Logging

Running V1.03
Having a problem with the logging.

I have the permissions of speeds.log set to
-rwxrwxrwx 1 nobody other 3264 Jul 31 15:35 speeds.log

logger.php seems to be writting to the file, but I don't actually get the speedtest numbers in the file.

Sample line:
2007-07-31 15:26:18 1.2.3.4 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8.1.5) Gecko/20070713 Firefox/2
.0.0.5 /speedtest/logger.php --- ---

Problem related to getting values into logger.php maybe??

if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['testspeeds'])) {
$testspeeds = $HTTP_POST_VARS['testspeeds'];
} else {
$testspeeds ="---\t---";
}

running PHP 5.0.0 (cli) (built: Sep 20 2004 21:04:06)
And apache Server version: Apache/2.0.50

Brad,

Give me a few days on this and I'll get back to you - I am on vacation and will test when I am back.

Did you modify the speedtest code at all? If so, what mods did you make? What does the code look like now?

Also, make sure that in logging.php (or logging.asp), the very first line has <!-- echo -->

Best regards,

Jim.

I have renamed the speedtest.htm file to index.htm in or speedtest dir.
A couple html changes in that file, but thats about it.

I've messed with the logger.php script to try to get things working. No joy though, so I've just put back the original.

It does log, just does not log the actually speedtest numbers (aka the values passed into logger.php)

Brad - Still need a little time - I will get to it.

I have the same problem - tried it on a couple boxes with diff setups/versions of php+ apache to boot.

The problem appears to be that $HTTP_POST_VARS['testspeeds'] doesnt get set (or passed on)...

if you run php the way it should be (with register globals=off), then don't expect to get the speed results logged into speeds.log.


If you must have this working, change register globals on in you php.ini - until the maintainer fixes it.

Hi Chris,

Can you explain that in greater detail?

Thanks!

Globals = on and it is still not working. Anymore ideas?

TIPS: Could possibly be not passing the variables. ??

Thanks for sharing a very nice utility!

We installed the ASP version of 1.03 on a microsoft server running IIS 6 and have tweaked everything we can think of but still unsuccessful with logging.

we've followed the renaming instructions for logger-to-db.asp,
we've given IUSR / modify to logger.asp and to the mdb file (for kicks),
we've moved the mdb file to the root directory of the server and then modified the directly path statement to this file in the logger.asp file.

Still no joy. Is there a version problem or has there been success in logging with ASP version 1.03?

We did find an entry in the server's error log indicating that it had received an invalid SQL statement.

Thanks again and for any additional tips!
