Re: FCKEditor not working correctly on a Windows server., posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue Jul 21 15:02:19 2015

Just to clarify: I can easily use IE11 to access my 3.1.1 version of ELOG. I run the server on a Linux box (SL6) but I don't think that this makes any difference.
I repeat my guess: ELOG is probably not installed properly on your WIndows server. My suggestion would be to move the old installation to some backup directory and do a clean reinstall. Several files are not overwritten when you just update an existing installation, maybe some of them are too old for the current version of ELOG to work properly.

I've browsed the web for the error and apparently it is appearing with a variety of IE versions in combination with certain versions of the CKeditor.
Sorry, I can't help you with the problem: only found problem reports, no fixes. Therefore my advise (for now) would be: either use the old ELOG version or use a different browser. Microsoft anyway announced the end-of-life for IE with Windows 10.

Sorry for the typo,of course I meant IE 11.
I do get on "Error on page" error. After switching on the developer tools, I get the following output:
{exception} The value of the property 'dndInit' is null or undefined, not a Function object. I get this error when I trying to make a new entry.
If I use ELOG version 2.9.2-2455 it all works fine, but that version has an different editor.

Seriously "IE 1" ??? Javascript was invented in 1995 just before IE 1 came out, I doubt it was supported by IE 1 ;-) I guess it was supposed to read IE 11?
As far as I know the Javascript code of the CKeditor runs on the client, I would not expect the server to be the culprit. I would first try a different browser, then check if the ELOG installation was complete (check for warnings?)
Do you have a Javascript error console in your browser? It should tell you something about what is going wrong.

Re: IE 11 - Text Edit Toolbar Not Working, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Mon Aug 17 09:27:45 2015

This reply has been written with IE 11 using the embedded HTML editor of ELOG. Therefore it is obviously not a problem of ELOG 3.1.1 with IE 11.
It could be a problem with your ELOG installation or it could be a problem with you IE 11 configuration. Can you use the HTML editor of this forum with IE11? Did you install ELOG 3.1.1 on top of an existing ELOG installation?
There was a recent post in the forum about IE11 and the HTML editor in the Forum. Did you read it?
Cheers, Andreas

Hi,
I've been exploring elog. I find when using IE 11, the text editor formatting buttons don't work with HTML encoding selected. The entire toolbar is grayed out. It appears to work fine with Chrome. Any ideas or direction to look? elog v3.1.1 is running on RedHat EL5. I've tried the rpm installation, and source code compilation and installation with no change.
Any input would be greatly apriciated!

Re: Send e-mail based on a hierarchy of attributes?, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed Aug 26 09:18:17 2015

Yes, this can be done. See below for an example configuration.
Attributes = entrytype, category
Options entrytype = routine{1}, problem{2}
Options category = software, hardware
{1} Email category software =
{1} Email category hardware =
{2} Email category software = 1@opq.rst, 2@uvw.xyz
{2} Email category hardware = a@bcd.efg, h@ijk.lmn

Is there a way to distribute e-mail based on the consideration of several attributes and values? A simple example: attributes type and category have several different values, say, routine and problem for type and hardware and software for category, but one would only like messages sent when there's a problem to different sets of hardware or software types. Thus:
Email
type routine category hardware = no message
category software = no message
type problem category hardware = a@bcd.efg, h@ijk.lmn
category software = 1@opq.rst, 2@uvw.xyz

Re: Draft saved is treated as an entry edit, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Mon Aug 31 09:38:38 2015
|
Hi Daniel,
this is an undesired side effect of a new feature. I wouldn't call it a bug ;-)
There is no straight forward way for elog to distinguish between a "Submit" and an automatic save. Therefore the "... on edit = ..." kicks in when an entry is saved automatically.
I guess Stefan can figure out a workaround, but for the moment I would sugest that you just switch off the auto save feature -- if you want to keep your save history:
Save drafts = 0
Cheers
Andreas

Hello.
In Elog i have attribute called "Zmieniano" (eng. changed) which should store how many times entry was edited. If entry was not edited it should have only preset value "oryginalny wpis" (eng. oryginal entry), but when I edit it, it should have also date, time, and person who make edit (this is made by "Subst on Edit Zmieniano = $Zmieniano<br>- Zmiana $date przez $long_name z $remote_host)".
From version V3.1.1-3f311c5 I have problem with that.
When I add entry, and entry is auto saved, then auto save is shown in the attribute "Zmieniano" (eng. changed) as an next edit, which I dont want. Entry from attached screenshot was not edited, but in "Zmieniano" (eng. changed) attributes it has two values:
- Oryginalny wpis (eng. oryginal entry),
- Zmiana 27.08.2015, 10:52 przez Daniel Sajdyk z serwerownia.sr.lez (eng. Changed 27.08.2015.... )
The second value is autosave time.
Is this a bug?
Regards
Daniel.

Re: Creating ELog Links not working properly in HTML Editor, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Mon Sep 28 06:29:57 2015

I can confirm this bug.
But I don't think this has to work as you've described it, when using the HTML editor: if you use HTML, you can use the link feature of the editor.
But that link feature does currently not work at all with internal elog references, not even a simple elog:1"> elog:1 (as you can see here). I suppose there is some more work to do for Stefan on that ;-)

Hey,
the syntax for creating links to other elog entries has a small issue in the HTML editor. The link will not be created properly if there are whitespaces in the name of the logbook. Using ELCode (or in a simple attribute field) the whitespaces can be replaced by "+", but this does not work in the HTML editor. The work-around would be to use ELCode mark-up instead of HTML.
Example 1 (this should work): elog:Contributions/47
Example 2 (this will not work): elog:Config+Examples/11
Example 3 (will also not work): elog:Config%20Examples/11

Re: elog client overwriting attached files when editing existing log, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Mon Sep 28 06:45:03 2015
|
The "elog" command has no "append" feature. You can either create a new entry, or you can overwrite an old entry. Therefore this is not a bug but the intended bahaviour.
I admit that the documentation is misleading, since overwriting an existing entry is called "editing":
[-e <id>] Edit existing message
I interprete your posts that you would like to have two new features for the "elog" command:
- to append text to the body of an existing entry
- to add additional attachments to an existing entry
Without a specific application in mind I would like to add a request (for consistency):
- to modify a specific attribute of an existing entry.
Cheers, Andreas

Hey,
I think this is a "problem" of the elog client, since it simply replaces the data. In most cases this is what you want, but since I wanted to have the option to append to the acutal message I built a function to first read-back the entry and add to the message instead of replacing it.
I just played around a bit and found that the attachments will be even disconnected, if you do not specify the -f parameter but just edit a different part of this entry.
A work-around for this is tricky. I tried to write to the "Attachment" attribute directly (-a "Attachment=Filename'), since then you coud read back the data first and manually add the filenames again. But this does not work.
Since the attachments are not actually removed, the only option I see is to modify the logbook file entry on the server by manually re-adding the filenames to the "Attachment: " line.

Using the elog client to upload atachments, I can successfully send attachments to an existing elog, however the existing attachments are lost.
I have tested using the elog client version 3.1.1 and elog client version 2.9.2 sending to elogd 2.9.0
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l test -f file1.png -f file2.png -e 249 -v -x
This works great, the text contained in the elog post is retained, however all attachments are lost and replaced with those sent by this command.
Can anyone provide some tips? I am not sure if its a problem with the client or server.
Thank you in advance!

Re: Creating ELog Links not working properly in HTML Editor, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue Sep 29 08:50:30 2015

Hi Stefan,
yes, I know that a plain text " elog:1" works in the HTML editor, too. But if you put " elog:1" in the URL field of the link dialog, then ELOG screws up: you get the text and the link points to link type "URL", protocol "<other>", URL "1".
Or more precisely, the HTML source looks like the following:
<a href="1">elog.1</a>"><a href="1">elog.1</a>
(I've replaced ":" by "." here in the source, to avoid another iteration of links by ELOG).
That is not what I would have expected:
either it should have been remained unchanged, or it should point to the right URL of the entry elog:1 (the latter case preferred :-).
Cheers, Andreas
| Stefan Ritt wrote: |

Right, spaces won't work. But others work. Andreas, if you just put elog:1 without any link etc. just as plain text, it will be converted automatically into a link.
A workaround is to explicitly specify a link to an elog entry. Press the link button from the editor toolbar, enter a name and copy the full URL from the browser address bar, like here: https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68129. If you switch to "Source" (Top left editor toolbar, you can changed the link name manually, like here.
