A theme for Icecast 2.4.4 made to emulate the appearance of Windows 95.
Thanks for checking out my Icecast95 theme! This theme is made to work with Icecast 2.4.4, and has been tested to work on the icecast-kh branch. This theme has not yet been tested with older Icecast versions. It may work on other versions, but I won't guarantee it.
The following are instructions on how to "install" this theme. These instructions were made with a Linux system in mind, specifically Ubuntu 20.04.
NOTE: You will need root privileges to do this. If the account you are using to do this does not have root privileges:
- If doing this from the terminal, run "sudo su".
- If doing this from a file manager, run your file manager as root. For Gnome setups, run 'sudo nautilus'. If you are using a different desktop environment, find your file manager name and run it by typing 'sudo {file manager name}'.
-
Navigate to /etc/icecast2.
-
Back up the "admin" and "web" folders elsewhere in the event that you need to revert back. Once you have them backed up, go ahead and delete these folders from the Icecast directory.
-
Copy the "admin" and "web" folders from the archive into /etc/icecast2.
-
In your configuration file, likely icecast.xml, scroll down to the paths section. Here you'll find this line:
<webroot>/usr/share/icecast2/web</webroot>
Change the path in this line to /etc/icecast2/web. Do not worry
about <adminroot>, you won't need to change this.
-
Start your Icecast server if it isn't already running. If it is already running, restart it.
-
Navigate to the various pages and check to make sure everything works.
NOTE: Windows will only appear on the status page if you are streaming to the server. If you are not streaming to the server and you only see the taskbar, nothing is broken.
NOTE 2: If you run into issues with Icecast being unable to display the XSLT file, use chown to transfer ownership of the files to the user running the Icecast server. Example, if user is running the Icecast instance, run the following:
chown user admin/
chown user admin/*
chown user web/
chown user web/*
If everything is good, Icecast95 is "installed"! Enjoy!
