Online Stats just stopped working...

Posted: Mon Jul 24, 2006 11:49 pm

A few days ago, my Online Stats and members online just stopped showing up in the user_info block. I think most ever online has also stopped working as well.

You can see the problem for yourself here: [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

and a working copy of it here: [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

Any ideas why this would happen?

BTW, it is not a block issue as this happened prior to installing the new User Info block.

Thanks.

Has anything changed at that time with your nuke_sessions table? I believe that most "user info" type blocks get their information from that table.

Did you by chance upgrade anything?

I believe that table should look like this:

`uname` varchar(25) NOT NULL default '',
`time` varchar(14) NOT NULL default '',
`host_addr` varchar(4 Cool

NOT NULL default '',
`guest` int(1) NOT NULL default '0',
KEY `time` (`time`), KEY `guest` (`guest`) ) TYPE=MyISAM;

With the exception of the "smiley face" of course... that should read "48" in between two parenthesis.

Oddly enough, I never touched a thing.

I'll have to take a look at that table and get back to you.

Thanks for the help.

I have not looked at the session management code in PHP-Nuke so I wonder if there could also be a php.ini setting that your host has changed. If you cannot find anything odd in the table structure or your files, you might ask them if they changed anything recently that could impact session management with PHP.

(I could be way off here, but just trying to help with "clues" as I think of them)
