I know my first place to start when dealing with a 500 Internal Server error is to get rid of my cached files. There are other steps if that doesn’t work, but for me, at least 75% of 500 Internal Server errors are resolved with a flush of cached files.

Hope this helps!

So far I’ve setup my API keys, and given my playerupdate.php a 755, however I am getting an error : Status: 500 Internal Server Error. I’ve got my host to confirm that it’s a coding issue, and one even start to debug it a little, but of course left it up to me. Could this be related to my server API running CGI/FastCGI, is this the same as yours?

As for the cronjob: This is a script that should be run periodically by the server itself. In Linux this is fairly easy to setup but often web providers do not offer client cronjobs. Another option would be taking the code and running the update on another machine. As long as the configuration is the same it won’t matter where the job is started.

It is currently not writing any log file. I didn’t think it would be needed since the information you get out of an update is minimal.
I does not check the cache, it actually flushes it and grabs most recent data once the update completes, then caches the new results.

Usually you are fine to run without the cronjob. Most users will update their stats often anyway and if someone you wish to compare against hasn’t updated in a while you can also do that for them by clicking their name.

Great work on your clan page. I like how you embedded the default template into your website. If you put some effort into it you can change the CSS and templates to fit your site even better.

Added you to the list of users

I’ve modified the graphics a bit to fit in my site.

And moved your link to the bottom of the main site, rather than only on the stats page

I’m setup and running, got a few players & my API keys loaded.

Just wondering how to kickoff the cronjob? (Haven’t used them before)
Does it check the cache or is it set on a timer? Also where does the logfile save to?
Looking into the code but haven’t figured it out yet.

There are 50 unique medals in the game and 45 unique ribbons. Progress shows how many unique rewards you have to go to finish them all.

I will remove the Unique counter and combine it into a “Unique Progress” instead. It holds the unique value already anyway.
