Did you get any kind of message? It should say either it was installed, or it can't connect to the database. If it installed, just go to the directory you installed it in and login.

If it gave you the logo and nothing else then thats something I haven't run into. If thats the case, PM me and I'll try to figure out what the problem is.

Just return to the root folder and it works from there. :)

I've just installed it ok on a localhost server and got 2 plugins installed.
I can see the interface but I'm seeing some errors, so it may need to go on a subdomain (live web server). I'll try that in a while.

hmm...i'm not a php expert or anything, and this is the error im getting:


Warning: require_once(vars.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/face/public_html/lambda/login.php on line 2

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'vars.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/face/public_html/lambda/login.php on line 2

That's a missing file error (vars.php).

I got it setup OK on a subdomain, no major problems.

Oh, don't forget to upload the 2 plugins once logged in,
because the left side menu don't appear until they're in.

Gonna experiment with it now. Nice work Automatica :)
 
Two things:

You need to have PHP 5, won't work with PHP 4. I'll make this more clear in the next release.

Make sure the owner has write permission in the directory you are installing in.

After those things are taken care of, drop all the tables in the database, delete all the files in the directory and re-upload all the files from the zip. Run the install again and see if it is still only giving you the logo. If it is, go to your web server error log and copy all the errors from the file install.php and PM me.
 
Sweet grandmother spatula HOW DID I MISS THIS THREAD UNTIL NOW? Mad props and all the +rep you can handle Automatica, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

EDIT: How often should we schedule the cron job to run? Every 24 hours? Every hour?
 
Getting the same error(s)

Line 2 of login.php is trying to include vars.php.

I do not see a vars.php in the extracted archive, it seems that the file was not included?

Lines 134-145 of install.php create vars.php dynamically with all your database variables. If it can't create the file it must have something to do with the write permissions.

I'm going to look into it when I get home tonight.
 
I'm getting the 'vars.php' error as well. For me this is becasue I get a blank screen with the logo on top once I submit on install.php i.e no success or fail msg.

I also running on php5. However I have installed this in a sub directory .. should this cause a problem?

Thanks for releasing such a script. It's got awesome potential. Good luck!
 
I have not had a chance to test the script yet, but have a question. What kind of referrer cloaking is supported?

As far as I know, Prosper202 uses only double-meta refresh which has some significant limitations - hiding less than 100% referrers with often slow and buggy redirects.

Seems like a new tracking platform is the opportunity to fix this the right way. Here are a few resources I came across that could help -

Referer.us Premium URL Redirection -they have hosted referrer management services and claim to do better than double-meta refresh:

Hide Referer Advantages
No HTTP Referer, Guaranteed
This is what this service is all about, deliver absolutely any NO-HTTP-REFERER in any circumstance. DMR (Double Meta Refresh) is last year's technology, but we use quadplex referer removing tactics, which include Meta Refresh, Javascript Location Replace, iFrame Parent Post and Flash getURL Function. We will repeatedly check referer remover results and will only redirect a url after HTTP-REFERER got successfully removed.

http://www.wickedfire.com/affiliate-marketing/88070-how-hide-referral-info.html A recent thread about cloaking, in fact with a reference to the above service.

http://www.wickedfire.com/newbie-questions/78892-double-meta-refresh-cloaking.html Discussion of the classic double meta refresh

http://www.wickedfire.com/newbie-qu...ble-meta-refresh-affiliate-cloak-linking.html More about double meta refresh

So the question is what does LambdaTracker do about referrers now and how should it potentially handle referrer cloaking in future versions?
 
To add to the post above, does anyone know if using SSL cert on the domain strips/erases referrer 100% of the time, flawlessly?
