Hi, 
  I have an elogbook which sends notifications to subscribers, plus, if the "Type" is "New Run", it sends the notification to a different mailing addeess and with a different subject (which need to be parsed by 
a script, but that's not relevant). All works fine: the snippet of config is below.

Attributes = Subject, Author, Type
Options Type = New Run{1}



Email All = all@experiment.org
Use Email Subject = [demo] $Subject from $Author

Email Type "New Run" = new-run@experiment.org
{1} Use Email Subject = NEWRUN

However, I'd like that the notification is always sent to all@experiment.org for all entries with the standard subject, and *also* to new-run@experiment.org in case of new run with the customized one.
Apparently with the config that I'm using this is not happening, and the "new run" are only sent to new-run@experiment.org (w/ subject NEWRUN).
I could easily add the generic address in addition to new-run@experiment.org, ie:

Email Type "New Run" = new-run@experiment.org, all@experiment.org

but in this case the subject would be "NEWRUN", while I'd like it to be "[demo] $Subject from $Author".

Any idea about how this can be done?

thanks in advance, Stefano

Stefan,

i recently download the elog server for windows and configured. its working with me fine

i would like to configure my elog server for to display a different color when am giving a specific "value" for a attribute "Status".

from the documentation i found to use the

Style Status Fixed = background-color:green

but with this configuration, the entire raw will be with red color or the specified color. i am looking only for that specific box (Status column) to be with specific color.

my configuration is as follows

Attributes = Author, Type, Category,  Subject, Location, Problem Description, Status

Options Status = Fixed, Under Process, Not Fixed

Style Status Fixed  = background-color:green

Style Status Not Fixed  = background-color:red

Style Status Under Process  = background-color:yellow

Am attaching two images, one is current display and next one is what i am looking for

am not sure about will it possible or not.  please guide me. if it possible with javascript please tell me how i can include a external javascript for this pupose.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

in our application I want to have, let's say in the simplest case, two logbooks. One as a database of samples we fabricated and one as a logbook for measurements. When a measurement on a sample is done and an entry is submitted to the 2nd logbook, I want to automatically edit or reply to the corresponding entry in the 1st logbook. For example I want to append a line in the free text field to have a full log of what happened to a sample there. We reference our samples with a unique auto-generated ID in both logbooks. Is is somehow possible to search the 1st logbook for that ID or any other attribute and obtain the elog entry ID since the elog client will need that ID for editing an entry?

Hi,

I am setting up an elog to organize my lab activities. I installed elog 2.8.0 on the latest CentOS 5.5, 32 bit. I got into trouble setting up the automated email notification.

According to the elog manual, I setup the smtp setting in the elogd.cfg as follows:

SMTP host = smtp.gmail.com
SMTP username = jianglai.liu
 

I then used "elogd -t" to encode the password into the configuration file.

But when I submit an entry, I always received: "Error sending Email via "smtp.gmail.com": 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. y17sm867489wfd.15"

If I switched to use my university email servers, similar things happened.

SMTP host = smtp.sjtu.edu.cn
SMTP username = jianglai.liu

I got "Error sending Email via "smtp.sjtu.edu.cn": 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: another step is needed in authentication"

I also switched to use one of my old work server

SMTP host = smtp-server.its.caltech.edu
SMTP username = jliu

and ended up with the same error message.

I did a google search on this without much progress. I would appreciate it very much if someone could shed light on how do I fix this.

Thanks much!

Hello,

what are the pre-requisites to automatically fill the Author and Author Email fields. The documented method:

Subst Author = $long_name from $remote_host

Subst Email = $user_email

in the elogd.cfg file does not seem to work.

(I see it works here on this platform)

Hi,

I was wondering what is the correct way so that the author field when a reply is made shows the author of the
person making the reply.
In version 2.6, the field was filled correctly but since upgrading to ELOG V2.9.1-2435 due to the ssh problem
the field just keeps the author of the original post.

I have a tried a number of subst on reply Author = $long_name with no luck.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Aldo
