After submitting a new post, if the page is left completely alone,, it will after a few minutes prompt that the page needs to resend information.

This is the same prompt you'd get if you attempt to refresh a page that had session variables passsed to it. Example is attached.

Is there something in my config that could cause this?   This is a fresh install of the latest verison however my elogd.cfg file has been migrated throuh many installs over many versions, so it's very possible this is something following along.

thanks.

Start with the demo example configuration, add one line after the other from your config, and figure out which is the offending statement in your config, then post a minimal configuration here which triggers the problem.

Hi,

Is it possible to pre-populate a field based on the selection of another field. I like to have the Equipment Description field populated when the use makes a selection on the EQ# field.

Thank you,

Jimmy

Use "conditional attributes" as described in the documentation: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#conditional

I think with the latest Imagemagick from brew (6.9.4-7) that pdf thumnails no longer get made; the attachment is there but the message "Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation" apears instead of the thumbnails.  I couldn't make out from elogd -v 3 why they failed, but I couldn't make out the exact convert command that was failing.  This is on MacOS 10.11.5 and I think the updated version ofImagemagick was the last thing that changed before it failed.

Hi John,

I use ImageMagick 6.9.3-10 on my Mac OSX 10.11.5 and it works fine. So apparently the parameters of the ImageMagick program have been changed. If you set the logging level to 2 or higher, you should see the "convert" and "identify" commands in the logging file. If you try these commands manually from the command line, you will see if they succeed or give an error. Please post this error here so I can have a look.

Cheers,
Stefan
