UTC time, posted by Luca on Mon Jan 9 15:39:59 2017

Dear all,
I am trying to have the elog timestamp in UTC time instead of local time using the following config file but without success. Do you know what
I am doing wrong? |

How do you believe that you can preset a Submission item? Preset only works for attributes, so you have to define an attribute like "Submission
UTC" or similar and preset this attribute with
Preset Submission UTC = $utcdate |

Dear Steve,
thanks a lot. Sorry but I am not expert of elog. I "inherited" from a colleague and wanted to see if I can keep it alive but to do
it I would need to move to UTC. Should this command affect the "INSERT CURRENT TIME/DATE" button? It does not seem to change. |

Any suggestion?

The INSERT CURRENT TIME/DATE button is not affected by this setting.

Hi Luca,
if you want to change all datetime properties to UTC time, then you'll just need to set the timezone on the server to UTC, before elogd is
started. |
Limit number of characters for "login user" parameter string ?, posted by Christine Quicot on Tue Jan 10 09:59:30 2017
|
Hello all,
I use ELOG for about 30 users, and I've listed their email adresses in the "login user" parameter, using the LDAP authentication.
As I had problems with the users from the end of the list (they couldn't log in the logbooks) I guessed that there is a max length for the string |

Re: Limit number of characters for "login user" parameter string ?, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Jan 10 11:13:02 2017

There is a limit of 100 options per line, so you probably run against that. This is defined in elogd.h with MAX_N_LIST and MAX_N_ATTR. You can try to
increase these and recompile, but at some point you will hit the stack size limit of your operating system and elogd will crash.

Is it possible to add custom menu commands, posted by Alex Kühnel on Sun Jan 8 19:26:29 2017

hi forum,
my question, is it possible to add a custom menu entry (f.e. "Auswertung"). I will start a new php page and do some system code starting
from the new page. I have attached a pic of my "Bereitschaftsdoku". |

Re: Is it possible to add custom menu commands, posted by Stefan Ritt on Mon Jan 9 11:00:53 2017

No, calculations are not easily possible with elog. You can write some Javascript code to pull out all minutes, add them up and manipulate the DOM tree
to show the results, but this requires some JavaScript knowlegde. Alternatively, export your table to a CSV file and do your calculations with a spreadhseet
program. |

How to make two attributes reacting with each other, posted by Xuan Wu on Thu Jan 5 12:55:05 2017

Hi all,
I have two attributes defined like following

You can do that with conditional attributes (see documentation):

Sorry for my carelessness. What you said is definitely right. I just wonder how can Icon and Catagory change simultaneously whatever which one be selected
first.

If you select a (different) category, the current icon setting simply gets overwritten, what ever it was before.

What I mean is that, when I select a catagory, the icon will change. If I change the icon, I need the catagory change too.

IOptions does not support conditional attributes.
I think the proper solution would be to remove the icon selection field from the input form:

So, as far as I know that ROptions and IOptions doesn't support conditional attributes.
I think what you suggest is a nice idea. An alternative way is putting Category attribute before Icon attribute and adding a tooltip
to Icon attribute. However, I think your advice is better. Thanks! |

elogd crashes during Find and Mirror operations under MacOS, posted by Andreas Warburton on Sat Dec 24 10:40:00 2016

When installing ELOG 3.1.2 on my Mac Sierra (10.12.2) with the latest XCode 8.2.1, it seemed to install fine but for one warning when building elogd:

I have no experience with ELOG on OSX, therefore I can only give very vague and indirect support (sorry).
I suggest that you first try
an installation without actual logbook data (just move it to a save place for a while). Does a "find" still crash elogd?
If elogd
is still crashing, you should prune your configuration until it stops crashing. Submit the smallest config here that still crashes the logbook.

The current GIT revision (c017d07) fixes the problem with
the strlcpy() function (macOS 10.12.2, XCode 8.2). Can you try if that fixes your other problems, too?
Plese remember to use the recursive clone to get that version: |

Thank you very much (both Andreas and Stefan)! The build now runs without warnings, and I am now able to do Find operations without crashes. I
still am having some issues with the synchronization, but I suspect that this is elog-content related, so will in the coming days do some more testing
from CERN (where I have higher bandwidth with my home institution in Canada). Incidentally, I had to add a line to Makefile in order to be able to |

Ah, thanks for telling me. I added that to the Makefile. I did not need this because I had in my .profiel following line
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/local/include
which I need also for other macports-based projects. But having this twice does not hurt. |

Gmail email smtp settings, posted by Devrim Esenturk on Mon Jan 2 16:32:18 2017

Hi all
I am trying to send email via Gmail smtp with no success. Elog uses port 25 which is not allowed. I need to use 587 or 465 ports to send mail.
How can I change the port? |

Elog source code giving errors when compiling about missing header files, posted by rahul bhandari on Wed Dec 21 20:15:19 2016
|
I downloaded the source code from the git repository which contained the new fix that was made for the missing username-crash error. I tried compiling
the elogd.c file using a GCC compiler and it gave an error about missing header files. It first gave an error about netdb.h file and when I commented that
header file call, it gave further errors for other header files. I do not really understand why it gives an error about that. |
|
Re: Elog source code giving errors when compiling about missing header files, posted by Stefan Ritt on Thu Dec 22 09:41:35 2016

You need the netdb.h header file to compile elog. I see that you compile under Windows. You have to make sure that your compiler installation comes with
all header files. The netdb.h file is usually in /usr/include under Unix.

Hello Stefan, thanks for your answer. So I made a new logbook, without entries. I generated, as you, two new entries and I discover that this problem
come out when in the URL the command for the sorting follow the command of the display mode. So for example the following URL give me the issue:

Was tricky. In my development environment (XCode) it worked fine. Only when I compiled elogd under Sierra on the command line, the probelm occured.
That's why I did not see it earlier. It has to do with some functions Apple apparently changed ("strlcpy"). These function now have a new |

Hi Stefano.
This may or may not have anything to do with your specific problem but I notice you have the single word "date" as part of your
attribute name and Date is actually a reserved word in Elog. Although your attribute is not exclusively called "date" I have found that |
