| Paul Paquette | ppaquette@town.hampton.nh.us | Question | Windows | 2.7.8.2282 | Limit elog e-mail to only people involved with an entry |
Howdy and Thank you in advance.
Can I limit an elog entry mails to only go to my e-mail, my supervisor and the person who is entering the elog entry. I have the Elog server on Windows XP Pro running version 2.7.8.2282.
Thank you
Paul

Hi,
I'm trying to implement top groups and started with the sample configuration shown in the 'Syntax of elogd.cfg' chapter of the documentation. But now I'm facing a problem with the links in the logbook selection page.
Here's my group configuration:
Group Linux PCs = Red Hat, Debian, Mandrake
Group Windows PCs = NT, XP
Top group engineering = Linux PCs, Windows PCs
Top group administration = Employees, Purchases
Show top groups = 1
The selection page for the top groups is displayed correctly, but the URL for the groups beneath the top group is incorrect. The URL for the Linux PCs group for instance is http://localhost:8080/engineering/engineering/ . The URLs for the logbooks within the Linux PCs groups is correct (e.g. http://localhost:8080/Debian/)
Has anybody an idea what's going wrong in y configuration?
Bertram

Thanks for reporting this bug. I fixed it in the intermediate release 278-4 which is ready for download.

Thanks for the quick bug fix.

Is it possible to automatically go back to the list view in summary mode after submitting a new message instead of displaying the new message?
I know it's possible to display a page from a file after submitting a new message by using "Submit Page = <file>".
It would be nice to be able to use a command like "Submit Page = <command>" where I could insert "?cmd=Back" as in the "Start page" command.
Thanks,
Mike

I just implemented a new flag "List after submit = 1" which does exactly this. It brings you to the summary page after the submission of a new entry. I needed the function myself. The change is SVN revision 2327 and will be contained in the next release.
|
Sorry so long getting back to you, Stefan. Just wanted to say "thank you". This new function works great! |

Hello,
I have a problem when I try to edit an existing entry. I want to add an attachment. I can upload an attachment to the existing entry, but submitting it does not seem to work. The added attachment is not visible. But it exists in logbook directory. The only way I found to add it, is to use "Resubmit as new entry" which is not quite what I want. Is it a design feature or perhaps I'm doing something wrong ?
|
I need to reproduce this problem in order to fix it. Do you see the same problem on the "Demo" forum?
https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/
|
I'm sorry for the false alert :(. I was trying to submit edited entry using "upper submit" (just under the logbook name strip). I have tried "lower submit" (under Attachment 2) and it works with no problem.
|
Well, also the "upper submit" button should work. I just tried at the demo logbook, and it worked fine (there is however now the problem that one has to click Submit twice to make it work). Can you check yourself?
|
Stefan,
I have checked it and it behaves exactly as you have described it. Perhaps this "double click" has led me to that false conclusion ?

Hello,
Is it possible to run multiple instance of elog on the same windows box where each instance listens on a different port?
Thanks.
Behdad.
|
Sure. Just start with one subdirectory for each instance with a separate elogd.cfg file, where you specify a different port. Note however that there is also the concept of "top groups" (see documentation) which lets a single instance of elog look like several independent installations.
|
Great. Thanks Stefan.
I also am already using the top groups. This is just to totally separate my work and home elog.....I have to admit I am really an elog addict. 
This elog and the idea behind it is absolutely brilliant. Very useful, easy to maintain, migrate, configure, easy to use, versatile, etc... Good on you all.
Cheers,
Behdad. |

| T. Ribbrock | emgaron+elog@ribbrock.org | Question | Other | 2.8.1 | Re: Strange problem with dates - need debugging help |
Stefan Ritt wrote: |
The problem is most probably related to the time zone. elogd contains a function:
/* workaround for wong timezone under MAX OSX */
long my_timezone()
{
#if defined(OS_MACOSX) || defined(__FreeBSD__)
time_t tp;
time(&tp);
return -localtime(&tp)->tm_gmtoff;
#else
return timezone;
#endif
}
from which you can see that there is a different behavior between different Linux flavors and OSX/FreeBSD. Maybe you need an additional
|| defined(__OpenBSD__)
if the pre-compiler directive __FreeBSD__ is not defined on your system.
[...]
|
BINGO! That was it - thank you! I've added the || defined(__OpenBSD__) in the place you described above and now the dates are correct. While I was at it, I also had a look at what other ifdefs there are for FreeBSD and the only other one I found was also in elogd.c:
#if defined (_BSD_VA_LIST_) && defined (__FreeBSD__)
I'm far from being a C programmer, but I did some quick and dirty compile tests with various ifdefs set and apparently, _BSD_VA_LIST_ is not set on OpenBSD, so I guess that this statement does not need modification. I will keep my eyes peeled for strange behaviour, though... 
Cheerio,
Thomas
P.S.: One thing I noticed is that the OpenBSD variant of gcc throws these warnings when compiling elogd.c:
gcc -g -funroll-loops -fomit-frame-pointer -W -Wall -DHAVE_SSL -I../mxml -o elogd src/elogd.c crypt.o regex.o mxml.o strlcpy.o -lcrypto -lssl
/tmp//ccHhMZfy.o(.text+0xd2f): In function `int_vasprintf':
src/elogd.c:826: warning: vsprintf() is often misused, please use vsnprintf()
/tmp//ccHhMZfy.o(.text+0xae8): In function `xstrdup':
src/elogd.c:736: warning: strcpy() is almost always misused, please use strlcpy()
/tmp//ccHhMZfy.o(.text+0x13c7): In function `my_shell':
src/elogd.c:1197: warning: sprintf() is often misused, please use snprintf()
/tmp//ccHhMZfy.o(.text+0xf0ae): In function `el_correct_links':
src/elogd.c:5178: warning: strcat() is almost always misused, please use strlcat()
I'm not certain whether this is specific to this gcc variant, but I seem to remember that the OpenBSD folks added some extra warnings and suchlike as part of their overall code audit, so I thought I'd mention it. |

Hi Terry,
it is not exactly clear to me what you want.
You can define many different types of attributes to an entry.
Like this logbook has "Icon", "Author", "Author Email", "Category", ...
That automatically creates a form for the input.
Or you can have some pre-filled text in the text area, like a pre-defined table.
E.g. with the following line:
Preset Text = input-form.html
Every new entry will now contain the content of the file input-form.html
which could be some table or list, ...
|
Thank you very much for your replies Stefan and Andreas!
I've played with the Preset Text = input-form.html however when I open a new form it just has text in there stating "input-form.html. I feel like I'm missing a way for the Configuration to find my html file.
I feel like I am close but I'm missing one piece of data. Here is what I'd like to have, when I click "New" I'd like this table to be automatically inserted in the body.

If you see only the file name it means that elogd cannot find the file, it's probably in the wrong directory. Have you put it into the "logbooks" directory? Like c:\Program Files\ELOG\logbooks\ ?

Yes thanks Stefan! It is working now.
Thanks again! |
