Server Status Web Page

[cubber]

I am looking for a simple script that I can put on a web page that will display the server's status (ie. UP or DOWN) and maybe include an uptime report.

I would also like it to display a list of currently logged in characters with level/race/class and zone info.

Does anyone have something like this currently in the works?

Thanks!

You can use a PHP Telnet script to get that information. However you will need telnet functions turned on the eq server.

If you are familiar with PHP scripting I will post a section of code for you to use. However you will need to edit the code for what suites you. If you are not familiar with PHP I would try and find someone that is.

Thanks for the reply, I am working on learning php, and currently have a basic understanding of it. I would not mind checking out the code and seeing if I can make sense of it.

To turn on the telnet function I just edit the server's xml file correct?

Thanks.

i would be interested in the php code also, if it's not too much trouble that is =).

This is a partial code from my new EQ Editor release fixing to come out. This is built in a class, have fun. Feel free to ask questions.


Also some of the telnet code I copied from someone else, I have changed most of it but the majority is still intact.

PHP Code:

class telnet {

    // Variables
    var $message = array();
    var $connection;

    // Connects to the World Telnet Server
    function connect(){
        global $cfg;
        
        // Open Socket Connection
        $this->connection = fsockopen($cfg['telnet']['address'], $cfg['telnet']['port']);

        if(!$this->connection){
            $this->message[] = "Error connecting to World Telnet Server";
            return false;
        }else{
            fputs($this->connection, sprintf("%s\r", unserialize($_SESSION['EQ_EDT_USR'])));
            usleep(125000);   
              fputs($this->connection, sprintf("%s\r", unserialize($_SESSION['EQ_EDT_PWD'])));
            usleep(125000);
            return true;
        }
    }
    
    
    // Close the Telnet Connection
    function close(){
        fclose($this->connection);
    }
    
    
    // Server Uptime
    function uptime(){
        fputs ($this->connection, "uptime\r"); 
        usleep(125000);
            
        while (!feof($this->connection)){
            $ret = fgets($this->connection);
            if (ereg("Uptime", $ret)) {
                $ret = str_replace("$user", "", $ret);
                return str_replace(">", "", $ret);
                break;
            }
        }
    }
    
    
    // Zone Status
    function zonestatus($zone=''){
        fputs ($this->connection, sprintf("zonestatus %s\r", $zone)); 
        usleep(125000);
        
        while(!feof($this->connection)){
            $ret = fgets($this->connection);
            
            if (ereg("$Server:", $ret)){
                echo "$ret \n <br>";
            }
            
            if(ereg("avail", $ret)){
                echo "$ret \n <br>";
                break;
            }                
        }
    }

Thanks for posting the code, seems I just get a blank page though when I load it. Currently the only things I changed were I added the php code tags, and I changed the 'address' to my eqemu server's local IP address and 'port' to '9000'. I enabled telnet in the eqemu xml config file and restarted the server. When I telnet to the server using a command prompt in windows I am able to connect and issue commands like status and who all.

I must be missing something... any ideas?
