You can use command to test your email service and your username and password. 

telnet your.email.host  25

ehlo hostname

auth login

(input your username)   note that:the username and password should be generaterd by command perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print encode_base64 (“username”)’ 

(input your password)

Then you can test the server and username and password are right or not.

And you can set "Logging level = 3" elogd -v and see what is going on?

Hi,

I'm sorry that I'm not familiar with the stunel. I came across email sending problem before. I created a email server in my own PC called postfix. Elog can use this email server to send email. Finally, I could use the email server from our institution. Maybe Luedeke or Stefan can help you.

Hi all,

A error came out when I pasted a photo in the text area with  HTML Encoding. The photo is a snapshot from Print Screen. When I submitted it, it said "Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd". How can I get rid of this? I've tried changing elogd.cfg that: ;Message Height = ;Message Width = or Message Height = 500 Message Width = 500. None of these work.

By the way, I want to ask another question that whether it can load a photo on local disk not only the photo URL by click image of the Image info in CKEditor. Can CKFinder integrate in CKEditor and then it can browse local file on tab of image info. My colleagues prefer pasting photos in text area than uploading it as attachment in our site.

Any advice or sugguestion will be appreciated.

Thanks for your advice! I've test that dropping an image from my local disk into the text box with Elog-3.1.2. It did work. However, I still have a question want to ask that When I paste a small image into the text area, I can submit it successfully. But when I paste a bigger one, it will say "Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd". And There's the same result in https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/. I can drop the image into text area now, so it doesn't matter.

I just test on your Demo logbook. I use a screen-capture tool to create an image which doesn't been saved as a file, the size is 1920*1080(1.8M), then copy it in clipboard, and then paste in text area. Then the web page become very slow, so that I can't submit it sometime. Sometime, I can submit it but it say "Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd". If I drop an image file into the text area, it works. I used IE11.

If the older elog has some customized file such as logbooks, elogd.cfg, elog.css, images and so on,  What's the best way to update elog to newer release? Is it the only way to copy these files to the new release?

Hi all,

I have two attributes defined like following

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Icon, Category, System, Subject

ROptions Category = Shift Summary, Report, Reply, Fault, Issue, Resolved, Maintenance

IOptions Icon = icon1.gif, elc_list.png, icon3.gif, icon8.gif, icon4.gif, icon14.gif, elc_anchor.png

Icon comment icon1.gif = Shift Summary
Icon comment icon3.gif = Reply
Icon comment icon4.gif = Issue
Icon comment icon8.gif = Fault
Icon comment icon14.gif = Resolved
Icon comment elc_list.png = Report
Icon comment elc_anchor.png = Maintenance

When the Shift Summary category being selected, I wish the icon1.gif Icon being selected automaticlly, as well as when icon8.gif being selected, Fault category be selected. How can I get this? Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated.

Cheers,

Xuan
