Elog v2.6.2-1722 appears to have broken "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" option on Windows XP box, posted by Gregory M. Caughey on Wed Oct 11 11:37:03 2006

Hi Stefan!
Been running Elog-2.6.2-1714 successfully for a while and yesterday decided to download and experiment with the latest Elog-2.6.2-1722 build. I want to report a possible bug involving the "Suppress default" option when running build 2.6.2-1722 on a Windows XP laptop. I installed 2.6.2-1722 into a development folder and copied my current production 'elogd.cfg' file and other custom files to the development folder. Test postings produced the following results:
1.) The "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" option causes the [] Suppress Email notification to display or not display as expected.
2.) However, email notifications will be sent under all circumstances regardless of which parameter selected.
3.) Downgrading to Elog-2.6.2-1714 produces the expected behavior.
I am running Windows XP with all current upgrades and security patches and Internet Explorer 7 - version: 7.0.5700.6
Regards, Greg |

Thanks for reporting that problem. I just implemented Suppress email on edit and this could have had some side effect. I tried however to reproduce your problem and was not able to. Trying the "minimal" configuration file, the email notifications were suppressed if the check box was checked, or if Suppress default = 3. Can you check if it works with a minimal config file, and if yes, what option in your "full" config file causes this effect? |
OK, you're absolutely correct. When I run Elog-2.6.2-1722 with a minimal 'elogd.cfg' the "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" flag does appear to behave as expected. Taking your advice I went through my local 'elogd.cfg' evaluating items to see where the problem starts and I found a problem. In my local config file I use conditional attributes to modify the "category" and "type" fields (in the posting form) and here is what I'm finding wrong. For this example I have set "Suppress default = 3" and the following actions take place:
1.) Select "New" to begin a post and the form displays correctly with NO "[] Suppress Email notification" checkbox showing.
2.) When selecting "Category" an choosing an appropriate menu item the form is then redrawn and now there is a problem, the "[] Suppress Email notification" checkbox is displaying. The checkbox does work correctly but the behavior I'm expecting is for no checkbox to display during the composition of this posting. Am I misunderstanding the behavior of the "Suppress default = 3" flag?
3.) Each of the other flag parameters appear to work as expected as used in the above example.
I have attached screenshots that demonstrate this behavior as well as a snippet of the 'elogd.cfg' file.
Hope this helps a little...
Thanks, Greg |

Yepp it helped. I could reproduce your problem and fix it. Can you try elog262-4.exe (Revision 1729)? |
Hi Stefan!
Just installed elog-2.6.2-1729 and it's working perfectly. I haven't had enough time to test it thoroughly yet but will report any problems I might find. As always thanks for your excellent work, I appreciate it.

Hi
I want to display an image on the title page and have put the following code into the elogd.cfg:
Welcome Title = <img src="pictures/ln2.jpg"><p><font size = 5 color=white>Welcome to My Project Log</font>
I have put the picture "ln2.jpg" in a pictures folder I have created in the root ELOG directory however the image does not show up. Any assistance would be great :)
Thanks in advance
Adam

Hi Adam,
You might double check your file names vs. HTML tags. It appears in your example above that your HTML tag is requesting a file named: "1n2.jpg" and your image file name is "In2.jpg". Please note that in the first case the file name starts with (1) a numeral one and in the second case the file name start with a capital (I) a capital I.

Login issue , posted by Heinzmann on Thu Mar 5 23:20:13 2009

Hello,
I have installed the latest elog version from your web site.
My Admin user and my Login user are set in the elog.cfg to use the Self register process within the first login.
The issue is that I get only one time access to my log on the server (XP) and that is direct after the Selfregister process.
If I log out and login to test my admin and user account I will not get access to my server anymore.
My login page stays without any error message.
1 Notebook XP Client internet explorer http://host ip:8080/demo------> 2nd Notebook XP Server
I have the deleted the cookies after each try.
I have retested later the accounts several times (login/logout) successful with the internet explorer http://host ip:8080/ on the server itself.
Please could you help me to identify the issue?

Hi,
I have found the issue, when I mark at the login page:
Keep me logged in on this computer
for the next 41 days or until I log out
I'm not able to login. Only when it is not marked I'm able to login.
How can I diable/hide the part (Keep me logged in on this computer
for the next 41 days or until I log out) from my login page?
