We have multiple LCDs at a console, and usually one is dedicated to displaying a browser

no one clicks on refresh, the ELog display becomes stale. Is there a method to have
the ELog reload every X minutes?

Thanks, Alan


The JavaScript is one possibility as Steve mentioned correctly. Another possibility is to use the RSS feed capability of ELOG. Use any RSS reader, and it will notify you immediately if there is a new entry in ELOG. Have a look at http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html and search for RSS on how to configure this.

Is there a way for user to unsubscribe from a logbook? Can a user delete their own account?


Yes. Yes.

Just click on "Config", and you will see a page where you can unsubscribe from each logbook and a button to remove your account.

Hi Stefan,

We have had problems with some users who subscribe for elog notifications using fake email addresses. When this happens, e-mail notifications stop working for all users and I have to find out which is the problematic email address and fix it myself. Is this a known problem? Is there a fix in a version newer than 2.6.1?

Thanks,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

in fact I have the same problem here with the forum. So far I did not find a clever solution, but I have some thought on how to minimize it:

  • Do the self registration by sending a key to the registered email address. Only by using that key the account can be activated. This way at least on ensures a proper email address initially. There are however ways to temporaryly generate email accounts, which kind of bypasses this system. Furthermore, if an email address becomes invalid because the domain is switched off, this does not help.
  • Email at least an error notification to the admin in case of failure.

You would say "why not removing the invalid email address"? Well that's kind of hard, since I send the email notification to all recipients in one email. Therefor I cannot figure out which is the offending email address. If I would send the emails separately to everyone, this can easily take minutes, which in turn would block the email server for that time. A solution would be a multithreaded server, which in fact is planned, but will not come so soon. If you come up with another clever solution please let me know.

I thought also about that, but people who are use to bulletin boards or instant messaging have the common knowledge that a ;) gives a smiley, not a \;). While it would work with the smiley button, which could insert anything, the "other" half of the people who are used to the standard smileys would complain. So I hope that ?-) is acceptable by both sides.
  2007   Thu Oct 19 11:45:18 2006 Question Alexandre Lindotealex@lipc.fis.uc.ptQuestionLinux2.6.2-1699How to pass attachment names to an Execute line?
Hi,

I'm trying to pass the name of an attachment in a "Execute new " line, but I can't seem to get the correct syntax...
I've tried:
Execute new = echo "New document with reference $Internal Ref with the name $attachements " >> /home/zeplin3/lixo.log
Execute new = echo "New document with reference $Internal Ref with the name $attachements1 " >> /home/zeplin3/lixo.log
Execute new = echo "New document with reference $Internal Ref with the name $1 " >> /home/zeplin3/lixo.log

but nothing seem to work. If I remove the $attachments bit the output is correct...
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Alex

Sorry there was a type in the documentation. You should write

$attachments

and not

$attachements

then it will work.
