A picture can say more than thousand words.
Can you reproduce this with a simple configuration?
If yes, can you attach the configuration, the *a.log files,
a description of what firefox version you're using and please:
some screenshots of "before" and "after"?

Thanks!
Andreas

If you are capable to read the English language (which I suppose ), then I would recommend reading the manual, e.g. https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#global

PS: I happened to have the same problem (text erased after "back") when I had javascript disabled in the browser. If you have it enabled, you'll get a popup window that tells you what mandatory fields are missing in your post. Then you'll not need to use the back button.

 Hi David,

I've just tested it on my server running ELOG V2.9.0-2414, Scientific Linux 5.7 (RHEL 5.?) with ImageMagick 6.2.8: the attachment is uploaded but no preview is generated. No problem with the server.

What was the behaviour of your Solaris system? Did it upload? Did it create a preview?

BMP files are - in my experience - often very large. Could it be a file size problem? Did you try with a small BMP image?

I'm using Kerberos and SSL and experience problems with individual setting of "Login user =" for different logbooks.
Sometimes (not every time, but most times) the server crashes under the following condition:
When I login at one logbook and then change to a logbook, that has a restricted "Login user" list with my login
name not in it. It created the following GDB output:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
show_elog_list (lbs=0x916b768, past_n=0, last_n=0, page_n=0, default_page=1, info=0x0) at src/elogd.c:19793
19793         message_id = msg_list[index].lbs->el_index[msg_list[index].index].message_id;

Expected behaviour would be to show me the login page with the error message:
"you don't have access to this logbook".
This message is never shown for the attached configuration file.
If I remove the "Guest" commands for logbook "TestB" then elogd behaves properly.

For the moment I've just disabled "Login user" settings.

Regards
Andreas

Forget the previous post:
I cannot reproduce the problem with the latest version of elogd (2.9.2-2475).

Just my 2 cent: did you try to reproduce the problem with the latest ELOG version 2.9.2?

Kind Regards
Andreas
