Problem connecting to steamcast from local network. (Steamcast + Ezstream or Ices)
Hello team,
First of all, congratulations on this proyect!. It works flawlessly and it looks nice and easy. I'm having a little problem with connections to the mount point from the same machine. It works ok when I connect from another computer. So far, I've tested to broadcast with Traktor and Altacast, both works as spected; they connect and stream. But when I've tried to load a playlist and stream to steamcast from the same machine I always end in the same point, it can't connect to the mountpoint. Both programs gave me the same error in the log:
Ices
Ezstream (log from steamcast.log)
My steamcast.conf
ezstream_vorbis.xml
ices-playlist.xml
I've tried with localhost, 127.0.0.1 and checked other system logs to try to find the, presumably, silly error. It's an VPS with Debian jessie on it. Any light on this will be much appreciated.

Re: Problem connecting to steamcast from local network. (Steamcast + Ezstream or Ices)
Hello there MAX, thanks for reading. In the meantime I've tried another source -Icegenerator- with the same result. I can't connect to the steamcast/icecast from the same machine. Iptables is empty. Looking at steamcast.log I saw this (it happens everytime but I'm still be able to connect from another ip):

Well, it appears my original post was then correct. The warning there is stating that some other program on your machine is using port 8000 and 8001. Are you sure there aren't multiple instances of Steamcast running? Or that another program doesn't have those ports?

Re: Problem connecting to steamcast from local network. (Steamcast + Ezstream or Ices)
I think the warning might be indicating that it is failing to bind to IPv6 either way I don't think that is the problem
This is a big clue to me that there is a problem with the way Steamcast is interpreting this source connection. It seems to be treating it like a listener rather than a source.

Re: Problem connecting to steamcast from local network. (Steamcast + Ezstream or Ices)
Ok, I'm gonna try deactivating IPv6 support and try. Any other suggestion?
Re: Problem connecting to steamcast from local network. (Steamcast + Ezstream or Ices)
We may have to test if your source is doing something new. It should try to push ICE protocol for sending the source. But it appears Steamcast believes its trying to instead listen to the stream instead.

Okey, if you need access to my vps just tell me who and I'll PM access data. I don't understand how this push/pull icecast protocol works yet, but there is a good chance that my server is misconfigurated somehow because of my noobness!
Re: Problem connecting to steamcast from local network. (Steamcast + Ezstream or Ices)
Hi,
We will never ask for access to your VPS. Nor will we accept such access.
What we'll need to know is what applications and versions of said applications you are using. Also what operating system are you using?

We really just needed the direct applications you are using with Steamcast such as the source/encoder.
Also, what operating system are you using?
