PHP Not Automatically Updating With ?reload=1
- by user32007
A friend built a ranking system on his site and I am trying to host in on mine via wordpress and godaddy. It updates for him but when I load it to my site, it works for 6 hours, but as soon as the reload is supposed to occur, it errors and I get a 500 timeout error.
His page is at: jeremynoeljohnson .com/yakezieclub
My page is currently at http://sweatingthebigstuff.com/yakezieclub but when you ?reload=1 it will give the error.
Any idea why this might be happening? Any settings that I might need to change?
Here is the top of the index.php file. I'm not sure which part of any of it is messing up. I literally uploaded the same code as him.
Here's the reload part:
$cachefile = "rankings.html";
$daycachefile = "rankings_history.xml";
$cachetime = (60 * 60) * 6; // every 6 hours, the cache refreshes
$daycachetime = (60 * 60) * 24; // every 24 hours, the history will be written to - or whenever the page is requested after 24 hours has passed
$writenewdata = false;
if (!empty($_GET['reload']))
{
if ($_GET['reload']== 1)
{
$cachetime = 1;
}
}
if (!empty($_GET['reloadhistory']))
{
if ($_GET['reloadhistory'] == 1)
{
$daycachetime = 1;
$cachetime = 1;
}
}
if (file_exists($daycachefile) && (time() - $daycachetime < filemtime($daycachefile)))
{
// Do nothing
}
else
{
$writenewdata = true;
$cachetime = 1;
}
// Serve from the cache if it is younger than $cachetime
if (file_exists($cachefile) && (time() - $cachetime < filemtime($cachefile)))
{
include($cachefile);
echo "";
exit;
}
ob_start(); // start the output buffer
?
