My elog has a field for entering a list of email addresses, which goes into the "Email All" attribute. They need to be comma-separated, and an error is thrown if semicolons are used instead. Would it be possible to automatically change semicolons into commas before attempting to send the mail via SMTP? Neither character is allowed in email addresses so it shouldn't break anything to just do that silently. Thanks!

Hello Elog forum

Is it possible to email boolean statements, like if a checkbox is checked to email certain people?

My Configuration looks like this but dosn't work:

Attributes = Bruger, Station, Emne, Status, PM5
Options PM5 = boolean
Email PM5 = fj@tvis.net

Kind Regards

Is it possible to send an email if an attribute is not equal to a specific value?

For instance, I have a server logbook that several people are able to write to. There is one person that is ultimately responsible for this server. I would like to generate an email any time that someone other than the System Administrator creates a new entry.

Thanks,

Chris Warner

Hi,

I'm curious is it possible to send email notificaitons from elog through an smtp server that requires SSL/TLS authentication? I think it's not but I thought I'd ask.

ps. sorry for the initial blank post...

  65635   Thu Oct 25 23:55:28 2007 Entry Alan Stonealstone@fnal.govRequestLinux2.6.5-1844Email Notification: Clarification on Attribute - can value be a string?

I encountered a rather insidious feature which had me scratching trying quite
a number of things over the past couple of weeks until I compared what two
different users were doing.


I had defined the attributes:

; attributes
Attributes = Author, System, Report, Subject
Required Attributes = Author, System, Report, Subject
Extendable Options = System, Report
Options System = Data Transfer, RelVal, Skimming, Reconstruction, CSA07, Global Running, T0 Operations, T1 Operations, DataOps, ProdAgent
#Options Report = General, Fix, Info, Job Report, Problem, Shift Summary, Test, Flummoxed
Options Report = General, Fix, Info, Job_Report, Problem, Shift_Summary, Test, Flummoxed
Thread display = $Subject, entered by $author for $system on $Entry time
Quick filter = Date, Report
Reverse sort = 1

and the Email Notification:

; email notification
Suppress Email to users = 0
Omit Email To = 1
Use Email Subject = $system: $subject
#Use Email From = Author Email
Email Report General = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
Email Report Fix = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
Email Report Info = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
#Email Report Job Report = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
Email Report Job_Report = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
Email Report Problem = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
#Email Report Shift Summary = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
Email Report Shift_Summary = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov


I finally realized that logbook entries sent with a two-word Attribute value
(Shift Summary, Job Report) would not be forwarded to the CMS HyperNews
forum or Fermilab List Server. I incorrectly assumed that:

Email <attribute> <value> = <list>

an attribute could be a string.

Do I have to remove the spaces (replace with hyphens or underscores)?

  1415   Mon Sep 19 19:48:07 2005 Question Mario Apodacammapodaca@dimetek.comQuestionLinux2.5.9Email Notification and Icons
I have two questions:

1) When sending out email notifications, is there a way to surpress the entries that have been left on the logbook? I want to be notified that someone has posted, but not receive the posting in the email.


2) Is there a way to set icons to users, so that each user has a defined icon? I set up a new attribute called: Author Icon and then tried using conditional attributes to have an icon set to a specific user. When I tested by posting, in the Author Icon section I didn't have an icon, instead a text box appeared with the name of the icon.

Thanks in advance for your help.
  68640   Fri Jul 14 19:26:06 2017 Question Phil Rubinrubinp@cern.chQuestionLinux2.9.2Email Notification (Not) Initiated by elog Client Utility

Our configuration sends out e-mail notifications based on a hierarchy of attributes, and works fine with WEB submissions, but not with client utility submissions (no notifications are sent; the log doesn't show it even trying to send any: 14-Jul-2017 18:36:01 [rubinp@nn.nn.nn.nn] {Notebook} NEW entry #0) .  Since notification is the default (suppression requires -x), I presume there is something wrong with the way we're going about this.  Can you see what it is?  Could it be the parentheses in the type Problem(s), which have to be sent at the shell in the client command as Type=Problem\(s\)?

  383   Mon Jun 30 14:15:52 2003 Question Robert Keeneybrassrlk@yahoo.comQuestionLinuxelog-2.3.6-1Email Notification
Is there a way to configure elog so users that have their email notification
on only get notified for updates to logs they have access to? I've looked
all through the documentation and I can't seem to find a way to do this.

If not is there some way I can work around this without to much trouble?  I
have lots of logs and would really hate to have to make configuration
changes in all of them .

Having the message body mailed to you is very convenient but some of my
users only get to see their logs. If the body gets mailed to them they get
to see everything anyway. 

When I had to use separate password files this wasn't an issue.
