You wrote you want to upload a text file, then you need to add at the end "-m <file>". E.g. if the text-file is named "C:text.txt", then write:
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Tartan+Tow+Log -d elog -a Ticket+date="Jul26/11" -n 1 -m C:text.txt
The "-n 1" is just to tell elog to upload plain text. If you do not specify "-m <file>" then it expects input from a pipe and therefore hangs. If you don't know what "input from a pipe" means then ALWAYS use the "-m <file>" option.
PS: if "Ticket date" is of the format "date" then it is sensitive to the formatting of the date string. "Jul26/11" is likely not a legal date format. Better do not specify it for the first test. Write instead:
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Tartan+Tow+Log -d elog -n 1 -m C:text.txt
PPS: do you really use a sub-directory "elog" instead of the default location "logbooks" for your ELOG logbook files? If not, then leave out this option, too.
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Tartan+Tow+Log -n 1 -m C:text.txt

Andreas, thank you very much. I was able to get the stand alone function working fine on my site, including a number of add'l attributes and options (SSL, etc).

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Info | Other | 2.9.0 | Expiration of ELOG forum accounts | Dear ELOG users,
the ELOG discussion forum at PSI contains in meantime many old accounts with non-functional email addresses. Since this causes some overhead, it has been decided to clean up the current account database. In order to keep your account alive, please log in at the above forum before Friday, Sept. 30th, 2011. If you fail to log in until that date, your account will be automatically deleted. Note that it will be always possible to re-create your account afterwards by simply clicking on "Register as new user", but before that you won't get automatic email notifications any more once your account has be deleted.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but the database contains currently too many wrong email addresses causing some flooding of our mail systems.
Best regards,
Stefan Ritt |

| leen smit | leen.smit@gmail.com | Info | Linux | All | ELOG V2.9. | RSS Feed | Hi All,
Just a quick message in the hope of helping other find an answer to the question: How to reach the RSS Feed???
I spend hours trying to find out what the correct URL is to reach the feed. The documentation on this is non-existent - at least we could't find this anywhere in the docs.
Answer: Just add elog.rdf at the end of the URL of the logbook!!
eg. http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/elog.rdf

Actually the browser should show an RSS icon to help you subscribing to it. In Firefox 3 that was at least the case. Now they removed it. See here for a fix:

For other browsers it might be similar.

I've just tested with Firefox, Chromium and IE, but no such icon appears. And for me this icon doesn't really help at all, as I'm using the feed to parse the logs
Besides, there is no mention of this Addon in the documentation, so the problem is still there: there is no easy way to find the feed URL.

Looks like the icon has disappeared in current versions of the browsers. I added a paragraph to the description:
