Do I have to program the list for "Equipement Impacté" or is there a simple command to say that "Equipement incrimé" and "equipement inpacté" have the same list?


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.

Now we want to have several servers set up (in different institutions), and have them synchronized automatically.


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.

I can't seem to get the Tooltips to show up using the 'ROptions' (radio buttons) though? Could you check if it is available for this please?


Did I tell that it also works with 'ROptions' ??? It does not! I implemented this just now in revision 1788. The fix will be contained in the next release.

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/


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.

Re Hi,
Is it possible to put various (and choose them) the attributes in the SAME columns of the “list” ??


I don't understand what you mean.

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?


No.

Ben Waugh wrote:
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.

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.
