Whenever you ask for it 

I made you an elog274-1.exe containing revision 2118.

Hi,

When the WINDOWS binaries with the latest bug fixes will be available on the download page ?

Have a nice day

 Try the following:

• Put logfile = elog.log into your elogd.cfg
• Upload an image to get the error
• Examine your elog.log file

You should get something like:

23-Jul-2008 15:10:38 [] Server listening on port 8080 ..
23-Jul-2008 15:10:52 [stefan@127.0.0.1] {demo} SHELL "convert "logbooks\demo\080723_151052_Capture.png" "logbooks\demo\080723_151052_Capture.png.png""

In your logfile. Now try the "convert" command manually under the same account elogd is running. Possible reasons for problems are:

• The "convert" command is not in your path or links to another program. Unfortunately ImageMagick chose a pretty standard name for this program
• The account under which elogd is running does not have write access to the logbook directory
• converts wants to call ghostscript for PDF conversion, but it is not installed
• ...

Type Reporter = useremail
Preset Reporter = $user_email

 This was a bug. I fixed it in SVN revision 2118.

Hi, I would like to preset an attribute type useremail with $user_email but that does not work because $user_email contains mailto: like mailto:user_email@domain
Has anyone an idea how to resolve this problem?

Type Reporter = useremail
Preset Reporter = $user_email

I get the following error where thumbnails should go: Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation.

I restarted elog and check the log, it does in fact detect ImageMagick and it does have the most recent version. I'm running ubuntu 2.6.24-19-server.  Is there something else I should be checking?

 Another funny problem. When I'm uploading a file, the syslog says this:

and then crashes!

Hi there, I just compiled and installed elog on a machine running the newest Ubuntu server. Everything went fine - no problems. Running elog on it's own (no apache).  I moved over a bunch of logbooks from an older elog, which seemed to work. Now, elog seems to crash when people are uploading files. Here is a snip from my syslog, and you can see each time it crashes with "error 4."

I run elog as:

Usr = elog

Grp = elog

/usr/local/sbin/elog -p 8080 -c /usr/local/elog/elogd_exo.cfg -D

where elogd_exo is my config file. Nothing special in my config file.
