Hi Stefan and Andreas

Yesterday I reported I had some issues with the latest elog: but now I can reproduce one.  
elog 2.9.2-a738232

I started a new entry, and attached three pdf files.  I did not get the problem of not seeing the png thumnbnail
this time, although that is annoying if you want/need to adjust the thumbnail image before submitting.

However, if I then look at the running processes, I have the following listed (ps -A)

23677 tty1     00:00:04 elogd
23809 tty1     00:00:00 elogd <defunct>
23825 tty1     00:00:00 elogd <defunct>
23847 pts/0    00:00:00 ps

23677 was when I started the elogd daemon, having killed off the previous daemon etc for test purposes.

23809 and 23825 appeared after a couple of pdfs were added (second and third ones to be precise).  They can only
be killed off by killing off the original running daemon.  It appears that attaching a second and further pdf
attachments to any entry generates an elogd <defunct> in the processes list, although attaching a jpg in the
middle of a list of pdfs didn't (but the next pdf did).  This is happening while adding attachments, that is the
Submit button has yet to be pressed, so it seems to be generated  when the pdf file is being processed for some
reason.

You can end up with quite a stack of these in the process list!

I never saw this behaviour with the previous version I was running, SVN2475 I think.


By the way, I still cannot send an attachment over to this server (showing a screenshot) without the 502 error.

hi there,

Is it possible to attach a default value for a radio button when submitting a new form/record, for example: 
I now have an item "Confirmed" Yes/No, and I want the "no" option to be selected by default when a new form/record is created.
Does anyone know how to arrange this?

Thanks in advance!

How do I set a default list option?
 I have an attribute called Active with options yes, no
When I do a list I want to see just the records having yes.
When required, the quick filter allows me to see records with option = no or all the records.
Thanks

Hi,

Is it possible to have a default filtered view in E-log?

Lets say we have a record with status finished on one attribute.

Is it possible to have a default list view that just shows records with this status?

I really don't know if anybody already had this problem or i just didn't 
find the solution in the documenttaion: 
 
There is a possibility to sort the log by the value of a attribute as 
well as a flag for reverse sort. anf it's quite easy to build up a 
command line with the sort attribute and value. But this only works from 
a self written command line. 
 
Is there any possibilty to make ELOG soring by default (without a 
command line option) by a other attribute than date? I would use a date 
set by the user manually to sort the log file, even the user clicks on 
the log-name.  
 
or may it be a possibility for a additional feature, like a logbook 
option "Default sort = my own date" and the logbok get sorted by this 
attribute and option by default. 
 
Would be happy about every tip! ThankX! 

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
