Yes Here is a copy of the elog.cfg.


I tried with your config file and it worked fine. So can you tell me:

  • At what URL do you access your logbook? Do you just type http://localhost:8080 or anything else
  • Do you use any proxy or stunnel?
  • What is the URL in your browser showing on the first and second login?

You might want to consider to put a
URL = http://<your host>:8080/
into your config file.


Thanks
Your questions that you ask me help me out.
What I was doing was typing in the URL was http://pdls:8080 and it took me the pass down log. When I went to login into Elog took me back to the log but the URL read http://pdls.pwfl.com:8080 so when I log in the second time I was to be the edit mode. So I guess I should have typing in the URL http://pdls.pwfl.com:8080.

Thanks again for your help

This is the BASE64 encoding of the subject. It was discussed here and I implemented it according to RFC2047.


Well not quite. According to the RFC the encoded word must not be longer than 75 characters! Indeed
shorter subjects are displayed by pine, but not longer ones as they do not follow RFC2047.
Below is the quote from the RFC.

All subjects I receive look fine in Outlook and Thunderbird, but not under Pine, which apparently does not implement the RFC correctly.


Actually pine implements it correctly but not elogd Smile

The relevant text from the RFC
   An 'encoded-word' may not be more than 75 characters long, including
   'charset', 'encoding', 'encoded-text', and delimiters.  If it is
   desirable to encode more text than will fit in an 'encoded-word' of
   75 characters, multiple 'encoded-word's (separated by CRLF SPACE) may
   be used.

You are right Big grin, thanks for this information, I overlooked it.

Now I split a long subject into separate chunks of encoded words, and my pine is happy. Update in CVS.

Can I have an RSS feed to a protected log book? Does it also require authentication, or does it bypass it? If it bypasses it, how do I disable RSS?

Thanks,

I have SMTP server that requires authentication

Whenever a new user 'self registers' to E-log, I get an automated email saying so. Hence, the SMTP setting are correct and working.

However, for any entry made to log, no email notification is generated. error '5.5.4 Invalid Address'

suppress notification checkbox is 'unchecked'

Kindly help.

Hi,

long lines in an entry are not printed correctly (the lines are cut off), if the text is encoded as plain text. This works correctly, if the text is encoded as ELCode. I tried this with Firefox and Internet Explorer. Does anybody know a solution for this?

Thanks,
Bertram

Hello Stefan,

Tested the 2.6.0-beta4, and it sort of works. config parameter:
Email attributes = Tittel,Status

gives the mail:

Logbook             : work
Tittel              : Test
Status              : Åpen

Logbook URL         : http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/work/904

---

Is there a way to remove Logbook field (and perhaps Logbook URL if I want?)

Best regards
Michael
