Can you please make a change to have the Quick Filter ComboBox controls reference the field type for ordering purposes?

For example, if attribute Lot Number is Type Numeric then the ComboBox should be listed in numerical order instead of alphanumeric (eg: 1,2,3,11,21 vs 1,11,2,21,3).

Best Regards.

Hi, 

could it be possible to increase the limit of entries in Login user list from 100 to somewhat reasonably higher? Like twice or 3 times as much. Similar limit exist also on Admin user list, which is afair 10, could this also be increased?

Hi Janusz,

You can change the following line in elogd.h and recompile:

#define MAX_N_LIST      100
That'll change the login user list limit. But it'll change other list length as well - which should not do harm unless you are very short of memory.

I don't see the Admin user list limit of 10 - aparently that is hard coded somewhere deep within (or I've just missed it).

Cheers, Andreas

Thanks, good point, I was not sure that in case of other lists which will be changed as well, there will not be any problems, like overflow, etc. 

Regarding admin list, now I remember, that was the limit to send email notification in case of registration requests. But actually it is not important right now.

Well, many arrays based on MAX_N_LIST are created on the heap memory, and if you exceed that, elogd simply crashes. There are compile options to increase the stack and heap size, but that depends on the operating system and the compiler. The value of 100 has been proven to work everywhere. If you increase it, you're on your own.

Hi,

We've made changes in our network and now we have to use port 587 instead of port 25, how can i edit that parameter?

Thanks

This is nicely explained in the documentation: https://elog.psi.ch/elog/config.html#global

I believe Yanick means the SMTP port, not the port under which elogd is listening. The SMPT port is hard wired to 25, because port 587 was not yet defiend when I wrote that code. I can make this a variable, but only if it works. So Yanick can you test if port 587 accepts normal SMTP commands? We don't have such a new server at our lab and I cannot test it. Under Windows you can open a command prompt and telnet to the mail server:

telnet <server> 587
HELO test
MAIL FROM: test

your server should then reply with "220 ..." and "250 ..." messages. Once this works, I will implement the variable SMTP port.
