[campcaster-support] Scheduler and website on different machines.
  • Hello,

    We are currently in the process of replacing our bug-ridden in-house
    playout system on Linux and currently looking at campcaster as an
    option.

    So far, we can get the system to play tracks and playlists out. We can
    also schedule them from the playout application (campcaster_studio).

    However when we attempt to do this from the web service, we get the
    message back "cannot connect to scheduler".

    I should state that the scheduler and playout system are running from
    one machine. The website and storage are handled from our server, a
    separate box. The web server simply has a copy of the php files on it.

    The website also does not show the current track info (and defaults to
    "off air"). Though, we can manage tracks and playlists from the web
    interface.

    Is there an obvious setting being overlooked here not allowing us to
    run scheduler/playout on one box and the web service on another?

    Thank you,

    Marc Steele
