I want to be able to re-edit some entries but I need some way to know the dates entries were re-edited.

Am I just approaching this the wrong way? Should I disable re-editing of entries and use threads to follow changes by posting replies to an entry?

The only problem with that is that if I make a mistake I will have to submit a new entry to fix it.

I get the following error where thumbnails should go: Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation.

I restarted elog and check the log, it does in fact detect ImageMagick and it does have the most recent version. I'm running ubuntu 2.6.24-19-server.  Is there something else I should be checking?

Hi, I would like to preset an attribute type useremail with $user_email but that does not work because $user_email contains mailto: like mailto:user_email@domain
Has anyone an idea how to resolve this problem?

Type Reporter = useremail
Preset Reporter = $user_email

 This was a bug. I fixed it in SVN revision 2118.

 Try the following:

  • Put logfile = elog.log into your elogd.cfg
  • Upload an image to get the error
  • Examine your elog.log file

You should get something like:

23-Jul-2008 15:10:38 [] Server listening on port 8080 ..
23-Jul-2008 15:10:52 [stefan@127.0.0.1] {demo} SHELL "convert "logbooks\demo\080723_151052_Capture.png" "logbooks\demo\080723_151052_Capture.png.png""

In your logfile. Now try the "convert" command manually under the same account elogd is running. Possible reasons for problems are:

  • The "convert" command is not in your path or links to another program. Unfortunately ImageMagick chose a pretty standard name for this program
  • The account under which elogd is running does not have write access to the logbook directory
  • converts wants to call ghostscript for PDF conversion, but it is not installed
  • ...

Please read the FAQ

 

Apart from logging when and who, is it also possible to somehow log WHAT has changed (like $attribute + $old_value was changed by $who at $date)

 No, this is not possible.
