icon5.gif   Conditional attribute activation, posted by Devrim Esenturk on Fri Jul 21 15:24:33 2017 

I have a stock database running latest elog version on windows. I am reserving some products which not been sent to customer mistakenly and using value "reserved" for it. But I need another attribute for comment reason of reserving but this attribute must be activated when reserved value selected. Is this possible? I didn't see any option for this at admin guide.

 

Thank you

icon5.gif   How many "Extendable options" can I add?, posted by Devrim Esenturk on Fri Oct 26 14:22:59 2018 

Hi

I am trying to add "Extendable options" for some attribute as below example. However button to add new item for list appears only for the first "Extendable options", if disable the first with (;), button appears for the second. It means elog add new item button only the first line "Extendable options" not for other?

Is this a limitation or bug or am I doing something wrong?

Options Require = N/A, Camera{1}, Lens{2}, Other{3}
{1} MOptions Require Model= XNB-6001, PNM-7000VD, PNM-9000VQ, PNM-9320VQ
{2} MOptions Require Lens = SLA-T2480, SLA-T2480V, SLA-T4680, SLA-T4680V, SLA-T1080F, SLA-2M2400P, SLA-2M2800P, SLA-2M3600P, SLA-2M6000P, SLA-2M1200P, SLA-5M3700P, SLA-5M4600P, SLA-5M7000P, SLA-2M2400Q, SLA-2M2800Q, SLA-2M3600Q, SLA-2M6000Q, SLA-5M3700Q, SLA-5M4600Q, SLA-5M7000Q, SLA-2M2400D, SLA-2M2800D, SLA-2M3600D, SLA-2M6000D
{3} MOptions Require Other = Base Unit

Extendable options = Require Model

Extendable options = Require Lens

Extendable options = Require Other

Thank you

Devrim

No problem :) 

Your suggestion worked as it must be. I didn't see "Extendable options = <list>" on guide :/

I guess I need rest a little bit... :(

Thank you

Have a great weekend

David,

Try

icon5.gif   Display edit time, posted by Devrim Esenturk on Wed Nov 24 08:12:17 2021 

Hi

I have a large logbook to keep office demo equipments listed. So editing entries are very often, I would like to see last editing time on my entry as entry time shown as each entry. Is there any way to do this? I checked all attributes and commands  but couldn't find any.

King regard

icon5.gif   reset password link when using proxy, posted by Devin Bougie on Thu May 15 18:36:55 2008 

For heightened security, we allow access to our ELOG installation from offsite through an apache proxy.  Therefore, the URL for our ELOG becomes http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/proxy/elog/ .  Everything seems to work properly with this setup except for the "reset password" utility.  When trying to reset ones password, the link sent in the "Password recovery" email becomes, for example:

http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/proxy/elog/ERL+W128/?redir=%3Fcmd%3DChange+password...

When using this link, the redirect redirects you to:

http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/ERL+W128/?cmd=Change%20password...

Which does not work.  Instead, the redirect should point to:

 

http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/proxy/elog/ERL+W128/?cmd=Change%20password...

Any suggestions or workarounds would be greatly appreciated.
 
Many thanks,
Devin

 

icon5.gif   ELOG scalability, posted by Devin Bougie on Fri Jan 9 22:40:59 2009 

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 

 

 

 

 

 

icon5.gif   convert: unrecognized option '-set', posted by Devin Bougie on Mon Jan 26 22:01:07 2009 
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,
---
>       sprintf(cmd, "convert '%s' -rotate %d -thumbnail %d -comment ' %d' '%s'", file_name, new_rot,
22618c22618
<       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,
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
icon8.gif   frequent crashes on SL4, posted by Devin Bougie on Wed Feb 4 18:08:42 2009 
Hi, All.  Ever since upgrading from an old ELOG release on an aging windows machine to the latest version on Scientific Linux 4 (RHEL4), and 
greatly increasing its use, we have seen frequent crashes of elogd.  This has become very disruptive to operations, and any help would be greatly 
appreciated.  We are using Apache (running on the same machine as elogd) to secure ELOG using https as per the Administrator's Guide.

Anecdotally, the crashes seem to frequently happen when a user is attaching an image.  However, most of the time attachments succeed without 
incident.

I attempted to obtain a stack trace by attaching gdb to the process, but elogd died during the night.  It was urgently needed, so I needed to kill 
the elogd process (ptrace() kept it hanging around) and therefore could not obtain a stack trace.  For what it's worth, here is the output we do see in 
gdb:

I plan on letting elogd create a core dump, but so far I haven't managed to change its cwd to a directory elog can write to.

Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin
