Enabling SSL, posted by Pasti on Fri May 18 08:04:37 2018
|
Hi all,
I'm following config guide and so far so good. The only issue I run into is when enabling SSL.
Guide says - One can replace this certificate and key with a real certificate to avoid browser pop-up windows warning about the self-signed certificate. |

This comes from the openSSL library which elog includes. I tried myelf and found that a chained certificate is not correctly interpreted by the openSSL
library. Most people anyhow don't use SSL inside elog, but run an Apache server in front of elog. This is anyhow better since Apache has an industry-strength
security with regular updates. Much better than relying on OpenSSL. |

Report Generating Tool?, posted by Hal Goldfarb on Mon May 21 09:41:57 2018
|
Has anyone developed a report tool for elog? I would like to be able to sort certain items and send them to either a printer, or an email (external
to my own use).
If not, any ideas on an easy means of doing this? I write a lot of Perl, so that would be an option for me if the text is easily obtained. |

Switch to the "summary" display (try it with this forum). You get headers (like "category"). Clicking on it sorts by that attribute.
Then display "all" entries, or use the "find" option to search in certain time periods, then just print the web page.
Alternatively, expeort logbook entries as CSV files, load them into a spreadsheet program, and do the sorting and printing there. |

I don't see an "export" option in the documentation, only "import." Printing the web page is probably not what I want.

Click on "Find", select "Export to CSV", optionally select filter criteria, then press "Search".

Here's a little example for a query for this logbook:
curl -f -s -k "https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?jcmd=Search&mode=CSV1&last=7&Category=^Question%24"

can easily process this output with perl, to create reports. I use it for example to create counts for specific enties, like "Bug reports" that |

elogd service crashes after windows update, posted by Tom Roberts on Fri May 18 00:57:33 2018
|
We have been using elog on Windows 10 for a long time. Today, after a Windows update, the elogd service started crashing (error 1067, unexpected termination).
It ran fine just before the Windows update (which took > 1 hour, so it was a major one). Uninstalling and re-installing did not help, including replacing
my elogd.cfg with the default. Installing on another PC (that also has this update) fails in the same way. I have a good backup of my logbook. |
about shiftcheck, posted by Xuan Wu on Tue May 15 04:41:23 2018

Hi all,
I try to implement a shift check list for our facility. The attributes called "a1, a2, b1, b2 etc" are used in original shiftcheck.html，
However, we would like to use "1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2 etc". So I try to change the name of checkbox in shiftcheck.html and the attributes in |

Re: about shiftcheck, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue May 15 10:35:32 2018

An attribute is similar to a variable. Do you know any programming language that allows to start a variable with a digit? I don't.
The solution is very obvious: start your attributes with a letter.
Cheers, Andreas |

That's true. Thanks for your explanation.

Elog ID entry bug at >99999 entries, posted by Joseph McKenna on Fri May 4 14:43:35 2018

We have a possible bug with elog that the ID for an elog entry at over 99,999 entires reads as 10,000...
68792/1 Illistrates the problem, we use this ID often to cross reference from out datalog...
Is this a know bug we can find a fix for? We are using: elogd 2.9.2 built Jul 14 2015, 18:58:06 revision |

I am not sure I understand your bug report.
I can easily create IDs greater than 100'000 (see attached picture), but that is not your problem, or is it?
Cheers, Andreas |

Hi Andreas, I'm working on the same experiment as Joseph who submitted the bug report.
You are right, IDs greater than 10^5 are created no problem. The issue is with the internal elog link, in this case of the form elog:SequencerEvents/XXXXX
The link generated uses only the first 5 digits of the message ID, and therefore links to the wrong message. In the two attachments you can see our sequencer |

Re: Elog ID entry bug at >99999 entries, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Sat May 5 20:55:23 2018

Well, in my example the ID link worked just fine.
There could be a string length limitation, but it could be as well the way you are creating the ID that is the source of the problem: I would
need the part of your elogd.cfg that defines how you format your ID in order to try to reproduce your problem. |

Re: Elog ID entry bug at >99999 entries, posted by Chris Rasmussen on Mon May 7 18:10:20 2018

ah yes, that was a helpful clue. Our elogd.cfg file led me to a .js file which redefines the ID to the elog:SequencerEvents/XXXXX
format and it indeed had a silly hard coded length of that string.
Since I am pretty sure this is our code, I think it is safe to say that this is not a bug in the elog |

Thank you all for your kind responses. Please consider this thread resolved: no bug in elog

As Andreas said we have to reproduce the problem. What is special in your case is the elog:SequencerEvents/XXXXX.
This is non-standard and must be created through your configuration of elog or by an external script. I just guess that you have something like
Preset ID = elog:SequencerEvents/##### |

MUST be set in the [global] section of your configuration - it will likely not work when you try to set it for a specific
logbook.
I don't see how ELOG can send an automatic email after a date expired. |

problem with chkeditor, posted by Andrea Mazzolari on Wed Apr 4 19:56:48 2018

Hi All,
I just installed elog latest version. I can see that my chkeditor (HTML encoding) is pretty simplified with respect to the version i can see
there. Why this ? For example, it does not offer the possibility to upload images. |

Yes, I can help with that: you've tried to put the picture into the text body. Try to make it a normal attachment, that'll work always.
