Hi , I need an example for windows directories syntax.
I would like to start elog in windows xp from a server directories "\\myserver\elog\" for example and/or "G:\elog\"
I want my elogd.cfg be on this server and not on my local hard drive.
also I would like the windows service start automatically from "\\myserver\elog\" or "G:\elog\"
thank you for your help.


If you go to Computer Management, click on Services, double click on ELOG, you will see "Path to executable". Either you move elogd.exe to d:\elog and start it there, or you start elogd with the "-c" flag, which specifies the location of the config file, such as
...\elogd.exe -c g:\elog\elogd.cfg

I have to warn you however that sometimes I personally had kind of poor network connection to a Windows server, so the reply time of elog was many seconds.

but it dont work. i have an error code 3 when i register the services with the shortcut "Register ELOG server service" .


If you see the service config page, then the service is already registered, and you should not use the shortcut "Register ELOG server service" any more. Just change "Startup type" to "Automatic" or "Manual" and click on the "Start" button.

The problem there is that your SMPT server does not reply with
250 OK

which my server does. So elogd was waiting 3 seconds for "OK", and then aborted. I change the code (now in SVN revision 1871) to look for "250 " (with one blank at the end). You have to update from SVN, recompile and try again. Anyhow elogd only supports plain login authentication ("AUTH LOGIN"), which not all SMPT servers accept. You have to see.

I changed the code of elogd to surround the strings with "" such as
linkHeading_prompt  = "Indiquez le niveau d'en-tête (1, 2 ou 3)";

that should do the job. The fix is in SVN, if you need the Windows executable, you have to wait for the next release.

Why code 3 ?


No idea, this is an error coming from Windows. Try to start the service manually via the Service Manager, maybe you get some more error there. Or start elogd interactively in a DOS box, like

z:\ELOG\elogd.exe -v -c z:\ELOG\elogd.cfg

maybe there is some access rights conflict.

Maybe The service doesn't have access right , ( i see it is Log on with Local System).


In that case it might help to run elog under your personal account.

No. It looks like PLAIN LOGIN is supported, but your username/password is wrong. Ask your SMPT system administrator.
