stunnel is kind of a deprecated feature. Better use the SSL proxy of Apache,
as written in the elog admin guide. If someone else figures out how to use the
more revent stunnel, I'm willing to update the documentation.

okay. that's good to know. i'll try using the apache method instead. but, there is
something wrong with the "secure" link to an example on the elog administrator's
guide.

Several strings in ELOG are limited to 256 chars. It is likely the limit for URLs, too.
The magic number "256" appears 285 times in the elogd.c file.
It is probaly easier if you compress long URLs with goo.gl
Cheers, Andreas

What is the string length limit in url tag and how to increase it?

For example,

[url=http://example.com?<text_string>]click here[/url]

When I provide very long <text_string>, it was truncated and showed partial link only.

The transcript below looks all ok to me, so it's most likely that the email went to your Spam folder.

I checked for a spam filter and found none. I have also tried this on three different computers (with different email accounts) and still no luck.

Please use a valid email address for sender. All free email provider don't accept an invalid address, because of security against Spam problem.

Use Email From = xx@xxx.xx

 Hi there,

I have a connection problem with an actual elog installation. Many Browsers like as Chrome, Firefox and IE don't  connect to the elog server with ssl = 1 in elogd.cfg. 

I tested with Firefox 3.6 and IE 7 installations and there are no problems.

I guess it's a bug. Does someone have a suggestion to solve that problem?

Thx. Olaf

 

Hi!

This just started happening here also.  Some users can't get on to a SSL=1 config'd elog using either IE or firefox 10 (win7 or linux) or chrome.  SAFARI works.  Occurs in 2.8.0 and a newly built (even after

ssl yum updates) 2.9.0 version on SL5.5 system.  Seems to accept self signed cert then nothing.. (connection reset message).   Tried an stunnel from one port to port running elog

with SSL=0.  Same behavior.  Doesn't work on some browsers.  Any clues?

Thanks,

-John
