 Hi there :)

I'm having a problem with the e-mail notification on my installation of elog. I'm testing the attachment upload with images, and it seems to work seamlessly. However upon posting, the e-mail notification sends a null attachment, instead of the image I would expect.

Is there an error log I can check for this? I started the elog process without the daemon option, but I can't see any error coming up.

Cheers,
 

This problem has been fixed in the current version. Please get it from bitbucket.org.

Please read the documentation in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html und the option "Use Lock". If you don't need locking, just turn it off.

 I have a possible explanation for this problem, but it is just guess work. If I'm right, then just download the latest ELOG version and it will work properly again.

  • You've downloaded an elog version from git, which still contained the line 12 in elogd.c: char svn_revision[] = "$Id$";
  • Since you did checkout from git, the $Id$ was not substituted.  
  • ELOG trys to extract the version by this:      rsprintf
              ("<center><a class=\"bottomlink\" title=\"%s\" href=\"https://midas.psi.ch/elog/\">ELOG V%s-%d</a></center>",
               loc("Goto ELOG home page"), VERSION, atoi(svn_revision + 13));
  • svn_revision + 13 is pointing into the void. Still I would have expected that you get a number as a result.

My advice: download again and retry.

 I have downloaded a latest version.  It has displayed the new version as ELOG V2.9.2-bac715d where seems defined in GIT_REVISION as I guess.  Then I set Bottom Text Login to a html file, it still shows those unwanted characters.

Okay, why don't you just remove the unwanted characters from the html file? Because the attached file contains exactly those characters.

Yes, unwanted characters are in my file.  In fact, they are not visible under some editor.  So, I have found a reference from this site http://www.ventrino.com/blog/60/2008/07/three-little-characters-i%C2%BB%C2%BF-designed-to-make-your-life-hell/ about how to remove them.  Basically, file's properties has to set to either ASCII or Encode as UTF-8 without BOM.  Thanks.
