icon8.gif   issue where not all users are able to log into their sessions, posted by cheref mohamed lamine on Tue May 2 02:57:45 2023 Login.PNG

I have an issue where not all users are able to log into their sessions and they are still settling on the login page

icon13.gif   Type date and conditional attributes, posted by Ralph Bearpark on Fri Mar 5 15:34:30 2004 
BUG#1
Given:

Attributes = Category, Status, Started, Finished, Activity, Headline
Type Started = date
Type Finished = date
Options Status = 1-To Do{1}, 2-Opened{2}, 3-Closed{3}, 4-Suspended{4}
{2} Preset Started = $date
{3} Preset Finished = $date
{4} Preset Finished = $date

There seems to be no setting of Date format (or Time format?) that gives a
meaningful value to attributes Started or Finished.  Even "Date format = %s"
- which gives number of seconds since 1970 - gives bad results.

BUG#2
In single entry view, elog returns an unformatted date value for "Type =
date" attributes - even when it has been manually entered with the date picker.

Thanks for that, Stefan.

Nor can I in the new version.  Forgive me if I don't investigate further. ;-)

Thanks, Stefan.
icon5.gif   Changes in Comment and Elog Index page?, posted by ralphb on Wed Aug 10 11:28:30 2005 
Just updated to ELOG V2.6.0-beta4 from V2.5.6-2 and I note a couple of changes:

- HTML code inculed in elog.cfg "Comment" lines were previously rendered, now they are not. e.g. "Comment = Some comment
<A href="http://somedomain.com/some.html" target="_top">&nbsp; Some link text</A>" Is this change deliberate, or is the functionality likely to return? Any workaround?

- The "Several logbooks are defined on this host" elog index page was previously collapsable, now it is not. Same questions as previous.

Thanks & best regards,

Ralph.

OK, I've fixed that one with "Expand Selection page = 0"

Two possible solutions:

1. Use ELOG's RSS support (look for "RSS Title" in the config syntax help). I added an RSS icon to each entry with "Bottom Text=<a href="http://myserver:8080/mylogbook/elog.rdf"><img border=0 height="14" width="36" src="/Rssicon_3614.gif" alt="[RSS]"></a>

2. Add a new attribute "Revised" and config it as follows: "Locked attributes = Revised" and "Subst on Edit Revised = $date". It'll get updated each time the entry gets updated. Then all you just need to create a link to "http://yourserver:8080/yourlogbook/page?mode=summary&rsort=Revised"

Best regards, Ralph.

I added some code now which checks if the comment is real HTML, and reverts back to the old behaviour if it is. The update is in CVS.


Thanks very much Stefan.

Our new server has no gcc so I had to compile it on a sister machine, pending the next RPM release.

By the way, your download page needs an extra line:
cvs -d :ext:cvs@midas.psi.ch:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout mxml
to have a hope of the make working.

Also, it would be nice if the "Installing and running on UNIX" section of the Administrator's Guide also had a set of "Installation from CVS" instructions.

Ah, but you are doing it so well!

Thanks again.
