I have stripped my config file down to one command:   "Preset text = \\ssoelog\elog\templates\test2.txt"

If I type the path "\\ssoelog\elog\templates\test2.txt" into my browser I see the contents of the file, which is the word  "YES"

But when I open a "New" page in ELOG the command returns:    " \\ssoelog\elog\templates\test2.txt"

Could it have anything to do with the fact that I am using Version 2.7.5

Well, I only know that the following config file works fine for me on Linux:

[test]
Attributes = xx
Preset text = /tmp/xx

with the file /tmp/xx containing "test: ignore". When opening a new entry, then the text "test: ignore" is written in the editors text area.

I'm using Version 2.9.2

My suggestion: download the latest Windows Version and try again.

I have an attribute formatted as a date (but not labeled as date) and is sorted as second priority. The sort works fine until I enter a date older than Jan 1st 2002. When I do this it is sorted as the latest. Is this a bug or simply not designed to use dates this old?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

 Sorry, my mistake. The cutoff date is anything before September 9th 2001 does not sort.

ELOG contains Kerberos authentication at a basic level. If I'm not mistaken, the Windows Domain controller is based on Kerberos. I do not have any 2008 or 2012 domain controller, so I cannot test, but it's worth giving it a try.

i have been using elogbook V2.7.6 on my XP machine for a number of years. I ahve recently upgraded to windows 8 and the reply function on my entries has changed. I can now see the previous entrys in HTML format rather than the reply box which used to appear and also my ability to upload attachments and paste working linls is removed. Do i need to upgrade to the latest version and do i ned to back up my previous entries and how do i do this?

Thank you
