System Integrity Scripts
Last Updated: 20 Sep 2017
This chapter describes the system integrity scripts available within Squiz Matrix. These scripts are designed to monitor the quality of your system and ensure it is functioning correctly.
system_integrity_check_indexes.php
The system_integrity_check_indexes.php script checks the Squiz Matrix database for any missing indexes. If missing indexes are found, this script will print an SQL query to run. Please note, however, the script will not automatically run returned SQL queries as any found issues may require a manual fix.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameter:
- The system root directory.
Example
$ php system_integrity_check_indexes.php [system_root]
------------------------------------

system_integrity_check_links.php
The system_integrity_check_links.php script checks that all hyperlinks to another asset (referenced as ./?a=xx) inside a WYSIWYG Editor (for example, a Standard Page) link to an existing asset. It highlights any asset that does not exist. You can then go to the content of the relevant asset within Squiz Matrix and fix the broken link.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameter:
- The system root directory.
Example
$ php system_integrity_check_links.php [system_root]
WARNING: You are running this integrity checker on the whole system.

system_integrity_clean_cache_dir.php
The system_integrity_clean_cache_dir.php script deletes any expired cache files in the cache directory of Squiz Matrix.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameter:
- The system root directory.
system_integrity_clean_old_files.php
The system_integrity_clean_old_files.php script checks for, and optionally deletes, files in the data directory that do not belong to an asset any more (orphaned files).
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameters:
- The system root directory.
- --delete-orphans (optional).
system_integrity_content_links.php
The system_integrity_content_links.php script verifies and updates asset NOTICE links for images or files in Bodycopy contents. This script locks each asset as it updates it, and also makes changes to the Squiz Matrix file system. It displays a Failed message for any asset that fails.
This script is for troubleshooting purposes and should only be run if you are experiencing problems with your system.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameters:
- The system root directory.
Example
$ php system_integrity_content_links.php [system_root]
WARNING: You are running this integrity checker on the whole system.
This is fine but:
it may take a long time; and
it will acquire locks on many of your assets (meaning you wont be able to edit
content for a while)
Container #22 [ OK ]
Container #26 [ OK ]
system_integrity_deleted_user_perms.php
The system_integrity_deleted_user_perms.php script deletes permissions that exist for deleted or non-existent users. For example, if an LDAP user is removed from the LDAP server, it does not notify Squiz Matrix, and hence the permissions for that user are not updated.
This script is for troubleshooting purposes and should only be run if you are experiencing problems with your system.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameter:
- The system root directory.
Example
$ php system_integrity_deleted_user_perms.php [system_root]
WARNING: You are running this integrity checker on the whole system.

system_integrity_fix_char_encoding.php
The system_integrity_fix_char_encoding.php script performs a charset conversion on content within the system. This script uses PHP's iconv conversion module to perform the charset conversion for content stored in within Squiz Matrix.
Any content that cannot be converted will be logged by this script. Manual review of this content is recommended. Please also note that the quality of the conversion is reliant on the original content. If your content contains improper or non-standard encoded characters, then it is likely that this content will not be converted and will be logged for review.
Content that will be converted by this script includes all attributes and metadata values for an asset. This script will also regenerate the metadata, design and bodycopy content files of affected assets, following the charset conversion.
You should backup your system before using this script.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameters:
- The system root directory.
- The previous charset of the system.
- The new charset of the system.
- The asset ID of the root node to process.
- --report (optional): displays a report outlining any issues before performing the charset conversion.
If your original charset is ISO-8859-1, we recommend using Windows-1252 as the previous charset argument when running this script. Windows-1252 is a super set of ISO-8859-1 and will allow this script to fix Windows-1252 encoded characters copied across from Microsoft Word.
Example
$ php system_integrity_fix_char_encoding.php --system=[system_root] --old=UTF-8 --new=iso-8859-11 --rootnode=100 --report
Number of assets to look into : 148
Number of db records with invalid char(s): 1

Getting the list of assetids that needs content regeneration ... done.
Number of db records that need replacing: 0
Total time taken to run the script: 0.27 second(s)
Please check ./data/private/logs/system_integrity_fix_char_encoding.php.log file for errors
system_integrity_fix_duplicate_rollback_entries.php
The system_integrity_fix_duplicate_rollback_entries.php script is used to report and fix any overlapping (and thus duplicate) entries in the rollback table, determined by an entry's eff_to date value.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameters:
- -s <system_root>: the root directory of your system.
- --show-records: specifies to show any overlapping rollback table entries found (optional).
- --fix-table=<table_name>: fixes the overlapping rollback entries in the specified table. Use all to fix overlapping entries in all tables (optional).
Example
$ php scripts/system_integrity_fix_duplicate_rollback_entries.php -s <SYSTEM_ROOT> --show-records --fix-table=all
IMPORTANT: You have selected the option to fix the duplicate rollback entries from the Rollback table "sq_rb_ast_attr_val"
This will remove all duplicate entries in the table(s) except the one with oldest "eff_from" date in the duplicate entries set.
Backing up db is recommended before running this script.

system_integrity_fix_sort_orders.php
The system_integrity_fix_sort_orders.php script is used to verify and correct the asset sort order in the database.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameters:
- The system root directory.
- The ID of the asset from which to start the repair.
An incorrect sort order can cause Asset Map errors, especially in paginated lists. This script is quite intensive and can potentially run for an extended period. It is recommended that these factors be considered before running this script on a Live system.
system_integrity_foreign_keys.php
The system_integrity_foreign_keys.php script reports on the integrity of foreign keys within a Squiz Matrix database. This script defines relations between certain key fields (for instance, the asset ID field in the sq_ast table) and fields in other tables. If it finds a field in any table with the same name as one defined as related, it will report any values in that table that do not exist in the key table.
This script does not attempt to fix the integrity of the database, rather it reports on potentially invalid foreign keys, as well as the number of invalid rows. This information could then be used by the user to write an SQL query to remove the invalid rows if desired.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameter:
- The system root directory.
Example
$ php system_integrity_foreign_keys.php [system_root]
> checking table sq_ast...
sq_ast.assetid 0 found
sq_ast.created_userid 0 found
sq_ast.updated_userid 0 found

system_integrity_form_submissions.php
The system_integrity_form_submissions.php script ensures that form submissions only appear under their associated form assets.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameter:
- The system root directory.
Example
$ php system_integrity_form_submissions.php [system_root]
The following invalid Form Submissions will be deleted if you run this script with delete option:
Processing the form submission 1...
Processing the form submission 2...

system_integrity_incomplete_attachments.php
The system_integrity_incomplete_attachments.php script will check for and/or delete any temporary incomplete attachments that were not autmatically removed from the Squiz Matrix file system. There are two modes to this script: check and fix, determined by the --check and --fix parameters. Running this script in check mode will display affected form asset IDs, whilst running this script in fix mode will remove the associated incomplete attachments. The list of incomplete attachments found and/or deleted is also displayed at the end of this script.
This script is located in the /scripts directory of your Squiz Matrix system and takes the following parameters:
- The system root directory.
- Either --check or --fix.
