 | Chris Green | greenc@fnal.gov | Bug report | Linux | 2.6.0-CVS | Re: Top Groups, Show Top Groups, password file and Protect Selection page have nasty interaction |
| Stefan Ritt wrote: | One note I would like to make however: "Top groups" were invented for having completely separate logbook groups. Before the invention of top groups, one had to run several instances of elogd for different departments for example, where one department should not see the other department's logbooks. But having many departments means having to maintain many elogd daemons. This led to the invention of top groups, so one daemon can serve several independent groups, each having their own [global] section, with probably their own administrator.
In your case however, it would be more applicable not to use top groups, but use nested groups. Like
Group MiniBooNE = Analysis, Miscellaneous
Group Analysis = Charged Current Pi Plus, Neutral Current Coherent Pions
Group Miscellaneous = demo
I presume this is more what you want, and you can avoid some problems which arise from top groups.
|
The quick attempt I just made to use this doesn't do what I want, which is to require password protection for the Analysis logbook selection page. If you think that *is* possible and I just didn't configure it properly, I'd appreciate pointers. In the meantime though, your bug fixes appear to have solved my top group / password problem and I think I'll proceed with that for now.
Thanks again,
Chris. |

 | Chris Green | greenc@fnal.gov | Question | Linux | 2.6.0b4 | How does RSS interact with password protection? | Can I have an RSS feed to a protected log book? Does it also require authentication, or does it bypass it? If it bypasses it, how do I disable RSS?
Thanks,

 | Grant Jeffcote | grant@jeffcote.org | Question | Windows | | Conditional E-Mail Attributes | Stefen, is it possible to change an email option using conditional attributes?
I have a need under certain conditions to send an email in plain text (Encoding type 1) but as type 2 under other conditions, it seems when I do the conditional string is ignored and the global entry is used.
Can all email options be actioned using a conditional string, it only seems to work on some?
Shown here are some of the options that would be nice to set under 'conditions'.
Some appear to already work that way.
{2}Email attributes = xxx, xxy,
{2}Email All = dee@sdf.com, def@sdf.com,
{2}Preset text = This is a test
{2}Email Encoding = 1
{2}Use Email Subject = ELOG-ID $message id - Test Company
{2}Use Email Heading = Test Company Operations Report
{2}Use Email From = admin@sdf.com
{2}Suppress Email to users = 1
{2}Email Format = 27
{2}Suppress Email on edit = 1
{2}Suppress default = 2
{2}Display Email recipients = 1
{2}Omit Email To = 1
Any help would be appreciated. |

I'm using your latest binary release but still can't seem to get the 'Email Encoding' function to be decided under a conditional entry? There are no other references to email encoding in the logbook but it defaults to type 2 on all emails regardless of what the conditional attribute is set to.
Example below:
{1}Email attributes = Event Date, Event Start, Event End,
{1}Email Encoding = 2
{2}Email attributes = Service Affected, Ticker Text,
{2}Email All = seg@sdf.com
{2}Preset text = Ticker Text Entry
{2}Email Encoding = 1
{3}Email attributes = SMS,
{3}Email Encoding = 1
{3}Email All = sdb@sdf.com
Thx

in order to set a condition. |
I use conditional attributes to select the fields I would like displayed on a form or page.
I understand how they work but wish to set the Email Encoding automatically depending on which item they choose from a drop down list (ie. which form they are using)
For example, if they choose 'Fred Bloggs' from the conditional drop down attribute 'Name' it will set the page so that only 'Fred Bloggs' required attributes are viewable. I wish to send this page in Plain text when submitted.
If 'Fred Jones' is chosen then only attributes applicable to 'Fred Jones' are shown. When he submits his entry then I need the email to be sent in HTML.
The email encoding option would have to be set under either Fred Bloggs{1} or Fred Jones{2} conditions.
Attributes = Name,
Options Name = Fred Bloggs{1}, Fred Jones{2}
{1}Email encoding = 1
{1}Email All = sed@frd.fg
{2}Email encoding = 2
{2}Email All = sdf@fgd.hg
I can get options like 'Email All = sed@frd.fg' to change to another email address when used as above but not Email formatting.
I have all the other conditional attributes working fine otherwise but would really like to be able to add this option.
Thanks for your help. |

Can you please try the above configuration example, and can you please tell me exactly which version of elog you are using? If I try that example with ELOG V2.6.2-1714, it works fine (it DOES change the email encoding). |
My version shows V2.6.2-1699.
I noticed you have 1714, is that the latest binary or your compiled CVS release?

Hi Stefan, could you add my vote for this feature too please?

| Grant Jeffcote | grant@jeffcote.org | Question | Windows | 2.6.2.1723 | Re: Conditional Email Notification by a text file | Stefan, this is a great idea (thanks An).
I can't seem to get this working when Elogd is started as a service though?
Starting elogd (-x) manually works fine and with the -v switch I can see it is operating correctly but obviously the service option is preferred.
The service ("D:\ELOG\elogd.exe" -x -D -c "D:\ELOG\elogd.cfg") is starting correctly using the -x switch (as I use the shell command for other elog options) but it doesn't seem to send the mail.
Is this a 'feature' ;o)
Thx

From this time point it never works again even I try to re-open CMD and run "elogd -v -x"
The computer must be rebooted to get it works. (The CMD for running elogd -x must be always opened !!!) |
You probably run two servers in parallel. If you install the standard windows package, an elogd service is created and started. If you open a command window and run elogd manually, you have it running twice, and you never know to which instance your browser connects to. So first start the server with net stop elogd and then open the command window and start elogd manually. |
