  66567   Thu Oct 29 20:48:41 2009 Disagree David PilgramDavid.Pilgram@epost.org.ukBug reportLinux2.7.7-2252elog crashes with a long thread.
Hi Stefan,

I have a thread of 70 entries.  I added another entry, which was saved, but elog crashed.
It would restart, but crash every time I then tried to access that 71 entry thread.

By editing the yymmdda.log files to remove the latest entry, all was well again.
Add a test new entry (much smaller) also crashed elog as before.

If it is any help, this is the error message I caught on a console:

src/elogd.c:703: xrealloc: Assertion `*((unsigned int *) (temp + old_size)) == 0xdeadc0de' failed.
./log: line 1:  3123 Aborted    

Now I have got around this, by ending that thread with reference to a new one to continue, but is this to be
expected?  

If this is something (like memory allocation) that would have been in hiding from the start, I cannot imagine
that it is likely to be hit often enough to actually "bug fix" - it might, in any case, cause problems elsewhere.

Hi elog experts =)

 

Anyone know if it's possible to have access control per group-level?

For instance:

Group A = B,C   

Group B = LogA   

Group C = LogB, LogC      

Group C: Read password = abc

 

?

Hi Stefan,

After 21.Oct, all the emails sent out by this discussion form now are addressed to

ELOG@ananke.jtan.com
the name of the server my mails are sent to.

Before that the emails were addressed to 

ELOG@emix.psi.ch

Obviouisly my real email address is there, in the headers (as it would appear for a BCC)

The only consequence for me was these emails turned up in the wrong mailbox, but perhaps it has wider implications?

Indeed on Oct. 21st the SMPT server sending out emails from this forum has been changed. I checked my own mails coming 
from the forum, but I could not find any hint of what you describe above. The "From:" header contains "noreply@psi.ch" 
and the "To:" header is my email address. The "Received:" header contains our SMTP server, but you should not that field 
for filtering your email.

I have "Summary lines = 1" in the config file. The first line visualized in the summary list, in the Text column, is truncated. I'm using the default style.

Which is the way to set the number of character displayed?

I added a new parameter

Summary line length = x

for you. This is included in SVN revision 2262 (if you can compile it yourself) and will be contained in the next release.

I have already tested your patch backporting the change to 2.7.7.1. It works like a charm.

Thank you very much!
