ELCode how to with URL, posted by toumbi on Mon Aug 27 17:27:41 2007
|
Hello there !!
I wonder if it's possible to write an url like this[URL=?CR=CR00000429]CR00000429[/URL]
in fact it don't work for the moment , because it is redirected tu http:///?CR=CR00000429
is it possible to have url without http://
I have a logbook CR and a type CR and i work now in localhost but i want my elog to be accessible from anywhere.
Im not very clear but I hope you understand.
[TABLE border="1"]
Emplacement|CR|TYPE|Cable trace voix 1|Cable trace voix 2|url|-
MON|CR00002536|Monitoring|x|x|[URL=http://localhost:8080/CR/?CR=CR00002536]CR00002536[/URL]|-

You can use the
elog:<logbook name>
redirection. So for this logbook, so see all entries with Category=Info using following link
elog:Forum/?Category=Info
This should work from everywhere. |

Synchronization Problems, posted by Nicole Ackerman on Wed Sep 5 01:09:00 2007
|
I'm currently running elog 2.6.5 on my (feisty ubuntu) laptop and desktop. I set up mirroring between the two which usually works, but occasionally I get an error (when sending from laptop to desktop) :
"Enty too long to display. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd."
When this happens my entry is shortened to 3 characters. This is frustrating as I have lost many important entries. I'm unsure why this is happening - they aren't the longest entries in my logbook (one was a one line linux command) and there doesn't seem to be anything "special" about the ones that do and do not sync. The last time I tried to sync I got this error on 3 entries and they appear to be corrupted - when I try to access them elogd stops responding.
On a presumably related note, every time I try to send an entry from my laptop to my desktop I get "Error sending local entry: Error transmitting message", though the entry has appeared to sync properly. I don't think I have ever had a problem transmitting from my desktop to my laptop.
Currently the only mirroring option I have added to my config file in on my laptop which is the IP of my desktop as the Mirror server.
I'm unsure what else I could post to help troubleshoot this problem - is it just something I've done wrong or that could be fixed with a reinstall?
Thanks!

I'm sorry for your trouble. The key to understand and fix this problem is reproducibility. Can you identify an entry which causes this error (of course back up the entry before trying). Then create a fresh logbook where you put only this entry. If you can reproduce the problem, can you send me that entry, together with your config files? Only if I can reproduce your problem, I can fix it.
Best regards,

Boolean, posted by Grant Jeffcote on Fri Aug 3 15:49:05 2007

Stefan,
I've noticed in the latest release when using the 'Find' page that any boolean expression (tick box) is now shown as '0,1 or unspecified'. Is this intentional? My colleagues are finding it hard to get their heads around what to choose and preferred the old 'Tick Box' option. Have there been changes to the configuration arguments used for Boolean that I've missed?
Thanks |

Well, maybe you didn't realize, but searching for boolean attributes never really worked. If you want to search for entries where a boolean is true (or 1), then you could check the tick box in the past. But if you wanted to search for all entries were an attribute was false (not true) you could not do it, because the system assumed you are not interested in an attribute if the tick box was not checked. With the new way, you could either specify 'unspecified' meaning you are not filtering on this attribute, or you can explicitly specify '0', to look for entries where the attribute is false. The best would be to have a three-state tick box, which can be on/off/grayed. Under Windows API this does exist, but not in HTML. So I had to go with the three radio buttons.
Now one could argue how to name boolean states. There are several options:
- 0 / 1
- no / yes
- false / true
- off /on
I have chosen the first one, but that's kind of arbitrary. If the community believes that another one is better, I'm willing to change. |

Thanks for the great explanation.
What are the chances of having a choice of the four options (as mentioned in your list) somehow so that when boolean-x is used (for example) in the configuration file the applicable option text is shown in the 'Find' page?
ie.
boolean-x = 0/1
boolean-y = no / yes
boolean-z = false / true
etc.
A long shot perhaps but don't know until you ask? 
Thanks |

Well, all this is possible with ELCode tags, as you can see below. The advantage is that you can enter these tags with any browser, even with a text based browser. Have you tried to use the web.de page with a non-IE browser like Firefox? It doesn't work! They use very special JavaScript and AJAX with locks you to IE. And this is not the philosophy of ELOG. You should be able to do everything, even if JavaScript is switched off.

Hi Stefan,
I have just found an open source for WYSIWYG text editor named FCKeditor at http://www.fckeditor.net/. It looks great. The download Zip-file for this tool is only 1 MB.
Dokumentation is here: http://wiki.fckeditor.net/
or TinyMSC
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/index.php
Have you an idea how to integrate them in elog?
Best regards,

I had a look and it just looks great. I will certainly add support for this editor, but I have to fix a few things, like inserting of images and the preview feature need modifications of FCKeditor. So stay tuned. |

How to change elog directories in windows, posted by toumbi on Thu Jun 28 15:20:06 2007

Hi , I need an example for windows directories syntax.
I would like to start elog in windows xp from a server directories "\\myserver\elog\" for example and/or "G:\elog\"
I want my elogd.cfg be on this server and not on my local hard drive.
also I would like the windows service start automatically from "\\myserver\elog\" or "G:\elog\"
thank you for your help. |

If you go to Computer Management, click on Services, double click on ELOG, you will see "Path to executable". Either you move elogd.exe to d:\elog and start it there, or you start elogd with the "-c" flag, which specifies the location of the config file, such as
...\elogd.exe -c g:\elog\elogd.cfg
I have to warn you however that sometimes I personally had kind of poor network connection to a Windows server, so the reply time of elog was many seconds. |

If you see the service config page, then the service is already registered, and you should not use the shortcut "Register ELOG server service" any more. Just change "Startup type" to "Automatic" or "Manual" and click on the "Start" button. |

Hi again, See what happen when i install it on Z:\ELOG\ (it is a mapped drive of \\myserver\ELOG\)
Why code 3 ?
Ps: last time , i stopped and registered the service to copie the last version of elogd 1870 |

No idea, this is an error coming from Windows. Try to start the service manually via the Service Manager, maybe you get some more error there. Or start elogd interactively in a DOS box, like
z:\ELOG\elogd.exe -v -c z:\ELOG\elogd.cfg
maybe there is some access rights conflict. |

When i start the service with start button it fail to lunch
but the command z:\ELOG\elogd.exe -v -c z:\ELOG\elogd.cfg work !!
Maybe The service doesn't have access right , ( i see it is Log on with Local System). |

I finaly found how to do it.
Replacing Z: by \\server.com\ELOG\ and running the service with my personnal acount
cmd /K net stop elogd
regedit
change ImagePath of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\elogd to "\\server.com\ELOG\elogd.exe" -D -c "\\server.com\ELOG\elogd.cfg"
close regedit
cmd /k net start elogd |

I tried your config file, and it works as expected. If your equipment type is Sour vide, then only three attributes are shown according to your config statement:
show attributes = auteur,Icone, Type Equipement
Here is how it looks in my browser:
If you choose however equipment type Apple II (do you still use those computers at soleil?), then you have condition {A} which activates your config statement:
{A}show attributes = auteur,Icone, Type Equipement, Equipement, Localisation, Type evenement
showing of course more attributes:

Certainly not. Double check that you have the current elog version (check the ELOG V2.6.5-1887 at the bottom). If you are on windows, you can try to install elog265-7.exe which is the most recent one. |

I am sorry but I have the same thing on a colleague PC. that functions works on the old version but not on the last 1886 (see at the bottom). When I push "new" boutton, all is displayed at the same time.

Grrrr. I already told you in elog:2287 to use Show Attributes Edit instead of Show Attributes. So put following into your config file:
show attributes edit = auteur,Icone, Type Equipement
Note the edit. |

Hi there !

That kind of functionality is unfortunately not implemented. All you can do is to use an automatically generated unique attribute with the syntax:
Preset <attribute> = XYZ-####
or similar. Please consult the documentation for details. |
