Thanks for pointing out this issue. This bug was introduced recently, when I tried to avoid the

Re: Re: Re: ...

in the subject line. I changed this now completely so that we can have

Preset on reply Author = $full_name
Preset on first reply Subject = Re: $Subject

which fixes both things. The modification is in revision 2271.

Thanks

Sort attributes = Status

1. is simple, just use conditional attributes like:

Attributes = Author, Type, Status, Revisions, Department
Options Type = ABD{1}, DEF{2}
Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions
{1}Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions, Department
{2}Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions

2. is more complicated. Have a look at FAQ # 11. Try something like:

Options Status = New, Under progress, Closed
Subst Revisions = $date status $status
Subst on Edit Revisions = $Revisions<br>$date status $status

But when testing this, I realized that there is a bug in elog and the subsitution is done before the submission, not after. I fixed that in SVN revision 2263, so it will be contained in the next Windows release.
 

 Hello,

i tried

Options Status = New, Under progress, Closed
Subst Revisions = $date status $status
Subst on Edit Revisions = $Revisions<br>$date status $status

but it won't work. When I change the status i saw an information in the status bar of Internet Explorer like "Entry has changed" (Eintrag wurde verändert) but it is not written in the notes field. Or is it written to another field?  

Do I have to update first to the latest Windows Version? You wrote something about SVN revision 2263. When do you expect the windows version where this problem is fixed is available to download?

Thanks for the quick response. This works. I noticed that the Dates aren't descending, is there a way to have the dates descending while sorting Status?

Thanks again!

For this you need

Sort attributes = Status, Date

which however only works from version 2.7.8 on.

We are trying to track down an issue where elogd just stops, and I cannot seem to find a cause.

 

In the logs, I see:

Any thoughts?

 I need more information about that. Please have a look at Faq #19.

I upgraded 2.7.5 rev 2175 to 2.7.7 rev 2246 last Thursday. I tested it with several logbooks with no problems. However I received a rep[ort today that it was down. I discovered whenever I tried to open a logbook entitled "Equipment Reservation" in the folder "EquipmentReservations" Elog would crash. I checked the elog.log file with no entries in it other than showing when it was restarted. I backed up to 2.7.5 and had no porblems with the same logbook. I repeated the upgrade to 2.7.7 with the crash problem returning. I am now back on 2.7.5 with no problems.

 

I just decided to try 2.7.6 rev 2239 and had the same results as 2.7.7.

 

This is running under Win2K with SP4 as an automatic service on port 80.

 

I am also running Elog V2.7.4-2118 on a different port (8080) simultaneously with no problems.

 

If you wish I will send the elog.cfg file. Anything else I can do to help, please let me know.

I need to reproduce your problem. Therefore I need the configuration and the xxxxxxa.log file containing the offending entries. You can strip it down to the minimum needed to do the crash. 

 In the process of trying to reduce it to a minimum I discovered that the entry that appears to be causing the crash is this:


 

Sorry for the delay.

 

1: The offending log file.

 

 

I know it looks like I am totally inept. I apologize. Obviously I was in a hurry the last couple of posts.

 

Ok, let's try this again.

 

The offending log file:

 Hello,

it now works with the revisions. When do you expect that the new Windos version, which corrects the error you described, is available for download?
