Preset on reply Author = $long_name

Do not use "Remove on reply".

This has been fixed recently, please update.

I tried to use your config file and add

Fixed attributes reply = Subject, Category

and it worked as expected. What kind of "break" did you observe?

This worked. Thanks.

Agani, thanks for the information.

For me, when I put the Category in the fixed attributes for reply, I see the
Category but when I actually try to send the message - it says Category not
entered. I am sure I am doing something very stupid. Please help.

No, it was a bug, which I could reproduce now. I fixed it in revision 1.554. It will
be contained in the next release.

Thank you very much

The problematic part is the "\" in the filename, which is not correctly recognized as a directory. I will fix this in the next release. For now, just click on the Browse button, navigate to d:\, and then select there the file aaa.doc.

Hi, I'm having the same problem, too, when attempting to upload an attachment.  I'm using version 2.7.3-2095.

I wasn't able to attach an image by clicking on the Browse button, clicking on the desired file, hitting the Open button, and then hitting the Upload button.  I just noticed that I could upload my error screen to this forum:

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I tried to compile ELOG on Scientific Linux Cern 4.4 and found that make quits because uname is not located in /usr/bin (like it is hardcoded in the makefile) but in /bin.
Later I found that this is only the case in the svn version, in the "latest.tar.gz" from 2007/02/20 the path is /bin.
Why do you have the absolute path in the Makefile? uname should be in the default path on any system. (The same applies to "rm")

I also was confused that you only provide one rpm Package (except for debian) without mentioning for which distribution. You try to avoid dependencies, but the elogd is linked against the basic libraries libc and ld-linux, which might vary.


Ups. The hard-coded /usr/uname somehow sneaked in from some temporary test. I removed it in the current SVN.

Indeed the RPM package I provide is built under Scientific Linux. The Debian port is done by someone else. Unfortunately I don't have ten boxes with all possible distributions laying around, so my possibilities are quite limited and I depend on third party help. If you want to contribute additional RPMs you are welcome.

Hi!

Looking at your config file it seems that a lot of the attributes are not user-specified but rather auto-generated content. You may want to consider using the elog client to submit such entries; this might avoid performance issues related to communication of the server with the web browser used for entry generation. This way, event entries can even be automatically created by other software rather than having a user to submit them.

 Yoshio,

Thanks for the suggestion.

We have actually tried running the elog server with a very minimal set of attributes, all of which were human entries, and still had response times that were entirely unacceptable.  So, unfortunately this path won't solve all our issues.
