Description Kevin Pearsall 2005-05-17 15:19:00 UTC

shoutcast.com is foobar right now, giving an error like:
Unable to connect to Winamp DB server
MySQL Error: 2003 Can't connect to MySQL server on '172.19.1.1' (4)
Session halted.
...when you open it in a web browser.

so i went to internet radio -> shoutcast on squeezenetwork using an sb2...  and
now this sb2 when connected to squeezenetwork ONLY displays:
SQUEEZENETWORK ALPHA (1 OF 7)
Now Playing ->

...no matter what buttons i press on the remote.

we should probably handle this error more gracefully.

Comment 2 Vidur Apparao 2005-06-15 15:15:24 UTC

I can't recreate the problem. For testing purposes, I changed the plugin to
fetch a bogus URL from shoutcast.com, but couldn't get it to wedge in the way
described.

If this does happen again, please grab the contents of the following URL:
http://shoutcast.com/sbin/xmllister.phtml?service=SliMP3&no_compress=1
