elogd hangs, posted by Alan Grant on Fri Aug 18 05:28:16 2017
|
I have a very long standing problem with elog over the last few versions where almost daily the service will hang. Cannot even Restart elogd, that just hangs. Clients experience Page not Found. I can only get the service reinitialized by rebooting the VM machine. I have Elog verbose logging On plus a number of external triage monitors running but nothing is yielding clues beyond the precise time the hang occurs. Aside from providing the Config and log files what else can I provide for you to assist, and what other triage measures can you suggest I try? FYI, there can be up to 20 users at one time doing searches (not updates), and I've trimmed the depth of log files that can be searched so that the CPU/service doesn't bog down but that hasn't helped either. Inserts happen in the background using the elog client app (about 2 or 3 inserts per batch at sporadic times). |

Sharing logbooks among "Top Groups", posted by Satyajit Jena on Sun Aug 20 10:07:57 2017
|
Hi,
I am currently trying to configuring elog top groups, which are supposed to separate from each other. However, I would like to have a common logbook that should be visible in each group. Is there a way to share logbooks among Top Groups for example
Top Group Electronics = Elec1, Elec_EEE, Ele2
Top Group Processing = P_AA1, PPP2, Elec_EEE
Top Group Monitoring = Mon1, Mon2, Mon3, Mon4
Top Group Data = Data1, PPP2, Data2
I would like logbook to be viewed:
- Electronics:
- Processing:
- Monitoring:
- Data:
- Data1
- PPP2
- Data2
- Mon3
- Mon4
Could you please suggest me if it is possible to set in this way (Color codes t show the common sharing).
Many thanks and regards,
satyajit |
Problems with german_UTF8 language, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Mon Aug 21 11:22:09 2017

Hi Stefan,
since recently (a few weeks) ELOG confuses the language translations.
Individual language strings are translated into garbage; most other strings are fine.
Currently I see the string "please select" translated into "ressed" (see attached picture), instead of what's written correctly in the language file "bitte auswählen".
But with every restart the corrupted strings vary: other strings are affected and other garbage strings are shown - some of them unreadable binary code (see Attachment 2).
I have the same version running in English: I see no problems there.
Kind regards

CSS reference in Email for private logbooks, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Mon Aug 21 14:27:50 2017
|
We operate ELOG in an intranet. Many logbooks do send out emails; several use HTML content formatting.
If I watch HTML formatted emails from the intranet, then everything is fine.
If I try to read them from home, my email client hangs when it tries to read the CSS file from out intranet (URL: https://elog-gfa.psi.ch/SLS/elog.css).
Is there a way to set a URL for the email CSS?
Then I could simply copy the CSS file to the internet accessible location and the emails would be properly formatted in the intranet and from home.
I've tried to use "Use Email URL = ", but it turned out that this will change all base URL's in the email BUT the one in the CSS :-(
So I would need a config "Email CSS URL = " to set this.
Here is a patch that does what I want, but it might have some side-effects I'm not yet aware of:
7636,7643c7636,7638
< if (absolute_link) {
< if (lbs != NULL && getcfg(lbs->name, "Email CSS URL", str, sizeof(str)))
< strlcpy(css_base, str, sizeof(css_base));
< else if (lbs == NULL && getcfg("global", "Email CSS URL", str, sizeof(str)))
< strlcpy(css_base, str, sizeof(css_base));
< if (css_base[0] == 0)
< compose_base_url(lbs, css_base, sizeof(css_base), FALSE);
< } else
---
> if (absolute_link)
> compose_base_url(lbs, css_base, sizeof(css_base), FALSE);
> else
Cheers

HTML in attribute values, posted by Richard Stamper on Tue Aug 22 14:19:43 2017
|
When one has "Allow HTML = 1" to permit HTML in attribute values, is it only a subset of HTML that is rendered?
I find that <br> and <a href="..."> tags are properly rendered, for example, but lists with <ol> and <ul> are not. |

Hide logbook tab when not authorized, posted by Stefano Bonaldo on Tue Aug 22 18:29:02 2017
|
Hello, I read carefully the manual, but I didn't find a way to hide the logbooks in the logbook bar and in the initial logbook selection for which the user does not have the access. So, if a user1 does not have the access to a specific logbook, user1 is not able to see that logbook in the bar and neither in the initial logbook selection. How can I do this without using the top groups? |
