WebDKP Server

[Necrojelly]

ok, checking for php_curl enabled. No point adding a check for mod_rewrite as the site won't load unless it's turned on anyway!

[Thellanorn]

I thought I'd give you an update.
I've been using the addon in our ICC 25 mans. We haven't downed first boss yet
However, giving dkp has been going good and one item was looted. Bidding failed due to player not knowing what to do so I just manually gave them the item via Award Item feature. Works great so far.
Good Job!!!
I'll be holding out to go to version 3.x until the fixes below are resolved.


Addon:
I've had to add some minor things in the code to get this thing to work with a standard dkp system.
1. DKP cap -- WebDKP_DKPCap = 1000; in WebDKP.lua, Awards.lua to just leave at max dkp if awarded.
...Be nice if this was an option in the UI.
2. Guild Filter -- We are a multi guild raid so I had to change filter off: ["Guild"] = 0 in WebDKP.lua
...Be nice if this was an option in the UI.
3. WebDKP_LogSort change way to 0
...Be nice if this was an option in the UI.
4. Silent bidding but version 3.0 sounds like it has that.
....I removed the line in WebDKP_CHAT_MSG_PARTY_RAID for this to work for me.
....With silent bidding I had to remove announcements that had !bid <amount> in the raid channel.
5. Added an option for player to just bid max amount. !bidall
6. Auto Awards saved in log to what boss was killed.
7. ICC 25 mans work so far except I need to figure out what gunship yell is for when event is won.
...Other 3 bosses in Lower Spire are good on just boss deaths events.
8. I haven't fixed this but there is a bug if someone type !bid need instead of !bid <value>
...Shame on them! lol
9. When players get dkp values via either !dkp or !list and etc. they get confused with the "-" after the value. They think they have a negative value.
10. I had to add a variable to keep track of minimum dkp value for bidding is allowed and automatically put in min bid in the UI bid panel.
...Be nice if this was an option in the UI.
11. We don't use Tier and it shows when user gets dkp via !dkp or !list Maybe have a way to turn this off via UI.
12. Changed !help to not show placing !bid <value> in raid channel being we use silent bidding.

Standalone webdkp server
I have confirmed that all my minimum requirements are met and yet it still doesn't work.
I downloaded setup v1.1
Fixed the config.php file as needed
Then copied folder to my www folder on my server.
Then tried to get to url mywebsite.com\webdkp\setup
All I get is a 404 error
I'm pretty verse in the above but so-so in php stuff and a bit less in  .htaccess
IS there anything I can do to fix this?
I would really like this feature in case webdkp.com goes down. Like it was for 2 weeks a couple weeks back.

Thank you everyone and excellent job on all the hard work you've all done!!

As you've noted yourself, some of the items you need done is already fixed in the 3.1 release of the addon.

As for the website; Did you get the latest release from http://code.google.com/p/webdkp/ ? (rc1d)

Also make sure that php_curl and mod_rewrite are enabled, as it says in the wiki.

[presidium]

Previously there were a few people that mentioned adding attendance to the website.  Has anyone started working on this yet?

[Zevious]

Hey Thellanorn, in regards to quite a few of the items you posted above, they should be available in version 3.1.
1.) Not available, could you simply reduce your awards?
2.) There is an option in filters to de-select only showing people in the guild . . .
3.) When you say Log Sort via 0, are you trying to sort a column in the award log? Should be able to click the column title to sort.
4.) There is an option for silent bidding in 3.0
5.) Good idea I will look at adding this eventually.
6.) Doable but can be determined based on your raid schedule and loot awarded. I may look at this eventually but have other priorities for now.
7.) I believe 3.1 includes the first wing, need to look at the other wings and add.
8.) Fixed, can't compare a string to a number- attached as bidding.lua I will release with next vs.
9.) Fixed, see attached WhisperDKP.lua, will include in next release.
10.) Few things that could be saved in the bidding UI I will look at.
11.) I've really been putting off working on any of the help stuff being in favor of working on other more important items. I think most of the users have it pretty easy once they learn the basics. Not much for them to know.

As far as the website goes, I currently have no plans to look at anything yet. I think the other users here are doing a great job so far . I may start taking a more detailed look later once I implement some other WebDKP features  but I'll have to see. I've also got something else I've started which will announce once it gets closer. However, it is dependent upon new features being added to the in game version of WebDKP.

Regarding the attached files, please keep in mind these files may contain other code from vs 3.1a which is now available on curse.

[Thellanorn]

Hello everyone,

That is good to hear most of these options are available in 3.1
I'll take a look at that this weekend.

1.) The DKP cap I use to mitigate inflation. Since ICC 25 has opened the maximum players are sitting at 285 dkp with only 1 looted item. I doubt we'll see it anytime soon. I did add it to the dkp rules so I need to restrict it somehow.

2.) I'm lazy, lol. I would rather not un check "Guild Only" every time I start the game or do a reloadui to save the data.

3.) Disregard, posted wrong spot from code. oops! *hides*

The rest looks awesome.
I'm glad to be of assistance.


My WebServer
I grabed the zip file from http://code.google.com/p/webdkp/wiki/WebDKPSetup
which lead to http://code.google.com/p/webdkp/downloads/list
Looks like the same zip file. I

Yup, I confirmed that php_curl and mod_rewrite are enabled.
Which leaves me to no clue what to do next.
Well, almost. Is it possible that the config.php is off?
I have nothing in "siteRoot"
My www, from the url side, is http://chaos.phpwebhosting.com/~esomdkp
I've tried that as well but maybe I have the wrong text in there?
However, with a 404 error, it seems more like mod_rewrite is not enabled. Even though I was told it was. I don't know enough about php_curl to say 404 error would happen from that.
I've even tried going to direct link to setup http://chaos.phpwebhosting.com/~esomdkp/webdkp/bootstrap.php but still a 404 error. In hopes that it would show me if those things are truly enabled.

I'll try that link you gave me Hjalte and keep my fingers-crossed


Thanks again for you help and input,
Thellanorn

It does sound like you don't have mod_rewrite enabled for that webspace. It may be installed but you need to enable it in the apache config file too.

To do that, add this to your sites virtual server config.

<Directory />
Options All
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

[Thellanorn]

Thanks Necrojelly,

I posted your comment to support on website and this was their response:

Yes, it is on. You need to put-

RewriteEngine On

in your .htaccess file(s) before you put the rewrite directives.

Any thoughts on what it could be.
I confirmed that the line of code is in the .htaccess file.

Maybe it's how I'm calling the setup?
I'm doing this link:
http://chaos.phpwebhosting.com/~esomdkp/webdkp/setup

[Necrojelly]

Well that is in the files so something must be particular to their hosting package that is stopping it from installing. I guess if you don't have access to the apache config there isn't any way to tell how they have it setup.

With the server setup with all the pre-requisits installed and active the site will automatically install just by using the address you've supplied. Any error is usually because the mod_rewrite isn''t active.

I know, as I had the same problem with my server initially, even though mod_rewrite was installed on the server. Putting the above in the apache config file was what I needed to do to activate it for the virtual server I setup

[Thellanorn]

Thank you for such a fast response.

I'll keep pushing them to make sure everything is working.

I managed to install webdkp on my server but i'm having a few issues with the management of the dkp table.

Firstly, I couldn't upload the log file from SavedVariables folder, i had to create a backup from the original webdkp.com site and load it on my server in order for it to display the log correctly.

Whenever I tried to upload the log file, it said "Empty Log File" and nothing happened.

Secondly, if I try to download the log file from my server a blank page is opened and nothing happens.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.  (my server is: http://dkp.veritas.im )

I ran in to this same problem when I first tried using my own site.  The lua file that you upload looks different before the upload.  Once you upload the file after a raid it basically deletes the file and downloads the new log.  Create the backup as you did for your initial DKP on the new site.  Then after you have awarded some DKP and items upload the file and it should work like a charm.  If you upload to webdkp.com and then try to upload your LUA file to your site you will get an empty log file every time.  Try opening up the LUA file before a raid and after and you can see teh differences I am talking about.

[Thellanorn]

Ok
I found a web page that showed me how to test if rewrite works.
Below Is what I did and low and behold, redirect works.

Step 1
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule testpage\.html http://www.google.com [R]

Step 2
http://www.yoursite.com/testpage.html

Reference:
http://www.vbseo.com/f77/how-check-if-mod_rewrite-working-my-site-21502/

Now I'm playing with .htaccess to see what the problem is.
Any ideas?

P.S.
Version 3.1a works great. Minus an error on bidding.lua for !bid #. I think it's suppose to be type(subcmd) instead of type(cmd) I have to confirm that yet.
Attendance log is very wonderful. Minus the issue that I can't manually end raid. I just need a snapshot at start of raid anyhow.

[Thellanorn]

Webdkp server up and running!!! Yeah!!!! *throws confetti*

The fix was in the .htaccess file
I had to add these two lines:
AddHandler custom-php .php .pcgi .phtml .inc .phtml~ .php~ .inc~ .html~
Action custom-php /cgi-sys/php5

Go figure

Anyways, thanks for all your patience and help.

Glad to see everyone helping each other out

Looks like Zedd got a start on opendkp.com. Until it gets further should I set up another board on here?
