"Full" view formatting, posted by Erik Iverson on Thu Mar 19 02:50:16 2009
|
I have a logbook I use to capture machine settings. There are many (~30) different attributes defined. I've defined the "Summary" view via "List display" in such a way that not all the attributes are displayed in the summary list, because there's no practical way to fit the 30 different attributes in 30 rows across the screen, and there's no need to have every attribute shown in the summary view. I would like to define something for the "Full" view that lets me put one (or more, but not all) attributes per line; much like the single-entry view does now, just with multiple entries. So a "Full" listing would look like
ID: 1
Attribute1: Value1
Attribute2: Value2
Attribute3: Value3
Text...
ID: 2
Attribute1: Value1
Attribute2: Value2
Attribute3: Value3
Text...
rather than
ID Attribute1 Attribute2 Attribute3
1 Value1 Value2 Value3
Text...
2 Value1 Value2 Value3
Text...
etc.
Any suggestions?
Thanks as always for a wonderful piece of software! |

Hello Stefan,
how can I activate the part like: Subscribe to logbooks: Linux Demo, Database, etc.. regarding enable automatic email notifications
|
Just check the check boxes:
Isn't that obvious?
|
Sorry wrong question, I meant how can I configure this part?
|
There is nothing to activate. As soon as you have some logbooks defined and you are using user level access ("password file = ..."), this page will show up.
|
Sorry,
was my mistake, may I,m a little bit stressed.
cheers,

Hi
Would it be possible to use the "Export to:" function with IE7 on the Forum logbook, and save the logbook.
I can do the export but saving the file with IE7 does not work. Saving the file with Firefox, Chrome, Safari works.
This makes me think that E-log is good and IE7 is bad ?

Right 
It seems to be a well known probmel with IE: http://classicasp.aspfaq.com/files/directories-fso/how-do-i-send-the-correct-filename-with-binarywrite.html
So I tried all variations there, but none of them worked. The interesting thing is that it works if you use it locally, but not with the forum (which has an additional "/elogs" in the URL).

Problem resolved. |

Last 3 days of log entries, posted by Paul O'Shaughnessy on Wed Feb 10 15:27:43 2010
|
Is it possible to create a drop down menu for the last 3 days of log entries. Currently we have the last day, month, 3 month, etc.
Reason being, after a weekend most people would like to view the log entries for the last three days. Can anyone help me out here? |

Attach multiple (many!) files at one time, posted by Eric Feng on Sun Mar 21 19:03:52 2010

Hi,
Is it possible to attach multiple files at one time? Right now I have to attach each individually, click submit, then confirm, then re-select the next file...
This is a pain if one is attaching many files as I often want to do. It would be nice to be able to select groups of files together using Ctrl and/or Shift, and even to attach a whole directory recursively.
I looked through previous threads but did not find this question asked there.
Thanks,
Eric |

Attributes for message workflow., posted by Ryan on Thu Mar 24 17:23:37 2011

I am attempting to setup an ECR (Engineering Change Review/Request) process in ELOG.
I have a logbook setup so that an original request is submitted with a status of "Approval Pending"
Options ECR Status = Approval Pending, Approved / In Progress, Completed / In QA, Closed
Once the entry is made, it is reviewed by several people who reply to the original entry and update the approval fields, adding any comments as a reply :
Options OPS Approval = Approved, Denied
Options ENG Approval = Approved, Denied
Options Director Approval = Approved, Denied
Once the final approval is obtained, they reply to the thread and update the ECR Status field to "Approved / In Progress"
This goes through our QA process, and is finaly updated with "Closed"
The problem is, I would like to keep the historical data of when the status of these entries are made. For example, in the message thread, I can see that reply #4 changed the "Status" field to "Approved". However, I can not seem to find a way for this to work with quick filtering. The quick filter always filters on the first entry on a thread, and not the last.
The other option would be to change the status of the first entry, but that seems silly as I am using replys instead of edits.
Any ideas on how to implement this "Status" field into my workflow? I am even open to losing the historical "status" and beeing able to change all entries on the thread on reply. (i.e. Reply #4 changes "Status" to "Approved", and the system changed all entries in the thread to "Approved") |

I have searched the Elog forum and docs at length for actual examples of how to use the Elog client and I apologize if I missed it somehwere but could someone please provide some actual examples of how the parmeters are used? I haven't had much success setting it up just going by the Elog command syntax quide.
What I intend to do is load a raw text file into an active logbook directly, either one line at at time or batched from a text file ("m" option).
Also, I saw a Perl script contribution somewhere on the site which appears to offer the same functionality as the above util. Just wondering why there would be two methods, and which might be the best for me to use? Thank you.

I suppose you have your demon "elogd" running and you can connect to your logbook via the web interface?
Then you can use the "elog" command to upload a text file as one entry.
If you want to split the text file to one-entry-per-line, you need to write a batch script to do that.
The usage of the "elog" command is descibed in the ELOG User's Guide: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html#misc
The command line for "elog" has to define all "Required attributes" with "-a ..."
elog -h <host> -p <port> -l <logbook> -u <user> <password> -a <attribute>=<value> -n 1 -m <text-file>
<port> can be omitted if port 80 is used, "-u <user> <password>" can be omitted if anonymous entry creation is allowed.
Here's an example to write to the demo logbook at midas (local text file /tmp/hello.txt contains "hello world")
elog -h midas.psi.ch -l Linux+Demo -d elogs -a Author=nobody -a Type=Other -a Category=test -a "Subject=hello" -m /tmp/hello.txt
I hope this helps.
PS: please never refer to a location as "somewhere on the site". |

It seems straight forward enough but I must be missing something in my elog command string. I run the client utiltiy but it always hangs after pressing Enter from the cmd window. It could be the way I specifying the host or subdir but I'm not sure. I tried multiple variations.
Some more info: For the prototype I'm just running Elog locally. I installed it to my XP in "c:\program files\elog". I verified tht elogd process is running. With the Elog page already open (ref my attached cfg file) I typed the following, observing case sensitivity, then press enter and at this point it just hangs:
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Tartan+Tow+Log -d elog -a Ticket+date="Jul26/11"
Note since all attributes are optional I only included "Ticket Date" for now until I can get this cmd working.
Please bear with me as I don't have an extensive technical background but I would be very grateful for any help as it's for a project at work. Soonest response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Alan
