Peppermint Tea

New Debugger Pepper v0.02 by Shaun Inman

Posted 22 March 2007 in by Sam Brown - Comment

Shaun has created a new paneless Pepper to help debug your Mint installation temporarily.

A paneless Pepper used temporarily to debug your Mint installation. Be sure to uninstall or at the very least disable debugging once a problem has been diagnosed or resolved. The Debugger Pepper introduces additional database overhead which is an unnecessary waste of resources when Mint is operating normally.

Shaun recommends that you backup your database before installing or uninstalling this Pepper.

Its features include:

  • Highlights how current visits timespans are affected by a hit
  • Show approximate round-trip time to record a visit (approximation includes network transfer time)
  • Tracks raw user agent string (without UA007) to help identify potential problem browsers
  • Uses a password embedded in the query string to prevent unwanted eyes from viewing (add &info to view a formatted phpinfo())
  • Basic functionality, highlights missed hits due to images being disabled or cookies being disabled

You can download the Debugger Pepper from the Peppermill.
