There is no native support for this, no.
However, depending on your system, you may be able to mount the S3 Bucket as a filesystem, and point Revive Adserver to that mount point for image storage.

Hi @manuel,
Based on the order PHP "and" and "or" are applied (http://php.net/manual/en/language.operators.precedence.php), what you have is equivalent to:
(Germany AND Windows) OR (OS X) OR (Linux). So, you need to set up in the UI:
GEO Country Germany AND Operating System Version any Windows   OR GEO Country Germany AND Operating System Version any OS X OR GEO Country Germany AND Operating System Version any Linux I think that should do what you want, in one banner.
... This is where setting up targeting channels starts to make sense, so that you can more easily apply one or more channels.

I updated revive adserver from version 4.1.1 to 4.2.1, using the following path /adserver and everything worked correctly. Later  I changed the path to / , and the project started to redirect to the login page every time you click the options of the revive adserver. Can someone help me with this problem ?

Thanks for this - i have been emailing Madhu with regard this
I think it is an error on my template forcing it full width - i tweaked the css a bit and all is fine now
thanks for your help

I found it, it was about probability of a zone, linked to the campaign's type !
 

Hi,
In this case the Revive installation process didn't fully install the default plugins. you need to install "Delivery Rules Plugin".
you can goto plugins menu then click browse icon with select Delivery Rules Plugin.zip file and Install.
Or
Try this https://documentation.revive-adserver.com/display/DOCS/Revive+Adserver+Broken
 
 

I've made several attempts to upgrade from ver 4.1.4 to 4.2.1.  This entailed updating PHP to 7.2 as well as uploading a new SourceGuardian file.
On Step 4. Configuration I keep getting the error message "One or more plugin files couldn't be located. Check install.log file for more information.
The log file says:
Starting file-check for plugins... Plugin: openXAdvancedMobileTargeting - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXBannerTypes - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXDeliveryLimitations - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openX3rdPartyServers - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXReports - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXDeliveryCacheStore - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXMaxMindGeoIP - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXInvocationTags - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXDeliveryLog - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: openXVideoAds - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: apLoader - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: apVideo - Unable to locate XML files Plugin: TrackingPlugin - Unable to locate XML files Finished file-check for plugins ...
I've verified that all these XML files exist in the current install.  
Would really appreciate any insights into this issue.
Thank you.

Thanks, but neither option helped solve the problem. Could someone help me with this? Access the screen www.altosagitos.com.br/ad and clicking on accepted, it stays on the same page and does not go forward. Installing Revive Adserver 4.2.0-rc1

Hi, yes I need to recompile PHP to include ZIP extension. I will do it this week and let you know.
Thank you

Thanks for letting us know, Roy. The link has just been fixed.

Thanks. It looks like there are plugins at https://www.reviveadservermod.com/billing-modules/bidding-system-basic
I'll research them a bit more.

I too went through all of this and then I figured out it was the VAST version incompatibility with the Google IMA sdk.
Install a VAST 2.0 compliant plugin and all works again with all the popular ad networks.
I'm using latest VideoJs and IMA VAST plugin https://github.com/googleads/videojs-ima 
Below is how I load up my advertisers, adtagurl would be your revive server if you can serve VAST 2.0 compliant ads.
var player = videojs('content_video');   var options = { id: 'content_video', adTagUrl: 'https://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/ads?sz=640x480&iu=/124319096/external/single_ad_samples&ciu_szs=300x250&impl=s&gdfp_req=1&env=vp&output=vast&unviewed_position_start=1&cust_params=deployment%3Ddevsite%26sample_ct%3Dskippablelinear&correlator=' };   player.ima(options); // On mobile devices, you must call initializeAdDisplayContainer as the result // of a user action (e.g. button click). If you do not make this call, the SDK // will make it for you, but not as the result of a user action. For more info // see our examples, all of which are set up to work on mobile devices. // player.ima.initializeAdDisplayContainer();

Solved this problem myself. I extracted the html5.class.php and html5.display.php and placed them in the plugin/html/oxHtml directory and the HTML5 option showed up and is serve-able by the Ad server. 

Solution which seems to work is to create an html page with the invocation code inserted and then serve the html page in an iframe each time the modal is called. Happy to hear any alternate suggestions.

Hi. Tested now again to change it to Override and after several maintenance, campaign continued to delivery although it shouldn't. 
But if I create new Override campaign with time-hour delivery rule it is working fine. So it's just in case of changing contract type.

To everyone else that I haven't already contacted, if you are interested to help pls PM me. I'll send you my IP and SSH key to see if I can find any more clues.

Thank you for the reply @andrewatfornax,
I have reinstalled again, and believe it was a file permissions issue. I now have data in my buckets!!
 

Hi,
I'm interested in overal statistics by campaign type. (eg. Remnant, contract, ...)
I want to see Revenue/Clicks/Impressions for all my contract campaigns without the noise of remnant campaigns.
I want to see the evolution of total remnant impressions compared to all impressions. 
Is this possible today?
Thank you.
Tim
 
 
My own reply:
Sometimes you find the answer yourself the minute after posting the question. All my internal remnant campaigns belong to the same advertiser. As there are plenty of reports available by advertiser it is straight forward getting the info.

Hi @dmitry-p,
At this stage, no, core Revive Adserver does not have any mobile SDK support, just the standard invocation methods documented.

Solved my own problem.
Basically it worked the first time, but it left a lot of old crap in the plugins folder.
I just started fresh and did NOT upload the old plugins folder. The install failed to install any plugins. So, I just did InstallNewPlugin-->Import Code Only
and I think we have a nice clean install with the old data/config.

Hi @ukescapee,
Based on what you are describing, that sounds like a valid solution.
 
Another solution would be to ensure that the targeted banners are in exclusive campaigns, but the default banner is in a remnant campaign.
 
Also, another other solution would be to put all your geo-targeted banners into one zone, and the default banner into a second zone, and the zone-chain the two zones.
That way, if a user visits from a country that has a banner which can be shown in the first zone (full of banners that are targeted to specific countries), then they will see the banner for their country.
However, as all the banners in the first zone are targeted, if they are not from any of the countries listed, then no banner will be able to be shown - and then it will chain through to the second zone, and they will see the default banner there.
 
Either way, this would save you from having to target the default banner to only deliver when users are NOT from the target countries.

Hy @andrewatfornax,
Thank you for your feedback.
I advised my client on the "Video Ads plugin for Revive Adserver".
Video Ads plugin for Revive Adserver
https://www.adserverplugins.com/advanced-video-ads-plugin-for-revive-adserver/ My client also chose to work with LibCast to broadcast these videos.
https://www.libcast.com/
For the moment we have a small problem because the plugin generates the vast2 by specifying the type "video/x-mp4" while LibCast expects "video/mp4".
So if someone has the same need, I don't recommend this combination right now.
But we are in contact with the plugin editor and libcast to encourage them to find a solution on their side.  
But that's our problem.
I'll come back here to change my advice if we find a solution.
 

Ultimately I fixed this, and it was caused, apparently, by an advertiser that I created years ago. Re-creating the advertiser and ads solved the issue.

I'm trying t figure out why my login page doesn't display properly like the following in this page: https://www.revive-adserver.com/blog/portfolio-item/login-screen/
Just shows like this:
"Revive Adserver
Authentication
 
      Welcome to Revive Adserver
Enter your username and password to log in
     
Username:     
Password:     
     
Forgot your password?"
How do i get it to show the other way as in the link i sent
 

yeah you can
