Hi Laurent

I've found the attached zip files in post 69491. The one containing the ELOG probgram libary won't run on my test laptop - the service wont start
There is in the same thread a post from Just Keijser containing only the executables, and it won't start either. Starting the elog.exe though gives me that the exe is missing 2 dll files which can be downloaded seperately.
It is not easy cause there are several versions of the 2 dll files and only one working, but now my elog reports version ELOG V3.1.4-1ebfd06c

But this cant be the solution - if so the windows version is put to the grave

Kind Regards Finn

Hi Finn,

I've just tested the same archive on new laptop with Windows 11. 
I unzip it and double-click elogd.exe file, bypass defender warning and the server is running.
To test, i open localhost:8080 on web client and it displays the demo logbook.

Btw i didn't test it as a service. What are the 2 libs you said it misses ?

Hi Laurent

OK, i can recreate the unzip to folder and run elogd.exe and it works :-). If i unzip to the folder of the version installed (with the windows installer) where it runs elogd.exe as a service, the service won't start.

The problem with the dll files only applies to the post from Just Keijser containing only the executables (3 files) and these executables repport missing: libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll and libssl-1_1-x64.dll

These versions are a black box for me, are the important?

The unzip version (your version) reports: ELOG V3.1.4-395e101 (I think this is the same number as for the 2018 installed version)
The version with the 3 exe files (my version) from Just Keijser reports: ELOG V3.1.4-1ebfd06c
This site reports: ELOG V3.1.4-bcd7b50

Kind Regards Finn

Hello,

I noticed the wikipedia article of the ELOG got deleted in November 2021.
With the reason: "Poorly sourced article, and I was not able to find good sources myself."

I could access the old article through web.archive.org, but for the project it would be good, if the article got revived.

I agree. I ahead ;-) I think it is not a good idea if the ELOG author pushes on that, but better someone else.

Best,
Stefan

It looks to me like only an author of an article can contradict a deletion. I did not find a single method to even comment on the deletion.
I am not an Wikipedia expert, can anyone suggest on how to push for the article to be restored? Or do we just write it again, until people stop deleting it?

I have requested an undeletion of the article. The article was deleted  "PROD", which means that someone tagged it. And if noone removes the tag, it could be deleted.

I could revive the article. So in the future, One should have an eye on it and maybe update the current version of the software.

If there iy an paper on the elog, maybe it could be cited for more creditability.

It was now moved to the Draft space (which I did not even now existed so far): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:ELOG
