Thank you a lot !!

Hi all,

first off all let me say, that I realy like this great tool. That is a lot of help for keeping our server documentation up-to-date. Thanks to all contributors for that.

I right here, because I actually have an issue with saving entries working with IE11 (but also in IE9). When ever I enter an entry, and click the save button, the page open a page with the text: "OK 1"   or the second attemp: "OK 2"   3rd  "OK 3" and so on (see screenshot). To get back to my Item list, I have to click the back button in the internet explorer. I also opens a lot of draft entries in my databases.  When I submit my entry, I don't have an issue, and the entry is saved correctly.

This issue doesn't happen when using Google Chrome.

Had anyone an simlar issue using elog with IE?  It would be great to have some help with that issue.

Thanks

Torsten

Hello Stefan,

thanks for you reply. I tried an ujpdate today to my old installation, but also after cleaning the IE cache, the problem consists. The same result is, when doing a clean new installation, with the default elog.cfg and and cleaned cache as well an IE that was reseted to defaults.  

I am running version v3.1.1 3f311c5 now.      Do you maybe have another idea, to fix that issue.

Thanks

Torsten

Hello,

I've noticed that many times, I start an elog and continue editing adding to a few hours later, then I submit and it deletes everything I entered after the last time a draft was saved. I paid more attention and saw that it saves a draft after about a few minutes, and if I wait too long before submitting, it doesn't let me re-save the draft. My workaround is to copy all text before I submit, so if it ignores whatever I entered after the last saved version, I can edit it and paste it back in. Is there a setting someplace that I can change to fix this problem?

Thanks!

Hello,

I started using the record date feature in one logbook, since we plan to copy over old entries Joplin/Onenote. When starting a new entry, I see that the record date is automatically set to the current date, but when I reply to an elog, the record date is automatically set to the record date of the elog I'm replying to. Is there a way to fix this?

Hello,
I like the ELcode feature that lets you easily make an internal link to an attachment in the same post. However, I wasn't able to get this to work in the html editor, even though it's possible to use the ELcode format to link to another post in the logbook. When I type in elog :/1 in the html editor (without the space) and submit (even with an attachment present), it weirdly gets changed and shows up as 61/1 in the submitted elog, without any hyperlink. As far as I know we're using the standard elog code and only modified css parameters. Is there another syntax to link to attachments in html?
Testing it out here: 69699/1  (elog :/1 without the space turned into 69699/1)

thank you!

Great software.

Okay, so I've done my reading through the forum and got a couple of nuggets along the way but I am still unable
to get the e-mail function to work.  I am using Windows IIS to make an SMTP virtual server to shimmy around the
IT firewall.  That appears to work as I can see the response from the external SMTP server while running elogd
with the -v flag.  The elogd -v details are below:  

Email from xxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx.com to xxxxxx.XXXXXXX@XXXXX.com,XXXXX.XXXXX X@XXXXX.com, SMTP host
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.XXXX.XXXXX.com: 
220 smtp.xxxxx.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 6.0.2600.2180 ready at   Mon, 26 Jan 2009 10:56:35 -0500 
EHLO xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxx.xxxxx.com

535 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful 
==== Return ================================  

From the SMTP server response it is not logging in, but I don't know why.  I can log in to the webmail app with
the username/password provided to ELOG, but it doesn't appear to work through ELOG. The SMTP provider includes
the following info to setup e-mail accounts via SMTP: "Please note: To send e-mail using the SMTP-Server,
activate SMTP Authentication. Please do not use the Secure Password Authentication (SPA) option. Optionally,
port 587 can also be used in addition to the default port (25) RFC 2476." 

For authentication via the Windows IIS I have "basic authentication" with no TLS encryption required - I'm not
sure if that meets the provider's "SMTP authentication" requirement.  When I was using the previous version of
ELOG (sorry, I did not note the version number) the username was encrypted along with the password.  With the
2168 build, the password is still encrypted but the usernamer is not; should the password be in "plain text" as
well?  

I can provide you with a username/password for the SMTP provider I'm using if that will help.  Please send me a
separate e-mail and I will reply with the information.  

Thank you,
