[EP-tech] IRStats 2-0.0.5 - Stats::Handler: requested processor 'countries' does not exist.


Hi All,

 

I will keep this request short… but I have provided more details for those who want to read the epic tale below….

 

I have just finished pushing IRStats 2-0.0.5 into a dev eprints system (running 3.3.10),

Everything seems to be working except the world map, ‘origin of download’ component. Found on the vanilla  /cgi/stats/report/requests page.

I also added the GeoChart code into the eprint report as well…

 

The database has irstats2_countries table and it’s got appropriate data in it, but error logs show “Stats::Handler: requested processor 'countries' does not exist.”

 

Seb, Any ideas where to start looking?

 

Cheers

Matt.

 

 

More details…  

 

The vanilla settings for eprint in z_irstats2.pl generates the report (<FQDN>/cgi/stats/report/eprint/) and displays everything as expected…

eprint => {

      items => [ { plugin => 'ReportHeader' },

                 { plugin => 'Google::Graph', datatype => 'downloads', options => { date_resolution => 'month', graph_type => 'column', },  },

                 { plugin => 'KeyFigures', options => { metrics => [ 'downloads.spark', 'hits.spark' ], } },

               ]

    },

 

 

I added the GeoChart line into the items block, to display origin of downloads,

 

                 { plugin => 'Google::GeoChart', datatype => 'countries', options => { title_phrase => 'download_countries', }, },

 

and it displays the relevant block on the screen, but it contains a message ‘this.each is not a function’

The apache error log also displays… “Stats::Handler: requested processor 'countries' does not exist.”

 

After digging around, I found that I was missing Geo::IP, which is documented in the file /opt/eprints3/lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Stats/Processor/Access/Country.pm

# Processor::Access::Country

#

# Processes the Country codes from Access records. Provides the 'eprint_countries' datatype

# Note that this requires Geo::IP to work.

#

Even though it is testing for EPrints::Utils::require_if_exists( "Geo::IP::PurePerl" )

 

I installed perl-Geo-IP, and then also installed perl-Geo-IP-PurePerl too, when perl-Geo-IP didn’t get things working…

 

This dev install of ePrints doesn’t/didn’t have the geoip.dat file that was required either, so that’s been put in place (/opt/eprints3/lib/geoip/GeoIP.dat).

 

The process_stats was re-run to rebuild all the tables… and we now have an ‘irstats2_countries’ table (which wasn’t there before), and it’s been populated with data that looks appropriate…

 

I am guessing that having the table populated, would indicate that the ‘countries’ processor is in place and operational, which makes the apache error log rather confusing..
