Karim - you could open a terminal window and type in "sudo service airtime-media-monitor restart" to try to activate the media monitor manually.
  • If that doesn't work, please supply /var/log/airtime/media-monitor/media-monitor.log 

    This should show us the reason why it refuses to start.

    you need to modify your airtime-vhost into /etc/apache2/sites-available/
    and after modifications restarting apache

    unfrotunately, it's impossible. You need to define any domain based name (host_name.domain_name) for your ip address and add string "ServerName host_name.domain_name" to airtime virtual host config file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
    After then just reload apache and check http://host_name.domain_name

    You can use some free domain services to get public host name, for instance http://dtdns.org

  • Ok Worked Great, 
    and Now am running Airtime on Sub.mydomain.com 
    but when going to my server ip, i get Airtime login Interface, 
    Im planning to provide shared hosting on same server, need to put ip/user when doing ip/user i get Airtime login interface and cant get my client's Web page ??? 
    I need to prevent Airtime to access server ip root

    Another Question, 
    Can i install More than One Airtime On my VPS, if i want to run two o three stations ?? if not how can i run more than one station on same VPS ?

    Help Would be Appreciated.
    Thanks alot,


  • You have Airtime appearing on subdomain.domain.com AND domain.com?

    That looks like a simple apache configuration problem.

    Can i install More than One Airtime On my VPS, if i want to run two o three stations ?? if not how can i run more than one station on same VPS ?

    At the moment we only support one install per machine.
