Hello,

I downloaded the latest file and installed but the version number stayed at 
2.5.8-2 and did not change to -3. I stopped and restarted the service and 
reinstalled a couple of times as this is just a demo experimental base I 
had it overwrite everything, but it stilled stayed the same.

Also is there a way to change the display of the default date. It uses 
allot of space in the date column.

Thanks

what is the default value for "Author" when replying to a log entry ?  I now see that for each reply to a log entry, the value of "Author" is set to the value of the author of the original entry - this makes it very hard to see which user has replied to a particular log entry, especially when users start replying to replies etc.

This is with elog 3.1.4-3 on CentOS 7

Hi,

I have been using ELOG for a while and I love it.  It is a default installation on Debian Lenny and ELOG 2.7.8.  I am having problems with the deamon script, I can stop the service by doing /etc/init.d/elog stop but I can't started.  When I do /etc/init.d/elog start I get this error: "Starting ELOG daemon: elogdCannot open "elogd.cfg": No such file or directory"

Somewhere there is a bad path to the elogd.cfg which is in "/usr/local/elog"

I would appreciate any help I can get.

Thank you.

Here is the scrip:

[code]

#!/bin/sh
# Init script for ELOG.
# Recai Oktas <roktas@omu.edu.tr>

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/elogd
NAME=elogd
DESC="ELOG daemon"

# Always run as daemon.
ARGS="-D"

# Admin might change some command line options without touching this script.
if [ -f /etc/default/elog ]; then
        . /etc/default/elog
fi

test -f $DAEMON || exit 0

set -e

case "$1" in
        start)
                echo -n "Starting $DESC: $NAME"
                start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid \
                        --exec $DAEMON -- $ARGS >/dev/null
                echo "."
                ;;
        stop)
                echo -n "Stopping $DESC: $NAME"
                start-stop-daemon --oknodo --stop --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid \
                        --exec $DAEMON -- $ARGS >/dev/null
                echo "."
                ;;
        reload)
                # Do nothing since ELOG daemon responds to
                # the changes in conffile directly.
                ;;
        restart|force-reload)
                echo -n "Restarting $DESC: $NAME"
                start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile \
                        /var/run/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON -- $ARGS >/dev/null
                sleep 1
                start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile \
                        /var/run/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON -- $ARGS >/dev/null
                echo "."
                ;;
        *)
                N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
                echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload}" >&2
                exit 1
                ;;
esac

exit 0

What is the input format expected by the elog client for a required Datetime defined field when inserting a record? (Eg: October 26, 2016 = ? in the field's data parameter).

I have read some prior posts on this and the indication is that the input needs to use epoch time, however even when I enter 1477493161 or 0 the client still flags the variable data as missing. If this is in fact the format I shoud be using then I can provide a sample input and output message to illustrate my problem.

Hello users,

When I configure an attribute with "Type <attribute>= date", in the new entry form a clic on the calendar symbol does nothing.

Reading the source code I see it's trying to open a window named "cal.html" through javascript (function opencal) but this file doesn't exist anywhere in source elog files.

Thanks

 Hey there,

Trying to record birthdates in ELOG ... field type being date results in error:

Can this be avoided?  I like the fact that one can use the date picker to enter birthdate
