Relay webstream through webserver

[MHz]

Hi all,

I am running an Icecast stream which isnt reachable through the corporate firewall at work. So someone posted a solution here: link

The question is, is this also possible with abyss webserver? If yes, how?

Thanks!

Nobody?

Icecast and Abyss are separate softwares, therefore you can use Icecast and Abyss.

Why would you need to run Icecast and Abyss at the same time?
I just installed Icecast to see what it is, and it looks like an ordinary web server to me, except for the statistics. You can configure virtual hosts with Abyss to achieve the same effect you want with Icecast, and it can be run directly on port 80.

After looking through the documentation from icecast, you should try changing the icecast port, or use multiple ports and make sure they are forwarded correctly.

Blarge, if I add a virtualhost, I assume I need to let icecast run at port 80 too? And to be able to add a virtualhost I need to be running X2, right?

I wasn't able to edit my first post before you posted, but from the looks of it, the link you have provided seems to just be looping a stream internally through apache's mod_proxy (HTTP Proxy 80 -> Stream 8000, meaning the user is only using a proxy to access port 8000), which I don't think abyss has and is not accessible to remote clients, so no you cannot use virtual hosts on Abyss for Icecast.

Icecast is it's own software. It runs on it's own port, and you can't run 2 softwares on the same port. You may need to try different ports for streaming like 443 and 8080 along with 8000 in icecast, as they are usually accepted by any client. If you wish to run Icecast on port 80, then you can't have Abyss on the same port.
