andrewatfornax got a reaction from scott001 in MariaDB 10.2 Compatibility?
Hi @scott001,
I had a call with our database guru on the team today, and he tells me that Revive Adserver sets non-strict mode as soon as it connects to MariaDB, so, Revive Adserver should be compatible with MariaDB 10.2 with its strict mode enabled.

andrewatfornax got a reaction from Twobeef in Custom Query Parameters
Two ideas:
1. Use two (or more) different variables, e.g. "reisen=true", "rostock=true", "katze=true". Then you can target accordingly.
2. Combine everything into one variable, e.g. "thema=reisen|rostock|katze". Then you can target accordingly using the "contains" or "regex" options.

andrewatfornax reacted to Avindale in Hardware Requirements?
Hi @andrewatfornax ,
Thanks for the information, I thought this was the case, I just wanted to be sure as I progress and Didn't know if I should invest in hardware first or test with a VM. Very helpful!
-
andrewatfornax got a reaction from Avindale in Hardware Requirements?
Hi @Avindale,
No, unfortunately, there isn't - it's so hard to recommend a specific level of hardware, because the possibilities for configuration are huge (O/S, webserver, database, opcode cache, all manner of Revive Adserver configuration options), and what people want to do with Revive vary as well (something to manage ads for their hobby site all the way up to commercial operations serving billions of impressions a month... maybe even a week or per day).
My recommendation would be that if you're starting out, and you're not sure of hardware scale - don't buy any hardware! Get a VM from provider that will let you scale up (or down) as per your requirements - you can always migrate to dedicated physical hardware later on, if that's your desire, once you have an idea from using a cloud-VM first.

andrewatfornax reacted to McColley in Buyer Beware Commercial Plugins
I'm a web designer with a client who wanted to use Revive as a Self Serve Ad Buying platform across a number of sites he owns. I discovered Revive, put it on a server to test and fell in love. I have a client with a network of sites that he wanted to sell ads on.
When I visited what I thought was the best-known plugin developer, I found many plugins that seemed to overlap in purpose. But I figured that I couldn't be the first to want this functionality. So I asked a question: "What plugins do I need to turn Revive into a self-service platform."
I got a reply listing 4 plugins. The client approved the $240 and we waited. Instead of plugins to Revive, I received a collection of files to copy directly into the system. That should have been my first clue.
I next discovered all the files were encrypted. The pages created were horribly designed and we couldn't change them. I complained and got some unencrypted files. I soon discovered the functionality was as poor as the design. I could create an ad package and you could log in and buy it. But there is no way to see what was purchased for the buyer - or the admin. I complained and got a few new files and some of them were unencrypted so I could style the pages - but there was still a lot of missing functionality. I started asking for a refund.
Long story short, I was asked what the process should look like - so I laid out a simple workflow. Then I was told we would need to purchase the source code for a number 2.5 times our original investment. after at least a dozen emails I finally was told that buying the source code wasn't going to give me that functionality, instead would need to spend 10 times our original investment.
I saw another post where a developer said they were unimpressed with a plugin maker. I wish I had seen it before dealing with this one. I think Revive is a great project but beware of the people trying to make money off of it with plugins that don't work.

andrewatfornax reacted to Matteo Beccati in Upgrade Path From Phpadsnew?
@olabre See my original reply. Testing upgrades from 2.0.11-pr1 is now part of the release process. Tags should also be compatible, as long as you are not using functionalities that have been removed.

andrewatfornax reacted to Jim in Running playable ads
Thanks @andrewatfornax, due to the specifics of this campaign, we have had to focus on running it through DFP. We will be coming back to this though as its better for us to have our own ad server. Will try the HTML5 banner and see how that goes.
-
andrewatfornax reacted to Ian in Delivered different code of ads via HTTP and HTTPS
Yes ofcourse
BTW you seem to be correct : https://documentation.revive-adserver.com/display/DOCS/Banners+Not+Delivering+over+SSL
Try changing your code to :
<!-- Kontextová reklama Sklik --> <div id="sklikReklama_53418"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> var sklikData = { id: "sklikReklama_53418", zHash: "ENAWPYZBMTXV9QCH9H5NJVRSK4QS24KDRXNFGP7BVIDQ2" }; </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="//www.<redacted>.cz/ad-special/sklik3/partnerapi3.js"></script>
And you should be fine.

andrewatfornax got a reaction from adus in Cron Task - site url to append to the end
Hi,
The domain that is passed in as the parameter to the crontab entry to run maintenance should match the domain that the Admin UI runs on.
As you are talking about a single install of Revive Adserver, with multiple URLs in use, you only need one crontab entry, as it doesn't matter what URL is used to access the UI or deliver banners, it's all the same database & set of statistics.

andrewatfornax reacted to scott001 in Scheduled maintenance issue / no statistics recording
Here is what I found. My cronjob, which worked fine for years like this:
0 * * * * php -f /home/site/public_html/revivieadserver/maintenance/maintenance.php >/dev/null 2>&1
suddenly, at least to me anyway, needed to be like this:
0 * * * * php -f /home/site/public_html/revivieadserver/maintenance/maintenance.php localhost >/dev/null 2>&1
The mysql restarts may have been just a coincidence, and my server auto-updated and installed a new version of cpanel or something else, but something changes and now I must include "localhost" in the cronjob.
I hope this helps someone else!

@OMG I believe you just need to make sure that This banner can be safely displayed inside an iframe (e.g. is not expandable) is checked in the banner-edit screen.

I found something in the file "plugins \ invocationTags \ oxInvocationTags \ adframe.class.php".
I realized that it is possible to change the structure of the iframe tag. I'm going to do some testing, if I succeed I'll put it here. Thank you andrewatfornax

andrewatfornax reacted to malmazan in Statistics send to two or more persons
Can't be done officially.
As a hack, I use addresses of this form in the email field:
[email protected]>,<[email protected]
Though you'll have to get it done manually in the data base
-
andrewatfornax got a reaction from Gregori Dalzotto in Custom Invocation Code
Yes, absolutely - Revive Adserver is open source, so you are free to change your code base however you like.
Unfortunately, we don't yet have great developer documentation, so I would definitely recommend using xdebug and a good IDE to allow you to step through the code as it executes.
