icon1.gif   Elog won't start, posted by Jean-Philippe Bertrand on Mon Jun 22 16:08:59 2009 

We are currently having problems with Elog, I never had a problem installing it before but with my last 3 install I can't get it to work. We are running under Windows XP, the installation works perfectly but when I try to use the shortcut pointing to the localhost 8080, I get an error page from Internet Explorer telling me that the server cannot be found. I've rebootied the computer to make sure the server was running but still the same problem. Is there a basic requirement I should look at (Dotnet versionX or specific DLL required)?

icon1.gif   (my) Firefox breaks Elog with this config file, posted by Michael Husbyn on Wed Jun 24 13:23:49 2009 elogd.cfg
Hi, Did a fresh install on a Windows 2003 server (and tried it on my personal computer) After startup I can click on Norway/nor, and then the server just stops responding. I see in the log nothing, the last line: Received unknown cooke "style" Then it stops responding and after a few seconds I see the dos window returns to commandline prompt. Probably a very bad config file. On Windows XP it informs we of Dr Watson, memory could not be read message. Using Firefox 3.0.11 But if I use IE 7, no problem at all.. Any suggestion? Best regards Michael Husbyn

 I'm trying to use gmail to send password recovery e-mails, I get this error when I submit the email address.

"Error sending Email via "smtp.gmail.com": 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. 2sm5111524agd.34"

 

Any help or insight would be appreciated.

icon1.gif   Wrong error message if invalid attribute is used, posted by T. Ribbrock on Mon Jul 27 10:20:14 2009 

I just ran into this little bug: I had defined a new logbook in my config file and suddenly got the message Attribute "Date" not allowed. While I did have several attributes starting with the word "Date" (e.g. "Date In Service", "Date Retired") I had no attribute "Date" in there. After some pondering and wildly commenting out lines, it finally dawned on me: I had used an attribute "ID" - which is also not allowed. However, it would be very helpful if the error message actually reflected that...

icon1.gif   Odd problem (bug?) with certain attribute, posted by T. Ribbrock on Tue Jul 28 16:30:46 2009 

I have the following simple test logbook:

; General
List display = Edit, Hostname, OS, Size
Entries per page = 150
Quick filter = OS
Date Format = %d/%m/%Y
Summary Lines = 0

; Attributes
Attributes = Hostname, OS, CPU,Size
Required Attributes = Hostname
Sort Attributes = Hostname

; Message part: log is text only, but elog is allowed
Default encoding = 0
Allowed encoding = 2

For some strange reasons, I'm having problems with the "Size" attribute, which I have added later. If I start adding/editing entries, at some point, the "Size" attribute will stay at "0" and will not accept any further changes. I've tried to pare down the config to maybe find which statement could be causing this, but to no avail. The only thing I can say is taht id doesn not seem to happen if the configuration consist of the sole line

Attributes = Hostname, OS, CPU,Size

I'm quite puzzled as to what is going on here (the original problems stems from a more complicated logbook) - I'm not even 100% sure whether this happens due to a bug or not.

 

Regards,

icon1.gif   Pre-populate Attachments in URL, posted by Erik Iverson on Thu Aug 6 22:29:12 2009 
Is there a way to pre-populate the new entry window with one or more attachments? Per the documentation, this is easy to do with attributes, i.e., http://localhost:8070/demo/?cmd=New&pauthor=joe&ptype=Info as a URL or bookmark will do it. I'd like to do the same thing with attachments, for example http://localhost:8070/demo/?cmd=New&pauthor=joe&ptype=Photograph&attfile1=picture1.jpg&attfile2=picture2.jpg might prepopulate two attachments, giving me an edit window all ready to enter the brief description represented by the two pictures.
icon1.gif   Fix text prevents user from editing text during creation, instead of just edit, posted by Allen on Mon Aug 24 21:47:14 2009 

When we set Fix text = 1, according to the syntax, this should prevent users from modifying the text field during an edit, but it looks like it is blocking access at both time of edit and creation, meaning you can never add anything to it.  Is that the intended functionality?

icon1.gif   fckeditor update, posted by Arno Teunisse on Tue Aug 25 21:08:51 2009 

Hello

Just a few fckeditor related questions. How do elog versions and fckeditor versions relate. ?

Can I just drop another version of the fckeditor over an other version?  What things should I consider when doing so ?

thanks for you're time.
