| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 3.1.1 | Re: Image source url missing | This is another piece of information to help in the debugging. To my standards logbooks, I have added the "demo". On the demo I can upload pictures while I can't on the other logbooks.
This is indicating that the bug has something to do with the logbook configuration other than with the editor or the image upload plugin.

Yes, I can confirm that the image button upload does work in the Linux Demo logbook (Windows 10 client host, Firefox 47.0 client) and it still does not work in this Forum.

Andreas, there is something strange. It looks the problem is "configuration dependent" because I tried to upload a picture on the Linux Demo logbook and there it works. Can you confirm this too?

Okay, I can confirm this bug: with Windows 10 using Firefox 47.0 the dialog hangs as soon as I press "Send it to the server". When it returns, it did not upload anything. That is why it asks for URL after pressing OK.
Quick fix: just attach the image and use the URL of the attachment.
I did it here: 
Cheers

Dear Stefan, this is to confirm that also from my personal laptop from home I have the same issue. No pictures uploaded to this server from windows 10.
Which OS & Browser are you using?

Dear Stefan, thanks for your answer.
I tried to add a picture to this reply but I got the same error message with both Firefox and Chrome.
For sure the pictures were not included in the message, but I have the feeling they were not even uploaded to the server.
(I'm on Windows 7)
Thanks for your help,
Antonio

I entered this image exactly as you described. When I click OK, the dialog disappears. Can you check if it works for you on this server? Maybe with different browsers?

Dear all, sorry for asking you another question, but today after I finally recovered all my logbook entries, I updated to elog 3.1.1 and now I have a problem uploading images.
This is what I do:
- Click on the insert "Image" button in the editor toolbar
- In the popup window I select the picture I want to upload and then press "Send to server". I see the file appearing among the attachments at the bottom of the message.
- I click OK, but the popup complains that the Image Source URL is missing. Indeed when I switch to the other tab the URL field is open.
I have tried on your demo logbook and after the image is sent to the server, the URL field is automatically filled.
What am I doing wrong? With 2.9.2 it was working normally.
Thanks again and best regards
Antonio

Find all entries which have this attribute empty. Then click on Select, then select all, then click on Edit, then change all values. There might be a limit how many entries you can select in one go, so you might have to do it in bunches.

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 3.1.4 | Unable to add entries with command line elog.exe with SSL | Dear all,
we have a running elog installation using SSL (with the self-signed certificate). Generally we use the web interface, but we have been asked if it was possible to automatically insert elog entries via command line.
elog.exe should be the answer and so I gave it a try.
I was trying the following command line:
elog.exe. -h server-ip-address -p 8080 -l demo -s -v -u username password -a "Mass=0" This is a test entry
Of course server-ip-address and username / password were proper fields.
When I was doing this from the server itself, I got the following message:
Successfully connected to host server-ip-address, port 8080
Possibly invalid certificate, continue on your own risk!
and then the entry was inserted, but when I was typing the same from any other PC I got the error message:
Successfully connected to host server-ip-address, port 8080
elogd server does not run SSL protocol
The entry is of course not added and also the server (that is running in very verbose mode) reported a
SSL_accept failed
How can I fix it?
Thanks for helping,

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 3.1.4 | Re: Unable to add entries with command line elog.exe with SSL | Dear Andreas,
thanks for your message.
Here are the answers to your questions.
- Tomorrow I will try to restart the server on port 443, at least temporary, to see if it makes any difference
- We don't have a real certificate, but just the self-signed certificate that comes with the standard distribution of elog. Of course, I have to accept an exception when connecting from the browser. When I try to add an entry to via the command line from the server itself, I get the message Possibly invalid certificate, continue on your own risk! but it works.
- I hope so. This is the elog.exe that comes with the standard distribution, so I have to presume so. It is the same version that is installed on the server, where it works.
Thanks again and more tomorrow...

I am using SSL with ELOG and it works fine with the "elog" executable. I am no expert on SSL, but I can provide my two cent what you could try, maybe it helps:
- SSL desires to run on the port 443 - I have no idea if you can force it to run on an arbitrary port, it might be possible. But does it make sense?
- Certificates are checked against the provider of the certificate. I guess this works fine from your web browser? Or did you just add a security exception?
- Has the installed "elog.exe" been compiled with SSL support on?

Changing to port 443 doesn't help. I keep having exactly the same behaviour, it is to say:
