Email Notification (Not) Initiated by elog Client Utility, posted by Phil Rubin on Fri Jul 14 19:26:06 2017
|
Our configuration sends out e-mail notifications based on a hierarchy of attributes, and works fine with WEB submissions, but not with client utility
submissions (no notifications are sent; the log doesn't show it even trying to send any: 14-Jul-2017 18:36:01 [rubinp@nn.nn.nn.nn] {Notebook}
NEW entry #0) . Since notification is the default (suppression requires -x), I presume there is something wrong with the way we're going about |

Yes, parentheses in field content might be difficult to pass from a shell command. You did not even mention which Linux shell you are using and you did
not show the actual elog command. Maybe you want to add that information?

Thank you for responding.
I thought I provided the command at the end of the note:
/usr/local/bin/elog -h host -p port -l Notebook -u user passwd -a Author="Author" -a Type=Type -a Category=Category -a Subject="subject" |

If that is your command then it is obvious why no email is send:
you do set "Type=Type", but only for "Type=Problem(s)" and "Category=TDAQ" you would send an email.
Instead of writing "-h host" you should as well define the actual hostname, like "-h midas.psi.ch", likewise for all other |

I didn't realize you required every detail of the command, since the entry is being logged, but here is an example (only the user information is
blanked out):
/usr/local/bin/elog -h vmna62s1 -p 8080 -l NA62Logbook -u xxxx xxxx -a Author=Rubin -a Type=Problem\(s\) -a Category=Elog -a Subject="Client |

Okay, I can confirm that this does not work. It is likely related to the disclaimer in the ELOG documentation (https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#conditional)
Conditional attributes are usually only used for change items in the entry form.
I guess that the "Email" command never worked with conditional attributes. I use the "Email" command and conditional attributes |
Weird behaviour of category filter, posted by Daniel Sajdyk on Fri Jul 14 13:18:30 2017 
|
Hello.
Today I noticed that when I use category filter in the top, right of Elog I got different results, that depends on that if I select Category
and Subcategory or just Subcategory option. |

Hi Daniel,
I agree: it should. And it does in my case; it works perfectly fine for my logbooks. Maybe you should have a closer look for special characters
in you configuration? Otherwise I don't know why it does not work for you. |
Virus in latest elog?, posted by Daniel Sajdyk on Fri Jul 14 13:11:48 2017
|
Hello.
Today I wanted to download latest elog version, and got information from Eset Endpoint Antyvirus, that downloaded file has trojan horse "Generic.GQWFFXB".
It this false positive alarm? |

Hi Daniel,
you're the first one reporting about this virus. We have different virus checkers here at our lab and none of them triggered. So I guess
it is a false alarm. |
Server dropping SSL connection while uploading large files, posted by Erkcan Ozcan on Sat Jun 10 07:05:24 2017

Hi,
I am having trouble with uploading large (>0.5MB) files to elog. We click on upload and in a couple of seconds, the webbrowser complains that
the server has dropped the connection. |

Hi,
Could someone at least suggest how I could debug this problem myself? If I know where to start, perhaps I can fix it myself and contribute to
the software. |

Hi Erkcan,
I observed similar behaviours when attempting to do SSL uploads and mirroring over a WAN (see some of my recent posts). Having not received
any responses/help, and no time to try debugging the source myself, I've changed the way I use ELOG such that my attachment uploads are always local |
Re: Server dropping SSL connection while uploading large files, posted by Stefan Ritt on Thu Jun 29 08:36:03 2017

One possibility is to run elog in non-SSL mode and put an Apache server in front of it. The Apache server can then do the SSL communication, and forward
all requests to elog in plain text (non-SSL). This has been proven to work with large attachments, actually that's the way I use it.
I didn't find time to debug the SSL problem. If anybody is interested in doing so, the relevant code is in function server_loop() around |

I have an elog server which uses apache/ldap for authentication.
I would like to have the username used for ldap to be set automatically as author field in the elog.
