We are using elog to allow users to enter their time spent on a project and we would like them to be able to see the entries that they themselves have
created but not the entries that other users have created.
Thanks,

In that case you have to make one logbook per user and restrict the access to it using the "Login user = ..." directive. |

Is there any way to send email notification of only the message and not the attachment. We get entries consisting of 10 MBs sometimes, and we would like to send only the message and not the attachment in the email notification. I tried restricting postfix to 1MB and using Email Format = 111 but with no success.

You have to use
Email Format = 47
to remove the attachments. The encoding is decimal, not binary, so you have to do 1+2+4+8+32.

Dear Stefan,
I tried Email Format =47 . still am having problems.
With Postfix limitation of 1MB elog is giving error message of 'Error sending Email via "<domain name>": 5.3.4 Error: message file too big
Without Postfix limitation, its sending email with the attachment.
Thanks

I guess you are modifying the wrong elogd.cfg file. Note that you have to send a HUP signal after you changed elgod.cfg for the daemon to re-read the file. Try modifying something else (like adding a new attribute) and see if the daemon sees the change. |

Adding a new attribute is working fine... Has it to do with the elog 2.6.3 version and also I downloaded from ubuntu's synaptic package.. Will the latest release of elog solves this problem???

I don't remember exactly when this feature was added, but it would well be that it was after 2.6.3, so upgrading would help.

I understand.
Thank you for the quick response. |

Thanks Stefan. Now I have installed 2.7.4 and the problem is solved. but am having another problem. Elog is giving the same error message if the logbook has more than 5 subscribers for email notification. Upto 5 subscribers it works fine. I am sure its not postfix problem as I am able to send to more than 5 addresses in pine. |

There is no limitation with 5 addresses in elog. What you can do however is to turn on debugging and watch the communication between elog and your SMTP server. To do so, start elogd interactively with the "-v" flag (='verbose'), send an message and watch the output. Maybe your SMTP server sends some error code to elogd. |

I am using Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition. It is up-to-date and a full legal version installed from a geniune MS disk (to put that notion out the way). I host a variety of webpages from this server through IIS6.0.
I am having an issue after installation of the ELOG software. I grabbed the newest version from this website and ran the executable. It installed fine (or appeared to do so).
Upon starting the ELOG server I receive the following error:
elogd.exe - Unable to Locate Component
This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
The file in question is part of an ancient Visual C distributeable. This distributeable for my purposes no longer appears to be available (as I am on .net 3.5). I am unsure of downloading the older runtime libraries from sites that are not microsoft's. I am curious as to how I could go about making elog execute. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

I didn't realize that MSCVR71.dll is kind of outphased. I will add it to future distributions. For the moment, you can download it from the elog server directly. |
