Videocache is no longer in development.

videocache does not cache video when i changed my ip address

by mustafa raji on 22 Jan 2012

hi
i had installed videocache with
squid 2.7 stable9
ubuntu server

first the videocache was working very good and caching video than i just change the ip of the server to test it as a transparent server using mikrotik nat role.

the videocache has stoped caching the video, for clearence this is videocache.log

Hi Mustafa,

I don't see any errors in the log messages you have pasted. Please check the description of the option min_youtube_views in /etc/videocache.conf and set it to zero. Please contact us with your videocache.conf if the problem still persists. Don't forget to restart vc-scheduler after changing the option.

Thank You!

thank you MR.kulbir
the cache was working normally after i reboot the machine the min_youtube_views by default 1000 i change it to 0 to disable this option

Seems like youtube is changing his URL, there's a lot of videos using partial content, check the final part of your URL: range=4751360-7127039

Saludos.

Hi Carlos,

I checked and everything seems to be working fine as of now. Anyway, I'll keep an eye on it.

Thank You!
