My logbook kept crashing whenever I tried to reply to an existing entry. I found that the percent sign "%", when used in the subject line, will crash the elogd service when you try to reply to the entry. This appears to only happen with windows installations. I tested this on your Linux logbook and it didn't crash.

Here is the message taken from the Windows event viewer after the crash:
An unhandled win32 exception occurred in elogd.exe [5224].

Thank you for Elog, you have done a good job with it.  It is a great logbook.

Mike

I could not reproduce your problem. I tried the very simple config file:

[Demo]
Attributes = Author, Subject

and the problem did not occur (see attachment). Can you try the most recent version (elog280-4.exe) with this simple configuration. Maybe you have a more complicated configuration which causes the problem. In that case please send it to me, so that I can reproduce the problem.

 Thank you Stefan for your help on this. I am using version 2.8.0 built Aug 2, 2010 rev 2312. I tried your configuration file and the problem did not occur. Using my config file the elogd crashes using the % sign in the subject when replying to the entry. So the problem is something in my config file. After checking through my config file and remming out individual lines and testing, I found that the following statement is causing the problem:

Preset on reply subject = Re: $Subject

I was using this to put the "Re:" on the replies.

The only problem now is I don't get the "Re:" in the subject on replies. Am I doing something wrong to cause this? My config file is attached.

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for your detailed report. Actually the problem only happens if you have Re: $Subject and a '%' in the subject line. So you were the first one encountering this situation. I fixed it in release elog280-5 which you can download now.

Please Notice that I've put quotes around : -u "username password" ( the documentation shows that this is not necessary) .  But now it failes to see a required attribute.  

Have you tried without the quotes? They may not be allowed!

Just for the record: It's actually forbidden. If you do -u "username password" then elog considers "username password" as the full user name, and the password is missing, so it takes the next argument as a password. In one of our trials it then used -a "Category=info" as the password, so the category was then missing.

Hi I have a logbook where I want to override the default Date attribute. I would like to set it by default to the entry date but enable the user to modify to a different date if desired. This is for entries that pertain to an activity performed on a date different to the entry date. To acheive this I have created an attribute called "Subject Date" and used preset = $date. In general this works but I would be happy to take any other suggestions on how to acheive it? Also, how do I remove the fixed "Date" attribute from the logbook summary page? I have tried: List = ID, Subject Date, Type, Subject in the config file but this doesn't appear to work? Thanks in advance! Adam

The option to change what is displayed is called List display = ... and not List = ... Then it works.

Is it possible to automatically go back to the list view in summary mode after submitting a new message instead of displaying the new message?

I know it's possible to display a page from a file after submitting a new message  by using "Submit Page = <file>". 
It would be nice to be able to use a command like "Submit Page = <command>" where I could insert "?cmd=Back" as in the "Start page" command.

Thanks,

Mike

I just implemented a new flag "List after submit = 1" which does exactly this. It brings you to the summary page after the submission of a new entry. I needed the function myself. The change is SVN revision 2327 and will be contained in the next release. 

 Sorry so long getting back to you, Stefan. Just wanted to say "thank you". This new function works great!

If you install elog with the installer from the distribution, it installs elog as a windows service, which is started automatically when windows starts. 

  66972   Mon Dec 13 20:59:07 2010 Question Diego Obradors Camposdiego.obradors.campos@cern.chQuestionWindows2.8elog as a service in windows not detect Imagemagick

I have installed elog 2.8 in a windows pc with the installer from the distribution, it installs elog as a windows service, which is started automatically when windows starts.

It is done as:

"C:\Archivos de programa\ELOG\elogd.exe" -D -c "C:\Archivos de programa\ELOG\elogd.cfg"

Moreover Imagemagick and GhostScript are in the path:

Version: ImageMagick 6.6.4-6 2010-09-21 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2010 ImageMagick Studio LLC
Features: OpenMP 

However the indexing loogbooks are only working  fine when elog is started interactively.  Is there any posiblity to start elog as a service and use thumbnails for quick preview?

Thank you in advance!
