  66525   Thu Sep 3 21:55:52 2009 Question Gerhard Schneidergs@ilsb.tuwien.ac.atQuestionLinux2.7.7-2246chain.crt
Like many educational institutions we get "educational certificates" that are chain certificates..

With apache the full certificate chain is working as expected..

For elog I copied the appropriate files to server.crt and server.key

Netscape 3 is happy with that setup, Internet Explorer and Opera are mentioning the open certificate chain.

When I tried to copy the file known as SSLCACertificateFile in Apache to chain.crt elogd does not longer work and 

openssl s_client -showcerts -connect <myserver>:<elogd_port>

only shows: 

CONNECTED(00000003)
25523:error:14077410:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:sslv3 alert handshake failure:s23_clnt.c:562:

What do I do wrong?

Hello,

   Thank you for such a great piece of software!

   When displaying the entries in a log book with Summary view, ELCode is not processed in 'Text'. I know there
is an option called 'Allow HTML", but is there something similar for decoding ELCode in the Summary 'Text' field?

Thank you again,
   - Dan

The way I have ELOG configured it sends an email to supervisors based on which "Department " (attribute) was selected. Problem is that when the supervisor replies the department

is still selected and it sends a second email to the supervisor. Is there any way to supress the emails (automatically) on "Reply"?

When locks are enabled, users should see a pop-up window asking them to submit an entry if they edit an entry but then go away from that page or 
close the browser without submitting the changes.  However, it only appears as though this works when using the plain or ELCode editors.  When 
using the HTML editor, no such pop-up appears.

If possible, a fix for this would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin

We use eLOG with IE. Once we turned on SSL, it is no longer possible to "Export to CSV" and save the output.

The error that we get is:

Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.

This is documented on Microsoft's site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316431

It is considered a feature with no fix. Basically the browser is honoring a request from the server which is "Pragma: no-cache". Problem can be reproduced in IE versions 6 through 8.

Hello @all,

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but after upgradeing from 2.7.0 to 2.7.7 the Change <attribute> and List Change <attribute> doesn't work anymore. In my .cfg file I've:

Quote:
Change RIB-http = <a href="https://$RIB-Hostname/" target="_new">RIB-Board</a>
List Change RIB-http = <a href="https://$RIB-Hostname/" target="_new">RIB-Board</a>


In the old ELOG version I've "RIB-Board" as text in the page and the link works well. But now there is the following code generated:

Quote:
<tr><td nowrap class="attribname">RIB-http:</td><td class="attribvalue">
&lt;a href="<a href="https://RIB-COMPUTER/">https://RIB-COMPUTER/</a>" target="_new"&gt;RIB-Board&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;</td>
</tr>

Is the syntax changed from 2.7.0 to 2.7.7? What's the correct syntax for 2.7.7?

Best regards
Holger

Hi,

I use the following attribute definition:

Options <attribute> = <list> 


 

However, I am being limited by the list length limit of 100. I have 103 items, but I only see 100.

Could the limit be extended (to 200 for instance) ?

 

Thanks a lot for your help

 

Soren

 

  66557   Wed Oct 7 16:17:34 2009 Question Steve WilliamsonStephenWilliamson@Barnsley.gov.ukQuestionLinux2.7.5Dynamic attribute values

Hi

I'm doing something wrong but can't work out what! 

I've created a new logbook with some date attributes that need to keep in step, e.g. one date ("receipt date") is set to the date the new record is created and another ("response required") to 7 days later.  The logbook doesn't use threaded messages, just a single page for each log entry with Submin/Preview/Back.  The dates are set with:

Preset Receipt Date = $date

Preset Response Required = $shell(gawk 'BEGIN{ print $Receipt Date + 86400 * 7}')

"receipt date" and "response required"  are set correctly when the log is written but if I change "receipt date" then "response required" is not altered - presumably because Preset only works on "New".  Tho I haven't found a way to make this dynamic with Subst.

When the log is updated later a third date may be entered ("proposal submitted") and this should calculate a fourth date ("proposal expires").  Again, I thought I could do this with some sort of "Subst" but can't work out how.  If I use Subst then the value of "proposal expires" isn't changed at all and if I use Subst On Edit then the value isn't changed until I go in to edit the log when the correct "proposal expires" date gets calculated and displayed, e.g.:

Subst On Edit Proposal Expires = $shell(gawk 'BEGIN{ if ($Proposal Sumbitted > 0) {print $Proposal Submitted + 86400 * 30}}')

Am I trying to do the impossible, and is there a document that will help me to understand when different updates (Preset, Subst, Subst On..., Change etc) happen and comparing their use?

A great piece of software - though I sometimes find it hard to get my head round all that it can be bent to do!

regards

Steve
