There was a timeout of 1 sec. in the elogd daemon, which probably is too short for a satellite connection. Unfortunately I have no satellite here 
around to test it, so I "blindly" increased it to 6 seconds in the current SVN version. Please give it a try. You can increase this yourself, its here 
in the code at (Rev. 2291) line 28270:

   FD_ZERO(&readfds);
   FD_SET(_sock, &readfds);
   timeout.tv_sec = 6;            <----
   timeout.tv_usec = 0;
   status = select(FD_SETSIZE, (void *) &readfds, NULL, NULL, (void *) &timeout);

so you can change the 6 to 10 or so. The disadvantage of a large value is the following: Suppose you submit an entry, and in the middle of the 
submission your browser dies (or the user closes it). If you have a timeout of n seconds, the elogd server will wait that time until it closes the 
connection. During this waiting time is cannot respond to other request, so it might look dead. That's why we should not make it too long.

The latest release (2.8.0-2313) does fix this problem.  Our user is now able to modify entries and upload attachments using their satellite connection.

Thank you very much for your time and help.  I am sorry I didn't receive this in time to help test the old SVN version.

Sincerely,

Hi all,

I have set my PC in Time Zone GMT+10:00 but I get GMT time in Entry time/Last edit field.

I have installed in another PC. Which has Time Zone GMT+10:00 but I still get GMT time in Entry time/Last edit field.

Please help. Thank you very much.

Hi All,

I would like to have "Permis de verouillage et d'étiquetage 016685-68AF-0031" when I select it.

I don't found where can I make this change

thank you.

Hi,

is there a documentation for the elconv tool available?

Regards,

Stefan

I'm finally able to reproduce this, and my initial description was incorrect.  If we have "restrict edit = 1", only an "Admin user" can use the "Dop attachments here..." or the "Image" button in the CKEditor.  The old "Choose File," "Upload" buttons, however, works just fine for anyone.

If we have "restrict edit = 0", anyone can upload an attachment using all three interfaces.

This is very reproducible by toggling restrict edit in the global section or for an individual logbook.

Is it possible to use a drop-in replacement for the FCKeditor?
