How can I have my list accept over 500 entries? I tried increasing the elogd.c (max_n_list)file as stated but the compiler gives me errors. Please help

Thanks for the response. I am trying to use it as a file database, to monitor the status of files(whether they have been removed, ammended etc), currently there are 90 files but I expect the size to grow.

  68421   Fri Sep 9 10:31:15 2016 Question christianc_grebing@web.deQuestionWindows3.1.2Windows service settings

Hello,

I've been successfully using elog as a daemon since several years on a Linux machine. For some reasons recently I had to switch to a Windows 7 machine. Here, setting up the elog daemon doesn't work for me:

(a) running the command:

"...\ELOG\elog.exe" -c "...\ELOG\elogd.cfg"

in a windows shell works perfectly fine - logbook is up and running as set up in the cfg-file.

(b) However, starting the windows service manually (start->control panel->system and security->administrative tools->services) that was set up automatically during installation of elog leads to an error message:

"Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"

From the service settings I can verify that the service is running exactly the same command that works in (a).

Could someone please share the windows service settings? Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Christian

Hi Stefan,

you were right - running the service by an authorized user solved the problem.

Thanks a lot.

Cheers, Christian

These problems are usaully related to user rights. Try starting the service under a different (maybe admin) user.

Hi,

Maybe the post is outdated already, but I want to share my experience anyway. I faced the same problem as Daniel: The most recent ImageMagick package was not detected by elogd even though it was installed. I could trace back the problem to the following issue:

Stefan mentioned that the ImageMagick software is detected via the 'convert' command. Since ImageMagick V7, however, the 'convert' command is no longer supported. So, when installing ImageMagick V6 the detection works.

@Stefan: Maybe you could adapt the software detection at some point? Thanks.

Ok. It take me a while, but I reinstalled ImageMagick with marked option "convert". Now, when I start elog, it can see ImageMagick, but screenshots attached to elog entries are still in original sizes. And, I don't see buttons for rotating, resizing images. 

I look into elog cfg options, but only what I found is Thumbnail size which, it looks, don't work.

Don't know what more I should check.

The detection in elogd works by executing the command "convert" and check if the program executes. If you start elogd as a service, the program might see another path variable. Maybe reboot Windows or start the service in the environment of a real user instead of system, where it might miss your modified "path".

Hello.

I finally try add ImageMagick to ELOG.

I downloaded latest version (ImageMagick-7.0.3-Q16) and installed it. Everything looks ok, but when I start Elog service it says that "ImageMagick not detected". 

When I look at the "path" variable i have "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.0.3-Q16;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;[...]".

What else can I check?

Daniel.

 

Ps. My system is Windows 7 Pro.

Update:

While the image scaling via ImageMagick works when running elog manually it doesn't when running elog as a service. The service is hosted in the same user environment that allows image scaling with elog started manually. What else could go wrong?
