  1444   Mon Oct 10 19:22:51 2005 Warning Exaos LeeExaos.Lee@gmail.comBug reportMac OSX2.6.0-betaInstall error on MacOS X
Executing "make" on MacOS X is OK, but "make install" failed due to the following error:
/usr/bin/install -m 0755 -d /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/man/man1/ /usr/local/man/man8/
/usr/bin/install -m 0755 -o bin -g bin elog elconv /usr/local/bin
install: bin: Invalid argument
make: *** [install] Error 67

The reason is that the account "bin" and group "bin" are missing on MacOS X. I also found that the following lines in "Makefile" doesn't work:
ifeq ($(OSTYPE),darwin)
CC = cc
endif

I have fixed this problem. The diff of Makefile as following:
diff Makefile.darwin Makefile.origin

< BINOWNER = bin
< BINGROUP = bin

The modified Makefiles have been attached.

Ok, fixed in the current subversion repository. Better write such things by personal mail to me, since it might not interest the elog community very much.

Sorry. Wink I will mail you first next time.

There is no possibility to change an admin password. You probably mean that you logged in as admin and cannot change your own password, is that right? Do you use user level access via "password file = ..."? What is your elogd.cfg? I tried to switch language to German and I can change my own password via the config page.


Sorry for my poor English. The case is like this: When I set an admin password for my logbook which is named in Chinese, I cannot open the config page while the password is correct. It seems that the logbook named in Chinese cannot recieve the password submitted. If the logbook is named other than Chinese, everything is OK. I will repeat the problem and describe it more exactly.

Sorry for no update long time.
  2110   Sat Jan 13 17:35:45 2007 Question Exaos LeeExaos.Lee@gmail.comQuestion  How many topgroups can be defined?
I defined 6 top groups in my cfg file as the attachment.
But ... It doesn't work as I wanted.
The 4th and 5th groups need login. But when I clicked the 4th or 5th group, the login isn't needed.
And the 4th and 5th password files are not generated automatically.

Hi, I think, if we can put the "Group xxx = xxx" under some "global xxxx" sections, the configure file will be more clean. Don't you think so? In fact, if the "Group XXX" sections are put under "global XXX" section, the "Top Group XXX" can be ignored. I also found that some options (e.g. "Logbook dir =") under "global" don't work under "global XXX".
Maybe the configure file can be defined more flexible, such as this way:
[global]
Port = 8080
Top configuration = yes

[global Group1]
Group config = group1.cfg

[global Group2]
Group config = group2.cfg
The "group1.cfg" looks like this:
[global]
Top configuration = no
Password file = group1.pwd
Group Linux PCs = Red Hat, Debian, Gentoo
Group Windows PCs = 98, ME, XP, Vista
Group Vista = Home, Pro, Media Center

[Red Hat]
...
  69680   Sun Aug 13 20:24:41 2023 Question Evinrude Motorminsonj2016@gmail.comQuestionLinux3.1.5-1line breaks in 'Subject'

Certain characters contained in the 'Subject' will cause the text to split into multiple lines .

For example if  I enter "My Subject" in the 'Subject' field it is displayed as

My

Subject

If I enter "My_Subject" it is displayed as 

My_Subject

Is there any way to change this so no line breaks are created ?

Thanks for that bit of info . I had looked at that file but the answer was not obvious to me . Now I have to have an ELOG entry about , well , ELOG :}

There are two locations where 'Subject' is shown, the list display and the individual message display. I guess you mean the first one. 

In that case, you can modify the CSS styel sheet 'elog.css' and add following statement to the classes list2 and list2h:

.list2 {
   ...
   white-space: nowrap;
}  

.list2h {
   ...
   white-space: nowrap;
}
