My OpenX tables grew too fast to handle by our small team without any DBA so we switched to AdSpeed.com, a hosted ad server. I know I could go to OpenX hosted but the support I got from AdpSeed is much better from my past experience with OpenX community.

I had the same problem with statistics not showing in OpenX interface – it seems, however, the cause of this was entirely different.

I wrote a small post on it here:

Hi, I’m not able to provide a solution, but this really seems like something you should post over at the OpenX Forums:

Hope that helps!

How to get the OpenX statistical Reports. In my project using the openx v2.6.4 version. So many times i tried in openx, Ads are displaying in my site properly. But In reports side, i got the message “There is no data to display”. I’m using the following procedure.. Please give me the correct solution.. and Please reply to me its correct or wrong.then how to use openx tell me that working procedure.

step 1: Select Add new advertiser. i am now in the Add new advertiser screen.
First, enter my advertiser’s basic information:
* Name: the advertiser’s Name must be unique. You cannot create two advertisers with the same name.
* Contact: the Contact name will be used in all emails to the advertiser.
* Email: an Email address for the advertiser is required.

step 2: Once i have created an Advertiser, from the Advertisers screen click Add new campaign. This will take to the Add new campaign screen.The next step is to define what type of campaign will apply to this advertiser.

step 3: From the Advertiser screen click on the Trackers tab. Trackers allow you to monitor conversions instigated by a visitor to my website(s) clicking on an ad. Conversions are most commonly measured as sales, leads or signups.
* Name: assign my tracker a name of my choice.
* Description: this field serves as a reminder for this particular tracker.
* Conversion Type: this dropdown menu lets you choose between Sale, Lead and Signup, according to the type of conversion i want to track for this campaign (select sale).
* Default Status: the dropdown menu offers Approved, Ignore or Pending(select Approved).

step 4: The Linked Campaigns screen displays all of the campaigns linked by my trackers:

Click next>> it goes to new campaign property. Create the new campaign.

step 5: select the new banner property. Create the Banner, choose Local banner (SQL), Destination URL, Size of banner, click the save changes.

step 6: Then select the website&zone, Create the website, Fill the Name, Website URL,category, country,Language,contact,Email, and click save changes.

step 7: Then i created zones for that banner. Fill the name, description, zone type, and size. Select the save changes. then select the linked banners. choose what to link to this zone –> link induvidual banners, Select the banner you would like to link to this zone:choose my advertiser, then select campaign, and Banner.

setp 8: select the zone invocation code, choose the type of banner invocation , i select the javascript and copy and paste that code into my web page.

step 9: Select the linked zones tab, choose the zone and click save changes.

step 10: update my web page, and select refresh my site, Ads should displayed in my site. So many times i clicked that Ads, Open that link. After 1 hour waiting then i opened statistics–> Advertises&campaigns–> comes this message “There are currently no statistics available for the period 01-12-2009 to 29-12-2009″.

Hi,

Nice, thank you for this useful and well-described post. I believe you also posted on the OpenX forum? I recently sticky’d a thread similar to this

A good thing to know too is that there is a file at openx/scripts/maintenance/tools/regenerateAdServerStatistics.php
You can use this to regenerate statistics for a given operation interval (an hour in 2.4).

Cheers,
