Podcast Producer Error Codes

When you are using Podcast Producer, whether you are looking in your log files on a server in Server Admin or whether you are looking in Console on a client, if there are any problems submitting jobs you should find a numeric reference code. The meaning can be cryptic, although I’ll try a little bit here:

-500 = Camera agent went offline

-501 = Podcast Producer agent timed out

-502 = Agent failed to communicate

-600 = Tunnel protocol mismatch

-601 = Tunnel could not connect
