ABOUT UTLOGCHECK
What is it?
UTLOGCHECK is a multilanguage (english/german) PHP/MySQL-based system to keep track of your players&spectators, storing and searching IPs/GUID/Date/..., featuring Statistics, fakefactor-system, multihunter, GUID-relating comment-system with 10 different commentcolor-types, password-protection, FAST logfile-parser and much more!
What can i do with it?
For example: Someone called "Player" g is owning your server and your clanmates want to know who it is ... No problem for UTLOGCHECK if he played on your server before! GOT HIM! Another Example: You want to know, which people play the most on your server. Simply klick the "Stats->Players"-Link on the left and you'll get a quick overview. Example3: What's the best/worst time on the server? With UTLOGCHECKs built-in statistic-functions you can easily watch the number of hits for every hour.
You can really see many things out of the search-results and other data. Be creative and have fun with it! :)
Who needs it?
Every server-admin who dont wants to write down guids every time, who wants to get success-statistics of his server, who wants to know who a "nickfacker" is and so on. UTLOGCHECK is a neat tool to help you keep your server clean.
Who did that stuff?
{GGMJ}3DC was the one who progged the script. You can reach him via the Forum, there is a separate section for UTLOGCHECK.
What do i need?
- Webspace with PHP- and MySQL-Support
- UT2004-Server with ElMuertes ServerJoinLog-Mutator (just install it, it's easy(watch "Installing"-Section of this File))
- FTP on your UT2004-Directory (if you're usually uploading new Maps and Mutators that way (via FTP) it should work)
How to install?
- Downloading and installing ServerExt on your UT2004-Server:
1.1 Go to http://ut2004.elmuerte.com/ServerExt and download the latest version of ServerExt. If Page is down or file doesnt exist anymore, a backup of that file is here: http://ggmj.de/utlogcheck/ServerExt-v106.zip 1.2 Unpack all files contained in the .zip and upload them to your UT2004-Server 1.3 open your server.ini (or ut2004.ini or whatever name it has :)) 1.4 add a line
ServerActors=ServerExt.PlayerJoinLog
to the [Engine.GameEngine] - Section of the .ini. Scroll all down to the bottom of the .ini-file and add
[ServerExt.PlayerJoinLog] bExternalLog=True sFileFormat=PlayerJoin%P%Y%M%D%H%I_%S
Transfer it back to your UT2004-Server and restart the Server. 1.5 Play a Match and test if the logfiles are written correctly (check Directory "/UserLogs"). Their filename should look like: "PlayerJoin30147200511111317_73.log"
1.6 ready for next step :)
- Installing UTLogCheck on your Webserver
2.1 Download latest Version of UTLogCheck from http://ggmj.de/utlogcheck/ 2.2 Unpack all files contained in the .zip to a new directory on your Harddisk 2.3 open config.php with a plain-text-editor of your choice (notepad, edit, vi, pico, ...) and edit the variables. If you dont know something, please ask your hoster. Enter the Value between the "".
Example Configuration:
$plserver ="localhost"; // MySQL-Server-IP: mostly localhost, let it unchanged or ask your hoster. $pluser ="web1337"; // DataBase-Username (ask your hoster if you dont know) $plpass ="KnQSyXPf"; // DataBase-Password (ask your hoster if you dont know) $pldataBase ="usrweb13371"; // the database to be used (ask your hoster if you dont know)
$ftpserver="123.123.123.123"; // FTP-Server-IP $ftpusername="gameserverftpuser"; // FTP-Server-Username (if you upload Maps and Stuff you needed this PW too) $ftpuserpass="gameserverftppass"; // FTP-Server-Password $ftplogs_dir="/ut2004/UserLogs/"; // Path to the PlayerJoin*.log - Files on FTP-Server. If you dont know: do a manual connect to your FTP-Server and watch the directory-Structure
$standardlng="en"; // Language at startup ("en" or "de") $numcharscomment=10; // Chars of the comment to be shown in Search-Results $numcharscommentoverview=100; // Chars of the comment to be shown on "Show Comments"-Page
2.4 Running install.php to setup the password and add the tables automatically. Also needed to reset your PW if lost.
Go to the Webpage you installed utlogcheck on and run install.php The Table-Structure will be added to the Database you specified and on success the script will ask you to set a password. A Password with more than 6 chars is recommended, but it also works with less than 6 chars. PLEASE NOTE: the password is case-sensitive. ALSO NOTE: If you forgot your password, you can set a new PW with the install.php
2.5 IMPORTANT!: NOW DELETE the install.php . If it's not deleted, anyone who accesses that file can set a new password! No need to worry about "how to change your my password later" THAT's included in the main-script. Also if install.php is not deleted, utlogcheck will not work. Delete it ;)
2.6 Now you should be able to use utlogcheck. go to your webpage and run the index.php (or just go to the directory of it, the main-script will automatically open.) Enter your password and a CODE displayed over the form. If you want to be "always logged in", check the box below.
HAVE FUN WITH IT!

[UPDATE] Changes/addons from UTLC V1.0 to V1.1:-Date/time of the last action inserted (and "XX hours, XX minutes, XX seconds ago") will be displayed on the welcome-page -Added a link to the comments-overview-page after adding/editing a comment.
Cursor automatically jumps into form-fields (like the search)
changed german text "logdateien" to "logs" changed german text "kommentare anzeigen" to "kommentare"
Top100Matches. That function will show the matches with the most hits and the date the match started. If there are matches with same hitcount, it will be ordered by the date too.
changed colors of the Logfile-Parser(aka "checklogs")-Status-Indicator from fade black->blue to fade blue->white
"Fake-Factor"-System now contains the colors from the comment-system.
"Top 100 Players" now contains the colors from the comment-system. "Top 100 Players"-Stats in prev. version were grouped by the name, now it's grouped by the GUID(hash)
HITSPERDAY2-Statistics UTLC now displays a nice graph (like in the search-results) for each type of collected data. This includes statistics for number of different guids, names, ips and matches. NEW: Plain-Text Export-Feature for your search result. Choose via checkboxes which rows you want to export; then click "Plaintext- /Printversion". Greetz to ocbc for that feature-request^^
