Hey,
this sounds more like a PHP issue.
Which PHP version are you using? 
Which webserver? 
Which php function are you using: shell_exec() or exec()? Try looking at the return of exec()
Is the elog file set to the correct file permissions to be executed by the webserver?
Is the elog file in the PHP path or do you take care of defining the correct path?

Yes it was a path issue PHP was not loading correctly environmental path

Good day,

My question is : Is it possible to submit to multiple logbooks simultaniously ?

I have 5 logbooks that could share common attributes, is there a way to acheive that without recreate a new entry in each of them ?

Thanks for your help.

Hey,

You can use the elog command line tool and submit the same attributes to the 5 different logbooks by iterating over the logbook names executing something like this:

elog -l logbook1 -a "attr1=value1" -a "attr2=value2"

elog -l logbook2 -a "attr1=value1" -a "attr2=value2"

elog -l logbook3 -a "attr1=value1" -a "attr2=value2"

elog -l logbook4 -a "attr1=value1" -a "attr2=value2"

elog -l logbook5 -a "attr1=value1" -a "attr2=value2"

Another option would be having an additional common logbook, removing the commonly shared attributes from the other logbooks and add an attribute which links to this entry (using the "elog:logbook/ID" syntax as a value).

Hi,

I need to run elog command in an online php script. The problem I see is that the script works from the command line but not from the browser. In the script I just use:

system(elog -h mypc -p 8080 -l bla -a Author=\'io\' -a Type=\' ..etc.etc

any suggestions?

Hey,

if you define a Tooltip at the moment it is only displayed on the attribute. I would like it very much if it would also be displayed on the values (on the right column in the detailed view and on the whole column in the list view), since we are using the tooltips to define the units of the attribute and it would be nice to pop up when you hover a value.

As for the comment it would be nice to have a flag to also show the comment on the detailed view while looking at an entry. At the moment it is only showed when creating a new entry. Again we use this field to define the units.

This is an example of how we use these options:

attributes = Fill Number, Beam Current, Beam Energy, Beam Lifetime, RF Voltage S2, RF Voltage S4, RF Frequency, Synchrotron Frequency

Comment Beam Current = in mA
Comment Beam Energy = in GeV
Comment Beam Lifetime = in hh:mm
Comment RF Voltage S2 = in kV
Comment RF Voltage S4 = in kV
Comment RF Frequency = in MHz
Comment Synchrotron Frequency = in kHz

Tooltip Beam Current = in mA
Tooltip Beam Energy = in GeV
Tooltip Beam Lifetime = in hh:mm
Tooltip RF Voltage S2 = in kV
Tooltip RF Voltage S4 = in kV
Tooltip RF Frequency = in MHz
Tooltip Synchrotron Frequency = in kHz

Using the elog client to upload atachments, I can successfully send attachments to an existing elog, however the existing attachments are lost.

I have tested using the elog client version 3.1.1 and elog client version 2.9.2 sending to elogd 2.9.0

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l test -f  file1.png -f file2.png -e 249 -v -x

This works great, the text contained in the elog post is retained, however all attachments are lost and replaced with those sent by this command.

Can anyone provide some tips? I am not sure if its a problem with the client or server.

Thank you in advance!

Joseph

No, I don't think it is possible.
