  68714   Fri Jan 12 09:54:41 2018 Question Xuan Wuwux@ihep.ac.cnQuestionLinux3.1.3about attachment

Hi all,

Some elog users of our site(CSNS) mentioned some advice about attachment:

1.Can imagemagick create thumbnail for .bmp file now?

2.Can re-sort the attachments after attachments uploaded by dragging or clicking up/down arrow or anything except deleting and re-upload attachment again?

3.Can add some description under the thumbnail of uploaded attachment? I've suggested them adding the description to the name of attchment or writing the detail in the text area. They are seem not very satisfied with this solution.

Any advice and suggestion will be appreciated.

Cheers

Tooltips on 'ROptions' work since 2007, but your version 2.9.2 is pre-2007, so you should consider to upgrade.

Stefan, I know this request was a long time ago on an older version of E-Log (which we are still using) but can you tell me if Tooltips on Radio Buttons was ever implemented, it's not working on our version (2.92.2)?
Working as it should on MOptions?

I can't seem to get the Tooltips to show up using the 'ROptions' (radio buttons) though? Could you check if it is available for this please?


Did I tell that it also works with 'ROptions' ??? It does not! I implemented this just now in revision 1788. The fix will be contained in the next release.

Have you set

Resolve host names = 1

in the config file? If it still does not work, run "elogd -v" from the terminal and watch the output. You should see someting like:

Remote host "mpc1865.psi.ch" matches "ALL" in "Hosts deny". Access denied.
Remote host "mpc1865.psi.ch" matches ".lbl.gov" in "Hosts allow". Access granted.

 

Regards,
Stefan

Hi Susan,
the documentation states that you should start elogd with the -v option from the command line and look at the output. Did you try this?
You might post the output here to get further help.

Hi All,

We're still having trouble with hosts.allow and hosts.deny.

We're trying to allow all of our domain  lbl.gov to the access list

==========================

[ below denies ALL ]

Hosts allow = .lbl.gov

Hi Susan,

according to the documentation you need to add "Hosts deny = All" in addition to the "Hosts allow" command.
Here is the relevant excerpt from the documentation (https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#access).

  • Hosts allow = <list>
  • Hosts deny = <list>

These two settings can be used to restrict the access to the logbook to certain computers. It is similar to the UNIX hosts.allow and hosts.deny files. The list can consist of individual host names or IP numbers, subnet masks like 123.213. (note the trailing '.') or .mit.edu, or the word All. The following rules are applied:

  • Access will be granted when a host matches a pattern in "hosts allow".
  • Otherwise, access will be denied when a host matches a pattern in "hosts deny".
  • Otherwise, access will be granted.

These rules are applied before any password is checked. To debug problems, start elogd with the "-v" flag, in which case the rule checking is printed on the screen.

I am not aware that it is forseen to define logical operators in combination with the Style command. How did you get the idea that this should work?

But you should be able to define multiple Style commands, acting on different format parameter.

Hello,

where Result and Administration are Attributes.  Anyone?
