SchweppesAle Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hi, I have a script which executes and increments an entry within our database every time the page is called up(low traffic website). However, after an entire month I noticed that the number represented by this script was significantly lower than that reported by Awstats which uses actual server log files and "supposedly" filters out known searchbots. I was wondering if a DOS attack or something similiar could cause this sort of change. I was under the impression that a PHP script would execute every time a page is requested since it's a server side programming language.

Garethp Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 A PHP script does execute every time a page is requested. I suppose depending on how your script is made it might not log properly if lots of people executed it all at the exact same time. But that's unlikely Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/172570-php-execution/#findComment-909700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
