Excellent Beats a ghetto Mapped Drive Option. I Look forward to checking out when more Capable, and not "Cleaning"

* I used to Run Dusty's Stats and had an Automated Script to Pull from my *Nix Webserver, and Download the Stats from the Dedi there. Problem w/ that was, his Stats Logged to a Database, and when logged, there was No UniqueIdentifier Set, so the Same Data that was already sent to DB was Duplicated.

Also, the Database had no problem reaching 10 MB in ~ 20 days or so. Is there a PHP Call I can Throw to have an IIS Box Hit an FTP, Replace the Current File, and process the Stat Script?

Here was the Nix Code I was Using:

exec("wget -q ftp://user:[email protected]:21/mtaserver.log");

That would Grab from the Root MTA Home Dir of the FTP, and I'd have my Log. Since the Current Stats @ Mta.funtimebliss.com are just reading from a Local Log, if I can use the Code Above on a Windows Box, or Similar, I'd be a happy boy

I see no problem in running the script on a PHP capeable IIS server... unless the Windows version of MTA server is using an other logformat.

Instead of executing wget.. you can use fopen to open the remote file in the mode needed.

Parse error: parse error in /var/fr4g/serverlog.php on line 60

only thing I changed was put the serverlog address as an absoloute path

[Stickybit]

I gues that you has got some wrapped lines after having copied the code to file. Remove these wraps, and give your webserver read permissions on the logfile.. and you should be up running.

Bugfixed version

The script has been slightly modyfied - so it matches version 0.5. Click on the "Bugfixed version" link in the above posting, to get the new version.

MTA team: Why do you erase the logfile when restarting the server? It would be nice if you just apended data to the logfile instead of emptying it on server starts.

nice 6 month bump

nice 6 month bump

He bumped it because he updated his code to work with 0.5... What's wrong with that?

[MAD_BOY]

yeah, Jani lacks common sense

anyway, nice to see that you updated this

[Stickybit]

Hey

Could anyone do a simple small script that only shows if server is offline or online.

Thank you.

[Stickybit]

That's not an easy task - since MTA traffic is UDP - and the software is closed source. A reliable script for that purpose would have to come from the MTA team, or from some nasty hacker / cheater who has revese enginered the MTA traffic.

No, use the ASE protocol, it's what http://www.game-monitor.com does.

[Brophy]

Yeah thats what i used, if you know php it should be a problem

Great little script....

But .....is there anyway to switch the the way the log displays as it reads from bottom to top.

Be nice to have it read from top to bottom.
