Hi Andreas,

Thanks - you pointed me in the right direction. It appears that my logbooks were a combination of the two versions. I had all the year-directories (version 3) but also all the entry files in the main logbook directory. Seems version 2 does not care but version 3 does not like it. After carefully checking and removing all the logbook files in the main directory version 3 now works.

Cheers,

  Yves

Hi Yves,
just my two pence, maybe they help you to figure out what's going on:
versions 2.* had all entries of one logbook in one directory. Version 3.* create a subdirectory for each year. This had been added for me: if you use AFS for logbook storage, then you have a limit on how many files you can put into a single directory.
So the first time you start elogd 3.* with data from an elogd 2.* it should move all your logbook entries into sub-directories for each year. If that would have happened, you would not be able to use these logbook directories with the 2.9.2 version.
Maybe your logbook client is not allowed to create sub-directories? Although I would guess that it then would just throw an error message and stop.
Cheers, Andreas

I have just upgraded elog from 2.9.2 -> 3.1.3.

3.1.3 runs fine with new logbooks. However, when trying to run 3.1.3 with my logbooks created with 2.9.2 things stop working.

Here is the command I run for testing [attachment 1]: first of all it takes a very long time (~ 10 minutes) for it to index the logbooks. When finished indexing I try it out in a web browser - it takes infinite time to load: no error message appears but also no logbook. After an hour or so elogd crashes without an error message.

When running 2.9.2 on the same machine, all runs wel (attachment 2)

 

cfd file: (I only left in one logbook - they are all configured the same)

[global]
port = 18080
Logging level = 3
Max content length = 500000000
Date format = %A, %d %B %Y


[Logrun - Amptek]
Theme = default
Comment = Logrun Amptec
Reverse sort = 0
Quick filter = Date, Type

 

Any ideas on how to solve this?
