Re: Send admin kill request to server

Good morning Philipp,

in the log files I couldn't find anything, but the level is only set to 3. I set it now to 4, but a restart is require first.

How can I set the credentials?
If I use <bind-address> is the server than only listen to this IP?
Can I have 2 bind-addresses for one port?

Where can I find additional information about setting the credentials?

Can I provide you my configuration directly?

Thanks for your support,
HGA

No, not really. This strongly sounds like the credentials are in fact not provided. both access.log and error.log might have details. Also you could have a look at the actual traffic flow.

At this point I don't think there is much to add without knowing your config and the code you use to access the API. I still strongly guess that you just don't provide the credentials in a way they are actually used. Which is most likely a problem with your code, not the API or Icecast.

With best regards,
