Ds:irm

[Stecyk]

Hi,

Earlier we learned that many "/|DS:IRM" entries in our logs are inaccurate. In my particular case, about 80% of the entries in my log contain this "/|DS:IRM".

Optimistically, maybe on a good day, about 1% of those entries are true "DS:IRM". The rest are fiction. (It is easy to tell that entries are fiction. Simply find a Google referrer, plug in the exact same search term, and then see the result. DS:IRM or no? In my case, always NO.)

I thought this DS:IRM was going to be fixed in a short period of time. Given that this DS:IRM reading is grossly inaccurate and that it has been several months, why not shelve it for now? Or put differently, what purpose does it serve leaving it on? When it is ready for show time, bring it back out again.

Regards,
Kevin

why not shelve it for now?
In particular, this section:
1) FQ_tagged_logging_irx [on|off]
**Enables or disables IRX tagged logging**

Add that to your 'www/.htaccess' file, and it will turn off IRX tagged logging or more appropriate, add it to the .htaccess file where your DS:IRM is rooted...

The (tentative) fix for this will be going in the next Apache/PHP release, which is being held up due to a memory segfault I'm still trying to isolate... There is no ETA at this time and it won't be released until the problem is nailed...

There are many others that this module does work for, despite the potential inaccuracy... If you do find it to be inaccurate because the file is being called external to the DS:IRM, then facilities are available to turn it off as noted above...

I added

FQ_tagged_logging_irx off

to both .htaccess files that I have. I hope that turns it off. I'll know in about a half hour or less.

Thank you. :smile:
