68792/1 Illistrates the problem, we use this ID often to cross reference from out datalog...
Is this a know bug we can find a fix for? We are using: elogd 2.9.2 built Jul 14 2015, 18:58:06 revision |
Elog Crashes, posted by lance on Mon Jul 20 09:26:41 2009

Stefan,
Our log is crashing on a regular basis and I have been unable to identify the reason. Now the if the log crashes that is not a major problem however when you try to stop the daemon from the services it fails to stop. This means that the daemon cannot be restarted. The only way then is to start killing processes. This is not something I want none experienced guys to do.
Looking at the processes is look like the elogd.exe is still running and doesn’t die when you try to stop the daemon service.
I checked the times it was crashing with events in the elog logfiles but there was nothing actually happening at these times. It seems something is causing it to just hang.
I have attached the eventlog files for you if you have any ideas I would appreciate them.
I have not run the log in verbose mode as I have thus far been unable to redirect the output of the screen in order to see what is happening. If you have any tips on how to redirect the output I would save the file for off line analysis. Our log is used 24/7 therefore it is critical that it be kept running so if I was to run it with the –v option the guys would have to restart it and I would lose the data.
Any help is much appreciated
Regards,
Lance |

Elog & SSL Export to CSV , Problem, posted by Chuck Brost on Wed Sep 16 16:37:35 2009
|
|
We use eLOG with IE. Once we turned on SSL, it is no longer possible to "Export to CSV" and save the output.
The error that we get is:
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.
This is documented on Microsoft's site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316431
It is considered a feature with no fix. Basically the browser is honoring a request from the server which is "Pragma: no-cache". Problem can be reproduced in IE versions 6 through 8.

Edit of multiple posts, posted by Finn Junker on Fri Oct 11 14:16:58 2019

Hello Elog Forum
There is i ELOG the function to edit multiple posts eg. to change the staus from "ongoing" to "finished" -> in danish translation "igangværende" and "afsluttet", see the attached pictures.
When I select multiple post and want to edit them to status "afsluttet" i get the "udklip_2.jpg" entry form and change only the status to "afsluttet" (Finished)
The result is a error informing that the attribut "gem oprindelige værdier" does not exist. As a test i changed the text in the translation file from "Keep origianl values = gem oprindelige værdier" to "Keep origianl values = Keep origianl values" but the result is the same error: Attribut Keep original values does not exist.
Is there a solution to this or is or is mutiple editing of post not allowed?
Kind Regards Finn |
Edit from summary view, posted by Francois Cukier on Mon Feb 25 19:10:07 2013

Good day,
I was wondering (and I searched for :) ) a way to directly edit an entry while in summary view instead of having to first click on the entry then click on Edit...
I mean, in summary view, every row entry is clickable to access the entry itself (except email witch open email client), so instead to open it, can it be edited directly ?
Is it possible ? |

Edit entry from command line and appending attachment, posted by Andrea Capra on Sun Jun 26 01:47:02 2022
|
I would like to edit an existing entry by adding new attachments at each call of elog from the command line.
If I issue
elog -h localhost -p 8XXX -l test -f /path/to/file_0.pdf -e N -x
and then
elog -h localhost -p 8XXX -l test -f /path/to/file_1.pdf -e N -x
file_1.pdf replaces file_0.pdf, while I'd like entry N to have both pdfs.
Is there a workaround?
