Hello,

I've just set up an ELog server for my research group. (Running on Debian, package version 2.6.1+r1642-1)

I have a question about the email notifications. I read through the config file documentation, but couldn't find the answer (maybe I am just unobservant\?) Is it possible to have the email notifications contain only the title of the log entry (as well as the usual attributes), but not the full text or any attachments? I have users who are worried about their email going over quota from ELog's emails, but who nevertheless would like some kind of notification when new log entries are posted.

Thanks in advance!


Have a look at the option Email format = <n>


Ah, thank you! Somehow I overlooked that. My apologies, and thanks for your very fast response.

I would like to link the CMSROC ELOG at Fermilab:
http://nippon.fnal.gov:8081/
with the CMS ELOG at CERN:
https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/

I am the administrator of the former. I want to keep the CMSROC logbook content
local, but I would like to make a link to the CMS CERN logbook visible from
http://nippon.fnal.gov:8081/
and ideally to have it show up as a tab from any sub-page.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You can achieve that with the top text option, which lets you define some HTML code visible at every ELOG page. Just create a file, let's call it top.html, and put in following contents:
<table class="frame" cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
<tr><td class="tabs">
<span class="sltab"><a href="https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/" title="CMS ELOG at CERN">CMSDAQ</a></span>
</td></tr>
</table>

Then put following statement into your elogd.cfg:
Top text = top.html

That should do the job.
  1840   Thu May 25 19:41:51 2006 Idea Mark Bergmanmark.bergman@uphs.upenn.eduRequestLinux2.6.1add field type to automatically email CC
I've got logbooks where I'm submitting entries on behalf of other users, or where other people should be notified of the ticket. This isn't a fixed list of people, and shouldn't be hard-coded into a config file. I've got a field to enter the user's e-mail address, but there's no action associated with that data.

I'd like to see a new field type that allows the entry of e-mail addresses, where each addresses supplied with the logfile entry would be automatically "CC'ed" in the notification e-mail. Ideally, people on the CC list would be (optionally) CC'ed when there are replies or edits to the original elog entry.


For example (snippet of fictional elogd.cfg):

-------------------------------
[web site]
Welcome Title = Issues regarding the web site
MOptions Category = Add links, Change content, Broken Link, Other
CCMailTo = Notification List
Attributes = Author, Category, Severity, Subject, Entry ID, Status, User, Login
Extendable Attributes = Category, Severity, Subject, Status, User, Login, Notification List
Required Attributes = Category, Subject, Status, User
-------------------------------
  1843   Fri Jun 2 21:20:06 2006 Question Elaine Cristina Franchini dos Anjoselaine@ccuec.unicamp.brQuestionLinux2.6.1-1681Inserting images via Internet Explorer
Hi Stefan,

I observed that there is a difference between IE and others browsers.
When I use "insert image" button in Netscape, for instance,
it creates automatically a tag like
[IMG]elog:1/1[/IMG]
and
includes an attachment in the ELOG entry.

When a try to do the same action in Internet Explorer, only
the attachment is created without the tag
[IMG]elog:1/1[/IMG]
.

I did the same test using this forum, and the results are identical
that was related above.

Is it a bug or I'm doing something wrong ?

Thanks,

Elaine

I'm trying to set up an elog that uses a password file using the "Password file = /blah" directive as well as the "Hosts allow = myhost.mydomain" directive. I used the -v command and watched the messages and elogd is recognizing that I am connecting from an allowed host but the login page is still appearing. Is there a way to use both of these?
  1850   Wed Jun 21 22:11:15 2006 Entry Gerald Ebberinkg.h.p.ebberink@nclr.nlQuestionLinux2.6.1restrict access
Dear all,

I am trying to get elog used in our company but I need some help.
I have two small questions:

-1- how can I restrict the access 
of a certain user such that he can only see certain logbooks. 
But also not showing the other logbooks on the selection page.
So we could have a tree like this:

Stage one
|
|->Stage 2
       |
       |
      / \
     |   |
    Co1 Co2
    /     \
  job     job

So when Co1 logs in the should not be able to see Co2 and the attached job

-2- How can I have a login page instead of the logbook selection page.
When I insert the password statement the config, I get a blank page.

This can be achieved with the "Login user = ..." option.

You could try to use "top groups". This gives you "separate" groups of logbooks, so you could make a public tree
seen by everybody and private trees only seen by a few people. Please read the documentation for details.

You get a login page instead of the selection page if the "Password file = " statement is in the [global] section
and "Protect selection page = 1". You might have to delete all cookies in your browser if you move the password
file statement between the [global] and the logbook sections, because otherwise the old cookies might prevent you
from logging out.
