No data is showing, not sure why. I setup a campaign as it was described in the following STM tutorial: http://stmforum.com/forum/showthread...osper+tutorial.
So I have it setup as a landing page with the LP JS code, my landing page offer click links to the php redirect script and I've setup my postback url with the affiliate.
Currently my offer is setup in test mode with the affiliate but when I hit the link generated for my campaign I don't see any updates to my prosper202 campaign overview, day parting or any other panel. I'll take a look at the prosper202 log files but I'm baffled as to why I don't see any data and was hoping maybe someone could quickly point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Ken
Try looking in the the Spy tab to see what traffic is going through.
Also, select the filter for "Show All Clicks" rather than "Show Real Clicks".
You should be able to see some clicks there when you test your links
Interesting, I tried that and still show no data. I wonder if its because my prosper202 instance is on a separate vhost... I put in a symbolic link to the tracker202 sub directory and things click fine but still no data. I will continue to investigate.
Obvious question is obvious, but - you're running on a dedicated server or VPS, right, not shared hosting?
Prosper gets very confused on shared hosting a lot of the time.
Assuming that's not the case, when you say you're using a symlink, how's that set up? Sounds like that could be the cause of the problem.
I had a problem like that when I was using .htaccess files to rewrite the URLs.. it turned out the problem had to do with aliases and virtual hosts.
It's possible that prosper is looking for the url links in a certain format. You may want to try taking it out and just putting it in it's own dedicated folder rather than using symbolic links
@caurmen I'm on AWS so no shared hosting.
@JasperP -- that's what I was going to do next to validate.
Try clicking to the link that the JS generates on your lander and see if it gives some kind of error.
This would help seeing what's causing the error.
@bbrock32 -- I'm going to spend this afternoon debugging. The odd thing is everything functions as expected on the client side. The campaign link, the redirector (using php redirector not the js redirector) however prosper just doesn't register. Going to back out of the multiple vhosts first and see if that just magically fixes everything.
Okay so I went down to just one vhost and things seem to work now. I just need to figure out why exactly it was breaking before but I don't really feel like debugging that atm...
@yellowstone - on a related point, you may want to run a few benchmarks to check that AWS isn't slowing your tracking down. If you're on one of the higher-I/O instances you should be fine, but the basic AWS instances have a reputation for terrible I/O performance.
