<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'><div><div>It took me a LONG time to find the easiest steps to install Icecast. If you have basic Linux experience, this install should be a breeze for you. I choose to use yum installer because I want to be able to update it via yum and not have to manually build/install each package when one comes out. I use a VPS that provides a modified minimal CentOS 7 64bit install. Your install may not have the nano package or other commands and you'll have to either install or use vi. Also, I don't know what firewall software you are using so I only placed instructions for what software I have. Good luck and if you have any questions, we will assist as we can...</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><div><div>yum install deltarpm net-tools</div></div><div><div>yum install curl-devel libtheora-devel libvorbis-devel libxslt-devel speex-devel</div></div><div><div>yum update</div></div><div><div>cd /etc/yum.repos.d/</div></div><div><div>wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/multimedia:xiph/CentOS_7/multimedia:xiph.repo</div></div><div><div>yum install icecast</div></div><div><div><br></div></div><div><div>cp /etc/icecast.xml /etc/icecast.xml.orig</div></div><div><div>nano /etc/icecast.xml</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Using this website alter/add the following fields to match your needs to the icecast.xml file: <a href="http://icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.4.1/config-file.html" target="_blank" style="font-size: 12pt;">http://icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.4.1/config-file.html</a></div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><div><div><location>USA</location></div></div><div><div><admin>adminemail@yourdomain.com</admin></div></div><div><div><sources></sources></div></div><div><div><source-password></source-password></div></div><div><div><relay-password></relay-password></div></div><div><div><admin-password></admin-password></div></div><div><div><hostname>yourstreamdomain</hostname></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><div>CTRL X, Y, Enter to save this config file</div></blockquote><div><br></div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><div><div>touch /etc/mime.types</div></div><div><div>/usr/bin/icecast -c /etc/icecast.xml -b</div></div><div><div>service icecast start</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Use the following command to validate icecast is running on port 8000</div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><div>netstat -tulpn | grep :8000</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Enable port on your firewall.
