ibigpapa Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I'm looking to forward an email to a script using windows. We get success and error email's from some of our servers. We have to log what time we received them. This takes up alot of paper. I want to move it to a mysql database instead of paper. Is this possible?

Ninjakreborn Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Just instead of sending an email with the errors, log them in a database.Something like errors (tablename)id - identifies the error number so you always have itdescription - description of the error writern during programmingerrorcode- if your specific errors are based on error codes just keep track of thatIn 30 minutes you could have an admin panel to add/edit/delete, query and report on the information, without taking too much time to develop on it, or you could hire someone if you are not a programmer, to do it for you in a relatively short and cheap period of time.

ibigpapa Posted January 21, 2007 Author Share Posted January 21, 2007 I would do this, but unfortunatly they are on unix(I believe aix) operating systems and I do not have the authority or access to do this(nor the know how if it's aix). I have found some tutorials for this but all of them are for linux. Great operating system, but higher ups don't think so. So I am stuck with windows.

Ninjakreborn Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Unix is great, I love both unix, and linux. What is stopping you from it, if you don't have the know you might have to hire someone, or find a quick insert script you can modify, have it formulate that errors, and put them in a database.Whsy kind of errors?

ibigpapa Posted January 21, 2007 Author Share Posted January 21, 2007 I do not have access or the authority to get on these boxes. I can only use my email to access the logs that I monitor.

Ninjakreborn Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Then what are you asking help with. You wanted to stop getting emails of errors, and start databasing them, that is what you said.
