Erik, could you please explain one thing: in my case I using logging requests and not using logging views. In the Revive Adserver v3 I have only two requests to server per page,( and request for each click if it occurred.) In Revive Adserver 4, using async js, I also have only two requests per page showing all banners. But. I have additional requests (lg.php) in case some zone is empty. For what? Why filled zones doesn't produced any additional requests, only for displaying banners, but each empty zone pruduce a request (lg.php). It seems like a bug

I have more than 10 call OA_show using SPC. It was not so easy changing from spc to async and back during tests, so I put litttle helper function fo it: so now I switching between methods in one place. comment spc call: <!--script type="text/javascript" src="http://DOMAIN/delivery/spcjs.php?id=1&amp;block=1&amp;charset=UTF-8"></script--> redefine QA_show: <script> function OA_show(zone_name){ document.write('<ins data-revive-zoneid="'+OA_zones[zone_name]+'" data-revive-id="UNIQUE_ID"></ins>'); } </script> add async script <script async src="//DOMAIN/delivery/asyncjs.php"></script> it was fine for me, may be it can help you too )

But, how can to disable log request for empty zone? Is there a way instead hacking code?

On my previous installation (Revive Aserver v3) I made little hack in the revive code to make CTR calculating base on request (instead impressions, because counting impression produced additional connections). If I start using async tag in Revive Adserver v4, need I have to make these hack again, or, may be, another correct way exist?

ok! thank you for response! these zones are empty on purpose, I know why they empty right now and its correct ) Question apear because now I migrating from revive 3, and there is no such behavior on it. My plan was in migrate from 3 to 4 first, and agetr it start to playing with async tags. Main purpose is reducing connect per client (now I have about 5 mln pageviews per day, so now I have ~10mln requests on little farm with one backend. And each additional request from pageview can make our farm drop conections (, and second porpose in stop using document.write on my pages. Erik, one more question please ) On my previous instalation I made little hack in your code to make CTR calculating base on request (instead impressions), (because counting impression produced additional connections). If I start using async tag, need I have to make these hack again, or, may be, another correct way exist?

Does anyone know how to disable request lg.php in emty zone? I have more than 10 zone on my page using SPC, and time by time some of my zones stay empty, without any banners, so each empty zone makes one lg.php request (with null size img), but I no need so many connections. How to disable these lg.php requests?

I found th solution by myself ) reading install.log, I found that I use mysql 57 with gtid enabled, and installer can't create backup using "create table select * from ...." so I put into my.cnf: enforce-gtid-consistency = 0 gtid-mode = OFF and I succesfully finished migration ) I think developers have to add check for gtid in installer;

I see the "Failure while upgrading schemas" after click "continue", I back to the start page of upgrade, and it is cycle ((

problem not in folder permissions I check the code, and as I see "add banner" permission was removed from client users, only for managers.

Who knows, why simple advertiser can't add new banners?

After creating user for some client, it doesn't have permission to create new banners. I look into the code, found permission_id=3 for adding banner, and try to activate it in the www/admin/advertiser-user.php now I can change this option, but it still don't work, Think this option was deleted advisedly. Who knows why? How I can grant user permission to add new banner?

Yes ( And another one: it may cause for double impressions. For one od external ad system I catch that it loaded twice, first on hidden div, and second on real

I see API folder in my installation in www folder (so it aceessable from internet). 1. what is it? is any documentation for use API with my instance of revive ad server 2. Is it really need to have this api folder, if I noy using api?

No any ideas?

Thank you! I clearly understand about all risks using this method, but in my case it will be very usefull, because: 1. i'm using Revive for media articles rotate, and measuring their effectiveness, (not for commerce ad) so 2. it's not so bad for me if have over- or under- count, and it's enough have only roughly statistics. moreover, 3. I'm not have very powerful hardware, and now I have to switch off log impressions due system overload and moreover ) 4. I think it will enough for me if revive can display ctr based not only on inpressions, but based on requests. I also understand that I can't have clear staticstic in this case, but even so, it much better than have no statistic due ad-servers overload

Thank you! I'm using Single Page Load, and it also have this option )

I have several equal zones. (for example - 3) And I have several banners (for example 3 or more) Each banner linked to every zone It's no need to show one banner twice, but I want to rotate banner over several zones. Is it possible to configure as server to show one banner only one time at the one page?

I'm not expert in JS, but I use very simple method, even without jquery. And it work fine for text, html, and other ad system code banners. in the real slot I put only div: <div id="OA_show_7"></div> then single load config <script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[ var OA_zones = { 'my_zone_name' : 7 } // ]]> --></script> at the bottom of pages, avoid delay main content rendering //initial request: <script type='text/javascript' src='http://AD.SERVER>NAME/id=1&amp;charset=UTF-8'></script> //insert banner code in hidden div <div id="OA_container_zone_7" style="display:none;"> <script type='text/javascript'> OA_show('my_zone_name'); </script> </div> //copy rendered code to real, visible slot <script language="JavaScript"> function g_e(el) {return document.getElementById(el);} if (g_e('OA_show_7')) g_e('OA_show_7').innerHTML=g_e('OA_container_zone_7').innerHTML; </script>

I'm not using flash banners at all and I don't want have users request for fl.js Is any correct way to disable requesting it from spcjs.php?

Hi All I'm successfully using single page call on my site, it really cool. Is it possible to do not only "single page call" for show banners, but something like "single log call" to log shown banners. Now each shown banner make one request liki this: http://REVIVE/delivery/lg.php?bannerid=16&campaignid=1&zoneid=16&loc=1&referer=REFERAL&cb=254db10232 May be it possible to make only one log request for all banners? I have one VPS server with 4 cores and 2GB. I'm using mysql, nginx and php-fpm. And now I can server only 20-30 mln impressions per day, but I need to serve about 80-100 mln impression per day. And I think if I can found decision for single log call it will possible.
