As always - fantastic!

Thanks

Hi,  any help will be appreciated on this.  I have not still figured this out.

Thanks.

Hi Illam,

You can find it in src/elogd.h, #define TEXT_SIZE  250000, the original value 250000, you can change it to a larger one like #define TEXT_SIZE    1000000. Then recompile it again, just need typing "make". Elog Version is 3.1.3 in my site. HTH.

Cheers,

Hi Xuan,

Sorry for the delayed response.  I just got back from my travel.  I tried your solution, but in my system I don't see elogd.h in the src folder.  Here is what I see and also I don't see any "make" binary in the folders.  I'm running the Windows version.

Thanks.

My apologies for posting this question. I have found the solution.

We had two log books each with the same variable called "Ticket" but different values. When an entry from one was Moved to the other the counter was confused. I had to manually change the value of "Ticket" to match the convention of the log book that the entry was now in.

Thanks

All I can offer is send me your config file for the problematic logbook, and 
I will try to reproduce the error.

hello stefan 
 
sorry for the delay, was out of the office today. i had tested the same config 
and logbook under a "pseudo" win nt installation (suse linux 8.2 with vmware 
4.01 (virtaual pc simualtion) and a nativ win nt 4.0 sp6a: there is no 
problem! as well as this configuration works under linux as daemon. 
 
the problem only ocures on win 2003 server. I d'dn't test it under xp, 2000, 
2002 beause i don't have any of this systems. but it looks that no one else 
has this problem. would be helpfull to know if there anybody out in 
cyberspase using elog 2.5.1 with win 2000 or 2002 or even better with win 
2003 server? or do you have a 2003 server at psi? 
for me it looks like a incompatibility of a stack, boffer overrun or somethin 
in the memory. for me it really only occurs under win 2003. thats what i'm 
wondering. the system memory test of the server was ok (no virus, non 
controller problem or something, else, checked the hole stuff agian, just to 
be really shure!) , other apps don't have any problmes (it isonly iis 6 and 
mercure mail server runnig on this system with about 20gb free disk and about 
500mb ram totally and a pentium 4). 
 
if you think you have a chance to reproduce the problem i can zip the config 
file and the log for you. but in my opinion, you will need a win 2k3.  
 
i'd chdcked the file system rights again to be shure that they are ok. also 
i'd checked that elog run as a system service under win 2k3. it should have 
all rights. changing to run eleog with administrator rights didn't change 
anything. 
 
would be great to find out what's happen. in the mean time i let it untreaded, 
hoping no one will click treaded view...  ;-)  for security, the servie is 
configured to restart if it hangs and to boot the system in an emergency, but 
it shouldn't happen evry hour... 
 
thakX!

I agree. It's most probably a stack overflow problem. The stack size must be less 
on a win 2003 server compared to a xp machine. I know that the threaded display 
requires some more stack space than the other displays. But unfortunately I have 
no win 2003 server here to try.
