Hi Icecast,<br><br>My name is Luis Barrett as you know, for past couple of days now I been having problem getting icecast started. The first thing<br>I notice that we need to have a icecast.pid file but reading the script it say when you start up icecast it will create the icecast.pid<br>
file for us. So this is my question because now I'm getting upset because no one as been able be straight forward with us. We need<br>to now why can we not start up icecast? So it can create the icecast.pid file and where that in our directory that file need to go? Again<br>
we have a Redhat Enterprise LS 4 reading the some forum and searching online we notice everyone having the same problem on a<br>different Distro. I want to know how to start up icecast on our Distro if you now the answer please reply if you don't know the answer <br>
please let me know that you don't know the answer because I respect more if don't know the answer then just prolonging the issue<br>or just direct me to the person who dose like the person who created icecast because right we are getting very upset that no one can <br>
not give us a straight answer. <br><br>Thank you,<br><br>Luis Barrett <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Feb 20, 2011 at 12:46 PM, Keith Roberts <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:keith@karsites.net">keith@karsites.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

We already have icecast install we our just trying to it started. In the icecast started script we need the icecast.pid file and we just want to know were in the directory is the icecast.pid file or do we have to create one if we do in which directory?<br>

The Icecast PID file will be created by Icecast itself when it is started.<br>
<br>
The location of the file is defined in the config file icecast.xml.<br>
<br>
If it's not there or commented out, it appears that no PID file is created<br>
(i.e. that there's no default location). I say this because my running<br>
Icecast server on my home machine doesn't seem to have one and it's<br>
commented out in the config file.<br>
<br>
I guess you can put it anywhere, but there's probably a standard location<br>
for such things and it may even be specified in your config file.<br>

Hi Geoff.<br>
<br>
I'm running Centos 5.5 and the init process says icecast has started, but at shutdown time I get a message saying icecast is not running.<br>
<br>
What needs to be edited in the icecast.xml to get it to startup at boot time please?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Keith<br>
