Authentication method is missing

When I restart the server I get these lines in the error log. I’m not overly worried since they are shown as warnings, but I’d still like to understand where they’re coming from and how I can get rid of them.

Hi

As far as I know this looks like rather a very old version of Wowza or an incorrectly installed version.

What version are you using?

Jason

You might have overwritten jar or config files with past version, or malformed Authentication.xml

Richard

3.0.4 running on Centos 5.7

It doesn’t appear to be causing any problems, I’d just rather not be seeing those messages.
