Hi,

I am new to the forum, and just started using WOWZA. I have my CDN with softlayer. I want to put publishing point like rtmp://fso.hhp.xxxx.edgecastcdn.net/xxxx to push contents to their CDN.

Please advice what I want to do in my WOWZA server ?

thanks,

Navas

My understanding is that edgecastcdn is their CDN providers …

Take a look at the PushPublish addon:

Try adding debug properties: “DebugLog:true, DebugPackets:true”

```auto
live={Profile:rtmp, Host:fso.hhp.XXXX.edgecastcdn.net, Application:20XXXX, StreamName:live?20XXXX, OriginalTimecodeThreshold:0x100000, DebugLog:true, DebugPackets:true}

```

As you can see, the NetConnection.connect is rejected. You should check your credentials and publishing point, confirm with Edgecast. Perhaps there is logs on their side.

Yes Confgiured PushPublish …

My WOWZA server: [live.linux360.com](http://live.linux360.com), CDN provider adviced to add following entry in WOWZA:-

> The CDN will not be able to pull from WOWZA directly. The WOWZA server must be configured to use a publishing point. Please publish the desired stream to the publishing point closest to your encoder.
> 
> * * *
> 
> Publishing Point URL Europe : Amsterdam rtmp://fso.ams.XXXX.edgecastcdn.net/20XXXX
> 
> Publishing Point URL North America : Ashburn rtmp://fso.dca.XXXX.edgecastcdn.net/20XXXX

So I have done following entry in PushPublishMap.txt:-

live={Profile:rtmp, Host:fso.hhp.XXXX.edgecastcdn.net, Application:20XXXX, StreamName:live?20XXXX, OriginalTimecodeThreshold:0x100000 }

Please advice, is this the correct entry ?

Any updates pls ? My WOWZA log is not producing any error… but I could not play in flowplayer with the URL: rtmp://fml.xxxx.edgecastcdn.net/20xxxx/. I can access directly without connecting CDN …

In the Encoder log also I can see Netstream failed:-

un Jan 13 2013 23:17:41 : Primary - Connected to FMS/4,5,4,3003

Now the logs shows as follows:-

> 2013-01-13 19:53:35 UTC comment server INFO 200 - PushPublisher#ConnectResult.connect[rtmp://fso.hhp.xxxx.edgecastcdn.net:1935/stream/live]: result: NetConnection.Connect.Rejected description:[Server.Reject] : (_defaultRoot_, _defaultVHost_) : Application (stream) is not defined. Message: - - - 31.966 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

How can I Define Application in Edgecast ?
