I suspect that this might be a Debian packaging issue; however no one replied to my help request on the Debian forums so I try posting the question also here. I insatlled Elog on my Debian Jessie machine, I can open it with a browser but when entering a new post just a simple plain text editing box is shown instead of the WYSIWYG editor, and no drag and drop area for attachments is shown. When I start the elog service with "systemctl start elog" I get this suspect message in the journal: "FCKedit NOT detected". Indeed, I see that the elog installation creates a symlink which I guess is supposed to point to the fckeditor installation, which nevertheless is missing:

root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll fckeditor
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Oct 25  2014 fckeditor -> ../../fckeditor
root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll ../../fckeditor
ls: cannot access ../../fckeditor: No such file or directory

Is this a Deban misconfiguration or a bug in Elog? thanks

Hi all,

I'm experiencing an issue on Kubuntu 24.04 where the WYSIWYG editor (in HTML mode) doesn't appear at all. This happens across multiple browsers (tested with Firefox and Chromium). The editor area is simply blank, without any visible toolbar or editable content area.

Has anyone encountered this on Kubuntu or found a workaround? Any tips would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Pawel

Is it possible to make the logbook summary screen sort differently
 
For example on a customer name field it displays as follows :-

AEF
AXA
Abc
Acd
Ade
Aef
aaa
aab

Its sorting alphabetically but is putting upper case characters before 
their lower case equivalents, which in a customer list where lots of 
initials are used its making the list look non sorted rather than truely 
based on the character regardless of case.

Thanks in advance.

Something to add to the wishlist:

- Type <attribute> = user

This would define an attribute as being of the type "user" which is a list
of login id's as defined in a password file or on the "Login user =" line. 
In a dataentry form the presence of this ATTRIBUTE would result in a
picklist of loginid's and/or fullnames.

Hi,

  - Configuration File Disclosure (CVE-2019-3992)

  - Password Hash Disclosure (CVE-2019-3993)

  - Use After Free (CVE-2019-3994)

  - NULL Pointer Dereference (CVE-2019-3995)

Am I doing soimething wrong?

sysadmin will not allow me to use it until it is fixed....

Any help is welcome.

Hello.

Today I wanted to download latest elog version, and got information from Eset Endpoint Antyvirus, that downloaded file has trojan horse "Generic.GQWFFXB".

It this false positive alarm?
