Hello in first order i would like apologize for my english.

I need help with modules configuration “ServerListenerStreamPublishe” and “LoopUntilLive”.

now is working correctly only on one application. But i need add in others.

I got stuck with “ServerListenerStreamPublishe”.

so i read again

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-schedule-streaming-with-wowza-streaming-engine-streampublisher](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-schedule-streaming-with-wowza-streaming-engine-streampublisher)

and i can’t add second ( Property already exists. ) value “Server Properties” -\> “Root/Server - streamPublisherApplication” for another application

Hello,

You can add the scheduler to more than one application. You will need to add the [application properties](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-schedule-streaming-with-wowza-streaming-engine-streampublisher%28ServerListenerStreamPublisher%29#props_module) to each application you plan on using the scheduler with and the application level properties override the server level properties. You’ll want to make sure to use unique playlist.smil names for each application.

Best regards,

Andrew

Old thread, still a question to me: “streamPublisherApplication” is a server level property.

How do you add two? You don’t need to add? Do I add this to the application level?

I’m too curious about this question because we need to have a similar configuration.  
We have multiple live applications and want to show a looping pre roll, while no live stream is available. But unfortunately I only can add “streamPublisherApplication” only once at the server level properties and assign only one application.  
So how do I configure wowza to have multiple “streamPublisherApplication”?  
I watched [https://www.wowza.com/blog/loop-a-pre-roll-until-a-live-stream-starts](https://www.wowza.com/blog/loop-a-pre-roll-until-a-live-stream-starts) which helped me a lot getting this one application running.

Any help will be appreciated.

Best regards  
Sven

I’m necromancing this dead thread for future users who stumble across it trying to solve this problem.

All the info required to auto start more than one application is in this official wowza doc:

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-schedule-streaming-with-wowza-streaming-engine-streampublisher](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-schedule-streaming-with-wowza-streaming-engine-streampublisher)

Although I didn’t find it obvious how to do so, it is there.

Basically, do **not** use the server only property _streamPublisherApplication_. As we’ve all observed, that only works for one application, and you can only add it once.

Instead, **do** use the referenced LoadAndLockInstances server listener:

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-a-server-listener-to-load-and-lock-an-appinstance-serverlistenerloadandlockappinstances](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-a-server-listener-to-load-and-lock-an-appinstance-serverlistenerloadandlockappinstances)

Then use the _loadAndLockApplications_ server property to define which application **s** you would like the server to start up on server start.
