| Heiko Scheit | h.scheit@mpi-hd.mpg.de | Bug report | Linux | 2.5.9 | Re: reverse sort option does not work for quick filter | [quote="Stefan Ritt"][quote="Heiko Scheit"]The 'reverse sort' option does not work for quick filter searches.
In the
URL there is always written 'reverse=0'. For normal 'Find' it works OK.[/quote]
I don't understand the problem. If I take the example elogd.cfg from the distribution, it sorts in reverse
order, since the file contains [i]Reverse sort=1[/i]. If I apply a quick filter, the result is still sorted in
reverse order (entry ID from high to low). If I set [i]Reverse sort=0[/i], the even after applying a quick
filter, the entries are sorted with their ID from low to high. Applying a quick filter should not put a
[i]reverse=0[/i] into the URL, so it's strange to me where this comes from. Can you try to reproduce the problem
with the demo elogd.cfg?[/quote]
I played with the quick filter settings somewhat. Here is what I get.
I can't really make sense of it, but maybe you can figure out what
happens. Below, the first line always contains the 'Quick filter'
config setting. The lines below show the URL after searching with the
quick filter for the 1st, 2nd,... attribute listed in the quick filter
setting. (The common base of the URL was removed. Shown is
everything after the last '/'.) Each 'quick search' was started from
the 'List' or 'Back' page, i.e. the URL ended with a '/'.
As you can see below the result depends on the number and on the order
(!) of the attributes. Only a few give the desired result (marked
with # OK). Incidentally the option 'Date, Something' works fine,
which is the combination found in the demo config file. :)
Quick filter = Subject, Date, Login
?Subject=sd&Login= # OK
?last=1&&reverse=0
?Login=sdf&reverse=0
Quick filter = Subject, Login, Date
?Subject=scd&reverse=0
?Login=sdf&reverse=0
?last=1&reverse=0
Quick filter = Date, Subject, Login
?last=1&&reverse=0
?Subject=sd&Login= # OK
?Login=sd&reverse=0
Quick filter = Subject, Date
?Subject=sd # OK
?last=1&reverse=0
Quick filter = Date, Subject
?last=1&Subject= # OK
?Subject=ddsd # OK
Quick filter = Login, Date
?Login=sch # OK
?last=31&reverse=0
Quick filter = Subject, Login
?Subject=dsd&Login= # OK
?Login=sd&reverse=0
Quick filter = Login, Subject
?Login=sd&Subject= # OK
?Subject=sd&reverse=0 |

I cannot reproduce this problem either. The only difference I see is that I use thunderbird as my email client, where I don't have to copy/paste the activation URL into my browser, but just click on it. If maybe the copy/paste operation adds an additional CR/LF or so, that could be a problem. Can you check again? A stack trace of the crashed elogd would help as well. |
The following appended after the base (!) URL results in a segmentation fault
?cmd=Activate&new_user_name=test1&new_full_name=Test1
It works fine, if a specific logbook is given. So
http://my.ho.st/?cmd=Activate&new_user_name=test1&new_full_name=Test1
is not OK, while
http://my.ho.st/myLogBook/?cmd=Activate&new_user_name=test1&new_full_name=Test1
is OK. |

Thanks for that info. It helped me debugging things. The problem is that the "activation" URL does not contain a logbook if there is a global password file. I have never tried that so of course it crashes 
I tried to fix this and committed the changes to CVS. Can you try with that version? |
Not really, unless you have a fixed 2.5.9 version. Version 2.6 has
way too many new features, which I don't want at the moment. Or is
there a config option to get the old behavior?
I also saw that the format of the email notification has changed. As
I have scripts (bash, akw, procmail) that depend on this format I
would need much more time than I currently have to actually test
everything.
Maybe you should consider supporting two branches, say 'stable' (2.5.9
currently) and 'experimental' (2.6 currently)? For 'stable' only
severe bugs and security issues are fixed and in 'experimental' new
features are introduced. What do you say?
For me the risk of upgrading to 2.6 now seems to high, as many people
depend on the logbook. |

By the way, the emails I get from the forum are now all flagged as
spam. SpamAssassin is used and Spam-score header is
X-Spam-Score: 4.875 (****) ADDRESS_IN_SUBJECT, BAYES_00,HTML_40_50,
HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_24, HTML_MESSAGE, MIME_HEADER_CTYPE_ONLY,
MIME_HTML_ONLY, MSGID_FROM_MTA_HEADER, MSGID_FROM_MTA_ID,

Maybe you can see what the problem is. |

This is the BASE64 encoding of the subject. It was discussed here and I implemented it according to RFC2047. |
Well not quite. According to the RFC the encoded word must not be longer than 75 characters! Indeed
shorter subjects are displayed by pine, but not longer ones as they do not follow RFC2047.
Below is the quote from the RFC.
Stefan Ritt wrote: |
All subjects I receive look fine in Outlook and Thunderbird, but not under Pine, which apparently does not implement the RFC correctly.

Actually pine implements it correctly but not elogd 
The relevant text from the RFC
An 'encoded-word' may not be more than 75 characters long, including
'charset', 'encoding', 'encoded-text', and delimiters. If it is
desirable to encode more text than will fit in an 'encoded-word' of
75 characters, multiple 'encoded-word's (separated by CRLF SPACE) may
be used.
