I'dbe curious if the problems we have been seeing with triggershave been addressed in this latest build. I have notedthis down for WSC to look at in the near future, butif others wanted to test this area.. it would be goodto get results from different users with differentplatforms.To first test that triggers are working:create a file called hitLog.txt and make sure itis readable/writable by your webserver group.hitLog.txtIPDATETIMEthen, create a 'test.html' file that includes the WebDNA:[appendfile file=hitLog.txt][ipaddress] [date] [time][/appendfile]then, in your trigger admin, enable a trigger thatpoints to that file with the timing/schedule:* * * * * 15(fires everytime the second hand equals 15)Then, in a terminal, do a 'tail -f hitLog.txt' (inthe same directory as that file)You should see a record happen every minute near exactly on the15 second mark.The bug I am seeing on one of the machines I am working onis that no matter what I put in the scheduling.. the triggerfires exactly every second.The other possible bug has to do with enabling / disabling triggerswithin the ISP SandBox admin. That would be a second test to perform!..but for now, if people wanted to report back with this test,it would be helpful feedback for the development team.Donovan-- Donovan D.
