Hi Saraswati,

Below is an explanation of how tracking works. This is covered in the Production training course if you have access to it. Are you attempting to use the web tracking feature of Adobe Campaign? If so there might be an issue with the configuration of web tracking tags. I recommend that you contact support for further help with this issue.

Step 1

  1. Marketing user of Neolane wants to send an email
  2. Creates a campaign/delivery and analyze the email
  3. During analysis, URLs are published to the disk of the frontal/tracking servers (Step 1 in diagram)
  4. Marketing user sends the email

Step 2

  1. Recipient receives the email and clicks on the email
  2. Recipient is directed to the Apache/IIS server hosting the tracking
  3. NLSrvMod.dll/.so Library reads the URLs which have been published to the frontal server disk for this delivery
  4. Finds where it should redirect to and then redirects the rcp
  5. Writes tracking logs to the shared memory of the frontal server
  6. READS=quick; WRITES are slow

Step 3

    Trackinglogd collects all data in the shared memory segment and writes it to the disk of frontal server

Step 4

    AppServer runs a workflow every hour (tracking) and commit them to the marketing database.

Thanks for the Reply.

Is there any configuration we can do so that tracking logs will be generated soon after sending deliveries.

Before few days the tracking logs were not getting updated at all and it was taking long time say 24 hrs like that after sending the deliveries.

Now they are generating for every one hour.But still not able to understand why they were not generatng before.

The tracking events are only generated once an hour. If you were verifying the tracking logs immediately after sending the deliveries, that would explain why there were no entries generated yet. Have you reviewed the tracking logs since? Do you now see entries?
