hello!
i really like the icecast module, but i don't seem to be able to get the right syntax running in order to show the streams. i followed the directions here: http://www.icecast.org/spec.php, but i get the whole time mistakes from the server.
specifically i am not sure about two things: the cgi-bin in the url and the server name. do i have to add the cgi-bin to my url?
we have the directory currently under: www.example.com/yp

and what exactly is the server name in the syntax?

thx for your help!

Check out the README.txt for the yp module. The icecast.xml would need <yp-url>http://example.org/yp/cgi</yp-url> if http://example.org/ is the drupal front page.

If you want to change the URL path you could do that as an alias (Drupal URL alias or Apache config like Alias /cgi-bin/yp-cgi /var/www/drupal/yp/cgi)

ahoj (mfb)!
it's me again - i was busy with loads of other things so now back to the icecast.... i did what was proposed in the README.txt and what you said - not aliasing the URL path.

i still do not see my stream(s) listed in the yp. so i did exactly that, but NOTHING else. is there anything else i have to do then this? like something described here: http://www.icecast.org/spec.php
(sorry for being so stupid). also i do not have any /var/www/drupal/yp directory in the directory path at all.
i use an icecast2 server running on debian. i do not get any error messages nor anything else.
and i should see the directory listing here: http://example.org/yp ? if i use the /cgi in the end i just get a white screen.... otherwise i do get the directory listing screen, but it is empty.

thx so much for help

i found the mistake!
the libcurl-devel was not installed on the server but only the libcurl3. so i installed it and that took care of it. now it is shown nicely.
thx
