Hello,

I tried to update our ELOG installation 2.7.8 to 2.9.0. If I try to start the service i get the error:

 

Error 193: %1 is not a valid win32 application.

I uninstalled the old version an installed the new one.

Do you have any Idea? The OS is windows 2000 Server.

Best regards

Michael

 

 

Could not start the elogd service on local Computer

Can you start elogd.exe manually in a DOS box? If you get the same error there, the download file might be corrupted and you should try to re-load it again.

 

Best regards,

Michael,

I had this problem with the service/elogd.exe not starting on the later versions of ELog and with Stefan's help we tracked it down to some missing Microsoft C runtime library files.
In my case it was a fresh install of Win2k3.

Try installing one the following and see if it helps (mine was solved with the middle option).

Andreas,

Doesn't using the Save Drafts = 0 option result in the old 'Back' button returning (replacing the Delete option) meaning you can revert back to your old (unmodified) version without saving, sure it doesn't save a draft but I'd rather be able to return back and lose the changes I didn't want then mess up an old entry, I guess the back button on the browser could also do what you want?

The issue I had was that entries were being deleted accidently by persons other than those that created them, I reduced the edit time to try and mitigate it but ended up going back to what we had in Ver 2.9.2, a 'Back' button.

The problem is that the elog database does not allow for a copy of an entry before you make modifications (and therefore get a "draft"). This is actually very simila to other note taking programs. I use Evernote, which constantly synchronizes between devices, and there I also cannot go back to the version before I started making modification. What one would need is a version system (and Evernote has one), so you can go back to the previous verison, the pre-previous version and so on. But this requires a complete redesign of the elog database.

A quick and dirty solution would be to store the origianal entry inside the browser (using JavaScript). You could then restore the initial version with a "cancel" button. But this mechanism relies then on the browser. If you just leave the page, there is no way the browser can put back the old version.

If I edit an old entry, and do some mistake while editing, then there is currently no way to savely discard the changes.

The problem is that the entry will become a draft: if I close the window without saving, then the whole entry is gone: it will be converted into a draft entry. But the draft does contain my changes, it is not the originally saved entry!

The draft mechanism should keep a copy of the entry before I opened it in edit mode, and allow to go back to that copy. The edit form has currently the buttons "Submit", "Save", "Preview" and "Delete"; it should have in addition the button "Cancel", that just closes the edit window without saving the entry and even deleting the draft that was saved while the entry was modified. This should bring you back to the previous list view.

Is anyone out there in favour of this change?

Stefan, I know this request was a long time ago on an older version of E-Log (which we are still using) but can you tell me if Tooltips on Radio Buttons was ever implemented, it's not working on our version (2.92.2)?
Working as it should on MOptions?

I can't seem to get the Tooltips to show up using the 'ROptions' (radio buttons) though? Could you check if it is available for this please?


Did I tell that it also works with 'ROptions' ??? It does not! I implemented this just now in revision 1788. The fix will be contained in the next release.

Hi

I am trying to add "Extendable options" for some attribute as below example. However button to add new item for list appears only for the first "Extendable options", if disable the first with (;), button appears for the second. It means elog add new item button only the first line "Extendable options" not for other?

Is this a limitation or bug or am I doing something wrong?

Options Require = N/A, Camera{1}, Lens{2}, Other{3}

Hello,

I'm observing the same behavior with ELOG V2.6.5-1844.

Is there a fix for this?

Best Regards,
Konrad

Hi,


Jacky Li wrote:
Ok,

I noticed that the email notification got two copies of the attached files to elog post. It looks like the cause is
between elog and the mail server. When there is email notification, the attachement is sent along to the mail server and that's taking a long time and there are two copies of the attachment.


Jacky Li wrote:
Hi,

I did more testing..if I suppress email notification, it is fast. There is something wrong there.



Indeed I can confirm that without email notification it's blazing fast. I haven't observed attachments being send twice. Though I got two indentical entries in the elog.

On my box I'm using sendmail. Until there is some fix in the way elog comunicates with mailer (if it is possible that is) could we have an option to suppress sending attachments in email notification?

Best Regards,
Konrad

There is such an option:
Email format = 47

This tells elog to send email notifications without attachments. Anyhow I would not recommend to send big attachments as emails, since most email systems won't allow you that. Since the attachments are base64 encoded, the encoding can also take quite a long time.


Great Smile. I missed this one while digging through documentation.
Maybe you could consider setting as default:
Email format = 111

Cheers,
Konrad
