  • Mail highlights report generation
    1. When checked for a time period whose report is not generated it
      gives a 403 page not found error instead of report cannot be
      generated message.
  • Site and ad blocking
    1. When site url is entered and we click on add and activate a
      cron runs every 10 minutes which executes
      /opt/merce/bin/maint/proxyblock_activate
    2. This program is supposed to add blocked url to
      /etc/apache2/proxyblock.conf which does not happen
    3. Changes that I made
    4. vi /etc/merce/Netconfig.sh
    5. Existing Proxyblockqfile="$Netdatadir/proxyblock.conf"
    6. Changed to Proxyblockqfile="$Nettmpdir/proxyblock.conf"
    7. vi /opt/merce/bin/maint/proxyblock_activate
    8. Existing PROXYBLOCK_ACTIVATEFLAG=$Netdatadir/$ME
    9. Changed to PROXYBLOCK_ACTIVATEFLAG=$Nettmpdir/$ME
    10. Before checking existence of PROXYBLOCK_ACTIVATEFLAG I
      touched the file
    11. Which is the correct way to ensure that proxyblocking
      works?
    12. Similar method followed for ad blocking
