Videocache 2.1 is here :-) Check for changes and new features in this version. for your free upgrade!!
Hello all. I'm getting the infamous following in my videocache.log
DOWNLOAD_ERR YOUTUBE An error occured while retrieving the video
The video file name is created in tmp folder with 0 bytes.
I'm using Slackware 12 with the default packages of Apache and Python ( I did install properly the needed modules). I'm also running with no probs squid 2.7 STABLE 5 along squidGuard 1.4.
My current setup uses the zapchain proggy to use both programs.
Any hints would be more than welcome
Cheers,
Hi!
Two possibilities,
1. Your directory permissions are not correct. The /var/spool/videocache and its subdirectories should have 755 permissions and ownership should squid:squid.
2. Your squid proxy doesn't allow the proxy to use itself as a proxy. I mean add an acl that will allow the proxy to access internet via itself.
Thank You!
Bizarre.
Both the permissions and ownerships are correct.
I have added in my squid.conf the following but no luck.
acl localvid 127.0.0.1/32 X.X.X.X/26 (where X.X.X.X ofc is the real IP of the proxy)
Is it wrong ? Should the acl be inputed in a different way ?
Thanks again for the quick response
Cheers,
*Edit*
(where X.X.X.X ofc is the real IP of the proxy
I ment the real subnet IP's :)
Hi Vaylane!
The acl should be like this
acl videocache src x.x.x.x/y
http_access allow videocacheAdd these lines and then check!
Thank you for considering videocache!
@Admin
My poor poor eyes. I had left the rpc_host value to 127.0.0.1. Once I filled in the same IP as cache_host and proxy it all went smoothly!
Thanx for a great piece of software ;)
Cheers,
Hi Vaylane,
Never mind :) Hope this will help you cache stuff :)
Thank you for using videocache :)
