Hi Eric,

thanks for the reply. Unfortuantely, I still stuck with the same problem
after updating from ELPA.
If it works ok for you with the recent version of elnode and ehtml, I might
have to digg where my config is broken. I tried following the readmes but
the elnode server responeses with

<h1>Server error</h1>

at the website and I can't find any addtional error message in the logs.

Thanks for help and support

Torsten
