Solving Problems With Darwin Streaming Server
If Streaming Server Admin is not responding:
Verify that the streamingadminserver.pl script is running. If not, open a terminal window and
switch to the root administrator by typing “su root” and then the administrator password.
Then start the Streaming Server Admin process by typing “streamingadminserver.pl” into a
terminal window.
If the server doesn’t start up or quits unexpectedly:
m Check the error log.
m Make sure the DarwinStreamingServer file is in the /usr/local/sbin/ directory.
If the streaming server computer crashes or the streaming server computer
is restarted:
m Once the computer has started up, you need to restart any playlists, even if the Streaming
Server Admin indicates they are playing.
m Make sure the Darwin Streaming Server is running before you restart the playlists.
If media files do not stream properly:
m Check the error log.
m Make sure the movie file is supported by Darwin Streaming Server. Check the list of
compatible file formats on page 18.
m Try streaming a sample movie to see if the server can stream it. A sample movie is
included with the server.
If the server streams the sample movie, the problem may be with the way your movie file
is prepared. Recreate the movie.
If the sample movie doesn’t stream, the problem may be with the server computer or
the network.
m Try hinting the movie again with the Optimize Hints For Server option selected.
m Check streaming server activity and, if necessary, reduce the maximum number of
connections or throughput.
m If the problem occurs on a Mac OS client computer, open the TCP/IP control panel on the
client computer and make sure MacIP is not selected.
