  66700   Tue Feb 2 21:52:00 2010 Question Ed Rogersedrogers@fnal.govQuestionLinuxV2.7.5-213Backing up an entire eLog

Hi, I've been using the ELOG software for about a year now. I love it! But as my ELOG becomes more valuable, I become more paranoid about potential data loss. (We've had numerous close-calls with disk failures, recently.) Is there a way to download a backup of my ELOG, all at once? Maybe a command that could create a tar.gz of all the entries and attachments? Further, is there also a command to restore from such a backup? Apologies if this question is answered elsewhere. I couldn't readily find it in the documentation. Regards, --Ed

When compiling elog on OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), I get the error below.

Elog will compile without error if I add -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 to CFLAGS in Makefile, but I'm not sure whether this is a good idea.

All over sudden gcc comes with its own version of "strlcpy", which I had defined "manually" since many years inside ELOG. Using -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=0 will not harm, so you can use it. The "real" solution is to take our ELOG's strlcpy/strlcat, which I did on the current SVN version.

Best regards,

Ok, I tried updating my SVN working copy, but I didn't get any updates past elog rev. 2494, mxml rev. 74.  I undid my changes to Makefile, tried to compile, but got the same errors.  

I then pulled down elog and mxml with git, and these are working for me with no errors.  Thanks!

SVN is obsolete and will NOT be maintained any more, since we completely switched to GIT. Actually I will disable the service soon. 

 I too am having issues installing on Mac OS X 10.9.1. I changed CFLAGS in makefile to;

CFLAGS += -O3 -funroll-loops -fomit-frame-pointer -W -Wall -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0

I get many lines of errors like this when I run make;

Hi, I tried to set up an ELOG from a windows machine. Its functionalities work without any problem, but I cannot access at all this ELOG from any other machine. I tried to search in this forum, but with no avail.

Could someone perhaps tell me know how to fix this problem? Or did I miss something obvious in the configuration of the ELOG?

Cheers,

Duarte

Do you know which settings in the firewall panel I should change (windows 10 machine)? I went over all the access rules and could not find anything corresponding to the ELOG.

Probably a problem with your Windows Firewall. You have to convice your OS to let you in.

Speaking of windows I'd like to note that when I moved my call tracking config from a slow BSD
system (PPro 200Mhz) to a faster windows system (P3 733M) I noted a huge slow down in the
interface.  Talking about perhaps 1-2 seconds before to 10-15 seconds after.  Using
sysinternals file monitor I see that elogd is hammering each log file in the directory.  Not
sure what else is going on.  309 log files - only 1.25Meg.  

Anything I can do short of pruning down the files?

[Edit:  In both cases above my default view is filtered and sorted - so that I only see things
with a specific status.  Taking away the filtering resolves this hit - but does not explain the
speed difference between platforms.]

The maximum number or attributes is 100.

Is it possible to increase this?

Thanks!

Dear Stefan,

 Thansk for the super fast response! To keep the stability of the system we will look for a different solution then. 

Best,

Marta

You would have to change the elogd.c code and recompile. At some point you wlll however get crash of elogd with a stack overflow. If you need more than 100 attributes, it becomes anyhow hard to manage, so I would suggest other ways, like adding iformation to the text body etc.

Best,

To explain the problem, we have silicon chip designs, which we log with an indentifyier, which is the attribute for easy search, as we want to follow their progress from design thorugh fabrication to testing, involving many people. They are called D_001; D_099...you get it. We have reached the 100, but maybe it is the est just to create an archive after each 100 design and make a new tab/logbook. Any other suggestions are of course welcome. 

David Pilgram wrote:

In my case, I had a number of attributes which had a varied prefix.  For example, "progressed" , which could have no prefix, or prefix "I", "To be", "Strongly", "Seriously"... and that was true (the same prefixes, or at least many of them) for a number of attributes.  Splitting them into two groups, the prefixes and the action, allowed me to gain more actual attributes without having to recompile.  Suitable change in the elog config file will also make this easy to follow in how the entries are shown in threaded or full display modes.  In your case suffixes may be better, but I hope you get the point.

Although I have done a (linux) recompile in the past, v2.9 something, 120 attributes seemed not to affect things.
