ELOG repository moved from CVS to Subversion, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Oct 7 17:18:32 2005

The elog repository has been moved from CVS to Subversion for various reasons. Those people who accessed the CVS repository in the past now have to do it in one of two different ways:
- Use the new ViewCVS gateway. This gateway now can also directly produce tarballs for the current repository snapshot
- Use anonymous Subversion access:
svn checkout svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/elog/trunk elog
svn@midas.psi.ch's password: svn
(you might have to enter the password several times...)
svn checkout svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/mxml/trunk mxml
svn@midas.psi.ch's password: svn
(you might have to enter the password several times...)
If there is any problem accessing the new repository, please let me know. |
Trying to remove "mailto:" from the email address, posted by Matt Kimball on Wed Oct 12 23:59:13 2005

We are using ver 2.5.4. As users enter new requests into the system, they would like email notifications. I have added the $user_email into a "notifications" section that we created. The email address that gets entered is "mailto:user@domain.com". Is there a way to remove the "mailto:"? Attached is my config file.
Thanks

The "mailto:" is there for good reason. After you submit the entry, elogd converts the "mailto:" into
<a href="mailto:user@domain.com">user@domain.com</a>
so the browser shows the email address as a link. If you click it, the browser automatically opens your email client with the email address already in the "To:" field. The same works in the main text body. So if I put "mailto:stefan.ritt@psi.ch", it gets converted automatially to "stefan.ritt@psi.ch", a feature many people rely on.
Now from your request it looks to me like you want email notifications, so you put
Email System CareWare = ..., $user_email
In that case the "mailto:" gets automatically stripped during the email notification, so the user_email gets entered and will be used correctly for the notification. |

I hope you can help me Stefan.
The problem that I am having is when someone request a account on elog I received e-mail message to activate there account. I click on the link from my e-mail to activate the account it takes me to the logon page. I log on and then I get a massage that the web does not exist.
What I found out was the elog Damon stops, and I have to restart it and everything work fine.
Here is a copy of me Elog config.
Also can you tell me how you set up the Subtext and the Show new entry buttons on the main page of the elog.
Thank for your help |

I tried with the current version and could not reproduce your problem. Can you try to increase the login expiration like Login expiration = 240 for ten days. If you then click to activate an account and you have been logged in less than ten days ago, you will not be asked to logon. Does the problem then still occur? |

No the problem does not occur when I am still log on. |
