Hi,

is it possible to run a shell script in an "Options" tag, as it is with the "Preset", "Subst", and so on?
I need to have something like this:

Options Update of = $shell(/home/alex/zeplin3/elog/z3elog-mirror/documents/ext_docs.sh MinGen)

the script returns a line with comma separated values...

Thanks

Alex

Hello,
I found a small Bug when I create an entry. I activate a checkbox (attachement1) but when I upload a file, the activation disappears (attachement 2). I have to activate again the checkbox.
Is it something I can do?

Thanks in advance,
Xavier Deletoille

Xavier, your version number does not indicate the full SVN (it is cutoff at '172') but your screenshot indicates 'SVN1723'. This is an identified problem and looks to be fixed in SVN1740. I have verified with the checkbox "Suppress Email Notification" -- it likely effects all checkboxes.

Yes, I have. It doesn't seem to... Frown
I just get one option, which is the shell line itself.
Something like:

--- Please select ---
$shell(/home/alex/zeplin3/elog/z3elog-mirror/documents/ext_docs.sh MinGen)

Cheers

Alex

What about a threshold for the "All" display? If a logbook contains less than, let's say, 500 entries, the "All" link is displayed, and above 500 entries it's hidden. Would that make sense?


Hi Stefan,
Sorry for the late response, I was away for a few days. Yes, I think that this would make perfect sense, especially if the maximum number of entries was configurable.
Cheers,
Dimitris

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.

I have a password file called pwd.txt. It resides in the main elog directory, in my case, c:\elog, along with the elgod.exe and elogd.cfg. Apparently, the new version looks for it in the logbooks directory. I adjusted my path to the file and it works fine.

I am reporting this as a bug because it is my guess that this is not an expected result. I would expect the old elogd.cfg file to work without altering in the newer version.

Thanks, keep up the great work, Stefan. You have a great program.

I also just noticed that the text files I use for presetting the text window also have to be in the logbooks directory.

Hello,

I try to email by using a email text file to reduce the admin work.
  • MOptions Team = EUROPE, ASIA, AFRICA, AMERICA
  • Email Team EUROPE = $shell(type C:\EuropeEmailList.txt)

but i get always Email sent to Shell execution not enabled via -x flag

Is this feature not supported by ELOG or did i use the wrong syntax?

Thank you in advance.

You need to start elogd with the "-x" flag
