Re: Create past Elog entry., posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue Apr 3 10:19:07 2018

David answered the question already.
I would distinguish if this is a once-in-a-year event, where you are willing to edit the logfiles as an administrator to fix it -
or if it happens more weekly, and you want to enable the users to fix it themself.
If it happens once a year and you don't mind to do it yourself: write a little self "how-to" and do it like David suggested.
If it happens more frequent and you prefer your users to fix it themself: introduce a "when" attribute as described in elog:67712
Cheers, Andreas
PS: Changing entry IDs $@MID@$ is only for people who know exactly what they are doing. You need to change all references to the IDs as well (Reply to: attributes) and all cross references (like the one elog:67712).

Hello, Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere, but I could not find info.
I am wanting to submit a new elog entry (that should have been) for a past date, to predate log entrys currently in my system.
I assume I must manually create a new .log file. What ID# should I assign to this entry? Should I sub-increment (i.e 33.1)? I presume the correct think to to would be to automate ID# increments in all sucessive logs with a script (python).
Please advise.
Thank you,

Yes, I can help with that: you've tried to put the picture into the text body. Try to make it a normal attachment, that'll work always.

Hi All,
I just installed elog latest version. I can see that my chkeditor (HTML encoding) is pretty simplified with respect to the version i can see there. Why this ? For example, it does not offer the possibility to upload images.
Could you please help me ?
Thank you

Re: Email Config, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed Apr 18 13:43:36 2018

SMTP host = ...
MUST be set in the [global] section of your configuration - it will likely not work when you try to set it for a specific logbook.
I don't see how ELOG can send an automatic email after a date expired.
But you could set-up a script that checks for expired entries, and if there are any it'll send out an email. You can use any http connection to do the query using the find command (e.g. curl).
To get the right URL, just make the find from the web form and copy the URL that gives you the desired result.
Hope that helps.

Re: Elog ID entry bug at >99999 entries, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Fri May 4 16:05:32 2018

I am not sure I understand your bug report.
I can easily create IDs greater than 100'000 (see attached picture), but that is not your problem, or is it?

We have a possible bug with elog that the ID for an elog entry at over 99,999 entires reads as 10,000...
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

Well, in my example the ID link worked just fine.
There could be a string length limitation, but it could be as well the way you are creating the ID that is the source of the problem: I would need the part of your elogd.cfg that defines how you format your ID in order to try to reproduce your problem.

Hi Andreas, I'm working on the same experiment as Joseph who submitted the bug report.
You are right, IDs greater than 10^5 are created no problem. The issue is with the internal elog link, in this case of the form elog:SequencerEvents/XXXXX The link generated uses only the first 5 digits of the message ID, and therefore links to the wrong message. In the two attachments you can see our sequencer event number 100098, first displaying the message where all of the ID is displayed and secondly in "full" view of the elog front page. Here, the "ID" column contains a link with the string: elog:SequencerEvents/10009. Our problem is that we often use this string to paste into other elogs and generate a link to the sequencer event message. However, since the string uses too few digits, we end up with a link to the wrong message

Re: about shiftcheck, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Tue May 15 10:35:32 2018

An attribute is similar to a variable. Do you know any programming language that allows to start a variable with a digit? I don't.
The solution is very obvious: start your attributes with a letter.

Hi all,
I try to implement a shift check list for our facility. The attributes called "a1, a2, b1, b2 etc" are used in original shiftcheck.html， However, we would like to use "1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2 etc". So I try to change the name of checkbox in shiftcheck.html and the attributes in elogd.cfg file to "1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2 etc". The elog web page can display the attributes like "1.1, 1.2...", but the checked value of "on" seems not working. And I have used wirshark to monitor the http package, the request message seems correct, but the service response seems can't deal with attributes like "1.1, 1.2...", so is there a way to work around?

Re: Report Generating Tool?, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed May 23 16:19:48 2018

Here's a little example for a query for this logbook:
curl -f -s -k "https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?jcmd=Search&mode=CSV1&last=7&Category=^Question%24"
You can easily process this output with perl, to create reports. I use it for example to create counts for specific enties, like "Bug reports" that are not "closed", and show the results in some other user interfaces.
Cheers, Andreas

Switch to the "summary" display (try it with this forum). You get headers (like "category"). Clicking on it sorts by that attribute. Then display "all" entries, or use the "find" option to search in certain time periods, then just print the web page.
Alternatively, expeort logbook entries as CSV files, load them into a spreadsheet program, and do the sorting and printing there.

Has anyone developed a report tool for elog? I would like to be able to sort certain items and send them to either a printer, or an email (external to my own use).
If not, any ideas on an easy means of doing this? I write a lot of Perl, so that would be an option for me if the text is easily obtained.
Thanks

Re: number of entries in Login user list, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Thu Jun 14 12:37:22 2018

Hi Janusz,
You can change the following line in elogd.h and recompile:
#define MAX_N_LIST 100
That'll change the login user list limit. But it'll change other list length as well - which should not do harm unless you are very short of memory.
I don't see the Admin user list limit of 10 - aparently that is hard coded somewhere deep within (or I've just missed it).
Cheers, Andreas

Hi,
could it be possible to increase the limit of entries in Login user list from 100 to somewhat reasonably higher? Like twice or 3 times as much. Similar limit exist also on Admin user list, which is afair 10, could this also be increased?
best
Janusz
