Error sending Email via "xxx.xxx.xxx.xx": Syntax error, parameters in command "MAIL FROM: christopher_warner@xxx.gov SIZE=1985" unrecognized or missing


There are two possible reasons:

1) The email address "christopher_warner@xxx.gov" is invalid. Some SMTP server immediately complain about invalid email addresses and refuse to send any mail then. In that case just supply an existing email address or remove that test account.

2) The SMTP server does not like the "SIZE=xxx" option. This comes from a single line in elogd.c:

snprintf(str, strsize - 1, "MAIL FROM: %s SIZE=%d\r\n", from, strlen(text));

you could just go there and remove the " SIZE=%d", so that the line looks like:

snprintf(str, strsize - 1, "MAIL FROM: %s\r\n", from);
to see if that makes any difference.

Ok, so I removed the SIZE=xxx parameter, which is not strictly necessary anyhow I believe. So wait for the next release, and you can try.

If I have a logbook that will let both registered users Anonymous users post. I would like the author attribute to default to the value in $long_name but if the post is Anonymous display a default text string "Anonymous". Is it possible to do this?

Is there a way for user to unsubscribe from a logbook? Can a user delete their own account?

How do I enable SSL with port 443 in version ELOG V2.7.8-2294 and rename from localhost?

Server is running Windows 2008

We got http://servername:8080 to work and on the network just fine..

but everytime we try to change the port to 443 in global we cant get anything with https:// working 

port = 443

ssl = 1

url = https://servername

how do you customize the elog.exe or elogd for windows enviorment to listen on port 443 with specific hostname. please give an example.

Thanks...

how do I compile elogd with USE_SSL=1?

You normally don't need to specify "URL = xxx" at all. It is only needed if you work with a Proxy that changes the normal ELOG URL. And yes, you'll need "Port = 433" and "SSL =1".

And elogd must be compiled with USE_SSL=1, maybe that's your problem?

In addition you should buy a valid SSL certificate. Otherwise every user needs to acknowledge an exception for your invalid SSL certificate.

HI Guys,

Can you please give me an idea how will I write in the config. I want my elog will be accessed via internet. Though there's a tutorial / guideline, I need an actual config file for me to easily grasp how the URL = xxx should be write. Do my port should be Port = 433 and SSL=1?

Thanks,

By the Makefile i belive you are refering to the elogd.cfg? if not what file do I have use?

I have added

port = 443

ssl = 1

Without sucess.

I then tried

port = 443

use_ssl = 1

still no sucess.

I cant find any file that has "#USE_SSL =1" that I can uncomment. I am using an older version of ELOG (ELOG278-2)  reading all the documentation I cant seem to figure it out.

I also configured elogd to listen on port 443

Opened a CMD window and entered >elogd -p 443

Says listening on port 443 but still not working.

On the most curent version of ELOG 3.1.0 I just modify the elogd.cfg added ssl = 1 and change the port to 443 and everthing works as advertised. I do the same on this version and I cant get it working. I could really use some help. Thanks for the fast response.

Very easy: uncomment the line USE_SSL=1 in the Makefile and then compile.

You'll need of course a gcc compiler on your Windows system, a makefile environment, SSL libraries, etc.. If you don't have that: ask you local administrator.

Maybe I did something to make it shorter? ELCode shows as a full box but plain txt is very short box.
