Hi, Stefan,
I cannot checkout due to the following error:
------------
$ svn checkout svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch:/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/elog/trunk elog
ssh: savannah.psi.ch:: Name or service not known
svn: Connection closed unexpectedly
------------

It seems that my PC cannot find the host savannah.psi.ch within CIAE. Maybe it's the problem of our DNS server. Anyway, what is the IP of savannah?

Hi, Stefan,
The days from Oct.1~7 are our Nation Day's vacation, so I delayed the translation to Chinese. I just finished these files today:

  1. eloglang.zh_CN-GB2312 : This is for simplified Chinese using GB2312 encoding.
  2. eloglang.zh_CN-UTF-8 : This is for simplified Chinese using UTF-8 encoding.
  3. eloghelp.zh-CN.html : Help file for elog in simplified Chinese.
  4. elcode_zh-CN.html : The help file for ELCode in simplified Chinese.
  5. elogd-zh_CN-GB2312.cfg : Demo configuration file for simplified Chinese with GB2312 encoding.
  6. elogd-zh_CN-UTF-8.cfg : Demo configuration file for simplified Chinese with UTF-8 encoding.

I have to provide the language files in different encodings because the elogd cannot creat new logbook file named in Chinese with GB2312 encoding under MacOS X. The default charset under MacOS X is UTF-16, and elogd works with UTF-8 while processing Chinese contents and logbooks named in Chinese.

I want to make elogd display the date in Chinese format. Please tell me howto.
Thanks.

I usually access hosts in LAN with their IPs. But elogd seems to prefer hostnames to IPs. I cannot ask each one to add the hostname to their system config file while they visit my host. I encounter several problems which seems to be related to the hostname resolution:
  • I can visit remote elog service through IP and port, but cannot submit entry and cannot open the config page remotely. For example, my powerbook's name is "exaos-pb-12" and its IP is 10.10.2.96. I run elogd on my PB and try to access it through URL http://10.10.2.96:8080/ on host 10.10.2.99. While I submit a new entry or open the config page, my firefox alway blames: "exaos-pb-12.local could not be found. Please check the name and try again."
  • Sometimes, all the images, colors are missing. It looks like that my firefox cannot find the correct URL of these images or CSS files. It might be the same problem of "cannot find hostname".

As the title.

I find some new strings from the warnings like this:

Quote:
Language error: string "HelpELCode" not found for language "chinese"


I have added these new string to the languages files in Chinese. I think:
"Enter name of hypelink" should be "Enter name of hyperlink".

Yes, the "URL" works. Thanks!

Executing "make" on MacOS X is OK, but "make install" failed due to the following error:
/usr/bin/install -m 0755 -d /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/man/man1/ /usr/local/man/man8/
/usr/bin/install -m 0755 -o bin -g bin elog elconv /usr/local/bin
install: bin: Invalid argument
make: *** [install] Error 67

The reason is that the account "bin" and group "bin" are missing on MacOS X. I also found that the following lines in "Makefile" doesn't work:
ifeq ($(OSTYPE),darwin)
CC = cc
endif

I have fixed this problem. The diff of Makefile as following:
diff Makefile.darwin Makefile.origin
====================================

< BINOWNER = bin
< BINGROUP = bin

The modified Makefiles have been attached.

Ok, fixed in the current subversion repository. Better write such things by personal mail to me, since it might not interest the elog community very much.

Sorry. Wink I will mail you first next time.
