bob wrote: | 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

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. |

Stefan Ritt wrote: | 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. |

For simple configuration files, that should work. If I have for example:
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine{r}, Software Installation{s}, Problem Fixed{p}, Configuration, Other
{r} Required Attributes = Author
Then the attributes "Author" is only required if "Type" equals "Routine". |

Tobias Bagger wrote: | How do I preset a drop-down box entry which contains a % character? |
The problem was that '%' is used in auto-generated preset tags like XYZ-%Y-%b-### (see documentation). I made the auto-generation a bit more clever such that it only tries to interprete any '%' if there is any '#'. The fix is in elog version 2.6.4. |

you are right, I try to re-examine my configuration and I will say to you |

Martin Killenberg wrote: | I tried to compile ELOG on Scientific Linux Cern 4.4 and found that make quits because uname is not located in /usr/bin (like it is hardcoded in the makefile) but in /bin.
Later I found that this is only the case in the svn version, in the "latest.tar.gz" from 2007/02/20 the path is /bin.
Why do you have the absolute path in the Makefile? uname should be in the default path on any system. (The same applies to "rm")
I also was confused that you only provide one rpm Package (except for debian) without mentioning for which distribution. You try to avoid dependencies, but the elogd is linked against the basic libraries libc and ld-linux, which might vary. |
Ups. The hard-coded /usr/uname somehow sneaked in from some temporary test. I removed it in the current SVN.
Indeed the RPM package I provide is built under Scientific Linux. The Debian port is done by someone else. Unfortunately I don't have ten boxes with all possible distributions laying around, so my possibilities are quite limited and I depend on third party help. If you want to contribute additional RPMs you are welcome. |

Dear Stefan,
could you enable it for the install download file for Windows? |
I tried, but it does not work. A windows service does not let you start a internal command line shell. No way. Use Linux  |

the next thing happened was that eLog created a new log which wasn't editable at all, the only thing i could do was deleting it (i created a monster...;-)
The first line/rule with the [ become the title, all other entries in the Admin file were used as a new Admin file. |
You shot yourself in the foot 
I agree that a clever syntax check on the config file would be nice, but it's very hard to imagine how many mistakes humans (including myself) can do, I would probably never catch all possible wrong cases. Giving my limited time, I will more work on new features and kindly ask you to be a bit careful in what you enter. I'm absolutely sure you will never make this mistake again  |
