I just got a Proxy error from your site: When I clicked on the change password link that was sent to my email, I entered my new password (which was the same that I believed to have used before) and after submitting this form, I got the Proxy error. Also I find that I can never login with my once set password. Is it the Email or username on gives in the login field? Other quirk: I never can preview my post. When I click preview, nothing happens. Submitting worked today but yesterday I was unable to submit a post. I clicked several times on the submit button and nothing happened. -- Christoph |

It seems that the submit/preview problem is solved. Submit/Preview buttons at the bottom of the page seem to work on the attachments only.
Sorry for the oversight on my side.

Let me add one observation though: I always have to put the Submit or Preview button twice in this forum. The first time no reaction happens. The secend click dows the action.

Yes this observation is right. It's related to a new "fix" I was asked for: People do not want an entry to be submitted if they fill in an attribute and hit <ENTER>. So I added some javascript to prevent this, but the bad side effect right now is that you have to click Preview or Submit twice. I'm working on it. |
How to overide the Date attribute?, posted by Adam Blandford on Wed Nov 24 07:47:25 2010
|
| Hi I have a logbook where I want to override the default Date attribute.
I would like to set it by default to the entry date but enable the user to modify to a different date if desired. This is for entries that pertain to an activity performed on a date different to the entry date.
To acheive this I have created an attribute called "Subject Date" and used preset = $date. In general this works but I would be happy to take any other suggestions on how to acheive it?
Also, how do I remove the fixed "Date" attribute from the logbook summary page?
I have tried:
List = ID, Subject Date, Type, Subject
in the config file but this doesn't appear to work?
Thanks in advance!

The option to change what is displayed is called List display = ... and not List = ... Then it works.

Error: Missing required attribute "Category"
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.
When I leave out the quotes in the -u part , it just hangs despite the -vvv on the server console and the -v option used in the elog command line. Nothing happens. No output at the server debug screen.

Hello Yoshio
Thanks for the answer. Just solved the problem i was having. It seems that the -m option for elog.exe is a required commandline option. When skipping it elog just waits to get something.
Thanks for the time you took to answer this question.
Kind regards Arno Teunisse

You are right; I didn't see that part was missing. On the other hand, I obviously didn't see a few other things in your post, either ...  |

There are three ways to supply the elog main body text:
1) Via a text file and the -m switch
2) On the command line, like
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l demo -a author=sr -a type=Routine "this is the main body text"
3) Interactively. If you omit both the -m switch and the text, elog reads from the terminal. You can enter several lines, and finish with Ctrl-Z (Windows) and Ctrl-D (Linux)
C:\>elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l demo -a author=sr -a type=Routine
This is the
main body text

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. |

Elogd service crashes on "reply" with percent character in subject line, posted by Mike Zuber on Thu Aug 19 15:26:35 2010
|
My logbook kept crashing whenever I tried to reply to an existing entry. I found that the percent sign "%", when used in the subject line, will crash the elogd service when you try to reply to the entry. This appears to only happen with windows installations. I tested this on your Linux logbook and it didn't crash.
Here is the message taken from the Windows event viewer after the crash:
An unhandled win32 exception occurred in elogd.exe [5224].
Thank you for Elog, you have done a good job with it. It is a great logbook.

I could not reproduce your problem. I tried the very simple config file:
[Demo]
Attributes = Author, Subject
and the problem did not occur (see attachment). Can you try the most recent version (elog280-4.exe) with this simple configuration. Maybe you have a more complicated configuration which causes the problem. In that case please send it to me, so that I can reproduce the problem. |

Thank you Stefan for your help on this. I am using version 2.8.0 built Aug 2, 2010 rev 2312. I tried your configuration file and the problem did not occur. Using my config file the elogd crashes using the % sign in the subject when replying to the entry. So the problem is something in my config file. After checking through my config file and remming out individual lines and testing, I found that the following statement is causing the problem:
Preset on reply subject = Re: $Subject
I was using this to put the "Re:" on the replies.
The only problem now is I don't get the "Re:" in the subject on replies. Am I doing something wrong to cause this? My config file is attached.
Thanks,
Mike |

An unhandled win32 exception occurred in elogd.exe [5224].
Thank you for Elog, you have done a good job with it. It is a great logbook.

I could not reproduce your problem. I tried the very simple config file:
[Demo]
Attributes = Author, Subject
and the problem did not occur (see attachment). Can you try the most recent version (elog280-4.exe) with this simple configuration. Maybe you have a more complicated configuration which causes the problem. In that case please send it to me, so that I can reproduce the problem.

Thank you Stefan for your help on this. I am using version 2.8.0 built Aug 2, 2010 rev 2312. I tried your configuration file and the problem did not occur. Using my config file the elogd crashes using the % sign in the subject when replying to the entry. So the problem is something in my config file. After checking through my config file and remming out individual lines and testing, I found that the following statement is causing the problem:
Preset on reply subject = Re: $Subject
I was using this to put the "Re:" on the replies.
The only problem now is I don't get the "Re:" in the subject on replies. Am I doing something wrong to cause this? My config file is attached.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for your detailed report. Actually the problem only happens if you have Re: $Subject and a '%' in the subject line. So you were the first one encountering this situation. I fixed it in release elog280-5 which you can download now. |
elog command line submission, posted by Erik Butz on Thu Nov 4 13:23:50 2010

Hi,
I am playing with the elog automatic subscription script, but somehow I am failing in submitting an entry.
I am using a syntax as this:
echo test | elog -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8085 -d /usr/local/elogbooks/Elog -l "Sub Elog" -a "Type=MyType" -x -u user passwd
and I get a message which says:
"cannot get host name: Success"
which seems contradictory and also there is no entry submitted.
The command is executed on the host where the elog is running, the port and directory are taken from the cfg File.
What is my mistake, where is my misunderstanding of the documentation?
Any hints appreciated.

The "-d" option is certainly wrong. This is only used when running elog under Apache. But otherwise it should work. I
tried it myself and it went fine. Try to add a "-v" flag to see verbose output. |

Cell Style Question, posted by Terry Bayne on Tue Nov 2 15:56:33 2010
|
Is it possible to include more than one style attribute in a "Cell Style" directive?
For example, if I want to change the background color and text color for a given cell:
Cell Style Status Fixed = background-color:green;color:white
If so, what is the proper way to encode it?
Thanks,
Terry |

Your syntax is correct. If you try a big font for example
Cell Style Status Fixed = background-color:green;font-size:40px
it will work. The problem here is that the text decoration is defined differently since it's a link. The CSS defines these style via
/* standard link colors and decorations */
a:link { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:none }
a:visited { color:#800080; text-decoration:none }
a:hover { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
a:active { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
a:focus { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
but I don't know how to change these style inline without defining a new class.

The crypt.c file is not from me, so there might be some issues on other OSes. I defined now at least MIN/MAX by hand, and also removed mempcpy. The new version is attached. Can you try again to compile it? The strtoul and realloc are nomal C functions, maybe you have to add some other libraries for linking, but I'm not an expert for SunOS. |

It looks strange but when I copy and past the message, like I did here, the HTML format is OK, but not when I receive the email in Outlook. This used to be OK with the previous version.
Nothing has changed in Outlook |

The email notification contains the basic HTML code and an (external) reference to the underlying CSS. I use for example Thunderbird instead of Outlook, and this program asks me if I should "show remote content". Only if I click yes, then the external CSS is loaded. Outlook might also have an option "view as web page" or so. The old format did not use full HTML and therefore was displayed correctly. This can be changed with the email encoding = ... option. |
