Then you may safely delete the file.
This is what it meant by investigating it first when the installer told you so.
Hey man thanks for the help. I've been trying to reinstall, but I'm still running into issues:

AB-Solution 3.9.0: pixelserv-tls install

pixelserv-tls server stats not available,
trying to start pixelserv-tls again, with verbose output:


stopping pixelserv-tls
Checking pixelserv-tls (AB-Solution)... alive.
Shutting down pixelserv-tls... done.

192.168.1.3 is definitely free and not taken by anything. dhcp also only starts at 192.168.1.30. Don't know what's wrong here.

At this point it would have presented you three choices.
Option 3 is recommended.
 
I tried to go to piwik.org and got a blank html page. I did an nslookup:
Code:
nslookup piwik.org
Server:    127.0.0.1
Address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain

Thanks for all the details :), but that is what I have already done and it shows;

nslookup piwik.org
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain

Name: piwik.org
Address 1: 0.0.0.0

nslookup plugins.piwik.org
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain

nslookup: can't resolve 'plugins.piwik.org'

When I use my vpn which bypasses the router blocking I can get to both sites with no issues.
 
Unfortunately, my problems don't stop.

ab-solution keeps telling me there is an error, when I enter 22, I get this:

Shutting down pixelserv-tls... done.
Starting pixelserv-tls (AB-Solution)... done.
pixelserv-tls is not running

Any way to fix that? ab-solution doesn't seem to be able to do it all by itself.

In the SSH terminal do:
Code:
ifconfig br0:pixelserv 192.168.1.3 up
then
Code:
ping -c 2 192.168.1.3
then
Code:
/opt/etc/init.d/S80pixelserv-tls restart
then
Code:
wget --tries=6 --retry-connrefused -O /tmp/servstats.txt 192.168.1.3/servstats.txt
then
Code:
cat /tmp/servstats.txt
Which one fails?

See what's stopping to resolve it. AB always resolves to either the real IP or the pixelserv IP if on or 0.0.0.0.
Use f option 1 to see what dnsmasq has to report.

The wget doesn't display anything. There is no output at all and it doesn't terminate. It just seems stuck until i ctrl + c.

The cat goes through, but doesn't display anything. All the earlier commands worked fine.

Thanks for that, it gives me the following, with my pixelserve address being 192.168.1.2;

Aug 6 19:59:02 dnsmasq[7951]: query[A] piwik.org from 192.168.1.98
Aug 6 19:59:02 dnsmasq[7951]: cached piwik.org is 0.0.0.0

Aug 6 20:02:47 dnsmasq[7951]: query[A] plugins.piwik.org from 192.168.1.98
Aug 6 20:02:47 dnsmasq[7951]: forwarded plugins.piwik.org to 127.0.0.1
Aug 6 20:02:47 dnsmasq[7951]: query[A] plugins.piwik.org.THEMATRIX from 192.168.1.98
Aug 6 20:02:47 dnsmasq[7951]: config plugins.piwik.org.THEMATRIX is NXDOMAIN

So does this mean that they aren't being blocked by your solution?
 
Thanks for reporting this error.

I have added the clause in lines 3676-3678 in ab-solution.sh to not include the email.cfg file when stats are not sent through email.
You can re-download the file by entering 33 into the AB UI.
Then you can set your router stats.

No version change for ab-solution.sh, only the release date is changed to today, as seen in function s.

Sounds good.

Y2k bug or what? The Matrix trilogy was all the hype in that time.
 
The wget doesn't display anything. There is no output at all and it doesn't terminate. It just seems stuck until i ctrl + c.

The cat goes through, but doesn't display anything. All the earlier commands worked fine.
Then while in /home/root:
Code:
wget 192.168.1.3/servstats.txt
and then
Code:
cat 192.168.1.3/servstats.txt
 
So your domain resolves it to NXSOMAIN.
Find out why.

Ok thanks, never heard of NXSOMAIN, but will look into it further, thanks.

Strange this is why is the log showing plugins.piwik.org.THEMATRIX rather than plugins.piwik.org which was the url requested in the browser.

For some reason the domain name has been appended.

Edit: Since domain name is the invalid domain, you got a NXDOMAIN response i.e an error message indicating that domain is either not registered or invalid. Which is incorrect, as it does exist.

The NXDOMAIN is a DNS message type received by the DNS resolver (i.e. client) when a request to resolve a domain is sent to the DNS and cannot be resolved to an IP address. An NXDOMAIN error message means that the domain does not exist.

In the AB sub menu, use es and set the three Dnsmasq settings as follows:
1500
5
on
See if that helps.
 

Yeah thanks just found it on google too :) thanks for searching.

Not sure what is causing it to say its invalid as I can go to that url on my browser while using my vpn, so its either AB or DNS crypt thats doing something weird.

Will do some more reading on dns-crypt to see if its causing this.

Thanks again.
