Please Notice that I've put quotes around : -u "username password" ( the documentation shows that this is not necessary) .  But now it failes to see a required attribute.  

Have you tried without the quotes? They may not be allowed!

Just for the record: It's actually forbidden. If you do -u "username password" then elog considers "username password" as the full user name, and the password is missing, so it takes the next argument as a password. In one of our trials it then used -a "Category=info" as the password, so the category was then missing.
