Hello, dear ELOG's gurus.
Please help me to understand a problem with mirroring function.
It appears in ELOG V3.1.4-a04faf9f - the last official Windows release, as well as previous 3.1.3 Windows release, which I have checked for comparison.
When I'm using a manual configuration with "mirror server, cron, user" options for one (master) of two servers, it operates well, except the situation, when a new entry is submitted at the second (slave) server.
For example, for a new entry with a real ID#2 at Slave its logfile gives "NEW entry #0", so logfile of the master server gives "MIRROR: Error receiving message: Received wrong entry id "0"".
After that Master deletes this entry at Slave "MIRROR delete remote entry #2".
In case of mirror functions in both .cfg files (Master to Slave, Slave to Master) both servers hung on after the first mirror process.
Now let's imagine, what I want to do.
Master, as a main-operation global log, is off-operation, Slave automatically becomes a reserv-operation local log with full information from Master due to previous periodic mirroring.
Users work with Slave, submit new entries - all with #0 ID.
After repairing Master starts active mirroring and just deletes all new entries from Slave.
It seems, that the problem is not with mirroring, but with a new entry ID, as was mentioned in https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68850
Were these ID#0/mirror problems resolved somehow or may be it is not a problem, but simply my errors in ELOG configuration?
Is there a chance to get an up-to-date Windows-release with working both-sides mirror function and all other addings after V3.1.4-a04faf9f ?
Best regards,

Hello,
I have a question concerning the following situation:
There is a one logbook with two possible acces methods (defined in config
file) one for readonly access and one for read/write access. Both entries in
the elogd.cfg file pointing to the same logbook.
When an allowed person enters a logbook entry with an email notification the
link to the message is given inside the email.
This link points to the read/write logbook entry.
Is it possible to alter the link in the email notification that it points to
the corresponding readlonly logbook entry?
Thank you for hints, best regards,

For demonstration, I created https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/8
The Find search for category aaa(bb) does not give results.
A quick filter corrects the value to aaa\(bb) and delivers results.
I made a simple fix and submitted it as PR to the bitbucket repository. |

Nearly correct, just follow the note: specify a logbook via the -l parameter.
So if you logbook is called "linux", you enter
elogd -a youtheman -l linux |
