Hi, i have been using Wowza 3.6.2 for Cisco TelePresence Content Server 5.3, it worked fine. I am now testing Wowza Streaming Engine 4.0.1 and i cannot get it to work.
I have an identical configuration that worked in 3.6.2. Is there something that must be done for version 4.0.1 that is not included in:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/telepresence/tcs/5_0/media_servers/configuration/guide/wowza.fm.html#wp117942
I can’t figure it out:
INFO server comment - MediaCasterStreamValidator.init[defapp/definst]: Started
INFO application app-start definst defapp/definst
INFO application app-stop definst defapp/definst
TCS Error:

Hello, was there a solution to this? I have the exact problem, so it seems.
A couple things to check/try
Make sure you have a username and password set up in the /conf/publish.password file. Or for testing purposes you could disable authentication temporarily by editing conf/[application]/Application.xml and changing RTP/Authentication/Method to none.
Another idea is to turn on debug logging by editing conf/log4j.properties and changing the log level on the first line from INFO to DEBUG. Maybe something will show up as the culprit.

That guide is for Wowza 3, but it should work if you follow the instructions using the configuration files in Wowza 4. Do not copy old configuration files from Wowza 3 to Wowza 4, rather start with Wowza 4 files.
If you still do not have this working, do a short test then send us some files. First delete the current access log, then re-start Wowza (important to restart so we can see logging for startup), and run through testing, however you are using Wowza and Cisco Content Server. Then zip up the /conf folder and current access log showing the re-start and your testing to support@wowza.com. Include a link to this thread for reference.

Also, please revert to INFO level logging before you re-start.

Huh!
Take a look here:
Notes on Configuring Wowza 4.x on Content Server
When you configure a Wowza 4.x media server in the Content Server Management > Recording Setup > Media server configurations > + Add Wowza server screen, you might see the following error when you click Save.
Failed to announce the RTSP to the wowza server
This is the workaround:
Step 1 Log in to the Wowza streaming manager. Navigate to the Applications page.
Step 2 Choose Add Application .
Step 3 Choose Live: Single Server or Origin .
Step 4 Name the application defapp and click Save .
Step 5 Restart the Wowza server. Add the Wowza media server in the Content Server

Hi, there was no new errors, i tried disabling authentication and also put log level to debug:
