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? |

Well, the normal list view was not there from the beginning. Originally you always saw the last entry, and had to click on "Find", do a search and then see the listing. Only later this became the default view. So "Find Menu text" was there from the beginning, and some people used it. If I change it now to "List Menu text", guess how many people would complain that their config file doen not work anymore.
Well, maybe I should allow both options "Find menu text" and "List menu text", change it in the documentation, and in a year from now remove the "Find menu text". |

It's a great way to solve the misunderstanding IMHO, tnx  |

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,
NO_REAL_NAME, SPF_FAIL, SPF_HELO_PASS, TO_MALFORMED
Maybe you can see what the problem is. |

[BUG] show only new entries, posted by Emiliano Gabrielli on Wed Jun 22 11:04:41 2005
|
the new link "show only new entries" is very useful but seems to still have some problems:
- I can't find any simple way to return to the "every entries" display .. may be the link has to be switched to a checkbox to be actived or not
- I found a way (at least)... following the "config" link, doing nothing and coming back restores the view .. this is a feature now, but when a less tricky mechanism will be implemented will become a bug
another entry for my wishlist:
writeing the above code I noticed that the elcode buttons are lacking of a "" shortcut .. it will be very usefull 
PS:
Writeing the wish above I noticed that the [ *] is interpreted as an item also otside the LIST tag .. so .. or the LIST tag is optional, or the [ *] should not be interpreted outside of it ... it's another bug ? P |
