Sorry, I didn't have time to look in to it that day.
However, I think I just fixed it. My test worked, at least. Please let me know if you get the email on next turn change.
Don't you hate how some scripts work completely differently on different servers?

I think this may not have worked. As you posted this at 11am EST. One of my games had it's turn roll over at 3pm EST. And I have myself set up on the turn notifications for that game.

Confirmed, I am not getting emails either.
I am however getting emails about diplo messages.

I don't think there are any misunderstandings. It's just that if a game host exposes his computer to security risks by setting up a web server, it is his problem. Sure, people should help and give advice concerning this, but it really is not a valid reason to leave it unimplemented.
As I told before, I made a simple PHP application that can handle the CivStats uploads. It has no interface as it is only meant to help a Civstats IRC bot, but it would be very easy to modify it to print a web page with basic PHP skills. If someone is interested, just tell. No warranties, and I expect you to know how to handle a web server
Of course, if the author is planning to create a real feature to support this, it would be better.
Hey - I just started using civstats for my own pitboss, but noticed a problem. Even though I set up my preferences to receive e-mail notifications, I never got any when a new turn began. Stranger still, the other person that's also a player in the same game says he has been getting notifications ?! Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Another piece of useful information for debugging this problem - notifications about diplomatic messages seem to be getting through just fine to me...

I put in a support request with my new host about the mail thing. I am getting some weird error that I think is there problem.

Well, the AI names should be there. We have nine human players and
nine AI players. But we do not renumber the civilizations or whatever
and we have never converted an AI to a human or the other way round.
The human leader names are changes sometimes, though, but could
that really confuse the CivStats server or the uploader?
What is happening? Is actually the CivStats server logging in as the
AIs, after converting them to human? Or should I suspect that
someone else is doing this?

I got this sometime during this sequence of rebooting the Pitboss
server machine:
1/ Saving from Pitboss to a file
2/ Exiting Pitboss
3/ Rebooting machine
4/ Starting Uploader
5/ Starting Pitboss, loading from the save file
Several AIs and human leaders were "eliminated" in the log,
but all are still alive and kicking in the game. None of the
"logins" and "logouts" happened for real, as far as I know.
Game is Rasbora, number 350 on the CivStats web server.

Another problem ... any changes to preferences in a game that just started (iliad) results in database error when you try to save.
Look on the civstats website - it's part of the game's URL...

I cannot connect to civstats, what is the problem?

OverLoad has announced that he is moving his household. He predicted civstats may be down for as much as a month as the DSL service typically takes a couple of weeks for hookup.
Is this a new announcement? Because my pitboss game on civstats seems to be operating just fine.

same problem here. I dont get emails when a turn is finished too. Is there a solution????

The only solution I can see at the moment is using PBNotify in conjunction with CivStats, but I just don't want to have two separate programs running. And also - PBNotify only notifies you after a new year begins, not on player by player basis.

I noticed that the event log on CivStats shows the last 100 events. Is there any way to get the RSS feed of the event log to return more than the last 30 events?

After several attempts I managed to get a new game setup (496 game id) but it was painful because the uploader was not connecting.
Something is not right with this database and how it is getting updated is my guess. Noticed too that something is constantly downloading on the ie status bar: civiv_logo_med.png

Is there anything in particular that you did to get it to work? I recently fixed a bug where games that had a single quote in the title were not uploading properly. It's possible that other bugs like that exist that I haven't caught.
That's because you're using IE and I had to implement horrible javascript hacks just to make IE display transparent PNGs properly most of the time. IE is a horrible nightmare for web developers! It doesn't always do that; just some of the time.
