> Can conditional attributes be assigned as conditions?

Well, I guess the question was: "Can you implement this?" I'm sure that you
tried before.. (;-)

Yes, it is working now, I had to add some new code and fix a bug with AND'ed
conditions (via '&'). The new version is under CVS. Since you use Windows, you
have to wait for the next release.

Yes, this is possible by using "Conditional Attributes". Have a look at the ELOG syntax help: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#conditional

To hide attributes on edit, you can use "Show Attributes Edit =  ..." for the conditions; and you only list the comment reason for the case where the value of the other attribute has the value "reserved".

If you don't get it to work, then just post your logbook config with some comments on what you want to achieve.

Cheers, Andreas

I have a stock database running latest elog version on windows. I am reserving some products which not been sent to customer mistakenly and using value "reserved" for it. But I need another attribute for comment reason of reserving but this attribute must be activated when reserved value selected. Is this possible? I didn't see any option for this at admin guide.

 

Thank you

Hello,

I try to email by using a email text file to reduce the admin work.
  • MOptions Team = EUROPE, ASIA, AFRICA, AMERICA
  • Email Team EUROPE = $shell(type C:\EuropeEmailList.txt)

but i get always Email sent to Shell execution not enabled via -x flag

Is this feature not supported by ELOG or did i use the wrong syntax?

Thank you in advance.

Yes, i did it. But the problem is still there.
I exactly tried 50 times by submit a new entry and got only 3 times passed. 47 another cases i got:
"Error sending Email via "192.168.2.20": 5.5.2 Need Rcpt command".
I run elogd -v and see:
"Email Team EUROPE to Shell execution not enable via -x flag"

Well, it looks like you are getting the text "Shell execution not enable via -x flag" put into the EUROPE attribute then the email server is attempting to send email to the email address "Shell execution not enable via -x flag", which is clearly not a valid address thus the "Error sending Email via "192.168.2.20": 5.5.2 Need Rcpt command".

You need to run run "elogd -v -x" then look for the errors. You also might try a more simpler test like "Preset Team EUROPE = = $shell(type C:\EuropeEmailList.txt)" and then see what is returned. It makes it simpler and removes the email error from the equation.

That's a very interesting idea of setting up mailing lists I never thought about. I tried myself and it works fine. Just as Steve says run "elogd -v -x" to see what happens. Also make sure that EuropeEmailList.txt contains only a single line with comma-separated email addresses, just as you would enter them in the config file.

I tested many times and find out the problem.
The first opening CMD and running "elogd -v -x". It works perfektly.
Close the CMD: It stops to work.
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.
