Hello,

i have problems with importing csv files. What i want to do is the following:

Import a list of log entries from a csv file with another date like the actual date

I tried to do this but the only thing which happend was that all the entries have the actual date in elog. Then i created a seperate Date column in the csv file an tried to import this.

It worked but in the default date column i have the import date and in a second date column i have the date from the csv file.

Is there a chance to get the csv column imported in the standard Date field? 

Or is there a possibility to hide/supress the default date field and only display the imported date field?

Thanks

Michael

Hi, All.  We have been successfully using ELOG in a limited deployment for a couple years now.  However, we are about to embark on a new project that could run for up to 10 years, and are wondering what sort of scalability we can expect from ELOG.

Are there any problems we can expect to run into as the number of entries grow?  I see in a previous thread that "elog runs fine for a few 10000 entries. At 100000 entries it starts getting slow."  Is this still the case, or have any improvements been made?  What sort of problems would we expect to run into?  Any examples of existing large deployments would be very useful.

Many thanks,

Devin 

Hello, I'm having problems with e-mail notifications.

When I try submitting a new post, I get the following error:

Error sending Email via "smtp.glocalnet.net"

The error message doesn't give a lot of hints...

My config file contains the following lines:

[global]
SMTP host = smtp.glocalnet.net
SMTP username = rhj764h@tninet.se
SMTP Password = xxx

...

[BugZ]

...

Email All = somebody@gmail.com
Use Email From = theproject@kato.homelinux.org

The password was created by invoking elogd with the -t option containing the true password. I've tried enter the correct password manually in the config, but the error message is the same.

Below follows a cut&paste of the console output when invoking with the -v option (addresses manually edited to avoid spam):

Email ALL to somebody@gmail.com

I can't make any sense of this. Please advise.

hi there,

Is it possible to attach a default value for a radio button when submitting a new form/record, for example: 
I now have an item "Confirmed" Yes/No, and I want the "no" option to be selected by default when a new form/record is created.
Does anyone know how to arrange this?

Thanks in advance!

Great software.

Okay, so I've done my reading through the forum and got a couple of nuggets along the way but I am still unable
to get the e-mail function to work.  I am using Windows IIS to make an SMTP virtual server to shimmy around the
IT firewall.  That appears to work as I can see the response from the external SMTP server while running elogd
with the -v flag.  The elogd -v details are below:  

Email from xxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx.com to xxxxxx.XXXXXXX@XXXXX.com,XXXXX.XXXXX X@XXXXX.com, SMTP host
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.XXXX.XXXXX.com: 
220 smtp.xxxxx.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 6.0.2600.2180 ready at   Mon, 26 Jan 2009 10:56:35 -0500 
EHLO xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxx.xxxxx.com 
250-smtp.xxxxx.com Hello [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] 
250-AUTH=LOGIN 
250-AUTH LOGIN 
250-SIZE 2097152 
250-PIPELINING 
250-DSN 
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 
250-8bitmime 250-BINARYMIME 
250-CHUNKING 250-VRFY 
250 OK AUTH LOGIN 
Username: 
xxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx.com 
Password: cm9jaGVsb2dib29r 
535 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful 
==== Return ================================  

From the SMTP server response it is not logging in, but I don't know why.  I can log in to the webmail app with
the username/password provided to ELOG, but it doesn't appear to work through ELOG. The SMTP provider includes
the following info to setup e-mail accounts via SMTP: "Please note: To send e-mail using the SMTP-Server,
activate SMTP Authentication. Please do not use the Secure Password Authentication (SPA) option. Optionally,
port 587 can also be used in addition to the default port (25) RFC 2476." 

For authentication via the Windows IIS I have "basic authentication" with no TLS encryption required - I'm not
sure if that meets the provider's "SMTP authentication" requirement.  When I was using the previous version of
ELOG (sorry, I did not note the version number) the username was encrypted along with the password.  With the
2168 build, the password is still encrypted but the usernamer is not; should the password be in "plain text" as
well?  

I can provide you with a username/password for the SMTP provider I'm using if that will help.  Please send me a
separate e-mail and I will reply with the information.  

Thank you,

Hello,

We are now running elog-2.7.5 in a Scientific Linux 4 (RHEL4) system, which uses ImageMagick 6.0.7.1.  After uploading an image, the image 
manipulation buttons don't work and complain:
convert: unrecognized option '-set'

We are using an RPM built from source, and it looks like I should be able to just change "-set comment ..." to "-comment" as in:
------
[dab66@lnx100 tmp]% diff elogd.c elogd.c.new 
22601c22601
<       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -set comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, new_rot,
---
>       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, new_rot,
22607c22607
<       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -set comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, new_rot,
---

22618c22618
<       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -set comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, cur_rot,
---

22624c22624
<       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -set comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, cur_rot,
---
>       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, cur_rot,
------

Is there any better way for us to fix this, or is anything else needed?

Thanks,
Devin

 Hi folks, 

I want to have Last day be a command in the List display, so I added:

List menu commands = New, Find, Import, Login, Logout, Config, Last day, Help

However, when Last day is selected, the command does not change to Last 2 days.
What is the right way to do this?

Thanks,
Mike
