Hi,

We have setup a new Libretime instance. But we’re encountering issues with the playout. The log is showing this error message: Broker connection error, trying again in 2.0 seconds: ConnectionRefusedError(111, ‘Connection refused’)

Im not sure if this is a bug but I also filed a report at Github.Does anyone have a suggestions where to look at. It seems like something’s going wrong with the Celery services. All services seem to be up and running though.

**To Reproduce**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Clean install of Liberitime
2. Created a schedule with webstreams
3. Configured Icecast and Shoutcast
4. No sound on both streams

**Expected behavior**  
Sound on both streams

**LibreTime version:**  
[16bff4f](https://github.com/LibreTime/libretime/commit/16bff4ff9ea07d5fc82d8ce8e68b4209b32a0d4e)

**Installation method:**

- OS: Ubuntu
- OS Version 18.04 LTS
- Method: ./install
- Details: GIT source
