New entries since: Tue Oct 22 10:56:27 2013

 

this occurs with different browsers and PC's

For other users it works as described in this forum post ...

"When you are active browsing entries, your activity is recorded (only the time) in the password file. Now when you are inactive for more than one hour, you are considered "logged out", and your last activity is taken as a filter for new entries. That means you see new entries since your last activity in the logbook. " https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1612

Mark.

Sure it will be stuck on a date/time, until you show "inactivity". So wait for >1h, and then check again. You will see the time updated.

When compiling elog on OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), I get the error below.

Elog will compile without error if I add -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 to CFLAGS in Makefile, but I'm not sure whether this is a good idea.

All over sudden gcc comes with its own version of "strlcpy", which I had defined "manually" since many years inside ELOG. Using -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=0 will not harm, so you can use it. The "real" solution is to take our ELOG's strlcpy/strlcat, which I did on the current SVN version.

Best regards,

 Hi there :)

I'm having a problem with the e-mail notification on my installation of elog. I'm testing the attachment upload with images, and it seems to work seamlessly. However upon posting, the e-mail notification sends a null attachment, instead of the image I would expect.

Is there an error log I can check for this? I started the elog process without the daemon option, but I can't see any error coming up.

Cheers,
 

This problem has been fixed in the current version. Please get it from bitbucket.org.

Ok, I tried updating my SVN working copy, but I didn't get any updates past elog rev. 2494, mxml rev. 74.  I undid my changes to Makefile, tried to compile, but got the same errors.  

I then pulled down elog and mxml with git, and these are working for me with no errors.  Thanks!

SVN is obsolete and will NOT be maintained any more, since we completely switched to GIT. Actually I will disable the service soon.

One of my users reported that he received this error when attempted to submit an editing entry. Basically he is only one to edit this entry. When go ahead to press the button, the entry is updated successfully. What cause and how to prevent this error not to populate? Thanks

Please read the documentation in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html und the option "Use Lock". If you don't need locking, just turn it off.

My elog is named "Whatever Elog" so the URL generated is /Whatever+Elog . This works fine but when in the interface certain buttons generate this URL : /Whatever%20Elog  ...this URL fails.  It seems that elog does not recognize these ( + and %20 ) as the same which I believe they should be as part of HTTP request.

Can you be a bit more specific which buttons you mean? The demo logbook https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/ has also a space and I cannot see any problem there.

That's strange. I just tried myself (by accident I have the same versions of Chrome and OSX) and it just worked fine. The fckedit code has not change a long time, so I guess it's not related to the exact version of 
elogd. Anyhow I want to switch to ckedit when I get some time, which maybe fixes the problem. What happens if you try to write in this forum, do you have the same problem? Sometime the fcdedit code take 
quite long time to load when accessed remotely. If your browser gives up, you might hat to click on "reload". In chrome there is also the "Developer tools" window, which shows you all HTTP requests and 
responses on the network. Otherwise I run out of ideas what could be different for you compared to me.

Cheers,
Stefan

Just put (char *) in front of all malloc(). I will include the fix in the next official version.
