Another Question:  Could ELOG be configured to send notifications as a Blind 
Copy?  Just wondering if that would take care of the problem?

I just noticed that the notifications I receive from your ELOG system, 
doesn't show anyone in the "TO:" section but myself.  Or is ELOG configured 
to only send myself a message?

This is on purpose. I have many people registered for the Forum. So when a 
notification is sent, it is not a good idea if everybody sees everybody 
else's mail addresses. Therefor I have 

Omit Email to = 1

in the config file. This way the "To:" field is omitted to "hide" the mail 
recipients from each other. Your mail client realizes that and fills in your 
own address automatically, that's why you only see yourself. Maybe you try 
that option, might help with your previous problem as well.

Actually the thumbnail files are only created if they are not there. This is done in the function crate_thumbnail():

   i = get_thumb_name(file_name, str, sizeof(str), 0);

   if (i)

      return i;

So if these files are recreated always, something must be wrong there. Or you sysadmin runs a cron job which deletes them every evening 

The problem is you have some weird characters in your file name R2BLM15 ? ? ? ? ? .PNG which confuses the interpreter. There should not be any special character or blanks in attached images.

That make sense. Is there a way to recovery when hung except restart elogd? On the other hand, whether could  prompt for reloading attachment when interpreter detect error but not hang?

Hi all,

I've found a bug in elog. It's all right that uploading an image which file name with special characters. I think it must have something to do with the code like"url_encode(file_enc, sizeof(file_enc));  /* for file names with special characters like "+" */". If I clicked the "Make small/Make larger/Original size/Rotate left/Rotate right" button, the elog server will hang. How it can be fixed? The attached image shows the debug info.

With this information I cannot diagnose the problem. I would recommend you to run the elogd on the mirror server in interactive mode with the "-v" flag, so you see all net traffic. Maybe this sheds some light on the problem.
