  613   Fri Jul 16 16:53:01 2004 Warning Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comBug reportAll2.5.3Date format problem in "Thread display = "
I have an attributes defined as:

 - Attributes = Author, PlannedDate, FunctionalArea, Operation, Category,
HardwareName, Significance, EmailNotify, LastRevision, Subject

I have PlannedDate defined as:
 - Type PlannedDate = date

When I use the following statement:
 - Thread display = $subject, planned for $PlannedDate. Last revised:
$lastrevision

I get the following in my THREADED logbook view:

"Adding new services, planned for 1090519200. Last revised: Thu Jul 15
18:03:52 2004"

Note that the ATTRIBUTE $PlannedDate prints as a (I am guessing) serialized
date and is not formatted.

I'm not sure if this is manifested elsewhere.
  615   Fri Jul 16 19:06:35 2004 Warning Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comBug reportAll2.5.3BUG?: Preset text = causes replication of text when re-editing a logbook entry.
With the "Preset text = " specified, when re-editing a logbook entry (say to
correct a spelling error) the text of the "Message" is replicated and placed
directly below the original text.

Commenting out the "Preset text = " line prevents this behavior.  this
occurs under both FireFox and IE6.0 clients.
  617   Thu Jul 22 16:50:19 2004 Warning Todd Corsatcorsa@bnl.govBug reportLinux2.5.3Bugs in newer updates w/ Debian install?
I just updated ELOG using the latest elogd.c, and now my Quick Filters seem 
to stop working after the first or second filter attempt. I find that if I 
allow fewer quick filter options it seems to work more consistently. For 
example:

Example 1-
Quick filter = Date
The date filter will work without a problem no matter how many times I use 
it.

Example 2-
Quick filter = Date, Category, Status, Priority
The first filter I use will work, but upon trying a new filter, or just a 
new option in the same filter, all options return to "All Entries" and no 
filter options have any effect on the view.
If I exit the log book, and come back in, it works for the first filter 
attempt, then stops again.

This used to work fine prior to the update. I should also mention that the 
original installation of ELOG was from the Debian package. At that point, 
nothing was where the documentation said it should be (e.g. elogd.cfg was 
called elog.conf and was placed in the /etc/ directory). Everything worked 
fine, so I left it alone. When I recompiled with the newer elogd.c, 
anything that required a path was hosed, so I now have to specify the 
resource directory and the path to the conf file when starting ELOG. I 
don't know why this would affect the Quick Filter, and I'd assume that it 
would just stop working all together. Also, when I recompiled using "gcc -
O -o elogd elogd.c", I received the following warning:

elogd.c:546: warning: conflicting types for built-in function `logf'

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Todd

I did not have the following problem in any snapshot before 23.7.04 .
Actually I do not have a possibility to test the snapshot under an other
system than win xp pro sp 1 (fully pached). 

Using my logbooks as well as the demo logbook works well under older
snapsgots of 2.5.3 as well as long as the "List Display = <attributes>" is
not used!

Using "List Display = <attributes>" produces an ususal output with the text
field content in the first row and a row title of the first 3 letters.

Ex.:
Attributes = Customername, Customeraddres
List Display = Customername, Customeraddres

Output:
¦Cus¦Customeraddres¦

If no record is in the logbook, only the "Cus" is dispalyed! Removing "List
Display = <attributes>" produces a normal output with same logbook!

By the way: Thnak's for the Format in the entry/edit view!!!

I fixed that problem. Please get the snapshot from July 28th 14:16.

Thank you very much Stefan!!!

Also the horizontal alignement with "Format = 1" looks much better   as before
with standard css files! Really great work!

  624   Wed Jul 28 18:25:32 2004 Warning Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comBug reportAll2.5.4?getcfg problem in v1.410: Truncation of long config strings
Just compiled 1.410 and have run into an issue that *may* have been
introduced in 1.393.

Config file directives such as "Welcome title" could be very long strings. 
After compiling 1.410, our "Welcome title" is truncated and, while I haven't
counted the actual chars, I suspect that the truncation happens at 1024
characters.  The procedure 'getcfg' has a declared passed paramater "int
vsize". 

I haven't looked to see if this effects any other large configuration
strings that are managed by "getcfg" but this procedure is perhaps the most
popular one by far in elog.

That should be fixed by the current version. Please update.
