| Aled Isaac | c.a.isaac@swnsea.ac.uk | Info | Windows | ELOG V3.1.4-a04 | Re: Elog/ImageMagick under windows 11 |
I've managed to get it working and the problem wasn't what I thought it was. It turns out that ImageMagick v7 doesn't have a "convert.exe" program in the windows version due to some conflict with a disk conversion utility. The "convert.exe" has been replaced with a "magick.exe" and so I made a CONVERT.BAT script within the elog folder with content "magick %*". This workaround appears to have solved the problem.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me in getting the ImageMagick/figure scaling working on an elog running under windows 11 (Microsoft Windows Version 22H2 (OS Build 22621.3880)). I've followed the installation instructions and checked that $PATH contains the directory for both ImageMagick and GSS. In a 'command prompt' window, when I execute "identify -version" from any directory I get the response:
Version: ImageMagick 7.1.1-35 Q16-HDRI x64 d775d2a:20240714 https://imagemagick.org
Copyright: (C) 1999 ImageMagick Studio LLC
License: https://imagemagick.org/script/license.php
Features: Channel-masks(64-bit) Cipher DPC HDRI Modules OpenCL OpenMP(2.0)
Delegates (built-in): bzlib cairo flif freetype gslib heic jng jp2 jpeg jxl lcms lqr lzma openexr pangocairo png ps raqm raw rsvg tiff webp xml zip zlib
Compiler: Visual Studio 2022 (194033811)
which I believe is correct. I've looked through the source-code for the elog and I believe that upon initialisation elogd is looking for a response containing "ImageMagick" somewhere in the response [image_magick_exist = (strstr(str, "ImageMagick") != NULL);] so I'm not sure I understand why this isn't being satisfied. When I run elogd I get the statement "ImageMagick NOT detected. Image scaling will not work.".
I have the feeling that this is some security restriction in windows 11, so was wondering if anyone had seen this problem before and knew of a solution.
Many Thanks

I've rebootied the computer to make sure the server was running but still the same problem. Is there a basic requirement I should look at (Dotnet versionX or specific DLL required)?

No, there is no Dotnet or DLL required. Just start the ELOG server manually by clickin on Start/Programs/ELOG Server/Start ELOG server manually and watch if you can spot any error. One person reported that downloading again the package solved a similar problem. |

Thanks for the feedback, I found the problem, someone installed the AVG toolbar in Internet Explorer in the computers, and for some reason the AVG Error Redirection option prevents Elog from opening in Internet Explorer. |

Dennis Seitz wrote: |
Since we updated to 2.7.8 we've found a problem.
Previously, when we used
Subst on reply subject = Re: $subject
The new "Re: " text would appear in the "subject" field while the user was editing their reply, and they could edit or delete it.
Since 2.7.8, however, it does not appear while editing, but shows up only after the user submits their entry. We would prefer that this appears while the user is editing, because in some cases we want the users to have the option to modify this text. Was this intentional? Is there a way to restore the previous functionality?[...]

Sorry, that appears to be an undocumented bug fix :-)
The desired behaviour should be created by
Preset on reply subject = Re: $subject
The command "Subst" is supposed to overwrite the field after it is submitted.
From the documentation you will even find a nicer possibility:
Preset on first reply Subject = Re: $Subject
The prevent replies to build a long chain of "Re: Re: Re: ...."

Thanks for reporting that problem. I just implemented Suppress email on edit and this could have had some side effect. I tried however to reproduce your problem and was not able to. Trying the "minimal" configuration file, the email notifications were suppressed if the check box was checked, or if Suppress default = 3. Can you check if it works with a minimal config file, and if yes, what option in your "full" config file causes this effect? |

OK, you're absolutely correct. When I run Elog-2.6.2-1722 with a minimal 'elogd.cfg' the "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" flag does appear to behave as expected. Taking your advice I went through my local 'elogd.cfg' evaluating items to see where the problem starts and I found a problem. In my local config file I use conditional attributes to modify the "category" and "type" fields (in the posting form) and here is what I'm finding wrong. For this example I have set "Suppress default = 3" and the following actions take place:
1.) Select "New" to begin a post and the form displays correctly with NO "[] Suppress Email notification" checkbox showing.
2.) When selecting "Category" an choosing an appropriate menu item the form is then redrawn and now there is a problem, the "[] Suppress Email notification" checkbox is displaying. The checkbox does work correctly but the behavior I'm expecting is for no checkbox to display during the composition of this posting. Am I misunderstanding the behavior of the "Suppress default = 3" flag?
3.) Each of the other flag parameters appear to work as expected as used in the above example.
I have attached screenshots that demonstrate this behavior as well as a snippet of the 'elogd.cfg' file.
Hope this helps a little...
Thanks, Greg |

Yepp it helped. I could reproduce your problem and fix it. Can you try elog262-4.exe (Revision 1729)? |

Hi Stefan!
Just installed elog-2.6.2-1729 and it's working perfectly. I haven't had enough time to test it thoroughly yet but will report any problems I might find. As always thanks for your excellent work, I appreciate it.
