If you need HTTPS then you must specify the "-s" option.

You could have looked into the help of the elog command:

Hello,

 

I am trying first time to use the tool /usr/bin/elog. From the documentation is not clear to if everything must be in quotes or not, if every attribute requires -a.

Here is how my attempt looks like (changing actual data by fake one):

      /usr/bin/elog -h elog-1.matrix.com -l LogBook -u jcaballero mypassword -a Team='Team Name Here' Category='Category Here' -a 'Affected service'='Name of affected service here' -a Criticality=Normal -a 'Oncall Documentation'='No modifications required' -a Subject='here is the subject line' 'here is the text'

I just get "Error transmitting message". 

Attributes Team and Category are of checkbox type. Attributes Criticality and Oncall Documentation are of radio type.

What is wrong with my command attempt?

 

Thanks a lot in advance.

If you use HTTPS, you have to connect to port 443 of your server, using the "-p" option.

Furthermore, you run under an Apache server, right? How do you do the redirecting to elogd? I guess you specified a subdir in the URL named /LogBook to redirect to elogd. The you use another part of the URL to select the logbook, which again might be "LogBook". Is that correct? So your full URL in the browser would be https://elog-1.matrix.com/LogBook/LogBook. If that's the case, you have to tell the elog tool that you use a subdir in the URL using the "-d" option.

Not really. The full URL in the browser is https://elog-1.matrix.com/LogBook. That's why I am trying with "-h elog-1.matrix.com -l LogBook"

I have just tried with -p, here is the full output:

Hello,

 

I am trying first time to use the tool /usr/bin/elog. From the documentation is not clear to if everything must be in quotes or not, if every attribute requires -a.

Here is how my attempt looks like (changing actual data by fake one):

      /usr/bin/elog -h elog-1.matrix.com -l LogBook -u jcaballero mypassword -a Team='Team Name Here' Category='Category Here' -a 'Affected service'='Name of affected service here' -a Criticality=Normal -a 'Oncall Documentation'='No modifications required' -a Subject='here is the subject line' 'here is the text'

I just get "Error transmitting message". 

Attributes Team and Category are of checkbox type. Attributes Criticality and Oncall Documentation are of radio type.

What is wrong with my command attempt?

 

Thanks a lot in advance.

Cheers,

Jose

But this is real progress! Now elog successfully connected, and all your data was transmitted, but elogd refused your content.

A possible explanation is that one required attribute of this logbook was not provided in your elog command, or that one value of an attribute does not match any allowed value for that attribute.
Here we can only help if you post the config of your logbook.

Cheers, Andreas

PS: you did not provide the -s option?!? Just in case you lack the knowledge: providing a port number 443 does not imply the use of the SSL protocoll.

If you use HTTPS, you have to connect to port 443 of your server, using the "-p" option.

Furthermore, you run under an Apache server, right? How do you do the redirecting to elogd? I guess you specified a subdir in the URL named /LogBook to redirect to elogd. The you use another part of the URL to select the logbook, which again might be "LogBook". Is that correct? So your full URL in the browser would be https://elog-1.matrix.com/LogBook/LogBook. If that's the case, you have to tell the elog tool that you use a subdir in the URL using the "-d" option.

I don't see anything in httpd logs.

I am just reusing an entry I created via web, so the attributes are correct. Nothing is missing, correct spelling, etc.  I keep trying. 

BTW, I have just realized that the output of "elog -h" does not "man log", which is the one I have been using so far. Which one is correct?

Ok, you Apache listes on two ports. On port 80 with HTTP and on port 443 with HTTPS. If you connect to port 80, there is no fowarding to elogd, that's why Apach complains 

The requested URL /LogBook/ was not found on this server.

On port 443 using the HTTPS protocol (with -s) you apparently get forwarded to elogd. The fact that you succeeded to connect to Apache without the "-s" flag tells me that your Apache listens on port 443 with the HTTP protocol, not HTTPS. First I would configure Apache such that is also forwards port 80 to elogd. Then you don't have to use HTTPS at all (at least for testing). 

Then I agree with Andreas that you might be missing an attribute or so. You can also use "curl" instead of "elog" which might tell you more details. See https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68597
