Streamroot DNA™ delivery works from the origin and CDN of your choice. Use the following tutorial to correctly configure your Apache server(s).

What you need to configure:

  • Enable CORS

  • Allow RANGE & OPTIONS requests
     

How to do it in your httpd.conf file

For our application, the configuration of nginx with rtmp-module is done inside the httpd.conf file, found in <installation path>/.

In this tutorial we will show you what needs to be added to httpd.conf to support OPTIONS and range requests.

 

HTTP Section

The httpd.conf file defines what the server will make available on HTTP from it's filesystem, and how it will be made available (range requests authorization).

 


# Add a rewrite to respond with a 204 EMPTY on every OPTIONS request.
	RewriteEngine On
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} OPTIONS
	RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1 [R=204,L]
   
#set CORS headers
   Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
      
#always set these headers for OPTIONS And Range
# you can add more headers as needed - this is the minimum
   Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "origin,range,accept-encoding,referer"
   Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, HEAD, OPTIONS"
   Header always set Access-Control-Expose-Headers "Server,Range,Content-Length,Content-Range,Date"
