Setting From: for registration/password e-mails, posted by Ben Waugh on Fri Feb 16 12:08:19 2007

We had a problem, as mentioned in the documentation, with "new password" e-mails being rejected because the default From: address is invalid, so we changed this using "Use Email From".

According to the documentation, "By default, the email address of the currently logged in user is used for the "From:" field. If no user is logged in, or the current user has not specified a email address in the password database, the setting of the option Use Email From is used for the "From:" field."

However, when an address is specified in "Use Email From" we find that all e-mail notifications, even those sent automatically when a logged-in user submits a log entry, are sent from this address.

How can we set a valid address for use for "change of password" or registration e-mails, but still use the appropriate user's e-mail address for log entries?

Right. The logic in the program and the documentation disagreed. The program uses the "Use Email From" address always if it's there, while the documentation gives preference to the user's email address. I change that in the program so that it agrees with the documentation. The modification is in SVN revision 1789 and will be contained in the upcoming next release.

Actually I had to change it once more. Some installations do want to have always a pre-defined email address, such as this forum, which uses noreply@psi.ch. So I added a new option Default Email From. The precedence is now in decreasing order

Use Email from
user's email address
Default Email from

So only when a user is not logged in, the Default Email from setting is used if present.

About Extendable, posted by bob on Tue Feb 13 15:57:25 2007

Hi,

I have a problem and I do not understand why

my config is

"
{tdl} Show Attributes = De, He, Auteur, Ten, TDL
{tdl} Options TDL = de, fr, gt
{tdl} Extendable Options = TDL
"

I play with {tdl}, i add TDL (toto),

and after that, i open my config:

"{tdl} Show Attributes = De, He, Auteur, Ten, TDL
{tdl} Options TDL = de, fr, gt, toto, toto
{tdl} Extendable Options = TDL
"
And my preview is wrong !!

why 2 * toto thus?

thanks a lot

Bob

I tried it myself and did not get two "toto"'s. Maybe you hit "Submit" twice or so? One thing I would recommend however is not to name an attribute "TDL" and a condition {tdl} the same. And also make sure you have the newest version of elog. I remember there was once a problem with the "Preview" button adding extended attributes more than once.

Ok,
in the summary,
we can look at each line with its adapted attributes.
I would like the same line which informs several attributes without modifer List display = ID, Date...
Is this possible?

Synchronization using https, posted by Alexandre Lindote on Thu Jan 18 16:29:43 2007

Hi,

I have an elog server running on a linux desktop machine inside our institutional firewall. It can be accessed from inside the firewall directly using http, but users from outside have to use https, with apache (and its ssl module) controlling the access.
I also set up another server on my laptop, just for backup purposes, and synchronized it inside the firewall (using a direct http connection). No problems there!
Now we want to have several servers set up (in different institutions), and have them synchronized automatically. For this I installed elog on a mac server (in another institution, so outside our firewall), also accessible only through https (again using apache).
I configured all the required mirror settings, but always get an error: "Remote server is not an ELOG server".
I've tried changing the status of the 2 machines (server-client), but get the same error...
I also tried different approaches for the Mirror server parameter, like
https://the.remote.server
https://the.remote.server:443
http://the.remote.server:443
but no luck...

Running elog with the -D flag off issued this message:

Apache/1.3.33 Server at shalott.pp.rl.ac.uk Port 80

The servers have user level passwords, and I'm mirroring with Mirror user parameter set to the administrator...
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Alex

Synchronization works such that the "client" elogd (the one on which the synchronization is started) "emulates" a browser and accesses the other elogd server. Since SSL is not built into elogd, it can only use the http protocol, not https. If you want secure synchronization, the only chance you have is to make a SSH tunnel on which you run the http protocol for synchronization.

Would it be possible to use rsync to syncronise two elogd servers on different servers via secure synchronization on the file level?
E.g.
rsync -av -e ssh /var/lib/elog/logbooks/ elog.remote.de:/var/lib/elog/logbooks/

Re: Synchronization using https, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Feb 13 15:36:08 2007

Marcus Hauser wrote:

Do do this, you have to do the following:

Stop both elogd servers on each side
Do the rsync
Restart the elogd servers

This is necessary because an elogd server does not rescan the database files unless it's restarted. Note that you only can synchronize on a day level. Like if in a single day new entries are made on both sides, you have a conflict. This is not the case if you do the internal elogd synchronization, because this works on an entry level (actually that was the reason why this internal synchronization was invented). So new entries on both sides which were made as the same day will be merged intelligently.

ELOG Crash by many email address, posted by An Thai on Fri Jan 12 15:28:46 2007

Hello,

when I try to set above 112 email addresses in
"Email All = ..."
the Elog service will crash with the error ntdll.dll or memory addresses x0000000.
This problem does not happen when I reduce the number of email addresses.

Have you had the same problem?

Re: ELOG Crash by many email address, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Jan 16 23:01:30 2007

An Thai wrote:

I fixed that crash in the current version, but there is actually a limit of 100 email addresses. So anyhow you won't get the 12 ones above 100. I will try to increase that limit in the next version of elog.

Hi Stefan,

I'm also having a problem in the latest version with Elog crashing with multiple email addresses.
I am using 'MOptions' for email list selection using the execute shell script to send a predefined list (ie. the email list is in a text file not in the Elog config).
It seems when the list contains exactly 9 addresses it causes Elog to crash with a failure similar to An's, any less or any more and they are sent fine? Also when certain combinations of multiple list selections are made the Elog process will also crash? I am running the Elog process as an application (ie. not as a service, as per An's workaround) as it's the only way I can get the -x switch to work with Windows, this means the Elog daemon has to be manually restarted. Running WinXP SP2.
Any suggestions?

Thx

Two different attributes with the same list, posted by deletoille on Wed Jan 17 09:20:17 2007

In this picture of my project, All the attributes included in the red circle are the same except the names of the attribute “Equipement Incriminé” and “Equipement impacté”.
“Equipement Incriminé” and “Equipement impacté” have the same list.

The displayed list for the both attributes is the multiple conditions result coming from the choice of “groupe incriminé or impacté, sous ensemble, selection, and localisation”.

So if I have to program the list twice, it will be twice bigger.

Do I need to program the same list twice for the two attributes or is there a simple command to say that the two precedent attributes are equal?

Thanks in advance

I don't understand your problem. The picture you attached, was this some ELOG output (it looks very different than the usual one...)? Do mean you have two attributes with the same "Options <attribute> = ...,..,.." list? With "multiple conditions" you mean that you do a search in ELOG with a condition one one attribute, but in the filter list both attributes having the same option list are shown. Is this correct? What section of the configuration file are you talking about?

Best regards

Ok, now I understand. No, there is no simple way, you have to specify both lists explicitly. But it's just a copy and paste in your editor Wink

By the way, have you discovered Google Translate? Like http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fmidas.psi.ch%2Felogs%2FForum%2F2115&langpair=en%7Cfr
Not perfect, but readable. I know a Korean and a Japanese guy who do not speak English but talk to each other via email with this automatic translation tool Korean->English->Japanese and back. Amazing.

How many topgroups can be defined?, posted by Exaos Lee on Sat Jan 13 17:35:45 2007

I defined 6 top groups in my cfg file as the attachment.
But ... It doesn't work as I wanted.
The 4th and 5th groups need login. But when I clicked the 4th or 5th group, the login isn't needed.
And the 4th and 5th password files are not generated automatically.

When changing groups and to groups, one can sometimes get fooled by old cookies. Delete all your cookies and try again.
