Title: Joomla 1.5 vent on home Windows 2003 Server
Post by: Nickthestick on March 19, 2009, 06:42:38 AM
Hi there,

I just saw your vent module and I did like it compared to one other I could find. I'm designing a couple of websites and I need to have a vent status for them so I am trying it on my guilds site.
http://grahamlan.dnsdojo.com

the webserver is on a Windows 2003 with the latest mySQL, PHP, and Joomla! in my home so I have full control over the ports. My vent server is being hosted in dallas through Gamedaemons.com

I have gotten almost everything up and running (except for theme changes) but the vent module still isn't connecting. so far this is what I have done:
- Opened up the port for my vent on my router.
- Gave full permissions to the ventrilo_status.exe
- installed it into my site
- Configured it
- Checked vent to make sure all the permissions were correct.
- Restarted the server.

Still it comes up as could not connect. Anything I might be missing?

Did you verify that the vent server allows for remote status?  In the setup.

Yes and all the options are checked.

You did set your OS to Windows in the back end, correct?
