RTB v2.0.2 build 300 Favicon Exception

Post by billmilosz »

Radio Toolbox is trying to "get a favicon" from each of my servers, and my servers are telling it "404 not found"

at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
at RadioToolbox.Station.GetFavicon()

What's this favicon and how do I configure my Shoutcast v 2 server to provide it to RTB?

My RTB log is filling up with this.

It is completely optional and the exception should not stop the program.

If you desire to have a favicon please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon for in depth information on what it is.

This exception error can be resolved by putting a favicon in the root folder of your website. If you have listed your website in the shoutcast settings, radio toolbox is looking for the favicon.ico located at the root of your website.
In my case the favicon is located at http://radio3norge.no/favicon.ico and it appears in Radio Toolbox without errors.
