Hello,

what are the pre-requisites to automatically fill the Author and Author Email fields. The documented method:

Subst Author = $long_name from $remote_host

Subst Email = $user_email

in the elogd.cfg file does not seem to work.

(I see it works here on this platform)

"Subst xxx" replaces after you submit an entry, while "Preset xxx" replaces before you create an entry. I believe you want the second one.

  69503   Tue Apr 12 08:55:55 2022 Question Gys Wuytsgys.wuyts@gmail.comQuestionWindows3.1.4 (latest)"User stamp" icon like Time Stamp in Body

Hello,

Is there a possibility to use like the time stamp a user stamp: by clicking the button in the main text entry it adds the username, just like the time stamp button does: Tue Apr 12 08:58:46 2022 ?

I searched but I'm not sure how this would be correctly named.

Thanks,

  1636   Fri Jan 27 20:40:00 2006 Question G. Vandemoortelegvdmoort@skynet.beQuestionLinux2.6.1 CVSRunning elog as ordinnary user
Hello,

I've configured elog with some commands running a shell :

Preset R-Date = $shell(/usr/bin/date +"%Y/%m/%d %H:%S")
; for testing :
Preset $text = $shell(whoami && set)
Preset $text = Some fixed text

That worked well when elog was started by root (and falling to user elog),
but later, I moved all the elog tree to /home/my_name/.elog,
(I'd like to start it only when I'm logged, it's only for personnal data)
changed all the attributes/permissions ($chown -R my_name:my_group .elog)
and none of these commands still works ! I use the -x option to allow
shell substitution.

More surprisingly, even the fixed text doesn't work (???)

Any explanation ?

By the way, I also seen that it is necessary to set Usr and Grp to "elog"
via the config file even when it's started by root, because otherwise,
you always get the strings 'Falling back to default group "elog"' and
Falling back to default user "elog" in the output of the shell substitutions.

Regards,

Gauthier

First of all, you could use

Preset R-Date = $date

instead of the shell command. Secondly, the command

Preset $text = $shell(whoami && set)

is wrong. Replace it by

Preset text = $shell(whoami && set)

without the "$".


I'm sorry ; even with this correction, none of the preset strings created with
a substitution mechanism (shell or built-in) works when elogd is started as
ordinnary user. I've tried the same config file /home/gv/.elog/elogd.cfg :
port = 8080
Language = french
Main Tab = Accueil
Usr = gv
Grp = users
Logbook dir = /home/gv/.elog/logbooks

Started via root (# /usr/sbin/elogd -c /home/gv/.elog/elogd.cfg -x), it works,
but via "gv" ($ /usr/sbin/elogd -c /home/gv/.elog/elogd.cfg -x), it doesn't.
