Strange error message with Yahoo/MSN tracker

Discussion in 'Keyword Tracker' started by themetalpeddler, May 5, 2005.

    After some fiddling, I managed to get the advanced script to work and the URL accepted in my account but when I run the keyword tracker I get one long error message. I've pasted it below (sorry it's so long!) Any ideas whats up?


    The URL for my advanced script is http://themetalpeddler.com/ab.php
    Error message:


    The request returned the following error:

    Hmmm... looks okay to me. Is it for a specific keyword or anything?

    A similar message comes up for all the keywords I try. If I select Google only, then it's fine - no messages like this, but when I check Yahoo and MSN, I get the message "The request returned the following error:
    Unexpected result from your server:"
    with various long message below
    The tracker is then giving 0 rank for all words on MSN/ Yahoo even when I know there is a rank for some of the words

    What's a specific URL/keyword you are seeing it with (exactly as you have it entered)? I'll try it on my end.

    If you create a PHP script with the following:

    <?php
    phpinfo();
    ?>
    PHP:
    and then run it, it should tell you.

    Well, 4.3.6 really should definitely be fine... something funky is going on with the serialize() function on the server though. It's mucking it up a little bit for some reason.

    all ok now. Instead of using my webservers "create file" as I do with HTML, I did it in notepad and uploaded via FTP and that worked
