A couple of observations, posted by David Pilgram on Fri Mar 28 14:29:24 2014

Hi Stefan and Andreas,
When I submitted the previous entry, I had an error message about not able to send via psxxxx.psi.ch come up as
a red bar at the top of the elog page - sorry, cannot remember the subdomain name correctly.
The observations I was going to make is firstly the change in layout of the Find section - maybe I'll get used
to it but the change in layout wasn't warmly welcomed.
Also, shame that moving from Subversion means that the increments are no longer in easy numerical order. So I
believe that I am commenting on the latest possible version available, a738232.
A question. My logbooks directory is now 1.8GB. Yes, there are a lot of attachments etc to bulk it out, but
it's all plain text comments. Is there a limit as to the size, or total number of entries? Elog takes a
notible amount of time to index it all these days, and I have wondered whether a couple of "instabilities" might
be caused by this. Anyone any thoughts?
I don't know how I managed it, but I got elog to generate two entries with the identical ID no. The new entries
were different as well. The log file faithfully had recorded the two separate replies to the entry having the
same ID no as well. Unfortunately I went and corrected it by editing the YYMMDDa.log file without keeping a
copy. I have also had a mysterious entry ID0 appear in threaded display, despite there being no entry 0; and if
it appears, it appears in two or three places within the list of threaded entries. |
ELOG moved to GIT, posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Jul 24 02:19:17 2013

The ELOG repository has been moved from Subversion to GIT. While the old repository will be visible for some time, all new development is done on the GIT repository. To download the repository, do a
git clone https://bitbucket.org/ritt/elog.git
git clone https://bitbucket.org/tmidas/mxml.git
or access it online at https://bitbucket.org/ritt/elog/

I have the strange problem that when changing to "full"-diplaymode the output looks the same as with "summary", only the color is different. The texts don't appear.
Any idea what can cause this behaviour?
thanks

I now have the same problem in 2.9.2. Attached please find the elogd.cfg
Best regards

I am on an experiment that used ELOG for all documentation and meeting notes. In our meeting notes we link to elog posts that had been discussed during the meeting. We had done this by hyperlinking the URL to the entry. Recently we had to move our logbook to another machine and so none of our hyperlinks work since the URLs have changed. I noticed that when one creates a new entry in the subject they can reference another post. Is there a way to link another elog in the body of the elog by using its logbook name and id number without having to use a URL?
Thanks in advance

This is one of the rare cases where it helps to read the manual: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html#add (You may need to upgrade to elog 2.9)
If you want to replace the old URLs with the new ones, you can edit the logbook files with the entries. The attached script allows you to do so easily. But be careful, try it on a copy of your data first.
 ⇄
Detect language » English
⇄
Detect language » English
Using:
regreplace "<old-url>" "<new-url>" *a.log
I hope this helps.

Hello, you can use the "Deny" flag in the config file for each logbook.
Deny <function> = <user>
Example: Deny Edit = Gian
simply add as many deny functions as you would like. Its a bit of work if you have a lot of logbooks but its the easiest solution.
Hope that helps.
Elog Syntax guide is helpful for this stuff too.

Thanks for help. It work's.
But I want to know if I can block a logbook from a user. For example I have a logbook named "Store". I want only users of the vendors have access to this log. How can I do it?
I didn't find this in manual.

The only way I find for this trouble is using the "Login user". But we have something best?

I haven't found a specific way to block viewing a log book.
I use the top groups settings to keep users in the logbooks they only need access to.
Example
Top Group = Logbook Group1, Logbook Group 2
Group Logbook Group 1 = Logbook1, Logbook2
Group Logbook Group 2 = Logbook3, Logbook4
Then only assign users for logbook1 and logbook2 that you wish to view those logbooks only. They would have to go to the specific top group url in order to view the logbooks.
Then you can go to http://elogurl/(top group)/
And essentially just have the users view the only logbooks they are assigned to. |
