icon8.gif   In version 2.6 the themes do not work right on Windows., posted by Mark Coudriet on Tue Jan 17 16:04:28 2006 
In version 2.6 the themes do not work right on Windows. 
The URL is fixed at whichever logbook that is selected (e.g. ELOG 2.5.9-4 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css"> & ELOG 2.6.0-1 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost:8080/demo/default.css">).
icon5.gif   Attribute substitution in email configuration, posted by Adam Blandford on Wed Jan 18 02:22:44 2006 
In the logbook config file I am not able to use attribute substitution in the <string> tag for
Use Email Heading = <string>
Attribute substitution does work however for
Use Email Subject = <string>
e.g.
Use Email Subject = ELOG $logbook entry; $Category: $Subject
will result in an email subject of: "ELOG Forum entry; Bug Report; Attribute substitution in email configuration"
Use Email Heading = A new entry has been submitted by $long_name on $remote_host on $date
will result in an email heading of: "A new entry has been submitted by $long_name on $remote_host on $date"

Not sure if this functionality is intended or is a bug. An comment/feedback/suggestion would be appreciated.

I am not so bold as to log this as a bug but one of my Quicklink fields just do not work.


Sorry my late reply, but now I have fixed this problem. The update is under SVN and will be contained in the next release.

Hi Jason, how is going? Long time no hear!

What you need is following line in your config file:
URL = http://localhost:8080/

This is because elog does not know its "own" address, and therefore tries to figure this out over the network. Your laptop probably has the name "syslvester", and you run it inside columbia.edu, so it "thinks" it can reach itself via http://sylvester.columbioa.edu:8080. The URL statement above overrides this "guess".

Best regards,

Stefan

So what is your problem? Can't you access http://localhost:8080/demo/default.css ?

If so, you could use an
URL = http://{your host}:8080/

option in your config file, where you replace {your host} with your real host name.

It was not implemented, however you call this Wink

I added that in the current SVN version, so it will be contained in the next release.
icon5.gif   Access to global configuration in v2.6.1, posted by Giorgio Croci Candiani on Thu Jan 19 15:02:38 2006 
Hi,
I just installed v.2.6.1 coming from the previous 2.6.0 (on Win2000)
When I access the "configuration" function from a logbook, in the cfg page I only see two buttons in the header
(save or cancel); in the previous version I saw more buttons there ("global config", "create new logbook" and so
on), so here I'm unable to access global configuration or logbook management (except for current logbook options).
I am logged in as admin (actually I have a single-user configuration, thus no particular users defined).
I hope this report may be helpful, and not just being caused by a misunderstanding on my side ;)
Thanks
GiorgioCC

I tried to reproduce your problem, but could not. In my windows installation it looks fine. You only see the
(save and cancel) buttons only if you go to "Change [global]", otherwise you see the "Change [global]", "Delete
this logbook" etc. buttons. Have you tried with the default elogd.cfg which comes from the distribution?
