I have configured an SRT stream target pointing to a known-working SRT destination and port. I am sourcing off of an RTMP ingest that I have verified as good and active. Stream targets in enabled, and the actual SRT target is enabled as well, but it remains in “waiting” mode. Logs are shwoing a PushPublish error (below). What does this error mean?

That error is reporting that the server cannot find your PushPublish stream @Thomas Van Stockum and in order to find where the error is, tech support would need you to submit a support ticket so they can view your configuration and run some tests on it. Thank you- you can do that here and they will reach out to you and help solve this with you.

We did fix a bug related to this issue in [Streaming Engine 4.8.10](https://www.wowza.com/docs/wowza-streaming-engine-4-8-10-release-notes#details)

- Fixed an issue with the Stream Targets page in Wowza Streaming Engine Manager showing an incorrect status (Waiting) for Active streams.
