There are other debugers ...

  Whay don't you give them a try?

  example: Install "strace" (if you don't have it) and do something like ...

           strace   gdb /usr/local/sbin/elogd 6162  -debug 2>debug.out


   Also there is "ltrace", etc.

Hi, All.  Ever since upgrading from an old ELOG release on an aging windows machine to the latest version on Scientific Linux 4 (RHEL4), and 
greatly increasing its use, we have seen frequent crashes of elogd.  This has become very disruptive to operations, and any help would be greatly 
appreciated.  We are using Apache (running on the same machine as elogd) to secure ELOG using https as per the Administrator's Guide.

Anecdotally, the crashes seem to frequently happen when a user is attaching an image.  However, most of the time attachments succeed without 
incident.

I attempted to obtain a stack trace by attaching gdb to the process, but elogd died during the night.  It was urgently needed, so I needed to kill 
the elogd process (ptrace() kept it hanging around) and therefore could not obtain a stack trace.  For what it's worth, here is the output we do see in 
gdb:

I plan on letting elogd create a core dump, but so far I haven't managed to change its cwd to a directory elog can write to.

Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin 

  for (var i=0 ; i<document.form1.y0.value.length ; i++)
    if ((document.form1.y0.value.charAt(i) < "0" ||
         document.form1.y0.value.charAt(i) > "9")) { break }

This cause in following error 
Fehler: document.form1.y0 is undefined
Quelldatei: http://elog1.bkitech.de/Test-Maengelbericht/?cmd=Neu
Zeile: 16 
After that error none js will be executed.
After remarking the Type line, all work well.

I tried with following minimal configuration file:

Attributes = D, Author, Subject
Type D = Date
Preset D = $Date

and it worked fine. The form contains a field:

Year: <input type="text" size=5 maxlength=5 name="y0">

which contains the name "y0" and therefore produced no error. Can you try with that configuration and see which difference to your configuration causes the error to appear?

I tried your configuration and got the attribute incrementing correctly:

so I'm a bit at a loss, too. Maybe your browser caches the old page, so try a "Reload" on your browser or clear your cache. Maybe your logbook contains some weird entries which make the incementing break. Try this configuration with an empty logbook. Certainly the configuration options are correct.

Hello all,

I appear to be doing something wrong or not..
In my configuration I use an incrementation of a certain attribute (Melding)
For some weird reason it won't increment in this place, while it does in another place...

Below is my configuration (at least the part that gives me headaches..)

[Onderhoud Diversen]
Theme = default

Attributes = Melding, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Status, Onderwerp
Options Type = Preventief, Regulier, Nav Storing, Overig
Options Categorie = SensorProbes, Overig
Options Status = Wachtend, Gepland, In behandeling, Update, Afgerond
Type Planning = date
Extendable Options = Categorie, Status
Required Attributes = Auteur, Type, Unit-Lokatie, Status
Page Title = ELOG - $onderwerp
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type, Status
Preset Melding= DIVOH: %d%m%y-####
Subst on edit Auteur = $long_name
List Display = ID, Melding, Datum, Status, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Onderwerp
Summary lines = 0
Display Email recipients = 0
Email All = aapie@sukkeltje.com
Use Email Subject = $Melding, $Onderwerp - $Status
Style Status In behandeling = background-color:red
Style Status Update = background-color:orange
Style Status Afgerond = background-color:lime
Login user = person1, person2

The goal of this part of the configuration is a way to notify and log maintenance on not specified equipment.
I expect a message-tag with: DIVOH: 280109-0001, where 280109 stands for 28th of January, 2009, the 0001 is the message number of that day.
Now when I enter something in it, submit the message it will display DIV-OH: 280109-0001 as I expect, but...
When I start with a new entry I would expect DIVOH: 280109-0002 as it is the second message.. Well, simply put.. I don't get DIVOH: 280109-0002 but instead I get DIVOH: 280109-0001 again.Below the part that does work correctly:

The following part of my configuration does work..

[Onderhoud Windows]
Theme = default

Attributes = Melding, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Status, Onderwerp
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Categorie = Algemeen, Hardware, Software, Netwerk, Telefonie, Overig
Options Status = Wachtend, Gepland, In behandeling, Update, Opgelost
Type Planning = date
Extendable Options = Categorie, Status
Required Attributes = Auteur, Type, Status
Page Title = ELOG - $onderwerp
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type, Status
Preset Melding= WSOH: %d%m%y-####
Subst on edit Auteur = $long_name

Summary lines = 0
Style Status In behandeling = background-color:red
Style Status Update = background-color:orange
Style Status Afgerond = background-color:lime

When I copy this one, adjust it to be the same as the first one, but then without the extra things it doesn't work, and with them, well.. it still won't.. :(
I am at a loss here where the mistake is, can someone shed some light on this? I would appreciate that very much.

Best regards,

Guido

 

Thanks for the info, it saves me some time know this on beforehand.

You're right about the Windows binary, it's a lower SVN revision (2140).

 Thanks very much, Stefan.

I did not know "Last x" was the appropriate menu option.
