How to view Wowza Monitor `console` window in SSH

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

When you start the server in windows you get a “console” window where all the info about the server is monitored , where, for example, you can see all the getLogger commands you put inside a module. How do I get to watch this “console” under SSH in Linux, please ?

Thanks

should be:

cd /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/bin
./startup.sh

On Windows use a cmd window (start>run>“cmd”) and type:

cd %WMSINSTALL_HOME%/bin
startup.bat

You cannot run Wowza as a service and in standalone mode at the same time. It’s a good way to debug on remote server where you can’t use the IDE, or if you don’t use the IDE. But normally you would run as a service.You can be running Wowza as a service and in standalone mode at the same time.

That’s right. You have to shutdown the service before running in stand-alone and shutdown the console before restarting the service. One at a time.

Great. Thanks, Richard !

Even if I run wowza as a service (as opposed to a standalone) I should use this ?

and also :

Can I view this panel/console in x11 forwarding in some gui , and if so how?

Thanks Richard,

But the following command is the command to run wowza as a standalone:

cd /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/bin
./startup.sh

So if want to debug using the console and above command,

On a server that already runs wowza as a service, then I should first

go

service WowzaMediaServer stop

and only then:

cd /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/bin
./startup.sh

Do i understand it correctly or can i just run

cd /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/bin
./startup.sh

regardless the fact Wowza already runs as a service ?

Sorry for the extra headache

Thanks
