Re: elog client overwriting attached files when editing existing log, posted by Edmund Hertle on Mon Sep 21 10:14:50 2015

Hey,
I think this is a "problem" of the elog client, since it simply replaces the data. In most cases this is what you want, but since I wanted to have the option to append to the acutal message I built a function to first read-back the entry and add to the message instead of replacing it.
I just played around a bit and found that the attachments will be even disconnected, if you do not specify the -f parameter but just edit a different part of this entry.
A work-around for this is tricky. I tried to write to the "Attachment" attribute directly (-a "Attachment=Filename'), since then you coud read back the data first and manually add the filenames again. But this does not work.
Since the attachments are not actually removed, the only option I see is to modify the logbook file entry on the server by manually re-adding the filenames to the "Attachment: " line. But

Using the elog client to upload atachments, I can successfully send attachments to an existing elog, however the existing attachments are lost.
I have tested using the elog client version 3.1.1 and elog client version 2.9.2 sending to elogd 2.9.0
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l test -f file1.png -f file2.png -e 249 -v -x
This works great, the text contained in the elog post is retained, however all attachments are lost and replaced with those sent by this command.
Can anyone provide some tips? I am not sure if its a problem with the client or server.
Thank you in advance!

Hey,
this sounds more like a PHP issue.
Which PHP version are you using?
Which webserver?
Which php function are you using: shell_exec() or exec()? Try looking at the return of exec()
Is the elog file set to the correct file permissions to be executed by the webserver?
Is the elog file in the PHP path or do you take care of defining the correct path?

inline jpg to png, posted by Jacky Li on Sun Oct 4 20:29:01 2015

Hi,
We have a user who posted a lot of inline jpg. The elog system converted those to png and thus cause the size of the elog to expand about ~4x of the original size. It is caused the problem of entry size too large for email notifications. Is there a way to turn off the conversion to png picture file? May I know also know why it converts to png to store on the server? Thank you very much.
