 | Andreas Luedeke | andreas.luedeke@psi.ch | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.0 | elogd lost entry database without restart during file system trouble | I'm running ELOG since several years with rather heavy usage.
Last week I've upgrades from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0 and this week I had twice the same problem:
elogd lost the index for old entries and showed empty logbooks, without having restarted.
The logbooks appeared to be empty; new entries started with index "1".
The first time the origin of the problem were network troubles;
the second time it had been caused by a severe problem of our AFS file system service.
I never experienced this consequence for ELOG in the past when we had AFS problems.
Since the logbooks are used for the operation log of a user facility they continued to do new entries.
The next day I had to re-number the new entries and restart elogd and everything was fine.
I could understand if elogd crashes when the filesystem of the logbook goes away.
And when it restarts with an (temporarily) empty filesystem, that would explain what happened.
But it did not restart and the log file does not contain any information about any problem,
just that suddenly all new entries in each logbook started with ID "1" again.
Stefan, any idea?
Anyone else ever experienced that with the new ELOG version (or older ones)? |

Had a bit of an effort with the git repository, though, kept getting 403 errors when tried the
git clone https://bitbucket.org/ritt/elog as per the "download" page.
error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://bitbucket.org/ritt/elog/info/refs

This problem has been fixed in Version 3.1.0-2. Please upgrade.

Having installed v3.1.0 on a test logbook, I find that I can browse and select a file, but when I click on the "Upload" button, I get a pop-up message from the browser asking me:
"This page is asking you to confirm that you want to leave - data you have entered may not be saved."
The stay on page does nothing, the leave page option does what one expects from elog - that is the attachment thumbnail is generated etc.
I guess this is something to do with the drag and drop feature, but wondered if others have this issue or whether it may just be some mystery setting of the browser (firefox).

It was str variable in function process_http_request in elogd.c.
This should have the size of received buffer.
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!

It seems to be the GET buffer of the elog-Server. The GET statement is cut off after &sub_lb72=1&sub_ eg. 1000 chars.

Hi,
we've got 109 logbooks in Elog. Whenever I set a notify for all logbooks in configuration menu it is limited to 73 entrys. After saving the changes the rest of the entrys are cut off.
I've already searched in the sourcecode if I can find some limitation for that but without success.
When I change the password file by hand, it is working as long as I don't change anything in the configuration that rewrites the file.
Regards,
Oliver

This is an announcement for the ELOG version 3.1.0 being released just now. Among several bug fixes and an improved Drag & Drop interface for attachments, it contains a long awaited "autosave" feature.
Let's assume that you write an ELOG entry, and keep the window open for a longer time (like to write some shift notes over several hours). If your browser crashes or closes for some reason, you will loose your entered text. To avoid that, ELOG starting from version 3.1.0 has an autosave feature. Whenever you enter some text, it is saved in the background as a draft message to the server. If your browser is closed by accident, you always can go back to the logbook, click "New" and ELOG will tell you that there is a draft message and asks you if you want to edit it. When you edit and regularly submit this message, it becomes a "normal" entry and the draft flas is removed. In addition to the background saving, there is now also a "Save" button so you can manually save your text to the draft entry.
I have tested this to some extent, but I might not have seen all browser/OS combinations, so in case there is a problem, please report it here.
Happy Easter,
Stefan
