  1739   Wed Mar 1 19:51:05 2006 Warning Alexandre Gauthiersupernaut@underwares.orgBug reportLinux2.6.1-1622Inline images URL not working
Hello

I'm running elog on the blackdog embedded device so I can carry it around while doing my consultant work.

Whenever I try to insert an inline picture by using the
elog: /1
paths with ELCode, the link becomes "logbookname2/1" (Where logbookname is the name of my logbook) and hence, doesn't work. I recall that it worked once. The image did not display, but the URL seemed correct...

Any ideas?

EDIT: i inserted a space in the elog URL above because regardless of the code brackets, it would still get interpreted.

The problem has been fixed in version 2.6.1-3, so just upgrade.

You have to put a "\" in front of everything which should not get converted into a link, so elog:1741/1 does not get interpreted.


Hello Smile

This is what I have done, I checked out the trunk from subversion and built it inside my powerpc QEMU. I just updated the executables and the elcode.js file, and now it works.

Thanks!
  1744   Fri Mar 3 16:48:01 2006 Entry Alexandre Gauthiersupernaut@underwares.orgBug fixMac OSXSVN 1668Makefile patch for OS X 10.4
Hello,

I had trouble compiling elog on Mac OS X 10.4, and so, I hacked the makefile around...

I had to remove the -lutil flag that was passed to ld, for some reason. My guess is that it is not needed anymore with OS X 10.4... Also, the current install section of the makefile crapped out when using /usr/bin/install, I had to use install from gnu fileutils, which I installed through fink, which took precedence in my path... (/sw/bin/install), since bsd fileutil doesn't like the -D option.

For some reason, the paths to "install" in the makefile are either defined by the $(INSTALL) variable, or called directly. This seems not to be very consistent... In any case, I just changed it to use "install", no matter where it was in my path.

I'm currently hacking up something more elegant soon enough...

Also, I noticed that the binary produced was inconsistent and sluggish with the default wild CFLAGs, so I brought them back to something a bit more casual for Darwin. I used -Os because that's what Apple uses to build most OS X software. I also use -Os in my blackdog builds (which is an embedded PowerPC device) since space and memory *does* matters.

Well, here's the patch. I doubt it will be useful to anyone except for those who have gnu fileutils installed through fink, in their paths, and find themselves unable to build elog on OS X.

Hi, 
I also have this problem, when a non admin user logs in he does not have access to
the config file but if he logs out he can then access the config file as non logged
user.
I also tried to upgrade to version 2.5.3 but running under this version does not ask
for passwords so I reverted to 2.5.2.

Besides these few details, your software is great !

Thank you,

Alexandre

Dear Stefan,
I eventually tried the latest version from the CVS. 
And it is odd because like when I tried version 2.5.3, it is like it ignores
the passwd file. I guess I must have a problem in my cfg file.
So I can't really test if 2.5.3 or 2.5.4 have the same problem.

Right now I'm still using 2.5.2 which works fine, if i log out and click on
the logbook tab. I get the page which ask for the username and password. The
thing is I don't get returned to the username/password when I hit log out. I
arrive in the state you can see in the unlogged.jpg.
From here if can go into all the logbooks as long as I don't hit the
logbooks tab and worse I can access to all the config files.

Is there something really badly configured in my config file ? I guess it is
not supposed to work that way.

Thank you,

Alexandre

The elogd.cfg is attached in the previous message as attachement 3. Sorry it is a
little bit buried between pictures.
The reason I put the picture of the global elogd.cfg is to show that the not logged
user has access to elogd.cfg which is some kind of trouble...

Hi I tried to remove the cookies and it still did not ask for password under 2.5.4.
Has the password file format changed between 2.5.2 and 2.5.3 ?

Thank you, I misunderstood how the "Guest menu commands" worked I thought I had to specify
a limited set of commands to actually limit guest users.

Thanks again for your wonderful work on this program too.
