Sorry for the novice question, but can anyone tell me where the ".txt" document is suppose to reside for the "Preset text" statement to find it? I have a "test.txt" document in the "Template" file but all "Preset text = test.txt" does is print "test.txt" in the comment section.

Thanks,  Mike

I always chose the safe solution: I provide the full path to the document. For example (under Linux):

Preset text = /usr/local/elog/logbooks/inc/test.txt

Elog V2.9.1-2435 if it matters. 

It is time again to install the certs for SSL in Elog, and the standard openssl command line does not seem to produce the files that I need in order to get it working on my system.

I copied the file to my trusty linux server and ran the command "openssl pkcs12 -in cert.p12 -clcerts -out cert.pem " as I did last time, last time I got a nice little .crt and .key file.. this time.. no such luck.. I can get by with the guys just hitting the continue and go past the expired cert notice for a bit.. but if I cannot fix it reasonably soon.. well, it won't be pretty for me.. <grin>

Any ideas that anyone can give will be appreciated.. this is a bit outside my usual duties around here..

I'm not an expert in this field, but I think openssl is not meant to create a certificate for you, it is meant to create a certificate request form (CSR) and then you buy the certificate with that form from a vendor. Once you have the certificate then you just need to copy it to the right place for ELOG (or Apache) to use it, you don't need openssl for that.

You can have a look at: http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/generate-a-csr-with-openssl

Good luck!

 

PS: This is of course an openssl question: another forum could may be more helpful?

 Hi all,

I would like to create a new entry remotely.

I would like that when the macro run, the macro automatically create a new entry in my Elog.

I was searching, but i don't saw any thing about this.

Is possible to do a new entry remotely?

 

Thanks for all.

Use the "elog" command line utility as described here under tips & tricks: http://midas.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html

Any ideas how to fix this? I'm not sure if this is a problem with the elog / Ubuntu / Image Magick?


What happens if you execute the command manually, like

$ identify -format '%wx%h %c' '/home/elog/elog-2.9.2/logbooks/HardwareLog/140218_120423_2014-02-18_remod_(extended_II).png.png

The "identify" command just checks the size in pixels of your image and expects something like 800x600. Let me know if this command returns something completely different.

Sorry for very late reply. I recently rebuilt our server. Elog 2-9-2, new machine, new OS (Ubuntu 14.04), new version of ImageMagick (6.7.7-10), but I'm having the same unresolved problem. identify -format from the command line returns 645x860 (as it should). Any ideas?

  67688   Wed Jun 11 19:18:06 2014 Question Chuck Brostbrost_chuck@solarturbines.comBug reportWindows2.9.1-2435Strange Error, Service hangs when record is deleted.

I have 4 services running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 machines, 4 separate logs, only one of them is doing this, but that could be because only one of them is trying to delete records once they are posted, I cannot say.

On that one log, everything runs fine until they try to delete a record, and they are doing it under the admin login, but the service hangs.  anyone trying to log in get the 404 error that the page is not available.  to clear it I have to open Manage/Services and then Task Manager.  First I kill the process for that log book, then I can restart the service and everything is back.. trying to stop the service and then start it, or just restart the service, this does no good, in fact, it will hang at stopping the service.. it is not responding at all.  this happened to the same log when I had this on the original Windows Server 2003, so it is not new.. they just don't delete things for a long time, then they seem to do it every week, more than once.. and usually at night or on the weekend. (are they just doing it to mess with me?  Maybe, but I do not think so since it would not get me in trouble if I were busy, out of town or just not home and could not get to it until the next business day and they know this..

Any ideas what could cause this?
