    Hi there,

    I'm running Airtime 2.5.2.1 and can't connect with butt 0.1.13 oder Mixxx as Master Source to Airtime (in LAN).
    I double checked username, password and made sure the right port is open, but can't connect yet.
    Anyone who could help?

    I have a fix. in ls_script, there are these two functions: 

    #auth function for live stream
    def check_master_dj_client(user,password) =
        log("master connected")
        #get the output of the php script
        ret = get_process_lines("python /usr/lib/airtime/pypo/bin/liquidsoap_scripts/liquidsoap_auth.py --master #{user} #{password}")
        #ret has now the value of the live client (dj1,dj2, or djx), or "ERROR"/"unknown" ...
        ret = list.hd(ret)

        #return true to let the client transmit data, or false to tell harbor to decline
        ret == "True"
    end

    def check_dj_client(user,password) =
        log("live dj connected")
        #get the output of the php script
        ret = get_process_lines("python /usr/lib/airtime/pypo/bin/liquidsoap_scripts/liquidsoap_auth.py --dj #{user} #{password}")
        #ret has now the value of the live client (dj1,dj2, or djx), or "ERROR"/"unknown" ...
        hd = list.hd(ret)
        log("Live DJ authenticated: #{hd}")
        hd == "True"
    end

    They are referencing the incorrect absolute path for liquidsoap_auth.py. If you change it to the correct path (in my case /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/airtime_playout-1.0-py2.7.egg/liquidsoap/liquidsoap_auth.py) it will solve it. Do a search for liquidsoap_auth.py on your system to ensure that this is the correct location. 

    So the correct code should be 

    #auth function for live stream
    def check_master_dj_client(user,password) =
        log("master connected")
        #get the output of the php script
        ret = get_process_lines("python /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/airtime_playout-1.0-py2.7.egg/liquidsoap/liquidsoap_auth.py --master #{user} #{password}")
        #ret has now the value of the live client (dj1,dj2, or djx), or "ERROR"/"unknown" ...
        ret = list.hd(ret)

        #return true to let the client transmit data, or false to tell harbor to decline
        ret == "True"
    end

    def check_dj_client(user,password) =
        log("live dj connected")
        #get the output of the php script
        ret = get_process_lines("python /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/airtime_playout-1.0-py2.7.egg/liquidsoap/liquidsoap_auth.py --dj #{user} #{password}")
        #ret has now the value of the live client (dj1,dj2, or djx), or "ERROR"/"unknown" ...
        hd = list.hd(ret)
        log("Live DJ authenticated: #{hd}")
        hd == "True"
    end

    In your airtime streams configuration, the "master source connection URL" should be "http://url:port",without mentionning the mountpoint.

    December 2016 : with a new wheezy machine, connections do not work. At all.

    The solution explained  here is the good one : edit /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/airtime_playout-1.0-py2.7.egg/liquidsoap/ls_script.liq

    edit line 216 and 227  to set the good path, like :
       # old ret = get_process_lines("python     /usr/lib/airtime/pypo/bin/liquidsoap_scripts/liquidsoap_auth.py --master #{user} #{password}")
        ret = get_process_lines("python  /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/airtime_playout-1.0-py2.7.egg/liquidsoap/liquidsoap_auth.py --master #{user} #{password}")

    And it works !

    Shame on sourcefabric.org devellopers, who gets warnings from lots of users.

    And thanks to the user who found the trick !

    Seb
