Has anyone upgraded their prosper yet?

Anyone run into problems upgrading at all?


10-12-2011 05:00 PM #2 vidivo (Member)

Works fine for me! Just had to redo a few mods I had but after that it gets the job done and also i did get a few . seconds faster redirects!


10-12-2011 05:03 PM #3 bsb85my (Member)

Nope. I have no problem after the upgrade. Works fine including the mod.


10-12-2011 05:32 PM #4 heavyt (Senior Member)

what mod are you referring to?


10-12-2011 06:58 PM #5 shoent (Member)

works like a charm, really like it much cleaner and love the kw lp ctr function .redirects are faster also as promised, nana is the bomb


10-12-2011 07:25 PM #6 rawservices (Member)

No problems to report here. Everythang is smooth :-)


10-12-2011 08:34 PM #7 tech2 (Member)

No problems for me too. Everything works fine and better.

Anyone want to test it for mobile and let me know if it improved click discrepancies. Also, please test feature and let me know if the javascript in the redirect is fucking shit up or not.

I had a slight issue (the one described here: http://getsatisfaction.com/tracking2...et_tracking202) I freaked the fuck out for a few minutes, but everything seems to be back to normal. The fix they described worked for me.

edit: actually, it brought the UI back but it's now slow as piss.

edit2: I think I finally got it working right...learning about file permission codes. something new every day. ha.

I had the same problem steezy reported but I harassed Beyond Hosting a little and it's all working smoothly for me now.

@Russia: I ran a small mobile test last night.

P202: 164 clicks.
NB: 148 clicks.
JT: 167 clicks.

NB & P202 recorded the same conversions.

Good idea. I think I got mine figured out on my own, but I'll bug them to see if they'll double check. Their support has always been really helpful and tolerant of my occasional idiocy.


10-13-2011 06:41 AM #12 IvanOng (Member)

works perfectly for me so far... hopefully no bugs...

If you need to updated your file permissions, understand the risks of using SSH, and don't like using FTP to update your permissions, you can put this into SSH:

find /p202/install/ chmod -type d | xargs chmod -v 755
find /p202/install/ chmod -type f | xargs chmod -v 644

Just note that your path, depending upon where SSH lands you, may be something like:

/home/domain.com/public_html/p202-install/

Just done mine, took like 3 secs


10-13-2011 08:11 AM #14 extremesg (Member)

.... and redirects are MUCH snappier™

As an added bonus, the new version now shows your Database size, and gives you the option to REMOVE all click data (just leaving your setup campaign stuff) with a mouse click.

No more fiddling in phpMyAdmin Ivan Ong!

Working great here. The only Mods I had to redo were Morgan's tip for widening the overall view. http://www.wallofmonitors.com/2010/1...ou-should-too/

A couple of custom CSS changes I made to make the columns for Date, Offer, Keyword, etc... wider or narrower so they view better both on computer and ipad.

The only other thing that I need to add back is Besmir's costs update tool.

Seems like they integrated Jasper's CTR and CTRtard's subid MOD, so no need to put those back in.

Overall, the interface seems faster to me. The only issue I have seen is that when using Chrome to view the P202 interface, the HTTPS (I view stats over SSL) has a strike-through the HTTPS in the address bar. Tyler at Beyond Hosting said this is because some of the interface elements are being delivered over HTTP and some are HTTPS so Chrome is reflecting that (doesn't affect anything else over SSL). I do not see this behavior in Firefox.

Ya done what now?


10-13-2011 05:55 PM #17 tijn (Moderator)

anyone got any stats on p202 normal vs p202 memcashed?


10-14-2011 12:45 AM #18 The Angry Russian (Moderator)

Man I'm debating going back to 202, but my workflow with HasOffers is so tight now. Also, its another layer of redirects so not sure I added benefit is worth it for me.


10-14-2011 11:39 PM #19 polarbacon (Moderator)

I might give this a try as well....maybe run a few tests to see how it compares with some other stuff i am using....


10-15-2011 09:42 AM #20 tijn (Moderator)

so no one has tried to run 202 with memcached option???? just to clarify what this does is that it loads data from memory rather then the DB. It should offer a significant increase is speed.

i'm running it with memcached but i haven't done a test without memcached..but i'm pretty sure that it will improve the speed and reduce the server load..so i would suggest to install it on your server

was it difficult to get up and running?


10-15-2011 06:59 PM #23 andymin (Member)

I just asked Liquidweb to enable it for my CPVLab and 202 installs

not sure cpvlab is memcached enabled.


10-16-2011 04:35 PM #25 BeyondHosting-Tyler (Member)

It's not.

The only reason to use memcached is to handle a mysql failure, it caches the redirect values so that mysql isn't required for each redirect.

MySQL itself caches the query because it never changes, its probably faster to let mysql handle it than memcached to be honest. You need to have a proper mysql configuration for that sort of performance. I've tuned servers for none BH customers from 40QPS to 2000QPS in the middle of a campaign.

Important stuff folks! :-)

Works great so far. And I'm loving the lightning-fast response of the Beyond Hosting support team.

That's why we keep telling everyone to just host prosper202 with the Beyond Hosting guys. All things considered, it's a total no brainer.

What did you do?


10-17-2011 03:28 PM #29 extremesg (Member)

Maybe we could 'twist' Tyler's arm into giving us a 'quick cheat sheet' of things to check in our config for apache / mysql etc.
I know we all run different vps boxes etc., but am sure there must be some general guidelines we can check out.

Would also be interested to know if there is a way to stress test our servers (preferably without bidding on facebook.com!) from a script or something,
which would give us an initial benchmark of what our boxes can currently handle in queries per second.

To test your box just use blitz.io , does the job perfectly!

First step is to ditch liquidweb, 2nd step is ditch apache, 3rd step is let tyler work his magical powers on MySQL and file system tuning.

Sorry had to flaunt
