After installing ELOG on a new Windows 8 machine, I found everything working fine... until I went to make a new entry.   New entries work... but the FCKEditor toolbars do not show up.  I tried a variety of things (start as a service, start not as a service, run as administrator), but nothing made the toolbar appear that I coumd find.  The ELCode editor toolbar appears, but the nifty FCKEditor toobar never appears.  I could not figure out how to debug FCKEditor.  Any ideas?

Thank you.. that version works fine for me.

In the past couple of days, I seem to have developed a problem with making entries into elog's displayed with Chrome (the latest, 31.0.1650.63) on 
Mac OS (10.9.1, the latest).  The problem occurs with attempting to edit or enter HTML encoded pages with fckedit; although pages render correctly 
in list mode, if you try to edit or enter an entry, the page is blank, the cursor is missing, you can't see text or type new text.  I ran elogd -v by hand, 
and there were no obvious problems, and I looked at the developer consoles in Chrome, and the only place I see any hint of what the problem might 
be is the Javascript console which says this:

event.returnValue is deprecated. Please use the standard event.preventDefault() instead.
Uncaught SecurityError: Blocked a frame with origin "http://localhost:8080" from accessing a frame with origin "chrome-
extension://pioclpoplcdbaefihamjohnefbikjilc".  The frame requesting access has a protocol of "http", the frame being accessed has a protocol of 
"chrome-extension". Protocols must match.

It works ok in Safari, but it would be nice to use Chrome, and it was working ok until recently.  I don't think the problem occurred when I updated to 
Mac OS 10.9.1, but I don't keep careful track of the Chrome version.  It's not critical, but I pretty much exhausted what I knew how to debug.  I have 
close to the latest elog (2.9.2-2455), although I see the same phenomenon on this elog (.2.9.2-2475) and I think it's related to this thread:

I tried the prescription in the October 22 entry, but it didn't seem to help, although I wasn't sure I had really tested it with compressed javascript and 
cache and what have you.

Later on, I tried the prescription pointed to in that thread that says in scripts/fckeditor/editor/js/fckeditorcode_gecko.js to replace

FCKTools.FixDocumentParentWindow = function(A){ if (A.document) A.document.parentWindow=A; for (var i=0;i<A.frames.length;i++) FCKTools.FixDocumentParentWindow(A.frames[i]);};

with: 

FCKTools.FixDocumentParentWindow = function(A){try{ if (A.document) A.document.parentWindow=A;} catch(e){};for (var i=0;i<A.frames.length;i++) FCKTools.FixDocumentParentWindow(A.frames[i]);};

and after I got all my brackets straight, my pages were visible.  I'm still not sure when this turned up, since I use my elog every day (hour) and so I'd hardly miss it when I upgraded various things, although I don't watch Chrome updating itself that closely.

Have a good holiday!

I think with the latest Imagemagick from brew (6.9.4-7) that pdf thumnails no longer get made; the attachment is there but the message "Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation" apears instead of the thumbnails.  I couldn't make out from elogd -v 3 why they failed, but I couldn't make out the exact convert command that was failing.  This is on MacOS 10.11.5 and I think the updated version ofImagemagick was the last thing that changed before it failed.
