Missing log files when rsync to replacement server., posted by VUIIS SysAdmin on Thu Jul 30 17:11:05 2020
|
I am moving from a Hyper-V host to a VMware host and created a new elog server. I installed the elog software and did an rsync to get the .cfg file and
logbooks to the new server.
rsync -av root@old.elog.server:/usr/local/elog /usr/local/ |

Start your new server interactively with "elogd -v 3" to see all verbose output. You will then see how it indexes all logbooks. If not, you
might have a wrong path in elogd.cfg

On the new server in the logbook that should have several 2020 entries it stops on the last entry of 2019.
On the old server after stopping elogd i get:
/usr/sbin/elogd -v 3 |

You can put your files where ever you want, just tell elogd where to find the elogd.cfg file via the "-c" flag. Then tell elogd where to find files
in the elogd.cfg file via the "Logbook dir" and "Resource dir" directives.

Thank-you. That is good information to have.
What is the default if you you do not specify anything in elogd.cfg? I assume it is /usr/local/elog otherwise it would not see the existing
logbooks. |

If nothing is specified elogd looks for logbooks in the current directory where it got started under ./logbooks/
No idea what happened to your 2020 logbook.

Expanding column width when viewing in Summary mode, posted by Illam Pakkirisamy on Thu Jul 16 23:29:15 2020

Hi,
I'm trying to expand the Subject column, when viewing in summary mode, and couldn't find any documentation for it. Is this possible
and if so, how would I do it. |

You can't directly change individual columns, but you can reduce the "Text" column. This is done in themes/default/elog.css. Search for
"listtitle2" and change or remove the line "width:100%". This makes the text column narrower, leaving more space for the subject column.

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your prompt follow up. I did try commenting of the width statement for listtitle2 and also reducing it to 40% but it did not
work. I restarted elogd daemon and I don't see the columns changing. I also tried putting a percentage number (40%) for listtitle1 just |

Anyone who knows me knows I (ab)use elog a lot. And this one is another of a long list of cheats and work arounds rather than modifying the
code properly.
In summary mode, the top row are titles, and if they are long, they will dominate the width of that column. Similarly if they are short, |

I can think of two reasons why you don't see a change:
1) You modified the wrong file. The elog.css file is under elog/themes/default/elog.css. If you "install" elog, it might go into your
installation directory. So check if you have more than one file with this name. |

Hi Stefan,
I have only one elog.css file in the default directory and the installation path is the same one that I'm using. Basically, I'm using
off of the installed path. I also tried, modifying the file and calling it elog_mod.css and then specified CSS=<path>/elog_mod.css and started |

How to change name of record Id from $@MID@$., posted by John on Wed Jul 22 18:11:56 2020

Hi Everyone,
I tried using this $@MID@$ in JS as a variable and cannot doit. I researched a little and found no answer on special character usage. If anyone
knows, please lemme know. I also tried breifly in Elogd to change it to something like just MID, but need a better editor as (Kate) is not saving |

Re: How to change name of record Id from $@MID@$., posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Jul 22 19:10:08 2020

No idea what you are talking about. $@MID@$ is used in the database files to indicate the start of a new message. It is not used on any elog web page.
If you want to put the message ID on your web page, you should use the variable "$message id" as written in the documentation. You say JS, where
is your JS running? You wrote a JS program to work on the raw elog database files? Or you wrote an extension to run in your browse? You have to be a bit |

Re: change Cell Style, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue Jun 30 17:12:10 2020

You should edit the CSS style file: /usr/local/elog/themes/default/elog.css
Just change all fields "background-color:" to your desired color; e.g. "#FFFFFF" for white.

How to do the last update with out losing any data ? |

Re: Update, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue Jun 30 17:15:18 2020

When you update from a version 2.* to a version 3.* then all elog entry files will be moved in subfolder for each year. But non of the entries are
lost.
Only if you afterwards try to start an old version 2.* with the newly converted data directories, then the old version will not find
any of the entries.
I've updated the ELOG version many times now. The only data I once lost was a modified CSS style file and a "hand |
