I've created an elog where users can then enter links to a file: for example they would enter:

<a href="file:///M:/Data/Inspection%20Reports/ABC123.doc">ABC123</a>

If they are running this on their desktops where everyones M drive is mapped to the same location, not a problem, the file opens perfectly.

The problem we have is some people work off of site and hence they run everything from a memory stick (USB drive), then once back in the office, copy the memory stick back on to the network.

Unfortunately when off of site the href link M: is no longer valid as the M drive doesn't exist.

Hence i've been trying to open a local file with the following syntax: 

<a href="file:///../ABC123.doc">ABC123</a>

It just won't open

Hence in my frustration i basically copied the word file ABC123.doc into every single directory on the memory stick thinking surely this must work, it must find it somewhere, unfortunately not.

What am i doing wrong?

It is possible to change the justification for a column/attribute in the list mode (left-aligned, centered, right-aligned)?

Right now Elog treats each colum of a list as centered,

thank you

Hello all,

I would like to configure the email that is sent to notify users, when an entry is submitted:

- Is it possible to attach to the mail the files attached to the entry ?

- Is it possible to configure a string (with entry keywords) that will appear in the mail content instead of the default content ?

Thank you!

Christine

Periodically (rarely) on manually adding a record into Elog it generates a duplicate record with its own incremented ID and I don't know why. I just delete the duplicate in the meantime but would like to know if anyone else has seen this and whether their is a answer/fix for it. Thanks.

We have elog-2.7.5-1.i386 on SL 5

If I create an elog entry using the web interface, and include an inline image,  email is sent with a zero-length named attachment - the MIME header is present, but no content.

In the config file, Email Format = 47, though I also tried with format = 63.

Is this a bug that was fixed in a later version, or a configuration error (or a new bug) ?

This command makes the Homepage a FIND page: Start page = ?cmd=Find

My question is: can we pre-populate some of the search fields and execute the search so that the homepage becomes the SEARCH RESULTS

Dear all,

I have elog version 3.12-bd75964 installed on an Ubuntu OS. We started working with it yesterday and today I was informed that the users could not connect to the elog. When I tried it was also not possible to get to the elog website. After restarting the Ubuntu machine everything was back to normal.

Is there a log I can check to find out why the elog stopped working?

Regards,

John

Hi,
  we are running an elogd (with SSL) server on a machine and using apache as a proxy.

The authentication to the apache server is managed via LDAP module directly by apache, while, so far, we have no authentication enabled in the elogd server itself.
So, when a used want to access the elog server, he is required to provide user/pwd by apache, and then he can access the elogs.

We would like to use the elog command line to transit entries automatically from a terminal from a different host.

the command line we are trying is:

echo "Test" | elog -v -h elog.belle2.org -a Author="stefano" -a Type="Other" -l elog -s demo -u username password  -p 443

where username password are registered into LDAP.

In response we have a 401 Unauthorized. The full return message is at the end of this message.

I suspect that the "username password" we pass to elog are supposed to be that of elogd, not that of apache/ldap: I don't know if this is the case.

Does anyone have an idea how to make this work?

Thanks in advance,
  Stefano
