It doesn't log me in, but it gives me no error message either. I also found that if I repeat the process it adds yet another entry in the password file, by the same name "boing ". Is that a bug or is there something wrong with my configuration? |
Well, I tell you what is wrong: The form says explicitly (name may not contain blanks) and you did not listen
I can add a simple check if the name contains blanks, but then some people will come up with other strange characters (@#$%), and I'm not sure which of those gives problems. If you test this carefully and tell me which characters to make forbidden, I will happyly add a simple check. |

See the config manual and look for $shell |

Ok, I added an empty password check. If too many people will complain, I will make it a flag. |

That worked some time ago, but did not work currently. So I fixed that in the current SVN version. |

T. Ribbrock wrote: | I just ran into the following problem (and was able to reproduce it in the "demo" logbook on this site):
Numbered list follows:
- one

This text is indented, as the list was not closed properly.

- five
- six
And now we have double indention... |
I can't see any double indention there...
But seriously I fixed that problem and updated this elog server already. It's in SVN revison 1653. The code now correctly chooses the proper </ul> or </ol>. What will not work however are nested lists, like an ordered list inside an unordere list, but that's anyhow very uncommon. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Windows | 2.6.1-1 | Re: Problem with MOptions |
Ulrich Trüssel wrote: | After upgrading to 2.6.1-1 (actually donwgraded in case of this problem to 2.6.0) i was not longer able to selct more than one MOptions selection in my ELOGs. Only the first slected selection was acepted by ELOG. Ex:
MOptions Test = Aa, Bb, Cc, Dd, Ee, Ff, Gg
Selecting: Bb, Cc, Gg
Submitting the entry form, autoreturn to the overview of the even made entry, only Bb was taken.
Any Idea what's happen? Did I miss something changing in 2.6.1-1 or may this be a bug? Thanks for ideas?
Would loke to upgreade to 2.6.1. in case of the new forms for long MOptions, but need to selct more than one! |
That should work in 2.6.1-2 now. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Linux | | Re: email problems |
Chris Warner wrote: | Error sending Email via "xxx.xxx.xxx.xx": Syntax error, parameters in command "MAIL FROM: christopher_warner@xxx.gov SIZE=1985" unrecognized or missing
|
There are two possible reasons:
1) The email address "christopher_warner@xxx.gov" is invalid. Some SMTP server immediately complain about invalid email addresses and refuse to send any mail then. In that case just supply an existing email address or remove that test account.
2) The SMTP server does not like the "SIZE=xxx" option. This comes from a single line in elogd.c:
snprintf(str, strsize - 1, "MAIL FROM: %s SIZE=%d\r\n", from, strlen(text));
you could just go there and remove the " SIZE=%d", so that the line looks like:
snprintf(str, strsize - 1, "MAIL FROM: %s\r\n", from);
to see if that makes any difference. |

Yap. There are two menus, one for the listing page which contains only line per entry, and one for the individual entry page. You changed the one for the individual entry page, which you will see when you slick on any entry. To change the listing page manu, do a List Menu commands = ... |
