Hello.

I think to test Elog in Mac G5 with OSX 10.4.6.

In the manual is following installationtext:

"Installation from the tarball:
Download the latest elog-x.x.x.tar.gz package.
Expand the compressed TAR file with tar -xzvf elog-x.x.x.tar.gz. This creates a subdirectory elog-x.x.x where x.x.x is the version number. In that directory execute make, which creates the executables elogd, elog and elconv."

The problem is when i try to run the command "make" in ~/elog-2.6.1 subdirectory. I get following message:
-bash: make: command not found

Now, Im not an "UNIX-hacker" so I will be glad if anyone maybe can help me?



Best regardīs

Typically one would install the Gnu compiler series and with that come 'gmake'. Barring that, and not knowing anything about OSx, if OSx comes with its own compiler series then make might be somewhere on the system but not in your path. Go to http://gcc.gnu.org/ and see if you an find a pre-built version of gcc -- all I found mentioned "darwin". Perhaps Apple has something in the way of a development colleciton?

eLog allows one to add custom headers or footers as well as include Cascading Style Sheets. I believe there is a post somewhere in here from Stefan indicating that javascript can be added through one of these methods . . . hold on, a simple search, yes Stefan mentions it at http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1837

I appreciate your posting of the JavaScript. However, I have no idea what
to do with it. The page appears to be generated by some elog daemon. I do
not know how to hook into that.

Just compiled 2.6.2-1714 and "Top text" and "Bottom text" interpret everything as "text" --- nothing is interpreted as a file to be included, unless there is a new syntax.

I dropped back to SVN1699 and same problem, then moved the file to the elog root directory and it works fine. Seems that the current version isn't finding the file, regardless of where I put it (root or in 'resources' directory). Perhaps another directory?

Stefan, I found the source of the problem. When you moved some files to "logbook_dir" you also told the code to look in "logbook_dir" for top and bottom text files:
void show_bottom_text(LOGBOOK * lbs)
{
   char str[NAME_LENGTH], slist[20][NAME_LENGTH], svalue[20][NAME_LENGTH];
   int i, size;

   if (getcfg(lbs->name, "bottom text", str, sizeof(str))) {
      FILE *f;
      char file_name[256], *buf;

      if (str[0]) {
         /* check if file starts with an absolute directory */
         if (str[0] == DIR_SEPARATOR || str[1] == ':')
            strcpy(file_name, str);
         else {
            strlcpy(file_name, logbook_dir, sizeof(file_name));
            strlcat(file_name, str, sizeof(file_name));
         }

The documentation indicates that the location dir should be "resource_dir".
  1933   Thu Sep 14 22:59:39 2006 Question Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comQuestionAll2.6.2-1714Why are Preset fields blanked out?
The snippet of code below sets an attribute to a date depending on the selection. Problem is, if attribute ApprovedDate was previously set, selecting any other value for CRStatus will blank out ApprovedDate (the same occurs for CompletedDate). Why would this be occurring when the conditionals are mutually exclusive?
##################################################
# Define CRState
#
Options CRState = PENDING{a}, APPROVED{b}, HOLD{a}, REJECTED{a}, COMPLETED{c}
{a}
{b} Preset ApprovedDate = $date
{c} Preset CompletedDate = $date
