We're using elog as our CMDB, but now management wants us to employ "web services" and I fear going to another tool (elog is fitting the admins like a glove, so we'd rather keep it)

Is it possible to configure elog to be able to run as a web-service ?  (basically getting xml-output according to a specific (SOAP) schema instead of html output)

At the moment no support for a Web Service is planned.

You do not have to change the environment variable, this is all handled inside elogd. I fixed teh above error in SVN revision 2098. Can you try it?

is there any new option i can use/configure ?

i still get the english datetime

Eingabezeit: Thu Mar 27 09:27:41 2008

As I told you, you have to upgrade to SVN revision 2098 or later.

 

i've updated to ELOG V2.7.3-2104

Well, then you should get German locale. I just tried with the same version and following elogd.cfg, so I don't know what you are doing wrong:

[global]
port = 8080
language = german

[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject

Have you tried the "RSS Title" option?

Thank you for pointing out the method to identify Last Edit as a datetime type so that it will sort properly. I now have created Last Edit in several 
preexisting logbooks. 

I want to use 
Start page = ?rsort=Last Edit
to set the default sorting of each logbook to be by Last Edit. 

However, all of the entries made before I added Last Edit have no value for that field, so they are all grouped together at the end of the sort. So I 
decided to go through the older entries and set Last Edit equal to the original entry date, as a starting value.

I tried to use the command
Subst on edit Last Edit = $entry time
but it gives a "-" for the Last Edit value when I edit an entry. 

I think this is because $entry time is not a variable supported by Subst. Can you add that support, or else tell me if you know a better way to go about 
doing what I'm attempting? Is there perhaps a way to globally process a group of entries in a logbook and set one attribute's value to be equal to 
another's?

Thanks
