I'm interested using elog for a lab notebook.  Once entries have been
entered they cannot be changed/edited.
Is it possible for elog to be setup to support something like this?  A write
only mode?

Dear All,

is it possible to write to the elog instead of the Command line throug a .dll

 Hello,

Can anyone please send me, or publicly provide, working Ubuntu 10.10 binaries (64-bit) for ELOG?

I have compiled and installed the program. While the core functionalities are OK, I have run into irritating bugs in filtering and config editing that are not present in the online demo (but are in my local demo and logbook).

Hence I suspect compilation to be the cause.

For the curious:

• Saving the config within ELOG scrambles the elog.conf file

Using the COMMENT feature to add guidance to an ATTRIBUTE works great, but
is it possible to add a TOOLTIP <ATTRIBUTE> = so as to save screen space? 
For a complex entry form it is desireable to try and have everything in a
single window and this, I think, would help.

Thanks

Hi Stefan,

Roptions, or Radio Buttons.  Do you recall that on old
radios, if you gently pressed a button you could release whichever
button was already in, without selecting the new button; in other
words no selection made.

I'd like this same facility with elog.  Now I know that it can be
done by (for example) in the config file preselecting one of the
selections on reply- or indeed one that does not exist to "clear" it, 
but in this case that is not the route I'd want to take every time.

What I'd like is a (optional) button along with all the others, which 
if you click on it, it will clear any selection for that particular Roption.  
At present, once an Roption has been selected, it will persist in all 
replies unless or until an alternative choice is made.  Alternatively, if 
no selection has been made, then there is no selection on the reply, either. 
[Unless something in the elog.cfg file].

Regards,

David.
 

Hello,

I've been successfully using elog as a daemon since several years on a Linux machine. For some reasons recently I had to switch to a Windows 7 machine. Here, setting up the elog daemon doesn't work for me:

(a) running the command:

"...\ELOG\elog.exe" -c "...\ELOG\elogd.cfg"

in a windows shell works perfectly fine - logbook is up and running as set up in the cfg-file.

(b) However, starting the windows service manually (start->control panel->system and security->administrative tools->services) that was set up automatically during installation of elog leads to an error message:

"Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"

From the service settings I can verify that the service is running exactly the same command that works in (a).

Could someone please share the windows service settings? Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Christian
