Hi,
is it possible to run a shell script in an "Options" tag, as it is with the "Preset", "Subst", and so on?

SVN1714 will not run in 'daemon" mode on Solaris8, posted by Steve Jones on Mon Sep 18 20:35:44 2006

On Solaris, SVN1714 will not go into daemon mode. Running the compiled version under TRUSS (which provides a dump of every system call) and shows precisely
where elog is failing. I have attached two TRUSS outputs: one where it errors out and the other where it runs but "interactively". Both runs are as root,
simply one with and one without the "-D" |

[quote="Steve Jones"]Very weird. No, I did not try an absolute path - but I did notice the attempt to "cd /" in the truss output. In fact, it was immediately
after that "cd /" test that things appeared to start not working - basically, elogd could not find anything.[/quote]

Bug? Password file location changed, posted by David Spindler on Thu Nov 2 18:02:44 2006
|
I just tried to upgrade from 2.6.1-1633 to 2.6.2-1734. Whenever I tried to access the elog, it showed my password to be invalid. I tried this on 2 machines
and same results. I did notice on the second one when I started it from a command prompt that it was creating a new empty password file in a different
location.

XML, CSV and Raw export produces 'last' page only, posted by Brian Marshall on Mon Nov 6 17:41:13 2006
|
The Find command page provides an option, 'Display n entries per page' which is useful when the result of the search is to be viewed on-screen.
However this value is also applied to CSV, XML and Raw export and only the 'last' page of data is exported.

Sorry if this has been asked.
Is there a spell check that can be implemented in Elog or any recommended add on spell check?

Interesting behavior with $shell, posted by Steve Jones on Fri Oct 27 19:11:32 2006
|
eLog does not do math so I am trying to leverage the $SHELL function to perform the math. I am using GAWK to perform the math -- I started trying to use
CONDITIONAL ATTRIBUTES to assign numeric values to attributes but with loading up the ATTRIBUTES with all of the options brings elog to its knees in terms
of performance -- the parsing of attributes is simply too string intensive.
