Hi Andreas. 

It seems I didn't fully understand the comment by Stefan when he said "Have you tried to connect directly to elogd and not going through Apache?". My bad.

Now you've totally lost me.

elogd is a web service. You connect to it with a web browser. You don't pass arguments at startup of the service that refers to specific atrributes. I have no idea what you intend to do, you need to explain a lot more.

Hi Andreas,

I realize from your response that my question was not clear. I was not asking how to get it. Note that I am just a regular user, I am not the administrator of the service.

My question was about how to use it. From the man page, or from the explanation in the Administration Guide, it is not clear to me how to pass the same arguments I have been trying for /usr/bin/elog. For example, how to pass the list of attributes. I don't see a "-a" option for elogd. 

Thanks.

It is the default. If you install ELOG on your PC and run it, then every access will be directly to the ELOG web service. If you want to have Apache inbetween, it is some extra effort.

Nope. How? Is it documented?

Thanks for the comments. I will pass them to the admins.

You can manually modify the CSS style to adjust column widths. Locate elog.css which resides under elog/themes/default/elog.css, then find the class “.listtitle”, and modify the line

width: 0%;

to something like

width: 10%;

you can play with the width until it suits your needs. After each change, you have to reload the page in the browser to see the effect.

If you only want to change the width of a specific column, add following lines to your elog.css:

.listtitle:nth-child(4) {
  width:30%;
}

where ‘4” is for example the 4th column. You can have several of these statements for different columns.

To hide the text, use the option 'summary lines' as described in the manual.

Hi!

Is it possible to manage the column widths on a logbook's summary page one by one?
Also, is it possible to hide the Text column without actually hiding the text body in entries (as Show Text = 0 in elog.cfg does)?

Kind regards,
Mariia

Looks like you don't have shared libraries correctly configured on your system. Try "ldconfig" on your system or link elogd statically (google how to do that).

Hello,

I try to start elog at Ubuntu 18.04. When I run sudo /usr/local/sbin/elogd -D -c /usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg I get following error:
/usr/lib/libssl.so.10: version `libssl.so.10' not found (required by /usr/local/sbin/elogd)

I checked following:
ls -l /usr/lib/libssl.so.10

What's going wrong? And how to solve the problem?

Best,

sudo ldconfig didn't solve the problem


Is there any other solution than elog static linking?

As you can see, on this forum the author for replies is correct. This is done via the config option:

Preset on reply Author = $long_name

Jan Just Keijser wrote:

what is the default value for "Author" when replying to a log entry ?  I now see that for each reply to a log entry, the value of "Author" is set to the value of the author of the original entry - this makes it very hard to see which user has replied to a particular log entry, especially when users start replying to replies etc.

This is with elog 3.1.4-3 on CentOS 7

downloading the sources and building them on the target system solved the problem
