Sorry, I do not have this information, but I'm pretty sure that this isn't possible. 2. I do not need the use of encrypt capacity because I'm on a local network, but I should use a VPN solution for that case, if I got a device out of my local network for example. Cya Hi there.

I created a subdomain (log..com) and put the files in that rather than a /syslog directory. I could access it fine for the install process it's just post-install that the page is blank. Is it specifically looking for a folder called /syslog or is it ok as the root files of a domain? I don’t have any problem accessing the folder.

You have to config vhost for apache to access the directory for phplogcon other than /var/www/html/syslog or make an alias for that, for example: Alias /syslog /usr/share/syslog :) Absolutely!

I actually already had them installed as this server has been running for a while now but when this site wouldn't run I upgraded to the latest version of the prerequisites just to be sure that it wasn't because I was running an older version of something. The error_log doesn't have an errors listed for this site. I ran tail on the log and then opened the site up and it doesn't create any new entries. The page is blank and when I view the source there's nothing there so maybe it thinks it's serving a blank page correctly? I have all the prerequisites.

Also, did you installed the PHP prerequisites? Hi,

Check your Apache’s log, /var/log/httpd/error_log, it will tell you what’s wrong when you access the index.php.

Also, did you installed the PHP prerequisites?

Have you any idea why this might be or what I can check to get it serving properly. It seems to be adding entries to the database but it's not serving the webpage properly so I can't view them.

In flat files we have logrotate, in that case there must be some sql scripts run thru cron to delete entries in mysql database, otherwise it will overwhelm the server easily. So in companion to this, there must be the procedure used to truncate the entries below the required maximum Nice indeed, but another thing not mentioned is required too.

Sure MySQL CSV engine should be a very elegant solution in a case you have a huge data stream. But in most cases, this setup can handle the data. But with some MySQL tunning it can be good to handle such great data stream. Thanks for your comment! I really appreciate it. Hi piavlo,
