Hi,

I am trying to install on MacOS Sierra. I believe that I have followed all the steps correctly, but the install is failing with the following error: 

Help appreciated!

Thanks,
Christina

If the older elog has some customized file such as logbooks, elogd.cfg, elog.css, images and so on,  What's the best way to update elog to newer release? Is it the only way to copy these files to the new release?

Oops!

I think that I must have skipped straight to the MacOS notes instead of reading the linux section properly.

Thanks for the help,

Christina

Just last week I've downloaded the latest version of ELOG, compiled and installed it, and the date picker just works fine.

In my case it was an update of an existing installation. Can you provide a bit more information about your case: I guess it was a first time installation? Was is ELOG V3.1.2-754330e or a different GIT version?

Stefan, could you please add an attribute of type "datetime" and "date" to one of the demo logbooks? Currently there is non. Maybe to elog:Database? Then we can check if it is a client problem.

Cheers, Andreas

Can I ask for some clarification; I would like to include code highlighting for some computational students who will be making use of ELOG. 

In the example you showed, my understanding is that you included a "Bottom text =... " entry in the forums elog config. This included the bare minimum remote call outlined by the highlightjs site. Can you clarify (as I'm having issues setting it up) should the "Bottom text=..." entry take this as a string, or should it be contained in a seperate html file in the same local directory as the cfg?

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
   // printf() displays the string inside quotation
   printf("C Programming");
   return 0;
}

I responded too quickly.

I already have openssl installed via macports (this is the "Mac version" of libssl-dev).

Does anyone know where exactly elog is looking for openssl/ssl.h? I have just updated Macports and upgraded to Sierra, so maybe it's been dumped it in a different location.

On Sierra Macports install openssl in /opt/local/include/ , but copy it into /usr/local/include. You should able to fix it.

sudo cp -r /opt/local/include/openssl /usr/local/include/

Hello,

I'm facing with a crash, which happen when I sort the entries by a datetime attribute (sort or rsort) and then i change the display mode from Full, Summary and Threaded.

For example, the elogd crashes when I try to connect from the Full display to Summary in sort mode. The issue presents for example by entering with the following URL:

http://host.name.com:8080/65+nm/?mode=summary&sort=Record+date

Can you please help me?

Here I reduced my elogd.cfg at minimum and I still get this issue:

[global]
port = 8080

[65 nm]
Attributes = Record date

Type Record date = datetime
Preset Record date = $date
List Display = Record date
Start page = ?sort=Record date
