Re: Attribute and checkbox, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Sep 22 08:55:22 2006

Well, what we use for such kind of check lists is the following:
Use Preset test = file.txt where file.txt contains exactly the ASCII code you mentioned, like
[ job done] [ customer ] [ activity ] [ What should be done ]
[] BLA Check job1 Backup mail check
[] BLA1 Check job2 check error report
[] Bla2 Check job3 check MQ jobs
So one can put the "X" in the "[]" manually. I know, the individual lines are no real elog attributes, but it works nicely for some check lists. Drawback might be that a use can edit the whole text, but sometimes I find that's even a plus, since the user might add some comments. |

You can hand-write a HTML file which gets displayed after submission, but that's probably not what you want. Unfortunately there is no option to go back to the submit page, so you have to click New again. If you want to enter a bulk of data, you can also do a CSV import. Maybe that's easier for you. Just write a comma-separated-value file, and import it via "CSV Import".

The Duplicate command was made for that. Just select an entry which is close to your new one (might be the last one entered), and click Duplicate. This gets you to what you want. |

I noticed you have 1714, is that the latest binary or your compiled CVS release?

Try this one: http://midas/elog/download/windows/elog262-3.exe which is the most recent. |
Elog v2.6.2-1722 appears to have broken "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" option on Windows XP box, posted by Gregory M. Caughey on Wed Oct 11 11:37:03 2006

Hi Stefan!
Been running Elog-2.6.2-1714 successfully for a while and yesterday decided to download and experiment with the latest Elog-2.6.2-1722 build. I want to report a possible bug involving the "Suppress default" option when running build 2.6.2-1722 on a Windows XP laptop. I installed 2.6.2-1722 into a development folder and copied my current production 'elogd.cfg' file and other custom files to the development folder. Test postings produced the following results:
1.) The "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" option causes the [] Suppress Email notification to display or not display as expected.
2.) However, email notifications will be sent under all circumstances regardless of which parameter selected.
3.) Downgrading to Elog-2.6.2-1714 produces the expected behavior.
I am running Windows XP with all current upgrades and security patches and Internet Explorer 7 - version: 7.0.5700.6
Regards, Greg |

Thanks for reporting that problem. I just implemented Suppress email on edit and this could have had some side effect. I tried however to reproduce your problem and was not able to. Trying the "minimal" configuration file, the email notifications were suppressed if the check box was checked, or if Suppress default = 3. Can you check if it works with a minimal config file, and if yes, what option in your "full" config file causes this effect? |

OK, you're absolutely correct. When I run Elog-2.6.2-1722 with a minimal 'elogd.cfg' the "Suppress default [0|1|2|3]" flag does appear to behave as expected. Taking your advice I went through my local 'elogd.cfg' evaluating items to see where the problem starts and I found a problem. In my local config file I use conditional attributes to modify the "category" and "type" fields (in the posting form) and here is what I'm finding wrong. For this example I have set "Suppress default = 3" and the following actions take place:
1.) Select "New" to begin a post and the form displays correctly with NO "[] Suppress Email notification" checkbox showing.
2.) When selecting "Category" an choosing an appropriate menu item the form is then redrawn and now there is a problem, the "[] Suppress Email notification" checkbox is displaying. The checkbox does work correctly but the behavior I'm expecting is for no checkbox to display during the composition of this posting. Am I misunderstanding the behavior of the "Suppress default = 3" flag?
3.) Each of the other flag parameters appear to work as expected as used in the above example.
I have attached screenshots that demonstrate this behavior as well as a snippet of the 'elogd.cfg' file.
Hope this helps a little...
Thanks, Greg |
Error Sending Email, posted by Ibrahim Genc on Thu Oct 12 16:22:40 2006

I've set up all e-mail configuration but I get error message after submitting a message
verbose output is as follows: every parameter I used works in outlook express.
Another question is; Can I change the port number of the smtp server? Some servers use another port than 25.
Thanks so much.

Your verbose output seems to be only partial. I have modified the verbose output recently, so please update to a more recent version of elog. With 2.6.2-3 I get for example

This is of course without SMTP username. Our mail server does not support SMTP username, so I programmed this kind of "blindly".

All server I met so far were running on port 25, so I hardcoded this in elogd.c. You can change it in the source code at line 2119:
bind_addr.sin_port = htons((short) 25);
If more people ask for this, I can make it a parameter. |
