| Summary | 0000480: icecast missing | ||||
| Description | Hi. I was trying to move from centos to almalinux, and unfortunately icecast server is missing from repos. Can someone to take a look and add it for alm8\9 repos? P.S. regular src rpm from centos 7 can be recompiled with enabled powertools repo and looks alive | ||||

Hi mesb1, Thanks a lot for your report. The initial builds for AlmaLinux OS 9 and 8 is ready. May we ask for a help on the testing? Source: https://git.almalinux.org/rpms/icecast Builds: - AlmaLinux OS 9: https://build.almalinux.org/build/19452 - AlmaLinux OS 8: https://build.almalinux.org/build/19453 Instruction: AlmaLinux OS 9: dnf config-manager --add-repo https://build.almalinux.org/pulp/content/builds/AlmaLinux-9-x86_64-19452-br/ AlmaLinux OS 8: dnf config-manager --add-repo https://build.almalinux.org/pulp/content/builds/AlmaLinux-8-x86_64-19453-br/ dnf makecache dnf install icecast |

Planned update test on this weekend. Please stay tuned, I'll be back with results. |

While preparing test system, at first look there is a some misconfig there: Default logrotate config included into rpm is awaiting icecast pid under /var/run/icecast/icecast.pid Default placed config /etc/icecast.xml also included correct setting: <pidfile>/var/run/icecast/icecast.pid</pidfile> But after i have started icecast, i see no any /var/run/icecast directory created. I assume it will never be restarted as logrotate will never find any pid for sending HUP signal. So do we need any additional scriptlet included in rpm for /var/run/icecast directory creation maybe? |
|
|
Hm, did some reboots, it looks like manually created /var/run/icecast just disappeared. Well, maybe best move is just change config and logrotate into /var/run/icecast.pid then. |
|
|
Well, i can confirm it is running fine. The only question is about pid file location. |

mesb1, Thanks for the feedbacks. We use Fedora source of icecast package and it is stable for a while on https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/icecast Please, check the %changelog field of the RPM spec file. * Fri Feb 24 2012 Petr Pisar <ppisar@redhat.com> - 2.3.2-7 - Remove obsolete buildroot and defattr declarations from spec file - Move to systemd (bug #782149) - Drop unneeded /var/run/icecast because of non-forking systemd unit (bug #656601) Here are the bug reports about the changes: - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=782149 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656601 On our tests, we used the icecast.service[1] for starting the icecast. On our tests, we used Ezstream as a source client and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rondo_Alla_Turka.ogg as an audio to stream.

mesb1, Since we have report on https://forums.almalinux.org/t/streaming-or-my-internet-radio/4478 too. May I ask which source client do you use? We are considering to package https://icecast.org/ezstream/ too complete the icecast stack. |
|
|
elkhan, In my case there was a few installs, one used just for restreaming purposes and others used this clients: ices2 that's also provided by centos7, but ogg support only. ices0 not provided by centos7, but used for our project so it would be nice to include. Ezstream also was used earlier the only issue we had no way for db use as far as I remember. So ezstream is a good choice, but if possible please take a look for ices includes also. |
|
|
Also I didn't get the idea about fedora changes, should I repeat my tests for some other rpm of icecast? |
|
|
mesb1, We check the Fedora package sources first and use them as a base when we add a package to the AlmaLinux OS Synergy Repository[1]. Currently, the both sources are identical. - AlmaLinux OS: https://git.almalinux.org/rpms/icecast - Fedora: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/icecast/tree/rawhide The reason of the sharing links from the Fedora sources and redhat bugzilla to help you find the core reasoning behind of dropping the /var/run/icecast. Considering this change is made on Fedora 17 times, our tests are fine and if yours are fine too. We would like to publish the icecast package on the AlmaLinux OS Synergy Repository. About the source clients for icecast. Since the https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ezstream is available but not the https://icecast.org/ices. Since Ezstream has more features (We also used it to test icecast), we started to build it and planning to publish with the icecast on AlmaLinux OS Synergy Repository then consider building of ices. Maybe you would like to give a ezstream a shot and help us with testing? [1] https://wiki.almalinux.org/repos/Synergy.html |

Any hope to get both packages in repos at the end of this year? |
|
|
mesb1, We are planning to release next week after finishing testing of Ezstream with icecast server. I will ping you once they are available on the repos. |
