Hi everyone, I just wrote a script that reads yahoo directories, and writes to a temp txt file the portion of direcetories it's currently working with. Then copies that temp file to a completed log file, and grabs the next subcatagory to work with. It continues till no more urls are given to fetch.
Sometimes the output for the log file is correct and sometimes it's partial. I'm wondering if someone else runs the script at the same time it might chop up the log file. Do I need mysql to make the output constant, and available for all users. Or does the server lock the log and temp file automatically while it's executing.
