  68542   Tue Jan 10 09:59:30 2017 Entry Christine Quicotc.quicot@free.frQuestionLinux3.1.2Limit number of characters for "login user" parameter string ?

Hello all,

I use ELOG for about 30 users, and I've listed their email adresses in the "login user" parameter, using the LDAP authentication.
As I had problems with the users from the end of the list (they couldn't log in the logbooks) I guessed that there is a max length for the string "login user" (or other parameter?). it seems to be a 1000 character limit.
How can I parameter this limit to another value? Is this value used for other parameters?

Thanks for your answer.

Hello,

I wonder if it's normal that in the sources files, new created mxml directory is empty.

In commit # a6e5962 4 files are deleted but not moved:

- src/mxml.c
- src/mxml.h
- src/strlcpy.c
- src/strlcpy.h 

 

Thank you

Hello all,

I would like to configure the email that is sent to notify users, when an entry is submitted:

- Is it possible to attach to the mail the files attached to the entry ?

- Is it possible to configure a string (with entry keywords) that will appear in the mail content instead of the default content ?

 

Thank you!

Christine

Hello,

I'm sorry but that's a part of the manual I've read many times, and I'm not interested in changing the subject of the email, but only body and attachements.

I guess that if I didn't find these answers in the manual, it's because the answer for both questions is no ?

 

Thank you

Hi,

Trying to create a new logbook from an existing one causes elog to crash.

output from DrMingw:
elogd.exe caused an Access Violation at location 00448c6e in module elogd.exe
Writing to location 6e206c65.

Registers:
eax=00240798 ebx=00000020 ecx=6e206c61 edx=00250088 esi=00000000 edi=69726500

cs=001b ss=0023 ds=0023 es=0023 fs=0038 gs=0000 efl=00000297

Call stack:
00448C6E elogd.exe:00448C6E
00445F17 elogd.exe:00445F17

as the service restarts elog the browser then displays:

"Cannot open file elog.pwd: No such file or directory
Please use your browser's back button to go back"

If you try and create a new logbook from scratch (i.e. not a copy) then the browser displays:

"Cannot open file elog.pwd: No such file or directory
Please use your browser's back button to go back"

In both cases the new logbook is created.

any ideas?

Chris

I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me in getting the ImageMagick/figure scaling working on an elog running under windows 11 (Microsoft Windows Version 22H2 (OS Build 22621.3880)).   I've followed the installation instructions and checked that $PATH contains the directory for both ImageMagick and GSS.  In a 'command prompt' window, when I execute "identify -version" from any directory I get the response:

which I believe is correct.  I've looked through the source-code for the elog and I believe that upon initialisation elogd is looking for a response containing "ImageMagick" somewhere in the response [image_magick_exist = (strstr(str, "ImageMagick") != NULL);] so I'm not sure I understand why this isn't being satisfied.  When I run elogd I get the statement "ImageMagick NOT detected. Image scaling will not work.".

I have the feeling that this is some security restriction in windows 11, so was wondering if anyone had seen this problem before and knew of a solution.

Many Thanks

I've managed to get it working and the problem wasn't what I thought it was.  It turns out that ImageMagick v7 doesn't have a "convert.exe" program in the windows version due to some conflict with a disk conversion utility.  The "convert.exe" has been replaced with a "magick.exe" and so I made a CONVERT.BAT script within the elog folder with content "magick %*".  This workaround appears to have solved the problem.

Hi,

Is it possible to store ELOG back-end database files in version control so as to synchronize multiple ELOG
instances?

Has anyone tried it? Any obvious show stoppers to such an approach?

Cheers,
-Brett.
