If so, i had to worry about customer getting double bandwidth for what they subscribe for. cobalt-serve 05-25-2002, 08:13 PM yes its true. i have now found that if you add a new site to the server the data is also lost. i now know what the fault is ThrottleRuntimeFile filename Context: server The location and file name of the runtime data file used to preserve state information across shutdowns & restarts. - [i]Originally posted by cobalt-serve I have installed mod_throttle on all 24 of our cobalt servers. when we restart the server the stats in mod_throttle keep resetting them selfs. and any bandwidth a site as used it reset. why is this ellebi 05-26-2002, 04:46 AM Originally posted by cobalt-serve ThrottleRuntimeFile filename [i am not sure what the file is] Context: server The location and file name of the runtime data file used to preserve state information across shutdowns & restarts. I think that a good location to put it is /home/tmp or /var/log/ Add to to httpd.conf ThrottleRuntimeFile /home/tmp/throttle.log restart apache /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart then check to see if it has created the file /home/tmp/throttle.log If you can't find the file you need to create it. cd to the directory where you want to put the file and create it. cd /home/tmp touch throttle.log I think that should do it. cobalt-serve 05-26-2002, 03:17 PM Hi thanks for your reply. i have done what you said <IfModule mod_throttle.c> ThrottlePolicy none ThrottleRuntimeFile /home/tmp/throttle.log <Location /throttle-status> SetHandler throttle-status </Location> but still not working. once appache is restarted all info is lost Originally posted by cobalt-serve yes its true. i have now found that if you add a new site to the server the data is also lost. i now know what the fault is ThrottleRuntimeFile filename [i am not sure what the file is] Context: server The location and file name of the runtime data file used to preserve state information across shutdowns & restarts. - Jeffyt 05-26-2002, 03:28 PM Make sure your permissions on your throttlelog are set to whatever apache runs as so it can write to the file. Hope that solves it!

Try chown'ing it to whoever apache runs as. Regards, Jeff cobalt-serve 05-26-2002, 03:39 PM My last reply shows that both apache and the log file are root.root Originally posted by Jeffyt Does your apache run as root.root or nobody.nobody?

My bad. ellebi 05-27-2002, 07:32 AM You can try with chmod 777 /home/tmp/throttle.log and see if it works, it should be a permission problem. cobalt-serve 05-27-2002, 05:32 PM I have now but the below server online. much better then the raq much faster too.
