Question / Help Facebook Live: Failed to connect to server.

[Carlos P]

Hola,

I'm working on a project for an NGO that requires from facebook live streaming so I decided to explore and play around with OBS. At the moment I'm having problems connecting with facebook live and it's kind of frustrating because I've tried everything already. When I try to stream to facebook I get this message: Failed to connect to server.
I've seen that other people get the same message problem but I couldnt find any proper solution.

Attached is the log file of my last attempt. Hope someone can help me :) this project can potentially help quite a lot of people.

Salud,

Carlos.

Hello - are you sure you can publish RTMP traffic on Port 80 on the network you are on? I've seen the RTMP on port 80 protocol being blocked on some networks.

I use this if it helps - http://www.therealtimeweb.com/index.cfm/2004/10/2/fms-port-tester

I made an account just to help you guys out because I struggled with these for 2 days.

Basically after trying everything out. The solution for me was to call the Internet Service Provider and they changed some things to allow HTTP Proxy to pass through the firewall!
