Newbie in EC2: Few questions

[qazillo]

First at all, excuse me for my bad english

I belong to a simracing community. We usually broadcast our racing events using FME. We are looking for some profesional soft and we find Wowza in EC2.

Well. I am able to set up and get running an instance for EU zone. I open the ports for FTP, SSH and the other required for Wowza. The server is up because if I put the public DNS in the browser, it responses me "Server=0". Ok.

I can access FTP in active mode (i see the folders) and, with a linux terminal, i can get ssh access. I can drive into the folders, list them with ls command... etc...

We want to made live broadcasting, but yestarday, for testing purposes, I downloaded the examples folder, in order to install them and play an ondemand content using the adobe flash player in examples/SimpleVideoStreaming/client/simplevideostreaming.html

I uploaded the folders "examples" via FTP to /home/wowza. And with ssh I tried to run "install.sh", but it launched me an error in line 10 (bad end of file). What is the way or the correct folder to install the examples? Is not /home/wowza the correct place? Maybe other?

If i type in a browser

http://[public-dns]:1935/examples/SimpleVideoStreaming/client/simplevideostreaming.html

I don't see the html, only "server=0"

Well, this is the first question. I have more, but it is better to solve one by one.

Thank you in advance!

This is the correct result. You can now start deploying applications, or using the examples that are installed by default on EC2 instance: Try the SimpleVideoStreaming example. The files in the /client folder can be moved to your local computer or a web server, then open simplevidoestreaming.html, which loads simiplevideostreaming.swf, which is the Flash application that connects to Wowza. Enter:

Server: rtmp://[ec2-public-dns]:1935/vod
Stream: mp4:Extremists.m4v

Thank you very much!

OK, successfully tested, video on demand and live rtmp streaming.

Do you have idea how to implement JW Player with live Wowza Module rather than the example html?
