Hi,
Is it possible to have a default filtered view in E-log?
Lets say we have a record with status finished on one attribute.
Is it possible to have a default list view that just shows records with this status?
|
Sure. Lets assume you have a "Status" attribute, which can be "open" and "finished", then you need
Options Status = open, finished
Quick Filter = Status
Start page = ?Status=open
The quick filter gives you a drop-down box where you can switch quickly between "open" and "finished", while the "Start page" automatically filters for "open".
|
OK, Thanks!
Is it possible to use Start Page with more than one parameter?
For instance if I want to filter on two filter options at the same time, like Status= Open and Status=Ongoing
|
Start page = ?Status=Open|Ongoing

Ron Beekman wrote: |
Hello,
We use ELOG for many years and enjoy it's functions every day!
Lately, we see errors whenever we add an entry in elog: 554 MailTransferAgentServer ESMTP not accepting messages
We see this from various ELOG servers. Other (non ELOG) servers using the same MailTransferAgentServer do not heve this error.
We are able to send mail messages from the ELOG machines manually via TELNET. So, from a functional point of view, all works well.
We had this error in the past and found out that the cause of this error lies in (network) time-outs.
Questions:
1) Has anyone seen this error before?
2) Is it possible to increase the timeout value used by ELOG?
3) Are the emails that could not be sent stored in a queue/resent later or are they lost?
4) is there a fix?
Any replies are highly appreciated!
T I A !

Could you run elogd interactively with the "-v" flag to log the communication between elogd and the ESMTP server and send me the traffic log? |

Hi all,
I'm absolutely new with ELOG and have only basic programming skills...
I'd like to use ELOG, so I have installed it in my computer to start playing with it (I installed version 2.7.0-1953 because with the latest one I got an error with the elogd.cfg file). I've been able to open the Demo logbook but wasn't able to submit a new entry into it. I get the following error:
"HTML encoding not allowed"
Could you please explain me how I could solve this problem?
I thank you in advance for your help.

Version 2.7.0 is very old and has knows problem. Better go with the current version and fix the problem with the elogd.cfg file. |

Here is my logbook config:

Options Category = Emergency, General, Change-Over, Other
Options Shift = 1, 2, 3
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = Maint Log - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Quick filter = Date, Type, Category

I don't see any mistake in the configuration file. Did you switch the "Encoding" from HTML to plain? (Radio buttons at the bottom just below the text window). Is there a problem with your FCKEditor? Do you see the formatting menu bar? |

Hi all,
I am trying to set up elog here at the University of Minnesota. It looks very promising for helping to manage a fairly complicated operation. I've got most of what I want set up without too much difficulty. However, I find that I'm having some difficulty to get it working properly with email.
In particular, I have my account set up to email me when log entries are made (subscribe to logbooks option is selected). In the global section of my elogd.conf file I have set up the variables:
SMTP host = factoryserver5
SMTP username = factory
However, when I make a test entry, I get an error at the top:
Error sending Email via <i>"factoryserver5"</i>: 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled
I tried setting the password using "elogd -t" but to no avail. I also tried a few different values for SMTP host
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?
Cheers,
Satish

There are several SMTP authorisation options, and only a subset is supported by ELOG. Have you tried without the "SMTP username"?

Hi there,
It seems that by default in a message created as "reply" of another message, the "quoted text" of the original entry is put at the _TOP_ of the new entry and not movable (Firefox 17, elog 2.92). I would strongly like to have it opposite, i.e. that one is able to create a new text first and only then has the "quoted text" since people are interested to see a new information and only then the previous messages as sort of "reminder". It was like this in older (2.6?) version but now I did not find how to change this default behavior. Did I miss something?
Cheers

I use plain encoding, cannot answer for the others but it should do the trick as it's in the documentation. I'm using Firefox some large number and 2.9.2.-2475
I do what I believe you want, and get it by having the following line in my config file for that logbook (which is part of elog.cfg):
Prepend on reply = \n
This gives a blank line at the "top" of the entries when you start a reply, and all the previous entries gain another "> " unless you've also altered that default behaviou (as in fact I have). The result then looks like:
Latest line of text
> Previous entry
> > Previous entry to that

Devin Bougie wrote: |
Hello,
Is there still a limit of 50 attachments per topic? If so, is there or could there be a parameter to change this setting?
Thanks,
Devin
|
The limit is defined in elogd.h:
#define MAX_ATTACHMENTS 50
I never thought that someone wants to have more than 50 attachments, since it will take forever to upload them. You can change the value on your own risk and recompile elogd. At some point you will run out of stack space, in which case elogd will crash, but you could increase the heap memory with a linker option. Just google for it.
Best,
Stefan

Hi,
I would like to make an hyperlink to an external file in a messaje. I have writen Allow (HTML = 1) in .cfg file and the hyperlink as
<p><a href="file:\\external_computer\directory">test</a></p>
It did not work. However if I write in the chrome browser:
file:\\external_computer\directory
It works.
Thank you so much!!

A link to a local file inside a web page does never work on purpose. Malicious web pages could otherwise get access to your local password file for example which would be a huge security hole. You have to copy the link address explicitly into your URL bar of the browser. |
