Well, then you should get German locale. I just tried with the same version and following elogd.cfg, so I don't know what you are doing wrong:

[global]
port = 8080
language = german

[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject

Hello all,

I have a problem with retrieving attachments of an entry on "Execute new" command. In the syntax of elodg.cfg it is: In addition the list of all attachments can be referred to via $<attachment>. Could anyone explain it a little bit more explicit, or attach an example?

Thank you in advance.

Hello again,

I have managed with problem by using $attachments. This provides me a list o paths to attachments. If it's the correct way to use it please change elogd.cfg syntax page.

Thanks a lot.

Yes, indeed there was a typo in the documentation, $attachments is the correct one. I changed that in the syntax page.

Hello Stefan,

first of all thanks for quick response.

However I encountered another problem, but to explain it well I need to tell you more what actually I want to do with these substitutions. 

So I would like to have a python script which on add new entry will create a new entry in another logbook with the same data (Only for certain attributes' values). That's why I need attachments.

These substitutions will be used as command line arguments of the script.

Since I started using $attachments, all the substitutions used before it, are passed twice? Without using $attachments substitution, it works fine - they are passed only once.

Furthermore I tested it without script, just passing them to a text file, and it seems that it really doesn't work well. Could you check that?

-------------------

Execute new = echo $message id '$long_name' '$System' '$Equipment' '$Subject' '$text' > /tmp/zzz_elog.log             WORKS GOOD

Execute new = echo $message id '$long_name' '$System' '$Equipment' '$Subject' '$text'  $attachments> /tmp/zzz_elog.log            DOESN'T WORK GOOD

------------------

Thank you a lot in advance.

Hi,

I recently upgraded elog from 2.7 to 3.1 and have a hard time to insert images inline. The attachements work just fine. I am certain it is something silly, but I cannot figure it out.

1. In edit mode, I click the image icon
2. A pop-up "Image Propertied" shows with two tabs "Image Info" and "Upload" (selected)
3. Click on Browse button and select an image
4. Now
   • if I click OK, I get an error "Image source URL is missing".
   • if I go to "Image Info" tab - what URL am I supposed to enter, 68757/<1> ?

I found an old thread elog:68410 (from 2016) but could not find a solution that would work for me. Where does "Preview attachments" option should be inserted? In the global section?

Hopefully there's a simple explanation for this

Piotr

Before you click OK on your point 4, click on "Send to Server".

Stefan

I did just that. The image was properly send to the server (it appears in the attachement list). However clicking OK still produces "Image source URL is missing".

What is the URL that refers to an attachment? I've tried 68759/<1> and 68759/1 and even elog:1234/<1> (where 1234).
