I do have one problem for some reason we have to login twice in order to submit a new entree in
the log. I do have a guest account setup so when we click logon the logon page pops up and you
type in username and password and enter. Then main page pops up and you are still in the guest mode.
Click on logon again and enter everything again and this you get in the edit mode.
I hope you can me with this. |
Can you send me your elogd.cfg? |

Can you send me your elogd.cfg ?
Have you made sure that the entries do contain some text? The behaviour you describe usually happens if you have entries without any text. |

Well, I guess that causes it. In the summary-view there is no visible text.
I thougt when choosing the full-view the text would appear along with the other attributes.
My config-file is:

| PJ Meyer wrote: | I finally got 2.60 Beta3 running on my server (explicit statements in cfg for most of the defaults)
Now I'm seeing a veerrry slooooow response time - over 3 minutes to open a logbook vs 10 sec in 2.54
Utilization of CPU runs to 60% on elogd.
Tried slimning down elog.cfg, 'emptying' userlog file (actually renamed so Elog created a new one).
Still 2.60b3 is very slow to respond.
When I rolled back to 2.54 speed was fast again.
Any ideas?
this is on a dual processor Win2000 server with 2 gb memory.
attached is the elog.cfg if that helps.
i'm stumped
7/28 Follow-up testing and trials
When I stopped using a password file - speed was quick and responsive (on test book with no password file speed was good which got me thinking about the password file)
When I added back in the 'old' xml password file - slow response
I created new password file with only one user - slow response (took almost 3 minutes to save new account)
I've attached the password file so you can try it out if yo want....
This has me very stumped. |
I can confirm .. it's very very slow for me too:

for every image elog has to serve one can see something similar to the above ... lot of time lost in selects.. then a lot of data (serving an image I suppose), then a lot of time in select again and again ... untill everything is sent, in a couple of minutes or more 
Maybe an issue related to the dns search you introduced in order to guess the correct host name ?? .. |

This is strange to me, since I did not change anything which could slow down the server this much. The dns search your mentioned is only evaluated once on startup of elogd, so it cannot be the cause. The select() statements with Timeouts are normal. If there is no HTTP request (elogd is idling), the select should time out after one second, to be able to check a changed config file for example. If a HTTP request arrives, the select() call is immediately terminated and the request served.
There is however some problem with DNS server which I saw on midas.psi.ch. If the DNS host name resolution is slow due to a slow DNS server, this could slow down elogd considerably significantly, but only occasionally. I saw elogd hanging on midas.psi.ch like once or twice a day for ~30 seconds.
I order to address this problem, I imlemented a global flag "resolve host names = 0|1". The default is "0", which means that elogd does not contact the DNS server, and rather save the raw IP address in log files etc.
Can you check the CVS version and see if it makes any difference? |

No, ok it appears to be a very strange problem related to my JS calendar filter ... I'll change it's state to beta in contributions, but the very strange thing is that it works fine when no stunnel is used ... |

Our elog is going to be taking some large attachments. I've disabled the attachments from going out in the email, but I'd like email recipients to know that the post has attachments associated with it. Is there a mechanism to do this already, or would it be an enhancement? I'm looking for something like:
Email Notify Attachments = 0 | 1 | 2
Where 0 = no notification,
1 = number only,
2 = list
... independent of whether attachments are included with the email itself.
Thanks,
Chris. |
I added Email Format = 64 for only attachment names. So you could set Email Format = 111 to get everything except the full attachments. |
