song requests

[robert193]

Hi I've been running radiodj for the last few days and must say it's awesome, I was wondering the fastest method for adding tracks on the fly. As for example a call in request so as to get the song ready for play.

thanks

If someone is just calling in for a request then the simplest way would be to drag the track into the queue. If they have requested the track before calling in then drag the track from the request plugin into the queue.

In the online request screen.



L/R
Auto refresh.
Refresh (by hand).
Remove from the list (set played selected track).
Auto import in the playlist.
Set in top playlist (or bottom).
Show history online request list.
Set with sweeper in the playlist.

More to read in the tutorial.

As I am using a web builder program for my site and cannot use php or wordpress, I am assuming impossible to set up Requests template on my web site in conjunction with RadioDJ.

Noting wrong with this page.
Must be something else.

I'm with Jhonny on this one sounds like something somewhere on the network between you and the webserver  that is possibly being blocked

That's as best guess I can give. Have you checked if you DNS is updated correctly i know you use No-IP.

[Jhonny]

i know you use No-IP.

Every month you receive an e-mail from NO-IP that you must confirm the further free use for a month!
If you don't, yours will be removed.

Did you reboot your router?

If you didn't reserve the radio computers network IP in  the router settings then it's going to assign the computer a new IP every time it reboots. And that  is going to kill the script.

You have to look at the DHCP settings in the router to lock down the IP and then set the port forwarding for port 3306 to that network IP

[RFU]

The only other answer is your host is blocking 3306

The php script and the plugin behaves the same for all users, the only difference is the firewall (the windows one, the one from your router and the one from your web host) and if the MySQL user is configured to be able to connect from other hosts.

@strawbs89, what is wrong with you? There is no need to post the same things over and over.
Like i already said, since the script and plugin works for other users, the problem is either from your side or from your web host. More than that if the station appears offline, the php script cannot connect to your MySQL server, so the plugin is not involved on this, SOMETHING (99.99% a firewall) IS BLOCKING THE SCRIPT-SERVER COMMUNICATION.
We cannot do anything from our locations!

[Marius]

Create a new file named "checkme.php" and add this content to it:

Code Select Expand

<?php
    $host = "XX.XX.XX.XX";
    $port = 3306;

    if (!$socket = @fsockopen($host, $port, $errno, $errstr, 5)) {
        echo "Offline!";
    } else {
        echo "Online!";
        fclose($socket);
    }
?>

Replace "XX.XX.XX.XX" with your actual MySQL computer IP, upload the file on your webserver from which do you want to run the requests script, the access it using your browser and tell me what happens.

[Marius]

can you send me the link?
Send in the PM also the IP to your server to see if from my location it sees the server as online.

Marius I got same problem. Can you see me says sucess and your checkme.php says online yet script says server offline. Port 3306 is open.
