This thread can be used to discuss eve-marketdata.com, including any support or feature requests. I also created an in-game channel called eve-marketdata that I often monitor for anyone needing help.

eve-central vs eve-marketdata: eve-central is no longer being updated. The developer said that he no longer plays eve, and just leaves the site up because it runs itself. Also, as more people upload data to me and move away from eve-central, his data gets worse and mine gets better :)
api data: check again, I found a few bugs and have fixed them. There's also a new version of the API coming out real soon that will be way easier.

Over the last month and a half I'm sure a lot of you noticed that the site was slow, and would occasionally go down (usually only for a few minutes while it auto-rebooted). The problem was that there are so many requests coming in (about a million a day now) that apache became a problem.
Apache is designed to spawn a separate thread for each request, and each request starts a php.cgi process. So that meant that each concurrent request took up like 50 megs of memory. I'm on a VPS, so the amount of memory the server gets is configurable, but I have to pay for it. Right now I'm paying about $70/mo in hosting fees.
So, getting off Apache became a priority. I spent about 2 weeks trying to get lighttpd to work and just had continuous problems. I finally gave up and tried out nginx which configured easily and has worked great in testing. I just deployed it to production, so all of you should be reading this on the new server!
This should allow me to drop my hosting costs to about $50/mo, and also scale up to about 50x the traffic there currently is.
SO, if you find any problems, or notice weird data, or have any connection problems, please let me know ASAP in-game to Kallahar or channel eve-marketdata.
Thanks! |

Hey! Finally tracked down that login problem, thanks to Eva Evotori's help. Turns out the cookie was being set to the domain ..eve-marketdata.com when it should have been .eve-marketdata.com (one . in the front). Huge PITA to track that one down :)
So, stock station, sell my hanger, etc should all be working correctly now. I'll get on those T2 items not showing correctly tomorrow morning. Work has been super busy after the break.
