Re: Help with media server setup



Nope,
I added secondary IP, to NIC interface, when I http to
publishingpoint.htm, for some reason it is launching Media Player with an
error (which seem to point to wrond publishing point)

Hi
Installed windows 2003 server and media services and install Media
encoder,
I have 1 network adapter with 1 IP address bound to it, so I am thinking
article# KB328728 does not apply to my problem.,


I(t definitely applies to your problem. You have skipped the important
part of the document, which I'll cut+paste here :

For both IIS and WMS to use port 80, one of the following two
conditions must be true:
. One (1) network adapter has at least 2 IPs bound to the
adapter.
. Two (2) network adapters have at least 1 IP bound to each
adapter.


Two services on one IP address cannot share the same port number.
Move IIS to another port (eg 8080) or bind a second IP address to the
network adapter, and run IIS off that IP address.

HTH

So I enabled IIS on the same server, created a Virtual Directory pointing
to
publishing point of the media server.
If I use PULL option on the encoder to publish live video,
I have no problem watching live video from web browser on different
computer
on the network, (while HTTP protocol is disabled on WMserver)

If I change to PUSH on the encoder, (which forces me to enable HTTP
protocol
on WMserver) then I can not watch it from the web browser
When I look at WMserver http protocol properties, I see 2 IP addresses in
the list
1 with local IP address of the adapter, the other one is 127.0.0.1

Just in case, I followed the arcticle, added 127.0.0.1 using
WMSHttpsyscfg.exe,
opened HTTP protocol properties on WMServer, and selected my local IP
address for distribution of video.

It only works from any computer using mms://servername/distributionPoint
but not with http://servername/distributionPoint.htm

Any idea, what I am missing?
Thanks
MC
