That probably means you have another program on your computer already using that port. You could figure out what it is and stop it so your shoutcast thing will work.

 

If you're using linux, or osx, etc you can use the command

netstat -tulpn|grep ':51990'

I'm not sure how you'd do that on windows. Maybe google it?

On Windows, the below works to see if the port is occupied.

netstat -abno|findstr 51990

It won't show process name though in the findstr'd list because the findstr only shows lines with the matching string, and the process name appears on a separate line in Windows. Just remove the "|findstr 51990" to get the full list with process names.

first get this:

http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/cports.html

 

find the program that is using the port 51990 and reconfigure it/close it/terminate it

configure your shoutcast software to use port 51990

make sure your computer can be reached from the outside, you need public ip and not be behind a nat, your router must be configured to allow tcp port 51990 or your router must support/have upnp enabled

go to http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and enter your ip and port 51990 and if it can see you that means everything is working on your side

 

ip addresses starting with:

127.*

10.*

192.*

172.*

are local ip addresses. those can't be accessed from the outside world

 

to find out your public ip address go to:

ip addresses starting with:

192.*

 

 

Just to clarify this one, it's 192.168.*, Other IPs in the 192.* range are in fact allowable public IPs.
