Drop attachments here..., posted by Xuan Wu on Wed Jun 23 03:48:22 2021

The function of "Drop attachments here..." is only for root user? I'd like it could be used by all users. |

I just used my own account to test the "Drag&Drop" function in this forum , and it failed. In our case, we need to upload ten more images into logbook at once, it's more effective to use "Drag&Drop" than "Browse&Upload" feature for "Browse&Upload" only can choose one attachment at once, but "Drag&Drop" can choose several attachments at once. The admin user can use this feature, but non-admin user not in our site. I did run the elog server as user "root". I'm not sure it is related to the problem.

I can't confirm this behavoiur. In our instance, every user can use the attachment function of the elog.
Either through "Drag&Drop" or "Browse&Upload" in the entry editor.
What do you mean by "root" user?
The elog can have serveral admin users, but this behaviour is equal for admin and non-admin users.
You should not run the elog server as user "root" of the machine for security reason, but also for issues with file permissions.

I could figure out the bug. A fix can be found in this commit.

In my testings I didn't found this behaviour, but my collegues also reported this issue.
So I searched for the difference between my test setup and the production logbooks.
I believe the "restrict edit = 1" config option may be responsible for this behaviour.
I had the browser console running in the background and "Drag&Drop" send an XHR request,
which failed with the message: "Only user can edit this entry".
This message is tied to the "restrict edit" option as far as I know.
So I tried removing the option and upload via "Drag&Drop" started to work as intended.
This behaviour only occurs for non-admin users, as admin users are not affected by
Can you verify this?
I can verify to get the same error message in this elog forum in the browser console.

Re: TEXTSIZE too big message, posted by Xuan Wu on Sat Apr 29 01:02:30 2023

Hi Illam,
You can find it in src/elogd.h, #define TEXT_SIZE 250000, the original value 250000, you can change it to a larger one like #define TEXT_SIZE 1000000. Then recompile it again, just need typing "make". Elog Version is 3.1.3 in my site. HTH.
Cheers,
Xuan Wu

Hi,
I'm getting the TEXTSIZE TOO BIG message every time I have more text in my entry. I understand there is a way to increase the TEXTSIZE and re-compile. Where can I find the TEXTSIZE parameter that I can increase and also how do I re-compile.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.
Illam

Install on Server 2003: , posted by Wythe IT on Mon Sep 15 16:22:39 2008

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!

I didn't realize that MSCVR71.dll is kind of outphased. I will add it to future distributions. For the moment, you can download it from the elog server directly.

Thank ya much. Worked perfectly. For others with this issue, download that linked file to your c:\windows\system32\ folder. |

change the Email From address used when sending notifications, posted by WootenE on Tue Jul 16 15:19:08 2002

Is there a way to change the From address used when sending notifications
from ELOG? I was hoping there might be another attribute that would go
along with the smtp host section.
Thanks,
