icon5.gif   Unable to resize images in browser, posted by Matthew Deller on Tue Feb 18 21:32:27 2014 
I am unable to resize/ manipulate images in browser. Image Magick detected Version: ImageMagick 6.6.9-7 2012-08-17.

Output when running elog with verbose option shows buffer overflow when resize attempted:
[[Going to execute: /bin/sh -c "identify -format '%wx%h %c' '/home/elog/elog-2.9.2/logbooks/HardwareLog/140218_120423_2014-02-18_remod_(extended_II).png.png'" > /tmp/elog-shell 2>&1
Falling back to default group "elog"
Falling back to default user "elog"
*** buffer overflow detected ***: elogd terminated

Any ideas how to fix this? I'm not sure if this is a problem with the elog / Ubuntu / Image Magick?
icon5.gif   Unable to enter/edit time in user defined $date field?, posted by mark james on Tue Mar 22 12:03:04 2005 
I have defined a new field called "Record Date" to accept the dates from a
previous logging system. I am not too concerned with the timestamp
associated with these old imported entries. But for new entries...
There is no way I am able enter/edit the time into my new field. They all
show as having a time of 12:00. What am I doing wrong? Here is a portion of
my config

icon5.gif   Unable to add user, posted by Uwe Vollbracht on Sat Aug 6 18:38:50 2022 
Hi,

we're using elog to handle various logbooks. It's a great tool by the way. 
While replacing the Win32 2.7.8 Release with Release 3.1.4-2, we ran into the 
following problem.

Since elog is for internal usage only, we allow users to self-register if they 
are new. Therefore  "Self register = 1" is set in the [global]-area.

Using the Win32-Release of elog, it worked fine while using Release 2.7.8 or 
2.8.0. Starting with Release 3.x everytime you try do add a user, the following 
error occurs:

      Error: Command "config" is not allowed for user ""

No matter if the user self-registers or is added by an elog-admin-user. We 
tried various 3.x Releases from 3.1.0-1 up to the latest 3.1.4-2. 
The error-message remains the same. Curious, although an error-message occurs, 
the user is added and able to use all logbooks. We also ran elogd in 
Debug-Mode (-v3), but the output didn't give a clue.

By the way using the same configuration on a linux-based installation (Debian 
and RaspiOS) self-registration works smooth. No error-message occurs.

So what could be the problem? Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance. 
icon5.gif   Unable to add entries with command line elog.exe with SSL, posted by Antonio Bulgheroni on Fri Jun 28 17:00:10 2019 

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

Dear all,

I am trying to have the elog timestamp in UTC time instead of local time using the following config file but without success. Do you know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

icon4.gif   URL bug in elogd.cfg, posted by Steve Jones on Mon Aug 16 23:49:13 2004 
Under 2.5.4-2 build1.460, when I edit the demo elogd.cfg the following happens:

- I start with
URL = http://cde-tx32-sds01.subdom.dom.com:8080/

- When I go to edit the global section of the config file, the *display* of
the string is changed to:
URL = <a
href="http://cde-tx32-sds01.subdom.dom.com:8080/">http://cde-tx32-sds01.subdom.dom.com:8080/</a>

- Saving this results in an error in that the rendered url is invalid.

Our current running version is 2.5.4-build1.413 and this behavior is not
evident.  I've looked through the diffs but could not identify the genesis
of this new behavior.

Thanks

Hi

Can I asign a URL to a Radio Button to bring up another program?
