Thanks to your stack trace, I found a case where a string might get overwritten, but only if the attachment file name is longer than 256 chars. I fixed the code and made a new RPM:

  https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/r37qx9aka5ytt3j7vn4km/elog-3.1.5-20241213.el8.x86_64.rpm?rlkey=knct99pdltggunrbmyr2hpfe5&st=pkre24aq&dl=0

Alternatively, you can compile from sources. Give it a try.

Thanks Stefen!

I built from source (ELOG V3.1.5-3a5f2f00) and I confirmed as fixed.

Hello, I have installed ELOG in an Ubuntu 22.04 machine and is working great, but I have found a small bug with Author names.

I have the config set like this for the Author attribute:

Preset Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author

For context, my name is Víctor, which includes the accented "í". When creating a new entry and submitting immediately seems to work well. However, if I create a new entry, save it as draft, go back to the list, and then go to the draft entry, the accented "í" has transformed into "Ã". If I repeat the process, it turns into "ÃÂ", and so on. As I have configured the Author to not be editable, the user cannot fix this manually.

I found a way around this bug by setting

Subst Author = $long_name

Which is okay for us, but might not be for everyone.

In fact I saved this entry as a draft and then on another tab tried to edit it and it wouldn't let me edit because the author name now did not match.

  69866   Thu Mar 20 07:34:24 2025 Warning Harry Martinharrymartin772@gmail.comBug reportLinux3.1.53-level conditional not working

Not sure if this is a bug or not; if it is not, kindly reclassify the category.

Following is a small example of what I will dub a 3-level, conditional logbook:

[cond_test]
attributes = region, manufacturer, model

show attributes edit = region
options region = american{1}, japanese{2}, european{3}

{1} options manufacturer = ford, chrysler, gm
{2} options manufacturer = toyota{4}, nissan{5}, mitsubishi{6}
{3} options manufacturer = audi, mercedes, bmw, volvo, fiat
{1,2,3} show attributes edit = region, manufacturer
{4} options model = corolla, prius, miata
{5} options model = sentra, murano
{6} options model = starion, outlander, mirage
{4,5,6} show attributes edit = region, manufacturer, model

This example is hardly complete, but it is sufficient to demonstrate the issue I am running into.  This works until I select from the 2nd level (manufacturer); it won't display the dropdown for the model (I think my show attribute edit is supposed to display that).  Is there a restriction on how many levels of conditional I can have?  If there is, it would be disappointing because I am trying to do something similar to this example.

I hope there is something very simple I can do to correct this, or perhaps a completely different approach that accomplishes the same thing.  I'd like to stick with the multi-level selection process as I have done here.

I am running elog 3.1.5 on Devuan Chimaera (approx. Debian Bullseye, sans systemd) in a Virtualbox VM.
