Is there a way to print a summary of all (or selected) log books on a scheduled basis, say like every morning @ 7:00 am? I would like a printed copy of our daily logs (24 hr period). Thanks Eric

You can obtain the last 24hr period with the parameter last=1. Following command will return this last day for the forum

http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?printable=1&last=1

Now you need to set up some script which calls this once a day and then convinces the browser to print that page. But I have no idea how to perform this.

Another option is to print the xxxxxxa.log files of the elogd server directly. There is already one file per day, and the original reason for that is exactly what you ask for: You can print each day directly. Now you need a script which searched for the last day and prints that.

Re: add field type to automatically email CC

mmmm when i try your suggestion, it doesn't work :
error from the smtp server
Erreur lors de l'envoi d'un mél. via "172.20.0.2": Issue RCPT TO: command before DATA command

You get this error if no valid receiver is specified. I tried your config file and it worked fine. You need however a recent version of elog (2.6.2-7). Probably you have to upgrade.

i would like to have one fixed list, so those users will be always alerted, and to be able to add and adress email in the notification attribute, but i really don't know how to do it
thx for any suggestions

You can do that with

Preset Notification = someone@mail.com, someoneelse@mail.com

So Notification gets preset with a pre-defined list, which you can edit before submission.

Re: Conditional Email Notification by a text file

Can you reproduce this?

Yes, I get the same error. Shell substitution does not work when elogd is started as a service. This is a problem deep inside the service management of Windows and I do not know any solution for that. Sorry.

Question

Re: Attributes according to users

ather khan wrote:

Hi,
Is it possible to have certain attributtes available to certain user in one log boolk.
We have log book where the supervisor assign jobs to employees and we want only supervisor to have assign to attributes available and others only to view it.

You cannot restrict the modification if certain attributes, but you can restrict edits in general with the command

Allow edit = <name of admin>

You can also restrict the New, Delete, etc. commands to be only executable by the supervisor.

Re: Re: $long_name in Moptions

Fergus Lynch wrote:

Hi,

Is there a way of having $long_name in 'Moptions'?

We use ELOG (amongst other things!) to allocate work out to Developers (who are all configured as ELOG users) I would like to use 'checkbox' functionality to allocate out a task to more than one developer. Currently only a single developer is chosen from a drop down list.

This was not possible until now, so I implemented the option

Type <attribute> = muserlist

which gives you checkboxes (= multi-userlist) for all users instead of a drop down list. This feature is implemented starting from revision 1758 and it will be contained in the next release of elog.

Hi Stefan,

Is there a way to add a 'Tool Tips' to individual 'Options' similar to that currently available for Attributes? I have several checkboxes under an attribute for predefined email groups and would like to see if I can make the recipient list viewable via a mouse hover using the 'Tool tip' feature.
If not possible can it be added to the wishlist?

Ok, I implemented this. It is in revision 1760 and will be contained in the next release.

What will the configuration line be?

If you have

MOptions item = value_1, value_2

you can do a

Tooltip value_1 = text

Re: elog (2.6.1+r1642 ubuntu/debian) regularly becomes non-responsive (w/o crashing)

Peter Kovac wrote:

First, the problem. Fairly regularly (at least once a week, perhaps more), our elog daemon seems to quietly die. The process is still running but anyone attempting to access the server gets "connection refused." The elog log doesn't show anything and the apache logs just show "proxy: Error reading from remote server returned by [path]". Calling a daemon restart doesn't seem to kill the daemon -- I get a "could not bind to port" error. Using kill and then starting the daemon again fixes the problem for a few days and then we start over.

The particulars:
We are running elog on an Ubuntu (6.06 Dapper Drake LTS) web server.
It's currently version 2.6.1+r1642 pulled via apt-get from the Debian repositories.
elog is hiding behind an apache2+SSL proxy.

Any thoughts? Has anyone else seen this behavior? My next step is probably to compile 2.6.2 and remove the packaged flavor but I wanted to see if this was a known bug...

There are three reasons why an elog server can go into an infinite loop:

A bug which has been fixed in meantime. If you can give a try to 2.6.2-1750 or so that could help. I'm not sure if this version is already in the Debian distribution since I'm not the maintainer there.
A corrupted log file. If one of the YYMMDDa.log file get some garbage (maybe due to hard disk problems etc.) the elogd server can run into an infinite loop. In that case examine all log files to see if there is anything wrong. If so, edit it manually and restart elogd.
Some not yet found bug. One never can exclude this of course, but at this forum I have elogd running under similar conditions like you, and it runs for months without problems.
