Xortify doesnt work

Hello guys, I'm running xoops 2.5.6 and I have downloaded Xortify.
I have installed the module, following instructions but I have two problems:

1- I dont see the GUI, it is all in a white simple page

2- xortify doesn't work. When I go in "sign-up" I see:

Quote:
Error Occured Communicating with cloud
The current URI is unaccessable on the selected protocol. This could mean you are either missing a required PHP Extension or have a firewall blocking port 80 to the Xortify Cloud.

You can try changing the protocol selected in preferences to see if this may elivate the communication fawl of your hosting services.

URL/URI Being Contacted Protocol Being Used rest_json


What means?
Firewall is ok, what exactly means "rest_json" and what I have to do?

Thanks Luca

Its buggy. When this last "release" came down, Mamba found lots of issues. XOOPS does not support Xortify, it is an independent project of one developer named Wishcraft who posts his projects on the site. It is not surprising you are encountering the issue and I would not waste my time with it.

Did you try using the stop forum spam configuration in Protector module references to automatically blacklist spam users, and other hack prevention measures in protector? That works good.

Yes thanks
I'm using Protector also, but eat a lot of CPU usage, so I wanted try other way. Another question, if you can answer :)

Where are saved protector's logs? Ok, I see all logs on protector page, but there is in some place a file *.log?

Many thanks

SPAM will waste processor power regardless of whether you expend those resources fighting and preventing it, or you allow the spam bots to consume the bandwidth by taxing your systems registration and posting processes.

The protector log is kept in the MySQL database table by the same name. Bad IP and Group IP settings are kept in files in the config directory under the Protector module installed in your xoops_lib protected area (you can manually set these in protect center, or they are set automatically by Protector if you set the Stop Forum Spam setting to Block IPs of users found to be coming from SPAM IP's).

Thx, very helpfull!

Last question, I promise

I was looking protector and I have seen this:

2/9/2013 9:06:05     Ospiti     x.x.x.x Safari/537.36Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/29.0.1547.62 Safari/537.36     SQL Injection     SELECT lid FROM oca_weblinks_link WHERE (url = 'http://www.tweaktown.com/gaming/5719/Tom-Clancy's-Splinter-Cell:-Blacklist-Wii-U-Review/index.html') ORDER BY lid ASC


I have censored IP, since is our ip and not an attacker, I'm 101% sure
BTW, why for protector could be a problem that link? Because there is the word "blacklist" in the url? I hope no..but..

Thx

Protector registers "suspicious" activities, so it's not always correct. It's up to you then to check it out and see if you need to take any actions on that (like banning the IP of the visitor)

No, "bad IP" is a bad IP, and it's blocked.

To avoid banning, enter your IP in the Protector preferences as a "reliable IP"
