  67568   Thu Oct 3 10:23:31 2013 Question Paraic Faheyparaic.fahey@pfizer.comQuestionWindows2.7.6cannot add new logbooks to any of my logbook groups

Each time a attempt to CREATE A LOGBOOK on any of my logbook groups, I get an ELOG ERROR page presenting saying FORBIDDEN ATTRIBUTE DATE.

I have, up until recently been able to add new logbooks.

Can anybody help me on this.

I am having a problem with the navigation buttons when clicking previous or next button. It does not do anything. Has anyone had this same problem? I am also using IE 10. But it seems also having a same problem on Firefox.
  67583   Mon Oct 14 12:08:16 2013 Question Barendoffice@amtc2.comQuestionWindows2.9.2Error: Attribute <date> not supplied.

Stefan/Andreas,

When I reply to an existing Logbook entry, I get the error page "Error: Attribute Audit Date not supplied. Please go back and enter the Audit Date field."

The configuration file uses:

Required Attributes = Audit No, Audit Date, Audit Type, Finding No, Finding Level, Section, MOE Procedure, Finding Details, Auditor, Deadline, Responsibility
Fixed Attributes Reply = Audit No, Audit Date, Audit Type, Finding No, Finding Level, Section, MOE Procedure, Finding Details, Auditor, Deadline, Responsibility
Type Audit Date = date
Type Deadline = date
 

The combination "Required Attributes" and "Fixed Attributes Reply" does not work for date-fields.

As soon as I disclose the date fields from either "Required Attributes" or "Fixed Attributes Reply" the error is no longer evident.

But I want the "Audit Date" and "Deadline" to entered during a new Record and they shall not be changed during a reply.

 

Is this a bug -or- do I have to change the configuration?

 

Thanks & regards, Barend

Hi everyone,
we have formerly used the DOOCS eLogBook from DESY for a couple of years for some application at our large
research facilities. Now we have standardized on ELOG and I've got a request to import the old DOOCS eLogBook
data into the new logbooks.
I've looked into it and the import appears to be fairly straight forward. I have two questions to the community,
before I start to program an import script:

1) Has anyone created such an import function already, and if the answer is yes, can I have it?

2) Would anyone else be interested in such a "cross logbook import", and if yes, what are your requirements?

Thanks
Andreas

Hello,
I am trying to move elog from old FreeBSD system to a new Ubuntu server and stuck with attachment encoding problem. The elog entries as well as attachments &#1072;&#1096;&#1076;&#1091; &#1090;&#1092;&#1100;&#1091;&#1099; are mostly in koi8-r or cp1251 encoding. While it is relatively easy to configure log entries to display correctly, I still can't manage to deal with attachments. In old elog all attachments with Cyrillic file names are "not found" by elog web interface while files are present in the directory (though previous admin could have done something with the encoding).

If I am creating a new elog with default koi8-r charset, then new cyrrilic attachments are uploaded and displayed normally but after download the file name encoding is broken. Does elog do something with attachment name encoding?

 For one user in our ELog installation the "Show only new entries" button seems to be stuck on one particular date and time " ...

 

New entries since: Tue Oct 22 10:56:27 2013

 

this occurs with different browsers and PC's

For other users it works as described in this forum post ...

"When you are active browsing entries, your activity is recorded (only the time) in the password file. Now when you are inactive for more than one hour, you are considered "logged out", and your last activity is taken as a filter for new entries. That means you see new entries since your last activity in the logbook. " https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1612

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.

  67607   Wed Nov 13 13:36:48 2013 Question David PilgramDavid.Pilgram@epost.org.ukQuestionLinux2.9.2-2475date and time
[13 Nov]
As my threads have lots of replies, I end up with a forest of ">" characters which makes it difficult to read
earlier quoted entries (what with word-wrapping of the browser).
I thought to replace the ">"s by a simple date entry prepended to the start of each reply. - much as I have 
given at the top of this initial entry.

So this is what I put in the config file:

....
Time format = %a %d %b %y
Date format = %d %b
Prepend on reply = [$date] \n
...

The time is used in the string for the Thread display.

Only I don't get the date, with the date format, prepended to replies but the time, in the time format, as

[Wed 13 Nov 13]

Now this is hardly a disaster, but any ideas why the date formatting is being ignored?
