main.asc

probably a stupid question but i don’t know anything about java programming(sorry).

With FMS, you need to put a main.asc file in a directory of the server application.

I have a visio conference application running perfectly on FMS but my society would like to move to Wowza media server.

So what should i replace this main.asc file with ?

Or where should i put it ? (but i guess i can’t use it with wms).

The Wowza Pro server does not support ActionScript on the server side (main.asc). So yes, you would need to recode this functionality in Java using the Wowza Pro server side API. The API is documented (document Server Side API Guide and FMS to Wowza Pro API Mapping) and the Creating a Custom Module chapter in the User’s Guide walks through the process of creating a Java project in Eclipse. I suggest you walk through this example and give it a go. Just ask lots of questions on the forums and we will jump in and help.

I don’t understand the question. What do you mean by single point of entry?

Does wowsa have a single point of entry similar to the main.asc?

Sry, what i was getting at was that with FMS the server will look for main.asc in the application folder (then if that doesn’t exist it will try several other variations) that will be run first when the application is started. With more investigation i think i found my answer with the configuration of the Applications.xml to load a custom module. Thanks for the prompt reply!
