Realtime auction logger (hourly refresh, may increase)

Also wtf why did you write this in C - is speed that much of a concern =P.

Hi all,

Auction tracking is dependent on people uploading their log files. For the first few days I left a toon idling in EC - yesterday I didn't sign in (I wanted to see if anyone else would hop on board to contributing their log files).

Today I forgot to sign in, so the last updates are when I was on last night.

To contribute your logs simply use one of the methods described on the site, or manually upload at:

Thanks!

Edit: The "vision" I had for this auction tracker was that people would use one of the log uploading programs to contribute in the background as they play their characters. This would allow us to collect auctions from all zones, not just EC while my alt idles there (although those are the most important).

Quick question to those of you who cannot resolve the domain - are you using a legitimate copy of Windows?

There is a DNS trojan and I am getting the feeling it may be included on the pirated win 7 copies.

Has anyone on OSX or a Linux distro had an issue resolving the domain?

If yes, then it most likely is something I need to resolve with my VPS host.

Hi all,

I was able to replicate the DNS failure to resolve under certain cases and have updated to use a different IP for the site - testing shows this fixes the case with failure to resolve (so you should all be able to connect now).

Hot damn I can connect. Nice fix sir.

Ok ill take a shot at uploading some logs later.

The C source code is there for download on the site if you want to upload logs automatically.

Right now it will compile perfectly under something like Cygwin if you install libcurl in your Cygwin install (however if you're going to do that, you could just use the bash script for the same effect).

I haven't compiled on windows in a very long time and am having some issues compiling under mingw32 with regex and curl support (after I get it compiled I'll put up the exe).

kk.. i think once you do that it will be easier for most folks to keep the auction tracker up to date.

Stupid VPS ran out of UDP sockets and required a reboot - site back up.

Not sure if it has to do with the DNS update I made today or not.
