God really STRANGE and problematic effect on 2.5.5-1 (can't remember it this
was with 2.5.5 or 2.5.4-X but i'm nearly sure it worked well):

Entering a date (Formate Bithday = date) may crash down the server:
Value is 22.2.2004: Everything is well
Value is 22.2.1962: Server crashes emmediatly (menas restarzing several
times, always the same problem)

I do not have time to check true all the years for finding out where the
problem may beginn, sorry. Also I was not able to check on other systems
right now. My system: Win XP Pro SP 1, IE 6 as well as Mozilla Calssic 1.7.3. 

Didn't check it under Linux right know in case of a lot work.

Clould you this fix please Stefan???  THANK'X!!!
  830   Mon Dec 6 20:05:58 2004 Question PJ Meyerpjm@pjmeyer.orgBug reportWindows Login/Password request appears twice
Have set up 3 top level groups, each with their own password file.
Ever since users have to 'login' twice to get to the appropriate elog.
You click on top level group, get to log book and click on the one you want 
and get login/password dialog box, click ok and and you get it again and 
then you finally get into the elog book.

Anything I can check on this behavior?
  840   Thu Dec 9 18:39:15 2004 Question auserauserQuestionLinux Anyone try doing majordomo->Elog?
Hi all,

We currently have Elog postings mirrored on to a majordomo email list. 
Invariably, people on this list reply to the listserv and not to the Elog. 
Has anyone tried getting emails to a listserv to autoformat and register as
proper elog entries.  Didn't see any mention of this in the docs or forums.

Thx

hello, 

i need to use a perl script with LWP to automatically update our elog
entries. we use ELOG internally.

however, I am not sure what elog checks for when doing the post through
form. and the auto-submit script always failed and returns "200 EOF". i can
get to the login part and grab form entry. its only the submittion failed.

let me know if you need more info to help me solve the problem.

thanks.

What you can do is run the elog submit utility with the "-v" flag (verbose) and
grap the output. It's HTML code, but you should see any error message there.

I personally use Elog *instead* a majordomo email list. You can either specify
a email list in the elogd.cfg file, or you can keep a list of users in the
password file with automatic email notifications, that's how this forum works
for example. But I don't know if you can give up your majordomo list.
  846   Mon Dec 13 19:46:46 2004 Question David Kappelngreply@gmx.netRequestWindows Extendable options for conditional attributes
Hi,

right now I'm testing Elog to use it as a task/todo-log for our small 
workgroup. What I saw so far looks very nice and I like it very much. 
Thanks for the good work.

Playing with all the configuration possibilities I have one issue:
I like to use the "Extendable options" but I can't combine them with 
the "Conditional attributes".

-- snip

Options Area = Area_1{1}, Area_2{2}, Area_51{3}
{1} Options Ressort = Res01, Res whatever, end so on
{2} Options Ressort = somthing else, fill in
{3} Options Ressort = Alien observation, Budget planning
Extendable options = Ressort

-- snip

The "Conditinal Attributes" do have the "Add Ressort" button and the elog-
entry is written with this new attribute. But the new attribute is not 
inserted into the config file.

Long time ago I last read C syntax but mabye the function 
add_attribute_option should take care of the prefix {n} in extendable 
options?

Or do I miss something in the configuration syntax? 

  Regards,

  David

I happened to find something interesting when trying my perl script. it hangs the
elog system with hand-crafted http header.

I also sent email with more detail on this. just want to make sure you are aware of
this.
