For a while I'm also struggling with the port issues Nauman describes.
At the following page (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_16631&sliceId=2) Adobe says: "By default, the Macromedia Flash Player communicates with the Flash Communication Server using RTMP protocol over port 1935. If that fails, it will try again over ports 443 and 80 in an attempt to workaround firewall settings within a company, which prevents TCP/IP connections over non-standard ports. The above approach allows approximately 96% of all users to access publicly accessible Flash Communication servers. To support closer to 100% of the users we need the Macromedia Flash Player to negotiate connection to the external Flash Communication server though a proxy server (if there is one), or use HTTP protocol to transmit RTMP packets (HTTP tunneling) if there is a firewall (which allows only HTTP content to be sent out to public servers)." If I understand it correctly one need to program the Flash player to choose port 443 and 80 as an alternative (keeping in mind the reserved 0-1023 portrange makes life harder for non-root tomcat users). But if those ports are already in use for normal the http protocol (e.g. serving webpages) the RTMP packets needs to be wrapped in the http protocol resulting in RTMPT. But the "if that fails, it will try again over ports 443 and 80........" confuses me. Does this make any sense or am I missing something? ruben > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens > Luke Scott > Verzonden: donderdag 23 augustus 2007 16:33 > Aan: [email protected] > Onderwerp: Re: [Red5] When I add the port number to the connection string > theconnection fails > > RTMPT not RTMP. > > I'm not sure if you can change it to 80. > > First, are you running Red5 as root or another user?
