Hi John,

I use ImageMagick 6.9.3-10 on my Mac OSX 10.11.5 and it works fine. So apparently the parameters of the ImageMagick program have been changed. If you set the logging level to 2 or higher, you should see the "convert" and "identify" commands in the logging file. If you try these commands manually from the command line, you will see if they succeed or give an error. Please post this error here so I can have a look.

Cheers,
Stefan

Since I posted that, there have been multiple versions of Imagemagick released through brew for the Mac in the last few weeks, and I'm now using 6.9.4-9, which seems to work fine with thumbnails again, indeed, I noticed that as soon as 6.9.4-8 was released, I was back to normal, but thanks for the debugging pointer.

The debian version of elog is pretty old with quite a number of bugs fixed in meantime. Unfortunatlely the debig packase has not bee updated by the maintainers. So better download the current version from bitbucket and compile elogd yourself.

Dear all

I installed elog from the current stable repository on Debian 8 (jessie)

The installation went on smoothly, I modified the configuration files of the Apache server as described in the manual to use the elog in parallel with an existing webserver and then I tested. The demo logbook loads fine and I see that elog created a folder for the logbook in /var/lib/elog/logbooks, which is the directory specified by default in the /etc/init.d/elog file.

Then I modified the /etc/elog.conf file, added the following lines in the global section (custompath is a local path) 

Resource dir = /<custompath>/elog/res
Logbook dir = /<custompath>/elog/logbooks

And I created a new logbook.

After restarting the elog service the second database is correctly created but both of them are still stored in  /var/lib/elog/logbooks so it seems the global configurations in the config file are overwritten.

How can I specify the custom folder so that the new logbooks are written there?

My group uses the precompiled Debian binary, and I use ELCode to format my log reports. (I've found it to be the easiest way to generate inline images)

Yesterday, I submitted an entry that renders correctly on the elog itself, but the email report that was sent to my collaborators was quite confusing, because every picture in it was the same. Interestingly, all the images used inline in the report were attached to the original, but they were stripped of their context.

I've attached screen shots of both reports.

The URL encoding of ']' as '%5D' appears to work:

[url=http://example.com?arrays[%5D=v1&arrays[%5D=v2]click here[/url]

Cheers, Andreas

When an attachment is later added to an exisiting entry, we see that the string "Uploaded <date>" has the wrong
time: in our case it is one hour into the future.
I'm testing it now here in the forum.

I can reproduce it in this forum: the Uploaded time should have been 10:35, but it shows 11:35.

Cheers, Andreas
