  2146   Thu Mar 1 15:27:31 2007 Question An Thaithaithan@gmx.deQuestionWindows2.6.4.1801Re: Conditional Email Notification by a text file
Dear All,

I have got very good feedback from my colleagues about Elog logbook which I have made at my work since October 2006. The tool is going to use improving.

At moment, I don't let Elog start as a service (deamon), but as an application (start from a *.bat file). Because I just want to enable of "elogd -x" for reading of email list in an external file. But this cause that Elog cannot be set to automatically restart after a crash. (As a service in Windows, you can set it restart immediatly after crash)

I don't find anywhere in the administrator's guide how I can set the option 'elogd -x' while installing Elog to get a service with '-x' option.

Do you know it?


Dear Stefan,
could you enable it for the install download file for Windows?
  2153   Fri Mar 2 16:39:22 2007 Question Justin Ellisonjustin@techadvise.comQuestion 2.6.4-179Hiding attributes in Detail view?
First off, thanks so much for this product. It works excellent for us as a server activity log. I have a question, which depending on the answer, might be a feature request Wink

As I mentioned, we use elog as a serverlog. Sometimes, but not always, we will have a Bugzilla bug # that is associated with the log entry. We then take that bug #, and build a link to our bugzilla server displaying the bug. Here's the relevant config entries:
Attributes = Author, Classification, Subject, Bug Number, Environment, Server, Bugzilla
...
#Make the list table narrow enough to fit in the browser
List display = ID, Date, Author, Subject, Server, Bugzilla
...
#We take in a Bug Number from the user, then calculate a Bugzilla link from that
Change Bugzilla = <a href="http://bugz:4545/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=$Bug Number">$Bug Number</a>
List Change Bugzilla = <a href="http://bugz:4545/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=$Bug Number">$Bug Number</a>
Hidden Attributes = Bugzilla

So, on new entry, the user has the option to enter a Bug Number. Bugzilla is not displayed because it is derived. In list view, Bug Number is not displayed, but Bugzilla is, providing a handy link to the bug on a different server.

The only thing that isn't working as I'd like is when someone views a log entry. Both Bug Number and Bugzilla show up in the attributes. This isn't a huge deal, it's just showing redundant data.

Is there a way to hide Bug Number on the view page?

hello,
For 1 event, I need the date and the hour of this one. An event can be enter in elog several days after this one. The problem is that I do not manage to carry out one sorts on these two attibuts. I tested the order “? rsort” but this one works only on one entry not out of 2 at the same time (? rsort=Heure+evenement, Date+evenement&mode=threaded)
have an easy way?
Thank you very much

Hi,

I want to set up a logbook which you have to be logged in to be able to read entries. I've already got three logbooks which can be viewed by anyone but only logged-in users can modify them. For the fourth one, I want to have a private logbook which can't be read by 'guest' users. Is this possible?

cheers

  2195   Tue Apr 10 04:03:59 2007 Question marionmarion@spiderweb.com.auQuestionWindows2.6.4-1795HOW TO change http://localhost:8080/ to an address where users can access?
hi folks


thankyou for your time
have read the user docs
and admin docs
and faqs
i used the latest windows installer to have the script runner as a server on windows

BTW i have been looking for over 3 years for this sort of thing - so i had given up for the i would say, i have looked at over 120 scripts and progs for possibilites - could this really be it?


i have managed to make another logfile using the config example
from stev ritt accelerator logbook
with a slight variation (changed file attached)as i could not make the original work for me as i do not know what i am doing.

i placed this in the demo config, underneath the code that was already there ie

Theme = default
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Category = General, Hardware, Software, Network, Other
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type


I REPLACED BELOW CODE

; use user level password access
Password file = passwd
Login expiration = 1000
Admin user = ritt
Self register = 1


WITH THIS CODE
; use user level password access
Password file = XXXXXX
Login expiration = 1000
Admin user = XXXXXX
Self register = 1
==============================================
MY QUESTION:

HOW do i change the automated address http://localhost:8080/ to an address where users can access?
or do i tell them the address is http://localhost:8080/ - somehow i think that is not going to work for them even though it does for me.

my address is
http://organicparents.org
