icon5.gif   Elogd crashes when submitting replies, posted by Cliff Shaw on Thu Dec 10 16:05:59 2009 

Hi Stefan,

I recently installed the latest Elog 2.7.8 revision 2277 after running Elog 2.7.7 revision 2246 for several months without any problems. However once I submit an entry by using the Reply command Elog crashes and Windows XP reports an error message screen. This also stops the elogd service.

I have pinpointed it down to the command "subst on reply Subject = $Subject" by removing my whole configuration file and just added the line "subst on reply Subject = $Subject" to your demo configuration file.

Elog seems to also stops the elogd service with any "subst on reply" command.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you,

Regards

Cliff Shaw

Hi Stefan,

I have noticed a problem when closing multiple log entries i.e entries which have more than 10 threads. I use Select -> Click the box that appears next to the thread I wish to close -> Edit.

As soon as I click on Edit the elogd service crashes and Windows displays an error message window. The only work around has been opening up all the threads and individually changing the "Status" to Closed. 

Forgive me if this issue has been raised before but I have looked throughout the Forum and could not see anyone experiencing the same problem.

Thanks

Cliff

Hi,

when I choose the Spanish language, the command Copy To isn't allowed. I have had to change the language file and  change the line:

Copy To = Copiar a

to

Copy To = Copy To

 

Bye!

Hi,

  We have been using Elog successfully as a shiftlog book for over a month 
now, but I recently ran into an annoying bug, I think.
  We had a thread that was created and was being replied to over several 
days.  We first replied to the original thread and then each subsequent 
reply was a reply of the previous reply.  When the thread reached above 13 
of these, the elogd.exe would crash everytime a user attempted to select 
the logbook that contained the enormous thread.  
  I found the only workaround was to manually delete the offending entry 
from the log file and to instruct my users to not reply to replies unless 
absolutely necessary.  I have been able to replicate this error across the 
rest of my logbooks as well.  If there is any more information you may 
need, please feel free to contact me.

Thanks,
Chris Jones

Many thanks for your quick reply to this issue.  I have also noticed that when 
moving a log entry that contains as few as 4 replies to replies with the "Move to" 
command that the elog server will crash.  I ran into this issue many times when I 
created a new logbook and was trying to move some of the longer threads into it.  
Please let me know if you would like me to send some sample entries from our 
logbook that illustrate this.

Thanks,
Chris    
icon5.gif   Use Email From not Working as Before..., posted by Christopher Jones on Mon Sep 13 20:44:35 2004 
Hi,

We just recently upgraded from an older version of Elog to the latest and
greatest, 2.5.4-2.  Everything is workinly nicely, except the "Use Email
From" option does not seem to work as before.  We have the option set so
that all e-mail that is sent should be from a single address, but instead it
just ignores that address and uses the e-mail address of the user currently
logged in.   

I have this set in the global section of the elogd.cfg:

Use Email From = elog@****.com

Please let me know if this is the intended function or if it may possible be
a bug.

Thanks,
Chris
icon5.gif   Where do I find information on setting up the text area as a template?, posted by Chris Jennings on Thu Aug 23 14:30:56 2012 

I would like to set up the text are as a template. The documentation indicates this can be done however I am unable to find reference to how it is accomplished.

icon5.gif   Sort by date prior to 2002, posted by Chris Jennings on Tue Sep 16 17:59:27 2014 

I have an attribute formatted as a date (but not labeled as date) and is sorted as second priority. The sort works fine until I enter a date older than Jan 1st 2002. When I do this it is sorted as the latest. Is this a bug or simply not designed to use dates this old?

Thanks in advance,

Chris
