Please tell me for what purpose you need two identical logbooks. Maybe what you want can be achieved in a simpler way.

Have you tried to start your elog with the start command under Widnows, like start elog .... This is the equivalent of starting a process in the background under linux.

This is because you use the same data directory for both servers. If one server writes a new entry to a file, the other server does not realize this. Only when you restart it, it rescans the whole data directory and gets aware of the new entry. Try using separate data directories for the two servers.

Parsing attributes is not implemented and therefore will not work. |

 | Yoshio Imai | | Question | Linux | 2.6.0beta5 | Passive elog mirrors |
| Hi!Is it possible to install a "passive" elog mirror? We want to allow members of another institute to browse our logbook, but the connection is rather slow. The idea is now to set up an elog mirror at their site for faster access. Still, we should be the only ones who can add and edit the entries, so the update mechanism needs to be restricted in one direction. Is this possible at all? I didn't find any clues on that in the documentation ...ThanksYoshio |

| Ulrich Trüssel | ulrich.truessel@familienhund.ch | Question | Windows | 2.6.0beta5 | Changing width in entry mode |
| I'd like to change the width of the display when entering a new record. But I didn't find the right way after trying some time:Problem: see pic "Eingabe.jpg", if thre are more MOptions to select in entry mode, I have to scroll from right to left all the time. Ti s isn't really comfortable.Is there any option to fix the widht of the entry screen to a fix width in pixels or to the screen width? "Ausgabe.jpg" as ex., so multiple moptions would be arranged on multiple lines like in the display mode for the record.I checked the flags as well as the CSS but didn't find a solution. But maybe anybody has the right idea?To have a flag or someting to switch between the two entry modes would be fantastic and give a lot more of flexiblity for adaption to different sizes of screens.Thank's a lot for any idea! |

Yes, new version seems to fix this bug, but...
Now there's a new feature: sometimes it breaks the text message line into 2 when
displaying the summary page.
Maybe it happens only with Russian text  |

| Carlos Mateo | cmateo@indra.es | Question | Windows | 2.6.0beta5 | Automatic creation of new entry in another logbook |
Hi
I am trying to create an entry in logbook2 when I submit a new entry in logbook1. The automatically created entry in logbook2 will have a reference to the entry that created it.
So far I have tried several ways:
1.- Using the "Execute new" I call elog to create the second entry. As the server is single-process, it locks: elog is waiting for elogd to be ready and elogd is waiting for elog to finish to accept new requests.
As my server is on a Windows machine I can´t execute elog on background.
2.- I tried to run 2 servers on different ports using the same elogd.cfd file, calling the second server from elog. This "almost" works: the logbook files are updated, but the original server must be restarted to "see" the changes.
3.- Using the "Menu text" option, I create a link to create the new entry. The problem is that attributes are not parsed: a link like this <a href="/logbook2/?cmd=New&pAttr=Value $ID">Test</a> won´t substitute $ID
Is there a way to do what I want?
TIA,
Carlos |

You use an old version of elog. Please upgrade to the 2.6.0-beta5 which you can obtain from
http://savannah.psi.ch/viewcvs/trunk/src/elogd.c?root=elog&rev=1541 |

2. Click List

4. Only the last page is shown
It looks like the URL pageN?cmd=List does not work, while pageN works.
Any hints?
Same behaviour can be seen also with Discussion forum on Elog site. |
I don't understand. I tried on the Discussion forum:
1. View message, for example http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1506
2. Click List, which takes me to http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/
3. Click Next, which takes me to http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/page2
Then I really see page2, not the last page. So what do you do differently? |
Somehow in my logbooks List command would add cmd=List to the URL
And this does not work... |
