The problem lies in the ELCode parsing. When you post an entry in ELCode form, the elogd server has to parse every word to see if it's any of the ELcode tags. This is right now implemented in a kind of poor way, such that it takes very long for long entries. I will work to optimize that. In the meantime, it will help if you post such long entries just in "plain" form.

Hi Stefan,

I have posted an entry of approximately a thousand lines (ten thousand words). Posting it took some time, which is logical to a certain degree. However, whenever a user asks for "Full" view of the logbook, the page takes around two minutes to load and the CPU usage on the elog server goes to beyond 90% for all this time. Is this to be expected for an entry of that size or is there something going wrong here?

Thanks,
Dimitris

I tried but I was unable to obtain a free account. Furthermore, the problem is probably related to your SMTP server's authentication method. There are many methods and ELOG only supports a subset. So I would have to try with your specific SMTP server. So the only recommendation I can give you is to find an SMTP server without authentication. That one will certainly work with elog.

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.

Regards, Greg

Your verbose output seems to be only partial. I have modified the verbose output recently, so please update to a more recent version of elog. With 2.6.2-3 I get for example
Email from stefan.ritt@psi.ch to stefan.ritt@psi.ch, SMTP host xxx.psi.ch:

Now I installed 262-4 but no change. communication seems to be stopped at the same point.

I downloaded the latest version just yesterday. I checked again now; it is version 2.6.2-3. I'll wait some time for release of new build of windows binaries. Mine differs from yours as a one build number only.

Thanks for prompt answer.

Another question is; Can I change the port number of the smtp server? Some servers use another port than 25.


All server I met so far were running on port 25, so I hardcoded this in elogd.c. You can change it in the source code at line 2119:
bind_addr.sin_port = htons((short) 25);

If more people ask for this, I can make it a parameter.
