OBS failed to connect to server

[angelognanamuthu]

Hello, I have an active site, and I am having trouble in live streaming. I installed the server and followed all the steps. But I am getting this error in OBS if I hit start streaming: Failed to connect to the server.
The connection timed out. Make sure you've configured a valid streaming service, and no firewall is blocking the connection.

can you make a telnet to the port 1935 for RTMP connection?

are you sure your NGINX is running?

[angelognanamuthu]

How do I check if my NGINX is running?

terminal: ps aux

start up nginx:
cd /usr/local/nginx/sbin/
./nginx

[angelognanamuthu]

Ohh so what do I need to do? Can you help me, please?

[Ishi-k2]

[angelognanamuthu]

I used AWS EC2 instance as my server.

[Ishi-k2]

I use this Ubuntu-16.04-x86_64 server. You need to reinstall the server to Ubuntu-16.04-x86_64
Nginx-rtmp apache2 mysql youphptube all runnin good

[angelognanamuthu]

do I upload this to my terminal?

[Ishi-k2]

no. unzip it to your desktop and read

[angelognanamuthu]

ok I will do that and get back to you.

[DanielnetoDotCom]

For AWS EC2 you must make sure the port is open.

to make a telnet, you should be able to find instructions on google.

make sure you will make a telnet from your PC to the server

telnet [yourServerIP] [port]

Something like that:

telnet 123.123.123.123 1982

[angelognanamuthu]

So do you know anyone who is using your code for their website and it's active?

[Ishi-k2]

I don't know if some other is using my nginx.conf
I format my ubuntu twice yesterday.Youphptube installed twice too and my conf working just fine all the time.

Hey so I opened port 1935 in AWS EC2 instance, and I can connect to the server and OBS is streaming. But I am not getting any output in the site. When I tried to connect the telnet to port 1935, I am getting a message stating "Connection closed by foreign host." What does this mean? Could you kindly help me, please?

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Hi

Not sure but if you can connect with OBS it should be fine with your connection

make sure you select the option listed transmition

[angelognanamuthu]

Hey so I did that, and the live streaming worked, and I received a notification in the site, but I am getting this error. Could you help me,

please?
