  68949   Tue Apr 30 05:52:44 2019 Question Johnsecondcomingtechnologies@fastmail.comQuestionLinux3.1.2-bd75964How to sort on any field?

Hi, I was wondering if this is possible. I've tried to sort on anything other than the first few fields and although the screen refreshes like it is 'doing something', it does NOT sort. Sometimes it will take me to the last page of my data, but still no sorting. I use Debian Linux verson of Elog. There have been no other issues. I need to figure out how to do this without parsing it to another program first. Thanks again for this wonderful program :)

Apart from an inline shell command that can be run with the Execute attribute, is it possible to run an external script file? I would like to run a Powershell script with the Elog attribute data parameters passed to it upon Submit New entry.

  68970   Tue May 14 06:07:07 2019 Question Alan Grantagrant@winnipeg.caQuestionWindows3.1.2Shell execute

I have the line in my elog config to run a Powershell script when submitting a New entry. I just send an email as a test:

Execute New = "Powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass D:\SendEmail.ps1"

Fyi, the Powershell statement itself (Send-MailMessage -From 'MeterElog@winnipeg.ca' -To 'alangrant@mts.net' -Subject 'New meter entry' -Body 'TEST' -Priority High -DeliveryNotificationOption OnSuccess, OnFailure -SmtpServer 'citygw') works fine and the email is received when running it from the Powershell ISE app directly from the same elog vm server but not from within Elog with the above statement.

I'd like to first confirm that the syntax of the line Execute New = is correct, ie, double quoting the entire command. Can anyone please confirm.

We are installing a new data center which will be based on Windows 2012 servers.  Our current center is on Windows 2008 and will be decommissioned this year - 2008 servers (because of the security issue) will not be allowed in the new data center.  So game plan is to install latest ELOG (3.1.2) on the 2012 server at the new data center and move the logs over from the 2008 server.  I've looked through entries and do not see anything about moving the logs over from one system to another.  In this case there are 2 concerns:

1.  Has anyone moved the log entries from one system over to another?

2.  Since we are also looking at updating version of ELOG - are there conversion steps necessary for the log entries or will v3.1.2 be able to use the log files from v2.9.2 as is?

Thank you, Lesley

Hello,

we are extensively using ELOG for documenting changes in our infrastructure. It is very helpful for us.

To avoid multiple documentation efforts it would be even more helpful if the subject of an ELOG entry also could be the subject of the mail which is sent out. With that we could send mails to our ticket system and include the special ticket number to make the right assignment in our ticket system.

Does anyone know if this could be accomplished with the latest version of ELOG?

Best regards,

daniel

I have a question about my logbook. I have recently added a new attribute to my logbook and I would like to prefill all previous entries with a fixed value for this field. Is it possible? 

 

Thanks for your help and best regards,

  68992   Fri Jun 28 17:00:10 2019 Question Antonio Bulgheroniantonio.bulgheroni@gmail.comQuestionWindows3.1.4Unable to add entries with command line elog.exe with SSL

Dear all, 

we have a running elog installation using SSL (with the self-signed certificate). Generally we use the web interface, but we have been asked if it was possible to automatically insert elog entries via command line. 

elog.exe should be the answer and so I gave it a try.

I was trying the following command line: 

elog.exe. -h server-ip-address -p 8080 -l demo -s -v -u username password -a "Mass=0" This is a test entry

Of course server-ip-address and username / password were proper fields. 

When I was doing this from the server itself, I got the following message:

Successfully connected to host server-ip-address, port 8080
Possibly invalid certificate, continue on your own risk!

and then the entry was inserted, but when I was typing the same from any other PC I got the error message:

Successfully connected to host server-ip-address, port 8080
elogd server does not run SSL protocol

The entry is of course not added and also the server (that is running in very verbose mode) reported a

SSL_accept failed

How can I fix it?  

Thanks for helping,

Antonio
