A statement like "core dumped" does not help much. Same with valgrind memory leaks. I need a full strack trace with all parameters when the segment violation occurs. The easiest is when you run elogd vom inside gdb, and once you get the signal, do a "where" to see th full stack trace.

As you can see from this forum, there is absolutely no crash when you upload any file, so it must have to do with your config file or anything whcih is special in yoru environment. We have to find what this is so that I can reproduce it here.

Looks like duplicate report to https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/69826

I am receiving a segfault whenever I attempt to upload a file.   Please see attached .txt for valgrind output.   This occurs in version elog-3.1.5-1.   I reverted back to version elog-3.1.4-3 and the segfault does not occur.

Segfault occurs in Elog version: elog-3.1.5-1

System:

Virtualization: kvm
Operating System: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
Kernel: Linux 6.8.0-49-generic
Architecture: x86-64
Hardware Vendor: QEMU
Hardware Model: Standard PC _Q35 + ICH9, 2009_
Firmware Version: 1.15.0-1
Firmware Date: Tue 2014-04-01
Firmware Age: 10y 8month 1w 5d
 

Valgrind command:   valgrind -v --leak-check=full --track-origins=yes ./elogd  -s /usr/local/elog -c /var/www/elog/he6/elogd.cfg -f /var/run/elog/he6.pid

Steps to reproduce:

1. Login elog

2. Create new logbook entry

3. Attachement 1:  Select Browse

4.  Select any file.

5.  Select Upload

> People are keeping me asking for a Windows installer

My Windows-11 laptop may free up in January and I could look at builds of elog and midas, but I know nothing about making Windows installers...

K.O.

People are keeping me asking for a Windows installer. Is this now properly working, also under Windows 11? If you send me the executable, I could upload it to the distribution.

Do people have to install cygwin before they can use it, or will the executable runn just by itself? If I understand correctly, the MinGW package would not require a runtime library, right?

Best,
Stefan

What Stefan meant to say is that Elog does not implement sending email using encrypted SMTP over TLS.

In theory it could be implemented, but if you try to use it, you may find that most
destinations will reject you unless you have configured correct SPF records.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Policy_Framework

Even if you do everything right, joints like gmail may still reject you because
their AI decides you are a spammer, or just because they do not like you, and good
luck making them change their mind.

At TRIUMF, we configure elog to use unencrypted and unauthenticated SMTP
to smtp.triumf.ca, which has special rules to accept our email (no questions asked),
and our Microsoft email instance is configured to accept and forward email from
smpt.triumf.ca. Everything is done right, but we still see Fermilab's Microsoft
rejecting TRIUMF's Microsoft email once in a while.
