No activity on server with WebRTC stream,

Wowza Streaming Engine
#1

I do have an issue with a client, who tries to send a webrtc input stream through out web application, current chrome. I do have a console, which does not show any issues, i could’t find any activity on server, there is no matrices change in server, even i checked in trans coder nothing there, not show the stream incoming at all, even though there is no webrtc error. Current chrome, most recent Streaming Engine version.

i checked with log i getting log there, but it could’t help me out

When watchdog is disabling the connection, it means that Wowza Streaming Engine is no longer receiving requests from the application. If Wowza Streaming Engine doesn’t receive a message from the client in 90 seconds, the internal client object is disabled assuming the connection is dead.

Send us a support ticket and we’ll take a closer look to see why it’s not connecting.

I’m having a similiar problem with my log just filling with the:
VHostWatchdog: run: doWatchdog took too long. Interrupting thread.defaultVHost

Was any solution found for this problem?

Hi @veer_siniha, were you able to solve your customer’s problem? If so, can you explain what was needed?

@Rose_Power-Wowza_Com, Do you know anyone else who has this problem and has solved it?

Thanks.

My apoligies @Caio_Farinazzo as I just happened to come across this follow-up question today while doing some webrtc cleanup in the forums. I searched the watchdog error in our tickets and saw you discussing it with one of our engineers.

I hope his suggestion helps resolve it for you and if not, you can solve it together since you had asked about this such a long time ago, so sorry about that.

If you enabled any of the following properties in the / container, go ahead and disable them and see if the issue happens.
jitterBufferDebug , jitterBufferDelay , logPacketLoss , rtpDePacketizerWrapper , useNack

If you enabled the jitter buffer from here:
https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-turn-on-an-rtp-jitter-buffer-and-packet-loss-logging-rtp-and-mpeg-ts
Please also disable it.

If you enabled the server side buffer:
https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-fix-unaligned-video-and-audio-with-a-server-side-sort-buffer
Please also disable it and test to see if this resolves the unresponsiveness of your server.
