  68173   Fri Oct 30 18:20:22 2015 Entry Kester Habermannkester.habermann@gmail.comBug reportAll3.1.1restrict edit time and autosave

Hello,

When using restrict edit time together with autosave, there is the following problem: The counter for restrict edit time seems to start after the autosave. If the time is up, it is no longer possible to submit the report.
It is also not possble to edit old drafts if restrict edit has elapsed since the creation of the save.
Autosave is definitively a nice new feature. However, I think it would be better if the counter for restrict edit time only started after the "submit" of the report and allowed edits to drafts no matter how old they are. As it is one needs to either set a really high value for restrict edit time or turn off autosave.
The issue seems to be related to: https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68103

Regards

Kester

I suspect that this might be a Debian packaging issue; however no one replied to my help request on the Debian forums so I try posting the question also here. I insatlled Elog on my Debian Jessie machine, I can open it with a browser but when entering a new post just a simple plain text editing box is shown instead of the WYSIWYG editor, and no drag and drop area for attachments is shown. When I start the elog service with "systemctl start elog" I get this suspect message in the journal: "FCKedit NOT detected". Indeed, I see that the elog installation creates a symlink which I guess is supposed to point to the fckeditor installation, which nevertheless is missing:

root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll fckeditor
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Oct 25  2014 fckeditor -> ../../fckeditor
root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll ../../fckeditor
ls: cannot access ../../fckeditor: No such file or directory

Is this a Deban misconfiguration or a bug in Elog? thanks

I tried to paste an Image from Clipboard into the CKEditor 4.5.1. Unfortunatelly, that doesn't work. I used Firefox, version 42. When I  looked in the javascript error console, it reported that "TypeError: b is undefined, ckeditor.js:1139:112". The variable  d.config.filebrowserImageUploadUrl could not be found.

I set the variable in the file ckeditor-config.js in the folder scripts, but that didn't solve the problem. As far as I can tell, Pasting Image from Clipboard does not work in this forum neither, but I don't know whether this is in purpose.

Pasting via the button "Paste from Word" works as it inserts a 64base formated image, but that's not what I'm searching for. Also normal upload of files works fine and puts the file in the correct folder (logbook/year/)

HI Guys,

Can you please give me an idea how will I write in the config. I want my elog will be accessed via internet. Though there's a tutorial / guideline, I need an actual config file for me to easily grasp how the URL = xxx should be write. Do my port should be Port = 433 and SSL=1?

Thanks,

 

Raymund

Good night,

I would be grateful if someone could indicate me, how could I increase the size of the block where the text of the atribute are in the summary mode.I would like, for example, increase the size of the "subject" you can see on the picture.

Thank you so much!!!

  68270   Fri Feb 26 17:35:54 2016 Entry Juergen Diefenbachdiefenba@uni-mainz.deBug reportLinux3.1.1Execute new|edit doesn't seem to work
I am trying to use the "Execute new|edit|delete" feature to track changes to an elog using git.

When a new entry is created a shell script should be executed (certain attributes of the logbook entry should be passed as arguments to it). The script will then automatically stage all changes and create an appropriate git commit message. For a "new" entry in the logbook the commit message is a bit more verbose. When editing or deleting a message only a short commit message like "Edit message 25" should be created. Therefore I really need to distinguish between "new", "edit", and "delete".

However, I experienced unreproducible behavior when creating "new" entries. Sometimes the command specified by "Execute new=" is called, sometimes the one specified by "Execute edit=" is executed. Most of the time it doesn't work as expected. Frown

What I did so far to understand what goes wrong is I looked into elogd.c and found in
void submit_elog(LOGBOOK * lbs)
that bedit is sometimes true and sometimes false, when creating a new entry, although it should be false then (right?).
This is why elogd then sometimes retrieves the wrong shell command from getcfg(lbs->name, "Execute edit"...) instead of getcfg(lbs->name, "Execute new"...) around line 23610 (not exact due to some eprintf()s inserted here and there to look at bedit and so on).

When deleting an entry, everything works fine: the shell command defined via "Execute delete=" is run, but this happens somewhere else in the code so it's not a surprise.

Do you have an idea how to fix this or can you point me in some direction to further track it down? Thank you!

I think with the latest Imagemagick from brew (6.9.4-7) that pdf thumnails no longer get made; the attachment is there but the message "Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation" apears instead of the thumbnails.  I couldn't make out from elogd -v 3 why they failed, but I couldn't make out the exact convert command that was failing.  This is on MacOS 10.11.5 and I think the updated version ofImagemagick was the last thing that changed before it failed.

My group uses the precompiled Debian binary, and I use ELCode to format my log reports. (I've found it to be the easiest way to generate inline images)

Yesterday, I submitted an entry that renders correctly on the elog itself, but the email report that was sent to my collaborators was quite confusing, because every picture in it was the same. Interestingly, all the images used inline in the report were attached to the original, but they were stripped of their context.

I've attached screen shots of both reports.
