Have I missed something again?

I can't help noticing that my sig has disappeared (again). Is it anything sinister or should I not worry?

:eek:

If it broke the rules, it might have been deleted by a mod. If they do, they normally put in a bit of text saying look at the FAQ though, so it probably isn't that.

Just the hosting service deleting the image / going down?

Its a screwup on my server... I'm just in the process of fixing it now

Garp · 4 Mar 2007 at 11:56

....and fix0red.

Sorry guys, I needed to rebuild my server yesterday, and I thought I'd got everything working fine, but forgot to double check the folding sigs

Thinking of which I'd better double check the cron process is working too.
Ubuntu doesn't add the GD component by default (which is used to create images dynamically), and for some reason it wasn't liking the font file until I put in a fully realised path to it. *shrug* Ahh well.

Yes, must make sure the pr0n process is working.

Good work garpy

Ah, all sorted now, thanks....

Thanks Garp - much appreciated

@Garp

Hi mate, was wondering how do you get the stats for the sigs? I am in the process of knocking up a stats page for the foldy competition but I need to find a way of getting it to automatically updating the stats. Don't fancy doing it all by hand

Talking of sigs... I just noticed mine isn't working anymore. I don't post here often, so maybe the url changed a while ago?

mine is pointing to http://www.paulgraydon.co.uk/fah/fahsig.php?id=kinnison&r=255&g=255&b=0

is that wrong?

Kinnison.

yes - change it from www.paulgraydon.co.uk to bliss.paulgraydon.co.uk and it'll work fine

edit: odd - the sigs show us as 37th not 32nd as it should be :confused:

kinnison · 4 Mar 2007 at 14:36

..and my team position is 20th! I wish

Unfortunately I've dropped to 24th due to slacking.

ahh yes - and I now have over 650k points though my position is actually correct

This should sort itself out when the sigs are next updated I guess

Looks like I have a few residual issues to deal with.. the DB I used was about a month old (stupid me forgot to backup the DB before the rebuild)

I'll sort that out tonight.

edit: Whoops.. I'm a numpty

DELETE command denied to user '*******'@'localhost' for table 'teamrank'

Forgot to give the cron process user enough rights to the db.. *whistles innocently*

'tis sorted

Sooo Garp... how do you get the stats for your sigs

It's updated every 4 hours or so I believe. I just open that file inside php, and parse the data and pass it to a mysql db.

SiriusB · 4 Mar 2007 at 18:12

Ahh simple as that. Nice one mate.
