icon6.gif   Attribute and checkbox, posted by Arno Teunisse on Sun Sep 3 21:57:00 2006 untitled.JPGuntitled1.JPG
In the screen shots I see checkboxes before the attributes. How can I do that ??
In the doc I saw Options <attribute> = boolean. But that creates a checkbox in the fill in form after the attribute. See second attached picture. The first attached picture shows what I want but I can only get the result in the second picture. Can anybody help me in this one. ( Is there an option checked for the attributes ?
icon5.gif   Find empty attributes, posted by Arno Teunisse on Tue Feb 16 23:19:31 2016 

Want to use the find function from ELOG to search for empty fields ( Attributes that are not defined ) 
How to do that ? 
Could not find it in the Forum.
 

Greetings Arno Teunisse

In Version 2.6.1-6 the link is corrupted and look always like "http://localhost:8080/logbook/pag"


In this version, the above is true. It also has corrupted entries when clicking : Full | Summary | Threaded.

On MSExplorer and Firefox only a part of the link is shown in the left-down corner of the browser :
http://localhost:8080/?mo

No matter what button you click.

It should be : http://localhost:8080/?mode=full
http://localhost:8080/?mode=Summary
http://localhost:8080/?mode=Attachments

I'v tested is with the default elogd.cfg file which comes with the installation.

Something is going wrong here.

When importing a csv text file the above is introduced also.

Just installed the previous version :
====================================
[C:\Program Files\ELOG]elogd -c elogd.cfg
elogd 2.6.1 built May 24 2006, 08:59:09 revision 1688
Indexing logbooks ... done
Server listening on port 8080 ...

And the problem is gone. !!!!

problem is in version :
==========================
[C:\Program Files\ELOG1]elogd -c elogd.cfg
elogd 2.6.1 built Jun 13 2006, 08:43:21 revision 1691
Indexing logbooks ... done
Server listening on port 8080 ...

I love elog , for it's simplicity,
but will not upgrade to the lastest release untill this is solved.

Thanks for your detailed information. The hint with the two different revisions heally helped. I fixed that in revision 1695, and made an intermediate release 2.6.1-7. This will fix the problem. Can you please check that this is working?


Sorry for my ( very ) late answer , But yes the problem is GONE after installing the new release? Thanks.

See second attached picture. The first attached picture shows what I want but I can only get the result in the second picture. Can anybody help me in this one.

Just answer it myself : I thought of the checkboxes in front of the attributes as boolean. However, it has to to with the browse feature filtered browsing =1= In this way you can, when checking one of the checkboxes, browse to the same item clicking the next and previous button. Sorry , my question was about RTFM ( Read The Fucking Manual ) So this question is solved.

However , it would be nice to have a checkbox in front of one attribute. Suppose you have a lot a entries in a record ,that are readonly( predefined). The user of the form must only confirm that a job is done by checking the checkbox without going to the edit mode. So, the checkbox is writable in readonly mode. I can inmagine something like : attribute record check = attribute in the configuration file. In this way the user of the form says : job done. There can be only one checkbox for the record.

[ job done]  [ customer ] [ activity ] [ What should be done ]
[X]           BLA          Check job1   Backup mail check
[]            BLA1         Check job2   check error report
[X]           Bla2         Check job3   check MQ jobs
Is this possible ?? It's just an idea

Thanks for your reading this

- If I set one to ssl and the other non-ssl, synchronization fails with "Remote server is not an ELOG server"

Is anyone synchronizing or mirroring two ELOG servers with SSL? When either or both servers are set to use SSL, I can use either site. but I can't synchronize.

 

Synchronization with SSL does not yet work. I have to find some time to implement it. Since you are already the second one mentioning this, it slipped higher on my to-do list  

 

 

Hi Stefan, we would also like to see synchronization with SSL working. Hopefully now this task can slip even higher on your to-do list.   It is a real pain to get to the elog from outside PSI, when elogd is running inside PSI (which it must be when working as an online logbook with MIDAS). We would very much ike to mirror it on a server outside PSI.

icon4.gif   xmalloc error when filling entries and chaning page, posted by Antonio Iuliano on Wed Dec 12 10:44:57 2018 elogd.cfg

Dear ELOG experts,

the ELOG server on our lab crashes  continuosly, when we add a new entry or even if we click the arrows to navigate between entries. Following the FAQ on the website, I have used gdb and found the following error:

xmalloc: not enough memory

[Inferior 1 (process 23271) exited with code 01]

It should be then some allocation issue when we try to access to the entries, but I could not figure the nature of the issue. I was, however, able to reproduce it with a fresh ELOG installation and the same configuration file (ELOG cloned from git and installed today)

Could you please give me any suggestion? I attach here the configuration file we use.

Best regards,

Antonio Iuliano

icon5.gif   Different logbook files when running elogd as admin or normal user, posted by Antonio Bulgheroni on Thu Jul 21 07:44:04 2016 

Dear all, I have a problem with my window elog installation (2.9.2) and I would like to ask your help for solving it.

I'm using elog on my lab computer for a single user installation, so something very simple. It was running smoothly for many months using the automatic window service (i.e. elogd was started automatically at boot). I need to add that the service is started as the local administrator, while my user has no administrative rights. ELOG is installed in the standard location C:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\ with the logbook folder inside and this is actually accessible only for admins.

On 8/04/2016, elogd crashed while I was saving an edited message. Then instead of restarting the service or rebooting the PC, I was just starting elogd manually (as me not as admin). It worked for many weeks. And now comes the problem: at the next reboot the elogd service came up automatically but all the new records I added in the logbook since I re-started manually are not there. Indeed in the C:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\logbooks the latest entry is 160408a.txt. But if I stop the service and restart elogd manually (as me not as admin), then I can see in the logbook all the new entries.

My questions is where the ascii files corresponding to the new entries? They must be saved somewhere, maybe in some temporary folder. I want to copy them back and keep them in the backup to avoid unpleasant surprise.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Antonio
