Mozilla Metrics Server Collection
 
== Project Description ==
This project basically proposes to recieve the data being collected by the Metrics extension and store it within a database.
In the future, possibly use the data and display it in some form.

== Project Details ==
the type of data being sent. The extension will then wait for a new config file to reset the extension. The reset basically
clears the old data and resets the config file. This process will continue in a loop.
 
'''PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS FOR VERSION 0.1'''
This project will require me to do the following:
 
-Download and patch metrics extension
-Compile the metrics extension with Minefield
-Save recieved data to a file
 
'''SAMPLE DATA'''
[http://matrix.senecac.on.ca/~sljung/metrics/metrics.txt Server CGI Script]
 
'''Project COMPLICATIONS & SOLUTIONS'''
3. Another problem, similar to problem 2, was that my while loop to read stdin was not recieving all the data properly.
With the help of "ctyler" I was able to recieve the data in-tact.
 
 
== Project News ==
-Sunday, October 21st 2007-
The server script and extension are finally working together fine. A config file is being sent back and the data is being recieved.
