[Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Debugging for CDN auto upload please

  • W3TC 0.9.2.3

    I’m having trouble with the way that W3 Total Cahce auto-uploads files to my Rackspace CDN and I’d like to see some debugging added so I can see what it’s doing please.

    It’s been working perfectly for a long time now…

    I think my problem started when I removed some Apache modules that (I thought) were not being used. I then saw a few errors showing up in the “Upload Queue” on a few different occasions. I cleared the errors and thought everything was OK.
    Since then, my site has been uploading over 60GB per day to my CDN (my whole /uploads/ directory is around 2.5GB and has not changed at all for a long time) so I think the auto-uploader is getting very confused and uploading everything over and over again continuously.
    I’d like to see some debugging output to see how it’s determining that the files need to be re-uploaded, so I can get to the root of the problem and fix it.

    Thanks very much,
    -Dan

    Sweet, Thanks very much Frederick.

    I wonder if it will be possible to add some more debug code (that can be turned on or off) that writes to php error log when the auto-uploader decides to start uploading files.

    It could be really useful to see which files it thinks need to be uploaded and why.

    Thanks again,

    Sorry there’s no log right now. I’ll think about adding that.

    No worries Frederick, thanks for the reply.

    When I get time I’m going to add a whole bunch of logging to the code and find out exactly why it’s deciding to re-upload all the files.

    I’ll let you know what I learn.

    Thanks again,

    I have a ticket to check track the upload status a bit better. The problem remains that doing “file scans” can be very expensive and generally a bad way to go.
