  466   Wed Feb 11 15:06:38 2004 Question Fergus Lynchflynch@alternativenetworks.com  ELOG V2.5.0Behaviour of text when using quote marks in header fields
Hi,

First off let me say what an excellent program, simple yet powerful...

I've noticed some erratic behaviour when using "quote marks" in header 
fields.  Basically all text to the right of a " disappears.  Try adding an 
entry with quote marks or replying to this post.

Presume this is a bug.

Keep up the good work

Hi Stefan,

I have two loogbook who are using the Type Derniere image = Date parameter, but I obtain a big
number instead of a formated date.

On my logbook "liste" (Look on the first attachement elog.gif please to watch the problem.)
I obtain this problem.
Here is the part of the elogd.cfg file for logbook "Liste" :
[Liste]
Theme = Bubble
Comment = Liste des routeurs / firewall clients
Type Dernière image = Date
List display = Client, Nom machine, Type, Equipment, Emplacement, Nom_admin, Pwd_admin, Maint, Derniere image
Link display = Client, Nom machine, Type, Equipment, Emplacement, Maint, Derniere image
Attributes = Client, Nom machine, Equipment, Type, Emplacement, Nom_admin, Pwd_admin, Maint, Derniere image
Extendable options = Client, Equipment
Options Type = FWL1{1}, FWL2{2}, FWL4{3}, VPN1{4}, VPN2{5}, CLIVPN-PROC{6}
{1} Preset text = FWL1.txt
{2} Preset text = FWL2.txt
{3} Preset text = FWL4.txt
{4} Preset text = VPN1.txt
{5} Preset text = VPN2.txt
{6} Preset text =
Preset Author = $short_name
Options Maint = Oui, Non
Required Attributes = Client, Type, Equipment, Nom machine, Maint
Locked Attributes = Author
Page Title = ELOG - $Nom machine
Reverse sort = 0
Quick filter = Client, Type, Maint
Summary lines = 2
Entries per Page = 50
Case sensitive search = 1



On my logbook "Image Routeurs" (Look on the second attachement elog2.gif)
No Problem
Here is the part of the elogd.cfg file for logbook "Liste" :
[Image Routeurs]
Theme = Bubble
Comment = Image Routeurs
Type Derniere Image = Date
Attributes = Equipment ,Client, Derniere Image
List display = Equipment ,Client,Derniere Image
Preset Author = $short_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Page Title = ELOG - $Equipment
Sort Attributes = Equipment
Reverse sort = 0
Quick filter = Equipment, Client
Reverse sort = 1
Sort Attributes = Equipment
Summary lines = 1
Display mode = Summary



What is wrong with my configuration ?
Thanks for answer.

Hi, I've been using the ELOG software for about a year now. I love it! But as my ELOG becomes more valuable, I become more paranoid about potential data loss. (We've had numerous close-calls with disk failures, recently.) Is there a way to download a backup of my ELOG, all at once? Maybe a command that could create a tar.gz of all the entries and attachments? Further, is there also a command to restore from such a backup? Apologies if this question is answered elsewhere. I couldn't readily find it in the documentation. Regards, --Ed

  615   Fri Jul 16 19:06:35 2004 Warning Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comBug reportAll2.5.3BUG?: Preset text = causes replication of text when re-editing a logbook entry.
With the "Preset text = " specified, when re-editing a logbook entry (say to
correct a spelling error) the text of the "Message" is replicated and placed
directly below the original text.

Commenting out the "Preset text = " line prevents this behavior.  this
occurs under both FireFox and IE6.0 clients.

After THREE tries to enter a long detailed list of questions, all have been 
replaced by just one:  why do ELOG textareas and entry forms lose all data 
if the browser goes back/forward?  Or if a submission causes an error?  
Other forms in other applications don't have this kind of data loss.

Submitting this now before I lose it again.  Will submit rest of questions 
as separate entries.

Hi,

I have been using elog for a few years and it is a wonderfull software and has been one that I can't go without. So thank you very much for making it. smiley

After about a year, I upgraded to the latest version. I noticed that it causes the system to crash. It doesn't seem to happen that often. 

I have installed this on 2 machines, one Windows 10 and one on Windows 7. Over the last week I got one BSOD on each OS. 

The elogs have different configs and logbooks. One is a simple elog that doesn't have any attachments or anything funky. Just straight text.

Please see attached a screenshot of the Memory.DMP which has happned seconds after an schedule restarted the elog service on my PC. 

I will keep monitoring and see if will happen again. But I thought I log it here anyway.

Thanks.

Cheers.

Ales.

Hi,

I am using the # character to generate automatically incrementing numbers for new messages.

My issue is that # is evaluated when you hit "New" but E-log is only aware of the new value being used when you hit "Submit".

So, two E-logs can have the same value substituted for # if two E-logs are being edited in parallel.

Maybe someone has a solution to this ?

  1512   Thu Nov 17 11:50:45 2005 Question Carlos Mateocmateo@indra.esQuestionWindows2.6.0beta5Automatic creation of new entry in another logbook
Hi

I am trying to create an entry in logbook2 when I submit a new entry in logbook1. The automatically created entry in logbook2 will have a reference to the entry that created it.

So far I have tried several ways:

1.- Using the "Execute new" I call elog to create the second entry. As the server is single-process, it locks: elog is waiting for elogd to be ready and elogd is waiting for elog to finish to accept new requests.
As my server is on a Windows machine I can´t execute elog on background.

2.- I tried to run 2 servers on different ports using the same elogd.cfd file, calling the second server from elog. This "almost" works: the logbook files are updated, but the original server must be restarted to "see" the changes.

3.- Using the "Menu text" option, I create a link to create the new entry. The problem is that attributes are not parsed: a link like this <a href="/logbook2/?cmd=New&pAttr=Value $ID">Test</a> won´t substitute $ID

Is there a way to do what I want?

TIA,
Carlos
