It seems that, since Fri 2005-06-03, 12:50 almost, the shell exec feature is not invoked anymore.
the -x flag is present in the command line and the elog.cfg Parameters are present both for edit and for insert..
I'm not disabling shell exec by the checkbox

the dummy-level log in syslog does not show *anything* about shell exec.


oh my @#[#@ .. sorry stefan, my bad ... for some reason the make_thumbs script was not +x ..

Is it possible to check the executability of the script in elog and eventually tell about this in syslog ? Tongue

how ca i set the date for the "show only new entries" button? maybe i missed somethin on the elog.cfg description?
thank's for hint! Smile


That button works as follows: When you are active browsing entries, your activity is recorded (only the time) in the password file. Now when you are inactive for more than one hour, you are considered "logged out", and your last activity is taken as a filter for new entries. That means you see new entries since your last activity in the logbook. If you want to see the last day/week/month etc. you can define a quick filter on the date instead.

Sorry, I haven't fully documented it yet, will do on Monday next week. For 
now, see the configuration file for this forum which is attached.

that's ok. i just wanted to make sure that i hadn't missed something. i'm eventually switching over my entire dial up bbs, to my web page, with elog being the message system. self-registration was the last piece of the puzzle for me :)

You are the first one allowing guests to enter new entries, so this probes a code path which was never used before. I fixed the crash in SVN revision 2416, but it might be that there are more issues with that. Just keep reporting.

This problem has been fixed recently. The new code is

   /* special case: "Change %s" */
   if (strstr(orig, "Change ") && strcmp(orig, "Change %s") != 0) {
      sprintf(result, loc("Change %s"), orig + 7);
      return result;
   }

Alternatively you can get the updated version from CVS.
