For example, add a menu "expend" in "Find menu commands", we can click to view all the attributes or just view the attributes defined in "List Display"
Or use "{1} List Display = ....", we can view all the attributes at list page, but if selecting SunOS, only show attributes in List Display |
In that case I would suggest two separate logbooks, for for SunOS and one for others. This way you can manage two separate sets of attributes. |

i'm getting white background and no icons anywhere.
so tried to install in a clean location as it comes out of the box with no changes. get white background, no colour.
tried moving css files, graphic files, etc, around - nothing.
emptied bowser caches (IE and Opera)
deleted appropriate cookies
stop and started many time.
and still at the end of the day - i get a white background only, no colour what so ever.
also get page not found when clicking on a row to edit entry.
example: http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/1
is record #1 in demo table, elog can't display it when i click on it in the list window.
any ideas? |
That's strange. Can you check if elog finds it's own host properly? The CSS file should be under
http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/default.css
and if you look at the HTML source of you standard page you should see something like:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/default.css">
Could it be that elog places something else than "dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us" as the host name? If so, you could override this with following statement in elogd.cfg:
URL = http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/
That should also fix your other problem. |

We don't want separate logbooks, sorry for the misleading. I was trying to put two request together.
1. We have several user using the logbook. Is there a way each one has his own "List Display". In our case the user also is an attribute(SysAdmin) in logbook:
Attributes = Name, SysAdmin, Manufacturer, Model, Serial Number, Description, ENV, Main Function, Location, Memory, CPU Speed, Num CPU, Owner, Contact Name, Contact Phone, Contact Email, Bought From, Bought Date, Maintenance, Network Drop,Console Drop
Options SysAdmin = user1{1}, user2{2}, user3{3}
so one way we can think of is using "{1} List Display = ...."
"{2} List Display = ...."
"{3} List Display = ...."
because most of the time the user is interested in his own machine. Maybe you have better suggestion.
2. We need to change elog.conf file to use or not use "List Display". Is there a way to control it through web? If this is not applicable. It's fine, we won't change the view frequently. |

I understood you correctly. What I was trying to say is that what you currently request possible with the current version and will not be implemented soon. But you can partly obtain what you want by having two logbooks. Make one logbook which has fewer attributes, and which will receive all SunOS entries. Make another one with all the attributes. Although this will become separate logooks, you can "think" of them as one logbook with two different sections. There is even the trick of forcing the data directory to be the same (via the "data dir") option, so both logbooks will "look" at the same database. Make one logbook the "master" having all the attributes. That's where you enter your information. Them make one or more logbooks looking at the same data, but make them read-only. Each logbook can have a separate set of attributes, access rights etc, but all of them show the same data.
I know this is not the perfect solution, but at least something which can be done already now. |

Kees Bol wrote: | What goes wrong here? |
The wrong sorting is a mystery to me. I redid what you have, and entered exactly the same entries, and got following:

As you can see, the sorting is quite different. What happens if you reload the page, what if you restart elogd?
As for the missing validity check for the date field, all what was missing was the year check. I added that. |

OK tried all that and nothing. html source reads like it should.
I can see the discussion/forum here site as it should be
I updated a working setup from 2.54 to 2.60.beta3 and I get the white background with no colours on the restart of Elogd. Going back to 2.54 brought back the colours.
this is the source <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://ISE-DEVEL1-OLD/default.css">.
Works in 2.54, does not seem to work in 2.60beta3
I've tried coping the default.css file to everyplace i could think of and then a few more places. 
This has happened on NT 4 server, 2000 server, and XP client machines. Brand new installs (server never saw elog before), upgrades in place, etc, etc, etc. Wish we could run linux in the shop.
Tried in the cfg file:
Resource dir = c:\e-log
Logbook dir = c:\e-log\logbooks
Theme = default
CSS = default.css
This is so strange.
Any ideas on where to go in trouble shooting this? |

think I figured it out- had to make explict most of the default settings: resource, logbook, url, theme, css and so on.
so this is done. |

Stefan, I think it has something to do with version 2.57-1. Yesterday evening I installed V2.60 and there was a big difference. All entries of Logdate were changed in 1-jan-70 and when entering/editing an entry I now get the calendar and clock. So everything, including sorting, looks good now.
