Any suggestion?

Dear Steve,

thanks a lot. Sorry but I am not expert of elog. I "inherited" from a colleague and wanted to see if I can keep it alive but to do it I would need to move to UTC. Should this command affect the "INSERT CURRENT TIME/DATE" button? It does not seem to change.

How do you believe that you can preset a Submission item? Preset only works for attributes, so you have to define an attribute like "Submission UTC" or similar and preset this attribute with

Preset Submission UTC = $utcdate

Dear all,

I am trying to have the elog timestamp in UTC time instead of local time using the following config file but without success. Do you know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

The INSERT CURRENT TIME/DATE button is not affected by this setting.

Hi Luca,

if you want to change all datetime properties to UTC time, then you'll just need to set the timezone on the server to UTC, before elogd is started.

Cheers, Andreas

  68550   Wed Jan 18 05:25:44 2017 Question Lucarimbalzina@gmail.comQuestionLinuxELOG V3.1.1-"No SMTP host defined in [global] section of configuration file"

Hi,

I started re-using after a month an elog on my linux machine and, without any apparent reason since I did not used the machine at all in the last month, every time I try to submit a post I get the following error

"No SMTP host defined in [global] section of configuration file".

The weird thing is that today I created a new logbook using the previous one as a template and, on the new one, I can post without problem (although the configuration is identical).

Do you know what could be causing this?

These problems usually come when you are using a different configuration file that the one you think you are using. Note that you explicitly can tell elogd to use a specific configuation file with the "-c" flag. Also make sure to restart elogd after major changes.

  68344   Wed Jun 29 16:07:32 2016 Question JDelog@dreessen.itRequestLinux | Windows | Mac OSX | All | OtherELOG V3.1.1More than 100 attributes

I am modifying the elogd.cfg automatically with a script.  The Script fetches a list of systems from a LDAP database and writes them into an "Options" line in the elog.cfg.

Everything worked fine, until we hit the critical number of 100 attributes.  I saw this is also stated in the manual.

Is there any workaround? I downloaded the source code and hat a quit look, but couldn't find the section which is responsible for this behavior. 

Is there a reason for this limit?

 

Thanks

Jonathan

The limit is in the variable 

#define MAX_N_ATTR      100

in elogd.c. If you increase it and recompile, it could work, but at some time you will get a stack overflow since arrays with that size are dynamically allocated on the stack, and depending on your compiler settings the stack size is only finite.

Thank you Stefan, I think then I will leave it at the default value.  I need a stable Systen
