icon1.gif   Icon and Quick filter, posted by Franck C on Tue Jun 17 11:42:20 2008 

Hi,

I have defined a quick filter based on an icon attribute and it does not work: no result. I have defined something like your "forum elog" (with Icon comment ): in the quick filter, i see the comments (that a good thing) but whatever i'm selecting, i have no entry.

Is it a bug or i miss something in the configuration ?

Regards

ELOG is a really helpful application

Thanks a lot !!

icon1.gif   Exploit Browser Tabs to Make Anonymous Entries, posted by Alan Stone on Wed Jul 30 19:54:28 2008 

One of my shifters just managed to make an anonymous logbook entry even though the Author attribute is required.

It turns out that he had two tabs in his browser opened/logged into the Elog.  He logged out in one tab only.   Then he

did some other work on the desktop.  Then he returned to the browser to make a new logbook entry, finding the tab which

still showed the logged in menu, including the link for "New".  The Shifer is on day two, so he did not give any special

notice to seeing Anonymous in the Author field instead of his name.  He did point it out when I came in, and noted that

no warning was given about making an anonymous entry.

 

I tested the same scenario myself.  One cannot preview an anonymous entry (when Author field is a required attribute).

A warning is given.  However, one can submit the anonymous entry, and no warning is given.

icon1.gif   Is there a way to send email notification without attachment, posted by Samuel Morris on Mon Sep 8 14:22:10 2008 

Is there any way to send email notification of only the message and not the attachment. We get entries consisting of 10 MBs sometimes, and we would like to send only the message and not the attachment in the email notification. I tried restricting postfix to 1MB and using Email Format = 111 but with no success.

Thanks

icon1.gif   Moving individual messages in a thread, posted by Eoin Butler on Sat Sep 13 23:34:37 2008 

It is possible that the Move to... and Copy to... commands can be configured so that when they operate on a message that is part of a thread, that only that message will be moved, instead of the whole thread?

icon1.gif   Elogd crashes, posted by soren poulsen on Wed Oct 22 12:44:48 2008 

Hi

 

I am experiencing trouble with Elog crashing. I think it crashes during input operations (new entries are being added).

Are there any preferred methods to troubleshoot this ? Any log files I could look at ?

For now, I let "monit" supervise the process and restart it if it crashes. But I would like to get to the root cause of the problem.

icon1.gif   Installation problems, posted by George B. on Mon Oct 27 13:05:13 2008 
Hello,

I just upgraded to elog 2.7.5 from 2.6.4 on my Debian system. Here is some feedback:

1) "make" fails if libssl-dev package is not installed. Documentation does not mention SSL library requirements.

2) /etc/init.d/elogd: line 10: /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: No such file or directory (I fixed this by commenting
out that line).

3) Starting elogd: /etc/init.d/elogd: line 34: echo_success: command not found (Fixed by search/replace "echo_"
to "echo ").


Hope this helps.

George.
icon1.gif   Proxy Error, posted by Glen MacLachlan on Wed Nov 5 20:37:37 2008 

A problem recently developed for our elog...after running without much problem the elog daemon was restarted on an ubuntu server running apache2. Now the server gives 502 Proxy Error messages:

 

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /elog.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

I did a force-reload of apache after making sure the modules are enabled. I also restarted elogd but to no avail. One symptom seems to be that the GET request is empty...that is before it was:

"GET /elog/sample_elog/etcetera HTTP/1.1"

but now it is just

"GET /elog HTTP/1.1"

 

Just started out of the blue...

 

Any ideas?
