I am not seeing any specific error. it looks as though steamcast is binding to the port properly. Check to ensure that there is no firewall enabled.

It looks like a firewall issue:

Code: Select all

<06/02/2009@17:53:32> [ypadd] <www.steamcast.com> [/live.mp3] NAK: Cannot Connec
t to localhost:8009 nor 74.14.9.54:8009, [Connection timed out] Disable Firewall
/Nat/Proxy.

net Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection timed out).)
If you are not running a firewall then your router is causing this issue.

Your question is too broad. As I said, steamcast appears to be running fine, it's just being blocked by a firewall or router.

My question is about this:
<06/02/2009@17:53:22> [ypadd] <dir.xiph.org> [/live.mp3] NAK: Add refused. Reaso
n: Illegal listen_url. Incorrect <hostname>.
I have too been getting this, otherwise my steamcast is running fine. Googling for this only brought up this thread and a thread on SpacialAudio telling users to come to radiotoolbox.

the icecast.org directory requires hostnames to be sent with the request, steamcast doesn't currently support this.

Jay, am I missing something here? I am having the same problem. How can you get it so the YPs that do list you don't have you as localhost? If you can't specify the host name like in icecast, how is it even possible to get listed?

I tried adding this to the config file but it doesn't work:
<hostname>lo.1980s.fm</hostname>
hostname=lo.1980s.fm

Is there a work-around for this?

I'll try to release a patch for this soon. As I said in the other thread, the solution isn't elegant. I have no control over why Icecast changed the spec. Localhost used to trigger the YP to use the connecting IP. In terms of using a hostname it makes little since from a security perspective to trust user input like that. What I have worked out is a deferring security to the YP by allowing custom fields. A patch will be released soon to allow you to modify the request. Our YP will not change nor require extra fields or user inputted data for a stream link.

I didn't see this workaround in the the version that was just released. :(

If you need anyone to do alpha testing please let me know.
