- Download the diagnostic module
- Go to the Miva Downloads page.
- Download and extract the "Miva Merchant Empresa" for your OS.
- Inside the extracted folder, look for the
diagtool.mvc. It's likely in a folder like:mivavm-v5.36/tools/diagtool.mvc
- Upload the
diagtool.mvcfile to the web-root directory (Typically that would be at:/httpdocs/diagtool.mvc). - Update the
/cgi-bin/mivavm.conffile with the following logging settings (View this miva.com/forum post for other log-level options).
logfile=diagtool.log
loglevel=144
logcookie=diagtool
- Visit
https://www.yourdomain.com/diagtool.mvc. - Click Log Cookie Status link on sidebar menu, then click Set Log Cookie option.
- Visit the page(s) that you want to test.
- Download the log file at
/private/mivadata/diagtool.log. Note that the log file will be appended to for each page tested. It is generally recommended to download the log file locally, and then delete it from the server after each page visit to separate the page results. - Run the
mvprofcommand in your terminal. View the syntax and options on this miva.com/forum post. Note that this command may change depending on installation of the mvprof tool, however, it is recommended to add the path for the tool to the global path for your OS. Once the global path is set, you should be able to run the following terminal command:
$ mvprof -output <path/for/outputfile> <path/for/inputfile>
Example (Mac or Unix):
$ cd ~/path/to/diagtool.log
$ mvprof -output diagtool_results.txt diagtool.log
- After diagnostics have been completed, the tool should be removed from the server. To do so, visit the
https://www.yourdomain.com/diagtool.mvc, and click the REMOVE TOOL FROM SERVER option. - Clean up the
/cgi-bin/mivavm.confby removing or commenting out the log settings that were added earlier (logfile,loglevel, &logcookie).
