trying to write a time keeping system with elog. At work this is done with an Excel Sheet. Was just trying to see if it could be done with elog. And Yes it can be done. There is only one disadvantage : it's very slow in stating up. Has this to do with the large listings I've included into the configutation file , or is there something wrong in my config file.???

Is there somebody with an advice for this one ??

This has to do with the extensive use of conditional attributes. It has been reported by someone else recently and there is a fix: Just upgrade to Version 2.6.1-7 (SVN revision 1696). Also read the note about List conditions in the documentation.

Thanks for you're quick answer. I'm running version SVN 1695 ( which is the latest ) on windows. SVN 1696 is not available for this Operating System.

Hello Stefan


Have some problem with elog. just upgraded to version 2.6.2. revision 1699 for windows

Below is the example from the "man-page"

[New_test]
List conditions = 1 /* for version 2.6.2 revision 1699 */

Attributes = PC Name, Operating System, Version, Location, Floor
Options Operating System = Linux{1}, Windows{2}
Options Location = Main Building{a}, New Building{b}, Old Building{c}
{1} Options Version = 2.2, 2.4, 2.6
{2} Options Version = ME, 2k, NT, XP
{a} Options Floor = Ground, First, Second
{b,c} Options Floor = Ground, First


If I use the above on version :
elogd 2.6.1 built Jul 5 2006, 12:49:34 revision 1695
Indexing logbooks ... done
Server listening on port 80 ...

All is working fine . But using verion 2.6.2 revision 1699 , No matter the option : List conditions = 1
The Floor options will not be displayed.

Maybe I'm missing something about the "list display" .

Can you show me a correct example. ??

This does not have anything to do with List conditions but with a bug I introduced in 1696. I fixed it now in 1702. I will soon make a 2.6.2-2 containing that fix.

This is the configuration from this logbook. There are a few special things:

  • it uses the same password file as the 'forum' logbook
  • it has a guest menu so that people without an account can read it
  • the author and email are automatically taken from the password file
  • a 'last revision' gets updated on each edit
  • entries can only changed by the origial author ('restrict edit = 1')
  • no email notification is sent

Please find the elogd.cfg attached.

This is the configuration of the discussion forum on this server. Special 
things are:

- a guest menu so people without an account can read it
- an entry can only be edited by the original author ('restrict edit = 1')
- the author and email attributes are taken from the password file and
  cannot be changed by the author, thus to make sure who wrote a specific
  entry
- the email notification is sent to all people who registered for it, but
  their email address is not contained in the "To:" field 
  (Omit Email to = 1) so that they don't see each other's email address
  (for security reasons). For the 'from' field in the email, my address
  is used to that people can hit 'reply' on automatic notifications and
  they will reach me.
- The option "Format <attribute>" is used for a compact page display
