Server Status Script

[Nortie]

Here is a PHP script you can use for every game to check it's online status, I build this in cause of many people are always curious if the server is online or offline.

Most likely the login and the game server itself got another port they use, so give in the right port at $port and $port2
Live test:

Hopefully you like it:

<?php 
  $serverip = "YOUR SERVER-IP HERE";
  $serverip2 = "YOUR SERVER-IP HERE";
 
  $port = "PORT OF SERVER";
  $port2 = "PORT OF SERVER";
  echo statuscheck($serverip, $port);
  echo statuscheck2($serverip2, $port2);

function statuscheck($serverip, $port) {
 $sockres = @fsockopen($serverip, $port, $errno, $errstr, 1);
 if (!$sockres) {
  return "
  
 <tr>
  <td>
   <img src=indexoff_01.gif width=175 height=45 alt=IOffline><br></td></tr>";
 } else {
  @fclose($sockres);
  return "<tr><td>
   <img src=indexon_01.gif width=175 height=45 alt=IOnline><br></td></tr>";
 }
}
function statuscheck2($serverip2, $port2) {
 $sockres = @fsockopen($serverip2, $port2, $errno, $errstr, 1);
 if (!$sockres) {
  return "
  <tr><td>
   <img src=indexoff_02.gif width=175 height=45 alt=ROffline><br></td><tr>";
 } else {
  @fclose($sockres);
  return "<tr><td>
   <img src=indexon_02.gif width=175 height=45 alt=ROnline><br></td></tr>
";
 }
}

?>

The images I used and the PHP file are attached into this post. This script is actually written for VBulletin to use with. If you want to use your own images it's possible. I just attached these if you'll need them.

if you dont get it to work, post your question here.

Nice. Can you make worldlog server.

What do you mean by a worldlog server, I can sure give it a try, if you give me more specific information about it.

Images and for those images online script

[Maitokahvi]

i think better script is.
<?
Error_reporting(0);
$fp = @fsockopen('ip here', porthere, $errno, $errstr, 2);
if($fp){ '<font color=green>Online</font>'; }
else{ echo '<font color=red>Offline</font>'; }
?>

I think you could also use text instead of images, but it's just what you want for yourself. You could use error_reporting... but use it like this than: ERROR_REPORTING(E_ALL);

using 0 won't help much tho.

and I my scripts I always keep it easy for others to use, but I guess it wont make any more clear for other users in here, thats why I used a variable to input the IP and the portnumber, I'll call it "customer service"

[Maitokahvi]

okey.

[Nortie]

Yep, if you trying to help people out, you must know you need to keep it easy for others to use, and don't have them to make many difference into your script, 1 mistake could destroy your whole script of not working anymore
