Emergency - Crashed - No JR5 - Just blank Screen with Error.

Using Jamroom

Took a chance and did a DB repair with cpanel tool. That restored the site.

I took screenshots of the check and repair screens. The area of intertest seems to be conversion server, where a recent update was made, and I was converting a huge file.

I see in the JR logs, that conversion process failed long before the "crash". Not sure if they are related or how to interpret any of this.

Wow - yes that was fast - lol. I only asked because I didn't know if I was supposed to be looking for something to tweak.

Should be getting server hardware upgrade this week which will speed things up.

Host says he has this video package installed, but it all seems to be related to streaming not conversion.
Lighttpd Streaming
Lighttpd web server with mod_flv_streaming installed.
Apache mod_flvx Video Streaming
Apache web server with mod_flvx installed.
Apache mod_h264 Video Streaming (HD)
Apache web server with mod_h264 installed.
RTMP Video Streaming
Adobe Flash Media Server installed with the streaming directory pointed to the script video directory.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for all that info. Is there a place where I can change that or do I wait for an update?

Hi Paul,

Thanks for that. I'm going to test again later today.

Installed Comet Chat - Got Errors

Installation and Configuration


Sure thing - but as far as my network goes Comet Chat is working fine, so I don't expect and new info or contact from their support staff. Let you know if I do.

Hi Brian,

It's still not working but the symptoms have changed. When activated I see http://kenrich.me/_map=1603d6e5583c5c01e3e038210ddadfe9 when I go to indiegospel.net/ken-rich

Normally, I just change the nameservers to the server I'm hosting at and create an add on domain or subdomain. Then the DNS resolves and I don't have to play around with @ host.

Should I set @ host to point to the server IP (root) or the JR5 dedicated IP?

How will I know if DNS is resolved? Normally I know that when the website comes up. Your procedure says to get resolution before activation - so how does one check? A ping of kenrich.me doesn't connect to anything - should it before activation?

This is a MP4 video file 314 MB in size and about 36 minutes long. The client is in one of my paid quotas, so I want to allow this, he's paying for the server resources.

I have conversion set to the highest level with 1 worker.

1) With 2 workers will it cut the time in half, or just allow 2 files to be processed at once? (Should server upgrade be faster processor or more processors).

2) Where can I increase the 3666 second time cap, so that it doesn't keep giving up. It tried 3 times which means 3 hours of processing 1 hour each. All wasted. If it was set to 3 hours to start with it, it might have finished and not been wasted resources.

3) Did it delete the file for real, or just from the queue? I see it (or at least a record of it) in the datastore. However, I see no way of adding it back to the queue.

4) My host says he has a media conversion package on the server that converts videos really quickly. He's wondering why it's so slow through the script?
