Hi Satyajit,
I think you've just answered your own question. There is no magic switch - as far as I know - that would change that behaviour.

Probably there are ways to achieve your desired behaviour (using mirror servers and synchronising the logbooks) but that would require a large effort and would make your installation a lot more complicated.

With kind regards, Andreas

Hi,

I tried without success. Logbook is not sharing, it is displaying only under one "Top Group" whereever it appears first.

I don't know if that works. Why don't you just try?

Hi,

I am currently trying to configuring elog top groups, which are supposed to separate from each other. However, I would like to have a common logbook that should be visible in each group. Is there a way to share logbooks among Top Groups for example

Top Group Electronics = Elec1, Elec_EEE, Ele2

Top Group Processing  = P_AA1, PPP2, Elec_EEE

Top Group Monitoring = Mon1, Mon2, Mon3, Mon4

Top Group Data = Data1, PPP2, Data2

I would like logbook to be viewed:

  • Electronics:
    • Elec1
    • Elec_EEE
    • Ele2
  • Processing:
    • P_AA1
    • PPP2
    • Elec_EEE
  • Monitoring:
    • Mon1
    • Mon2
    • Mon3
    • Mon4
  • Data:
    • Data1
    • PPP2
    • Data2
    • Mon3
    • Mon4

Could you please suggest me if it is possible to set in this way (Color codes t show the common sharing).

Many thanks and regards,

satyajit

I've quickly checked: there are a couple more commands in the source code that are not language encoded. I guess some of them needs correction.

> egrep -n "cmd=[A-Za-z]" elogd.c
10293:   rsprintf("    r.open('GET', '?jcmd=Unlock&edit_id=%d', true);\n", message_id);
11784:                      ("<label for=\"ELCode\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"?cmd=HelpELCode\">ELCode</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</label>\n");
13663:                                "\r\n%s URL         : %s?cmd=Config&cfg_user=%s&unm=%s\r\n", loc("Logbook"),
14562:      redirect(lbs, "?cmd=Config");
14625:      sprintf(str, "../%s/?cmd=Config", getparam("lbname"));
14678:      sprintf(str, "../%s/?cmd=Config", lbn);
15703:   combine_url(lbs, host, "?cmd=GetMD5", url, sizeof(url), &ssl);
16378:         strcat(str, "?cmd=GetConfig"); // request complete config file
16380:         strcat(str, "?cmd=Download");  // request config section of logbook
16570:      strcat(str, "?cmd=GetPwdFile");   // request password file
17575:            rsprintf("<br><b><a href=\"../%s/?cmd=Synchronize&confirm=1\">", lbs->name_enc);
17577:            rsprintf("<br><b><a href=\"%s/?cmd=Synchronize&confirm=1\">", lbs->name_enc);
17579:            rsprintf("<br><b><a href=\"../%s/?cmd=Synchronize&confirm=1\">", lbs->name_enc);
18959:   if (strstr(ref, "cmd=Search&"))
18960:      strlcpy(strstr(ref, "cmd=Search&"), strstr(ref, "cmd=Search&") + 11, sizeof(str));
26728:         rsprintf("<a href=\"?cmd=Synchronize\">%s</a></td>\n", loc("Synchronize all logbooks"));

Hi Stefan,

when one creates a new entry, and a draft entry exists for the logbook, then a menu appears (see attachment).
If one select "Neuen Eintrag anlegen" then it should ignore the draft and create a new entry.
This feat is done by adding a "&ignore=1" to the "new" command: "<URL>/?cmd=New&ignore=1".
The problem is, that it should not be "cmd=New&..." but "cmd=Neu", since the commands are part of the translation.
Due to this, no new entry can be created as long as a draft exists; at least not in any language other than english.
This problem apparently existed since the beginning of drafts, but it only created problems at our site recently.
Kind Regards
Andreas

PS: Here's a patch that works:

diff  elogd.c elogd.c-orig
9575,9576c9575,9576
<    rsprintf("<input type=button value=\"%s\" onClick=\"window.location.href='?cmd=%s&ignore=1';\">\n", loc("Create new entry"),
<             loc("New"));
---
>    rsprintf("<input type=button value=\"%s\" onClick=\"window.location.href='%s';\">\n", loc("Create new entry"),
>             "?cmd=New&ignore=1");

Isn't that list in the message text rather than as an attribute value?

Sorry, I misread your question. Only following HTML tags are allowed in attributes:

<a>
<img>
<b>
<i>
<p>
<br>
<hr>

This is for some internal reason. Probably you can mimick <ul> with bullets and <p> tags.

Hi Stefano,

I think your assessment is correct: it is not possible to hide a logbook based on your read/write privileges.
And I'm not even sure that this would make much sense: at least you need to be able to get to the login page of the logbook.
But if you don't have read privileges for a logbook, you'll be automatically redirected to the login page, as soon as you select this logbook.

Kind Regards, Andreas

Hello, I read carefully the manual, but I didn't find a way to hide the logbooks in the logbook bar and in the initial logbook selection for which the user does not have the access. So, if a user1 does not have the access to a specific logbook, user1 is not able to see that logbook in the bar and neither in the initial logbook selection. How can I do this without using the top groups?

Just an update: I've re-compiled, reinstalled and restarted elogd for other reasons and now the corrupted strings are all gone. Everthing looks fine now.

But I never worry when a problem goes away before I could understand it: I'm confident that I will have plenty of time later, when the problem magically re-appears - likely I'll be called on a Friday night :-)

Hi Stefan,

since recently (a few weeks) ELOG confuses the language translations.
Individual language strings are translated into garbage; most other strings are fine.
Currently I see the string "please select" translated into "ressed" (see attached picture), instead of what's written correctly in the language file "bitte auswählen".
But with every restart the corrupted strings vary: other strings are affected and other garbage strings are shown - some of them unreadable binary code (see Attachment 2).
I have the same version running in English: I see no problems there.
Kind regards

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

many thanks for your answer. I partially agree with you, because sometimes "for privacy" of my working group I don't want that other users (external users) know the existance of the other logbooks.

Do you think that will be implemented in future?

Best regards, Stefano
