I am using Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition.  It is up-to-date and a full legal version installed from a geniune MS disk (to put that notion out the way).  I host a variety of webpages from this server through IIS6.0.

I am having an issue after installation of the ELOG software.  I grabbed the newest version from this website and ran the executable.  It installed fine (or appeared to do so).

Upon starting the ELOG server I receive the following error:

elogd.exe - Unable to Locate Component

This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

The file in question is part of an ancient Visual C distributeable.  This distributeable for my purposes no longer appears to be available (as I am on .net 3.5).  I am unsure of downloading the older runtime libraries from sites that are not microsoft's.  I am curious as to how I could go about making elog execute.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!

How do I set a default list option?
 I have an attribute called Active with options yes, no
When I do a list I want to see just the records having yes.
When required, the quick filter allows me to see records with option = no or all the records.
Thanks

Running on windows server 2003.

Mysteriously from time to time i find ELOG has crashed and i must restart it.

Event log shows:

This has occurred twice so far in the month or less elog has been running.  The platform is stable and i have no other issues or negative events besides incorrect ASP calls here and there.  Thanks.

Faulting application elogd.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module elogd.exe, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0004b9c3.

Hi,

I've set up my ELOG configuration to display one summary line in the list view. However, a word from the next line creeps in from time to time. You can see this in my logbook - look at the 'Text' column for entries 805, 802 and 800 for instance. The word 'Shift' is from the second line of the entry, but it has been added to the summary text for some reason. Any ideas how I can fix this?

Just wondering if there is still a maximum number of mail recipients?  I saw  a number of 112 floating around in old forum entries, and I need more, like currently 300.  When I try it, the elogd hangs, not much output to speak of, but won't reply to Apache on its port.  Any quick fix (like changing a def'd variable somewhere?)

Hi,

how can i make the author field read only on new postings? It should take the value from $long_name after login and without login there is no way to make new postings.

This is a part of my elogd.cfg

Logfile = elogd.log
Logging level = 3
