HI,

Is there a way to export the ELOG entries to a file like Microsoft Word?
For ECSS-type documents for space missions, I have to report the data that we enter in the ELOG in a Manufacturing Report, foreseen for ECSS, in word format. It's possible to do it?
The data has to go into tables, inserted in the world file, called "as run procedure".
Is it possible to connect the elog to a report template so that it automatically generates the manufacturing report? Or link the tables placed in it so that they are automatically filled in?

Thank you so much
Manuela

Recently I have had problems with ELOG not accepting the certificates (in this case from https://letsencrypt.org/) probably due to the old version of the SSL library of the binary distribution for Windows.
I have tried to follow the instructions to set up ELOG to work with Apache but they are probably old.
I have a simple solution for the Apache installation of XAMPP, the example is for two separate logbooks using each its own ELOG service on the same server:

1. I have set up the two ELOG to run as http://my.server.example.com:8080/ and as http://my.server.example.com:8081/

2. in c:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf I have enabled the following (I am not sure if all the modules are really needed but this works for me):

LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so
LoadModule proxy_html_module modules/mod_proxy_html.so
LoadModule xml2enc_module modules/mod_xml2enc.so

3. still in c:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf, at the very end of the file I added the following:

ProxyRequests off

Redirect permanent /app1 https://my.server.example.com/app1/
ProxyPass /app1/ http://my.server.example.com:8080/
ProxyHTMLURLMap http://my.server.example.com:8080 /app1

Redirect permanent /app2 https://my.server.example.com/app2/
ProxyPass /app2/ http://my.server.example.com:8081/
ProxyHTMLURLMap http://my.server.example.com:8081 /app2

This way I can now connect to the two ELOG using https://my.server.example.com/app1/ and https://my.server.example.com/app2/ without troubles and no additional setting to either the configuration files of ELOG nor any need for virtual hosts, ...

I hope this might be of use.

Hi Illam,

You can find it in src/elogd.h, #define TEXT_SIZE  250000, the original value 250000, you can change it to a larger one like #define TEXT_SIZE    1000000. Then recompile it again, just need typing "make". Elog Version is 3.1.3 in my site. HTH.

Cheers,

Xuan Wu

Hi,

I'm getting the TEXTSIZE TOO BIG message every time I have more text in my entry.  I understand there is a way to increase the TEXTSIZE and re-compile.  Where can I find the TEXTSIZE parameter that I can increase and also how do I re-compile.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks.
Illam

 

 

  121   Fri Aug 16 22:56:44 2002 Idea eric wootenwootene@verizon.netInfo  self - registering - How It Works - or at least how i've gotten it to work
Create a blank text file (called mine passwd.txt)
Place the text file somewhere in the elog directory structure
(I placed mine in c:\elog\passwd.txt because i wanted to use it globally 
for all logbooks.  I believe this forum places it in \elog\logbooks\forum 
directory).

For the Elogd.cfg:

[Forum]
; general options
Password file = c:\elog\passwd.txt
Admin user = user1
Self register = 1
Theme = default

or

[global]
logbook tabs = 1
tab cellpadding = 2
SMTP host = smtp.host.net
URL = http://myelog
Password file = c:\elog\passwd.txt
Admin user = user1
Self register = 1


For the first time logging in, Click Login from the Forum Pages, then at 
the login screen, click Register as New User
Fill out all the appropriate information
example:

Login name: user1 (seems to be case sensative)
Full name: First User
Email:  user1@email.net
Automatic email notification:  (box checked)
Password:  password (seems to be case sensative)
Retype password:  password (seems to be case sensative)

Then click Save

If you open up the passwd.txt file you should see something like:

user1:cGFzc3dvcmQ=:First User:user1@email.net:all

Some other examples based on what info you provided during the 
registration:

user1::First User:user1@email.net:all   (password left blank)
user1:cGFzc3dvcmQ=:First User:user1@email.net (NO Auto email Notify)
user1::First User::all (password and email address left blank)

If you leave the Full Name blank then the logged in user will not be 
reflected correctly in the logbook.

Hope this helps.

Eric

Dear Andreas,

The same problem by using the shiftchecklist and the cfg in Stefan's mail. It report the no password file, even the absolute path wroten in cfg file.  The author field also failed to be read, it is shown as "?" in the page . Did there miss some other files?

Any suggestion is welcome. Thank you very much.

You might try to specify an absolute path to the password file in the configuration.

I would need a complete minimal configuration that creates that problem.

Hello Stefan,

I created a custom form with the example you provided. When I enter the Data and Submit the Form I get the error message "Datei passwordfile.xml kann nicht geöffnet werden: No such file or directory".  Posting stuff works in all other logbooks.  Only in the "logbook with the form" there seems to be an error. (or misconfiguration on my side)

sections from my conf. File:

[global]
Password file = passwordfile.xml

(...)

[ShiftCheck]
Comment = Shift Check List

Attributes = Hardware, Raith-Mitarbeiter, Rechnername, Rechnername-alt, Details, SN, AV-Nummer, System, Key, IT-Mitarbeiter, Erledigt_datum, Ausgemustert_datum
Quick filter = Shift, Author
Options Shift = Morning, Evening, Night

Enable attachments = 0
Show text = 0
Custom new form =forms\shiftcheck.html
Custom edit form = forms\shiftcheck.html
Custom display form = forms\shiftcheck.html
List after submit = 1

I tried copying the password file to the forms directory, the logbook directory, the ShiftCheck logbook directory and the elog root folder.  I always get the same error.  I tried entering the absolute path, there was no difference in the result.

When I disable the password file I am able to post without any problems.  Can you help me out?

Dear ELOG users,

starting with SVN revision 2328, custom input forms are implemented. This allows application specific formats for check lists etc. In our specific case we had to implement a shift check list, which was quite long. Furthermore the check list should be optimized for an iPad, which we take in the field and record various checks and readings (in our case some gas pressure gauges at the PSI particle accelerator). Since the standard ELOG interface was too inflexible, a completely hand-written form was needed. The form can be activated by the new configuration options Custom New Form, Custom Edit Form and Custom Display Form, one for a new entry, an entry to edit and and entry to display. In our case we used the same form for all three cases. This is how the shift check list looks under the Safari Browser on a PC:

Capture.png

And here is how it looks on the iPad:

IMAG0036.jpg

Each section can be collapsed and expanded (blue arrows at the left), and various internal checks are made before the check list can be submitted.

Implementing such forms is however more something for the advanced user, since you have to hand-write HTML with CSS and JavaScript code. It can then however be a powerful method for check lists. Please find in the attachments the elogd.cfg configuration for that logbook and the shiftcheck.html source code file. It is a bit complicated since the page is a static page, elogd just serves it from the file. This requires all the dynamic functions to be implemented inside the HTML file with JavaScript. To display an entry for example, the JavaScript loads the raw data with the "?cmd=Download" command and the populates the form fields. The collapsing and expanding is done by using CSS properties. The integrated style sheet was optimized for the rendering on an iPad. Rather large fonts were chosen so that the items can be checked easily with your finger tips. Various parameters are sent between the browser and the elogd program via hidden fields and cookies. So only something for experts! But if you go through the effort and hand-write the form, it can be very handy. Note that you have to upgrade to SVN revision 2328 for the three new options.
