icon5.gif   Possible to submit entries by email to logbook, posted by thorsten kamps on Fri Oct 17 16:59:42 2008 

Hi, thanks to everyone involved for giving us the elog.

A question:

Is it possible to submit entries to an elog on a remote machine by email?

 

Thanks, Thorsten

icon5.gif   Easy way to submit images from screenshots as new entry, posted by thorsten kamps on Fri Oct 17 17:03:02 2008 

Hi, thanks for everyone involved for giving us the elog.

A question:

Is there an easy way (without intermediate save) to send screenshots (with irfan, snagit or hardcopy) as a new entry to an elog running on a remote machine?

Thanks, thorsten

 I use HoverSnap. This program generates a saved screenshot with one keystroke, so at least it saves you the manual save.

 I tried your configuration and it worked as expected. Maybe you have edited the wrong configuration file, not restarted the server, or have an old page in your browser cache.

icon1.gif   Proxy Error, posted by Glen MacLachlan on Wed Nov 5 20:37:37 2008 

A problem recently developed for our elog...after running without much problem the elog daemon was restarted on an ubuntu server running apache2. Now the server gives 502 Proxy Error messages:

 

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /elog.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

I did a force-reload of apache after making sure the modules are enabled. I also restarted elogd but to no avail. One symptom seems to be that the GET request is empty...that is before it was:

"GET /elog/sample_elog/etcetera HTTP/1.1"

but now it is just

"GET /elog HTTP/1.1"

 

Just started out of the blue...

 

Any ideas?

 I have a similar problem when I restart the elogd daemon. To fix that, I usually also restart Apache.

It would be very cool to be able to select Full from the view menu and then scroll rapidly through all entries looking for that high res photo of a SQUID chip I took two months ago. Presently the photos are all full size so the Full view is slow to load and it takes a lot of scrolling to navigate. Can you implement thumbnails in Full view, and also in the single entry view? Clicking on the thumbnail should, of course, open the full size image.

For now, I'm just using the wysiwyg html entry format and dropping images into the entry, then right-clicking to set a small image size. Clicking on the image gives me a new window with the full size image, which works great.

I hope you don't mind the barrage of suggestions, and thanks again.

 

Thumbnail display in "full view" is implemented already. Let's take this entry: I insert a picture and scale it down via the "smaller" button:

Capture.png

Now if you display this forum in full view, the image is still shown as a thumbnail, which you are able to click in order to get the full resolution display. I don't know what is different in your case, maybe you are using an oder version of ELOG?

 

 Sorry for the delayed reply.

Ideally I'd like a config setting so that by default all graphics are presented at a fixed thumbnail size, so the users don't have to edit the image size every time they add one. Clicking on the thumbnail would open the image full size.

This would by default streamline loading and scanning through pages with many large images, whether in Full view of an entire logbook, or when viewing individual entries.
