I deleted all files associated with DSS. I reinstalled, which went
without error from the Install script. I killed the
streamingadminserver.pl and all instances of DSS. I started
streamingadminserver.pl in debug mode (-d). I went to myserver:1220 and
was presented with the screen to enter a password for MP3 broadcast (I
entered and repeated a pw), then ssl toggle (left unchecked), then
media directory (it was blank, I entered /usr/local/movies), then port
80 toggle (left unchecked). Then I was presented with what I think is
the home page, the button in the upper left is labeled Stop Server and
next to it is "Server is Starting Up". The table looks like this;
Server:
Status:
Started Wed, 31. Dec 1969 19:00:00
Current Time On Server:
Wed, 31. Dec 1969 19:00:00
Up Time:
DNS Name (default):
Server Version:
.c
Server API Version:
0.0
CPU Load:
0.00%
Current # of Connections:
Current Throughput:
bps
Total Bytes Served:
Total Connections Served:
So it looks like the script isn't talking to the server because the
Server field is blank, and the dates are set at the Linux base date.
I went to the Playlist and clicked on New MP3 Playlist and got
Error - Perl execution failed
No errors were reported in the terminal displaying streamingserveradmin
debug.
I think it's also interesting that I've never been prompted for the
admin name/password.
This is quite a mystery. There's really nothing unusual about my Linux
server. It's serving up webpages, about 20,000 yesterday, handling
company e-mail. I can access the server using webmin, which I guess is
sort of analogous to streamingserveradmin being a Perl-based server
GUI, and that is all functioning normally.

OK, try this:
Kill off the currently running Perl/streamingadminserver.pl process.
Then as the root user, from the command-line, try starting the
Streaming Web Admin in debug (-d) mode:
Do you get any errors? Try using a web browser to access the
Streaming Web Admin (over port 1220), and watch the terminal that is
running streamingadminserver.pl -d. Do you see any errors
displayed/printed when using the web admin from a browser?

Updating perl to 5.8.0 didn't fix.

What version of Perl do you have installed? On RH Linux 7.x, I've
used and tested DSS 4.1.3.c with Perl v5.8.0, and it worked fine.
