icon1.gif   Limit number of characters for "login user" parameter string ?, posted by Christine Quicot on Tue Jan 10 09:59:30 2017 

Hello all,

I use ELOG for about 30 users, and I've listed their email adresses in the "login user" parameter, using the LDAP authentication.
As I had problems with the users from the end of the list (they couldn't log in the logbooks) I guessed that there is a max length for the string "login user" (or other parameter?). it seems to be a 1000 character limit.
How can I parameter this limit to another value? Is this value used for other parameters?

Thanks for your answer.

icon1.gif   Empty mxml directory in commit a6e5962, posted by Christine Quicot on Tue Jan 31 17:49:16 2017 

Hello,

I wonder if it's normal that in the sources files, new created mxml directory is empty.

In commit # a6e5962 4 files are deleted but not moved:

- src/mxml.c
- src/mxml.h
- src/strlcpy.c
- src/strlcpy.h 

 

Thank you

 

icon5.gif   Is it possible change content of the notifying mail content (attachements...) ?, posted by Christine Quicot on Tue Feb 7 18:45:08 2017 

Hello all,

I would like to configure the email that is sent to notify users, when an entry is submitted:

- Is it possible to attach to the mail the files attached to the entry ?

- Is it possible to configure a string (with entry keywords) that will appear in the mail content instead of the default content ?

 

Thank you!

Christine

Hello,

I'm sorry but that's a part of the manual I've read many times, and I'm not interested in changing the subject of the email, but only body and attachements.

I guess that if I didn't find these answers in the manual, it's because the answer for both questions is no ?

 

Thank you

Please look in the manual under "Email Format" and "Use Email Subject".

icon5.gif   Creating logbook by copying an existing one crashes elog, posted by Chris Howe on Thu Jul 28 15:33:21 2005 
Hi,

Trying to create a new logbook from an existing one causes elog to crash.

output from DrMingw:
elogd.exe caused an Access Violation at location 00448c6e in module elogd.exe
Writing to location 6e206c65.

Registers:
eax=00240798 ebx=00000020 ecx=6e206c61 edx=00250088 esi=00000000 edi=69726500
eip=00448c6e esp=01c1a1d0 ebp=01c1a1f0 iopl=0 nv up ei ng nz ac po cy
cs=001b ss=0023 ds=0023 es=0023 fs=0038 gs=0000 efl=00000297

Call stack:
00448C6E elogd.exe:00448C6E
00445F17 elogd.exe:00445F17

as the service restarts elog the browser then displays:

"Cannot open file elog.pwd: No such file or directory
Please use your browser's back button to go back"

If you try and create a new logbook from scratch (i.e. not a copy) then the browser displays:

"Cannot open file elog.pwd: No such file or directory
Please use your browser's back button to go back"

In both cases the new logbook is created.

any ideas?

icon5.gif   Elog/ImageMagick under windows 11, posted by Aled Isaac on Thu Jul 18 11:38:01 2024 

I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me in getting the ImageMagick/figure scaling working on an elog running under windows 11 (Microsoft Windows Version 22H2 (OS Build 22621.3880)).   I've followed the installation instructions and checked that $PATH contains the directory for both ImageMagick and GSS.  In a 'command prompt' window, when I execute "identify -version" from any directory I get the response:

 

Version: ImageMagick 7.1.1-35 Q16-HDRI x64 d775d2a:20240714 https://imagemagick.org
Copyright: (C) 1999 ImageMagick Studio LLC
License: https://imagemagick.org/script/license.php

Compiler: Visual Studio 2022 (194033811)

 

which I believe is correct.  I've looked through the source-code for the elog and I believe that upon initialisation elogd is looking for a response containing "ImageMagick" somewhere in the response [image_magick_exist = (strstr(str, "ImageMagick") != NULL);] so I'm not sure I understand why this isn't being satisfied.  When I run elogd I get the statement "ImageMagick NOT detected. Image scaling will not work.".

I have the feeling that this is some security restriction in windows 11, so was wondering if anyone had seen this problem before and knew of a solution.

Many Thanks

I've managed to get it working and the problem wasn't what I thought it was.  It turns out that ImageMagick v7 doesn't have a "convert.exe" program in the windows version due to some conflict with a disk conversion utility.  The "convert.exe" has been replaced with a "magick.exe" and so I made a CONVERT.BAT script within the elog folder with content "magick %*".  This workaround appears to have solved the problem.

icon5.gif   Storing Elog database files in version control (CVS/SVN/GIT)?, posted by Brett Viren on Mon Mar 23 19:30:09 2009 
Hi,

Is it possible to store ELOG back-end database files in version control so as to synchronize multiple ELOG
instances?

Has anyone tried it? Any obvious show stoppers to such an approach?

Cheers,
-Brett.
