icon6.gif   elog hanged when uploading photo failed, posted by Xuan Wu on Wed Feb 27 02:34:46 2019 log.png
Hi all,

  We came across a problem recently when clicking "Upload" button, then elog hanged and never being accessed. I have checked the
elog logs and find that it seems that elog didn't get the path of the picture for some reason. So is it a bug or our operation isn't correct?
    icon2.gif   Re: elog hanged when uploading photo failed, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Mar 5 20:48:51 2019 
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 "+" */".

icon5.gif   Cannot connect to server of Gmail SMTP, posted by Kevin Wang on Sun Oct 6 20:25:27 2019 
Hi all,

When I tried to set SMTP server of Gmail in the global configuration file, I get the message "Error sending Email via <i>"smtp.gmail.com"</i>:
Cannot connect to server" after I tried to receive the Email notification. Is there anyone gives help to solve this issue?
    icon2.gif   Re: Cannot connect to server of Gmail SMTP, posted by Stefan Ritt on Mon Oct 7 08:54:32 2019 
Gmail uses a type of SMTP authentication which is currently not supported by elog. It's however on the todo list.

Hi Stefan,

 

Thank you very much for your reply. So which SMTP type can I use now? Is outlook OK?
          icon2.gif   Re: Cannot connect to server of Gmail SMTP, posted by John on Tue Oct 8 06:47:27 2019 
This is a local issue  on your network, if you have a mail server setup. SMTP is not handled directly by Elog and neither is any other mail protocal.
Elog just sends the requested email to your server for processing to the recipients afaict. And whatever server (or service) you use to handle email sending
needs to be able to accept them from your mail server. So after verifying which ones  you want to use; (like OutLook, or gmail, or whatever), then

Hi everyone.

We are new in ELOG. We have installed it and created new logbooks following the "demo" one. We have configured our SMTP host, with
email and pass, but we obtain this error when submit

If you post the [global] part of your configuration, it would help a little bit to understand the problem.

Cheers, Andreas

Elog supports only a limited set of authentications for SMTP. Both GMail and probably also your server requires more advanced authentication schemes,
which are not suppoerted by elog. Sorry.

Sorry,

Could you please tell us a MAIL SMTP SERVER we can use to try?

Many thanks
                   icon2.gif   Re: Cannot submit due to authentification errors, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed Aug 28 17:59:17 2019 
Sorry, but I would think that this is a question for the IT department of your institute, not for the ELOG forum.

Since you have an institute email address (infoval@aemet.es NOT xxx@gmail.com), you certainly have your own mail server, or am I wrong?

Cheers, Andreas
icon5.gif   Drag and drop does not work in 3.1.3?, posted by Lech on Tue Aug 20 09:47:06 2019 
Hello,

I can paste images into text (which resulted in the text_size too long error message), however, I can't drop them on my elog. However, I
can do it on the demo version. Was the drag and drop into text already supported in version 3.1.3 and I am just missing some configuration option, or do
    icon2.gif   Re: Drag and drop does not work in 3.1.3?, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Aug 20 10:34:37 2019 
The Drag & Drop was implemented already in 3.0.0 (see https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/ChangeLog).
So no idea why it's not working for you.

Can I find the config of the demo elog somewhere, so I could try it locally?

Thank you. Locally doesn't work for some reason... I'll try to investigate.

Btw. do you plan to properly accept pasting of images? Pasting a screenshot saves a lot of time when making logs.

> Btw. do you plan to properly accept pasting of images?

I would claim it is already properly supported. If you hit a size limit you can configure your ELOG to adjust the limit (Max content
length).
                   icon2.gif   Re: Drag and drop does not work in 3.1.3?, posted by Lech on Wed Aug 21 02:21:57 2019 
From what I've read in a past post, it is hitting the max content length because pasting, unlike dropping, is not properly supported and it is possible
that images get converted to text in some way and occupy a lot of "content length". So what I mean is that the pasted image is handled the same
way as the dropped image.
                      icon2.gif   Re: Drag and drop does not work in 3.1.3?, posted by Lech on Wed Aug 21 07:00:17 2019 
I've discovered, that if I switch my local elog to SSL, dropping of images starts to work (as expected). However... pasting stops. If I select "paste"
popup, I got the message about my browser security settings not allowing to paste, and that I can paste in the popup window. In Firefox I can actually
paste in the popup window (image appears there), but after clicking OK nothing appears in the editing window. In Chrome and Opera nothing appears even
