  68367   Thu Jul 21 13:08:44 2016 Question Antonio Bulgheroniantonio.bulgheroni@gmail.comQuestionWindows3.1.1Image source url missing

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

I know this thread is realy old. Anyways I would like to give a +1 on this request.  As a workaround I currently wrote a small PHP Image Hosting/Upload Script and embedded a link to it in the Menue. 

On that page the user uploads the image and gets a link which he/she can embedd using the button... Easy, but a bit to complicated for some users ;)

Right now it is not possible to easily include pictures into the message body, but I put it on the wishlist. Of course you can always refer to external pictures if you submit your text as HTML and put the proper tags there like this one:

and you can even scale them like

but of course this requires to have that image stored somewhere else. I will probably add a feature like

att:name.gif

which will reference a picture from the attachment, and will be converted to the full picture name after submitting that message.

I have just made a fresh installation of ELOG 3.1.1 on a windows machine and unfortunately it is not working. If I try to insert a picture with the image button, the dialog complains that the image url is missing. If I drag-and-drop the picture on the edit area, it gets attached but not added as picture.

I tried already on two different computer and on the basic elog configuration.

Can you crosscheck it on your side on a win pc?

 

Thanks smiley

  68372   Thu Aug 4 14:28:18 2016 Angy Chris Smythchris.smyth@comcast.netQuestionWindowsELOG V2.7.8-229SSL

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,

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.
