Notify email recipient of attachments without including?, posted by Chris Green on Wed Jul 27 17:38:25 2005
|
Hi,
Our elog is going to be taking some large attachments. I've disabled the attachments from going out in the email, but I'd like email recipients to know that the post has attachments associated with it. Is there a mechanism to do this already, or would it be an enhancement? I'm looking for something like:
Email Notify Attachments = 0 | 1 | 2
Where 0 = no notification,
1 = number only,
2 = list
... independent of whether attachments are included with the email itself.
Thanks,
Chris. |

i'm getting white background and no icons anywhere.
so tried to install in a clean location as it comes out of the box with no changes. get white background, no colour.
tried moving css files, graphic files, etc, around - nothing.
emptied bowser caches (IE and Opera)
deleted appropriate cookies
stop and started many time.
and still at the end of the day - i get a white background only, no colour what so ever.
also get page not found when clicking on a row to edit entry.
example: http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/1
is record #1 in demo table, elog can't display it when i click on it in the list window.
any ideas? |
That's strange. Can you check if elog finds it's own host properly? The CSS file should be under
http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/default.css
and if you look at the HTML source of you standard page you should see something like:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/default.css">
Could it be that elog places something else than "dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us" as the host name? If so, you could override this with following statement in elogd.cfg:
URL = http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/
That should also fix your other problem. |
OK tried all that and nothing. html source reads like it should.
I can see the discussion/forum here site as it should be
I updated a working setup from 2.54 to 2.60.beta3 and I get the white background with no colours on the restart of Elogd. Going back to 2.54 brought back the colours.
this is the source <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://ISE-DEVEL1-OLD/default.css">.
Works in 2.54, does not seem to work in 2.60beta3
I've tried coping the default.css file to everyplace i could think of and then a few more places. 
This has happened on NT 4 server, 2000 server, and XP client machines. Brand new installs (server never saw elog before), upgrades in place, etc, etc, etc. Wish we could run linux in the shop.
Tried in the cfg file:
Resource dir = c:\e-log
Logbook dir = c:\e-log\logbooks
Theme = default
CSS = default.css
This is so strange.
Any ideas on where to go in trouble shooting this? |

think I figured it out- had to make explict most of the default settings: resource, logbook, url, theme, css and so on.
so this is done. |

I added Email Format = 64 for only attachment names. So you could set Email Format = 111 to get everything except the full attachments. |

I'm not satisfied with this solution, I rather would like to fix the problem at the source. So can you remove the explicit directory settings, then stip down the config file to the bare minimum where the problem happens, then send me this file so that I can reproduced it. Do yo use SSL, stunnel or a proxy?

Thanks for this. Will verify as soon as someone posts to the (now live) logbook.

Changes in Comment and Elog Index page?, posted by ralphb on Wed Aug 10 11:28:30 2005
|
Just updated to ELOG V2.6.0-beta4 from V2.5.6-2 and I note a couple of changes:
- HTML code inculed in elog.cfg "Comment" lines were previously rendered, now they are not. e.g. "Comment = Some comment
<A href="http://somedomain.com/some.html" target="_top"> Some link text</A>" Is this change deliberate, or is the functionality likely to return? Any workaround?
- The "Several logbooks are defined on this host" elog index page was previously collapsable, now it is not. Same questions as previous.
Thanks & best regards,
Ralph. |

OK, I've fixed that one with "Expand Selection page = 0" |
