Details are as follows. -Server is Ubuntu 10.10 (LAMP) -Squid v3.1.6 - Squint V1.2.6 (working) - Mysar v2.1.4 (not working) - modified log location to point to /var/log/squid3 via web GUI http://x.x.x.x/mysar MySQL Squid Access Report 2.1.4 Current active users: 0 Current date and time is: 16-06-2011 07:39:12 Last processed record: 31-12-1969 17:00:00 Number of records processed at last import: 0 Last clean-up of the database was done at: 00-00-0000 wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysar/files/mysar/2.1.4/mysar-2.1.4.tar.gz Tar xvf mysar-2.1.4.tar.gz sudo tar zxvf mysar-2.1.4.tar.gz -C /usr/local sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysar/etc/mysar.apache /etc/apache2/conf.d/mysar sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart - Point your browser to the /mysar/ directory of your server and follow the instructions, for example: http://x.x.x.x/mysar/ Followed web installation guide for "new install" cd /usr/local/mysar/etc sudo cp config.ini.example config.ini sudo rm -rf /usr/local/mysar/www/install sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysar/etc/mysar.cron /etc/cron.d/mysar sudo restart cron cat /var/log/syslog Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 init: cron main process (3142) killed by TERM signal Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 cron[3568]: (CRON) INFO (pidfile fd = 3) Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 cron[3569]: (CRON) STARTUP (fork ok) Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 cron[3569]: Error: bad day-of-week; while reading /etc/crontab Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 cron[3569]: (*system*) ERROR (Syntax error, this crontab file will be ignored) Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 cron[3569]: (*system*mysar) WRONG INODE INFO (/etc/cron.d/mysar) Jun 16 07:29:35 Squid2 cron[3569]: (CRON) INFO (Skipping @reboot jobs -- not system startup) cat mysar.cron # mysar not only runs every minute but it also expects to be run every minute. # If you wish to change this, you need to adjust not only the cron entries below but also the $maxRunTime inside bin/mysar-importer.php * * * * * root /usr/local/mysar/bin/mysar-resolver.php > /usr/local/mysar/log/mysar-resolver.log 2>&1 0 0 * * * root /usr/local/mysar/bin/mysar-maintenance.php > /usr/local/mysar/log/mysar-maintenance.log 2>&1 # IMPORTER ## PHP - Slow but tested.
