  69259   Tue Nov 17 12:10:07 2020 Cool David Dunneddunne@seven.com.auQuestionLinux3.1.4Style <attribute> and Cell Style <attribute> on the same row

Query

(FYI, OS = FreeBSD, Elog Version as showing on logon box = V3.1.4-)

Is it possible to use both Style <attribute> and Cell Style <attribute> on the same row?
For example, have a Logbook containing several Attributes and display a subset of those attributes in Summary Mode. Two attributes are of interest for this query which are part of the attributes displayed in Summary Mode, attributes ‘Assign Line’ and ‘Service’ 

If the ‘Attribute Assign Line = Assign 1’ then shade all cells in that row #808080
but if the ‘Attribute Service = 1600’ always shade that cell #7A5776 

Config file includes
Style Assign Line Assign 1 = background-color:#808080
Cell Style Service 1600 = background-color:#7A5776

The result is the row gets shaded #808080 if ‘Assign Line = Assign Line 1’ but fails to shade the Service cell colour #7A5776 if it equals 1600 

Extract from HTML source for the ‘1600’ cell when both conditions are correct shows both background-color values are present and the cell is styled the first value listed (which is Style Assign Line Assign 1 = background-color:#808080 but I always want #7A5776 for cell Service when it is of value 1600)
.
<td class="list2" style="background-color:#808080" style="background-color:#7A5776"><a href="../Daily/1">1600</a></td>  

Thank you,

David

Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting a sensible timezone to be attached to e-mail that gets sent out when messages are posted. I'm using Postfix, not sendmail (Mac OS X Server uses this beginning with version 10.3). In this set-up, the 'sendmail' program is a front-end for Postfix, not the real thing. I suspect that there are subtle differences that cause this problem.
Instead of something like "Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2004 14:46:16 -0600", the "-0600" is replaced by a large number that doesn't correspond with anything I can figure out. This is the sort of thing that does no real harm, but the notebook users keep complaining
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. -Joe

  67006   Fri Feb 4 00:11:09 2011 Question T. Ribbrockemgaron+elog@ribbrock.orgQuestionOther2.8.1Strange problem with dates - need debugging help

I have just installed elog 2.8.1 on my OpenBSD 4.8 server (I've added the necessary Makefile patch to "Contributions"). Everything seems to work fine, however, I ran into a very odd problems with the dates of the logbook entries: When I start a new entry, the current date/time is displayed correctly. When I submit the entry and look at it again, the date has changed to some value in 1996 . I've checked the actual logbook file and there, the entry has a Date line like this:

Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:53:28 -13049141
 

The "-13049141" looks very suspicious to me - but I have no idea whatsoever why this happens. I had elogd running with -v, but that did not give me any hints. Any ideas how to debug/resolve this would be much appreciated...

 

  67842   Mon Mar 30 14:46:28 2015 Question Tim Scheltim.schelfhout@fixbrussel.beQuestionWindowsELOG V2.9.Strange browser behaviour with chrome?
Hello there,

I have been using ELOG for 4 years now and all of a sudden I see a strange behaviour.
As you can see in the screenshots below I have configured 6 logbooks (tabs) ... only 2
display (colors in CSS?) correctly as configured.
There haven't been any changes recently configuration wise .. but I suspect my chrome
has been upgraded silently.

Any ideas why one logbook (see screenshot 2) called Kandidaten would display
correctly and the other called DSP doesn't?
The first screenshot displays all rows in blue and purple letters ....
The Logbook Stagiairs even has multiple behaviours .... some of it sub books display correctly
and some don't.

I have a new colleague since a few days who uses the ELOG as well but using Internet Explorer
and she doesn't have this strange behaviour. I can rule out configuration error since
I stripped configuration and added verbosity logging level up and nothing was detected.

Is this possible solely due to chrome update (of which I am not even sure).
I looked at the CSS source of both screenshots and I notice that in the first case (wrong!)
there is no CSS class attributed to the TD elements.

Anyway I can understand that the browser displays everything wrong ... but this behaviour
I cannot explain.

  67688   Wed Jun 11 19:18:06 2014 Question Chuck Brostbrost_chuck@solarturbines.comBug reportWindows2.9.1-2435Strange Error, Service hangs when record is deleted.

I have 4 services running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 machines, 4 separate logs, only one of them is doing this, but that could be because only one of them is trying to delete records once they are posted, I cannot say.

On that one log, everything runs fine until they try to delete a record, and they are doing it under the admin login, but the service hangs.  anyone trying to log in get the 404 error that the page is not available.  to clear it I have to open Manage/Services and then Task Manager.  First I kill the process for that log book, then I can restart the service and everything is back.. trying to stop the service and then start it, or just restart the service, this does no good, in fact, it will hang at stopping the service.. it is not responding at all.  this happened to the same log when I had this on the original Windows Server 2003, so it is not new.. they just don't delete things for a long time, then they seem to do it every week, more than once.. and usually at night or on the weekend. (are they just doing it to mess with me?  Maybe, but I do not think so since it would not get me in trouble if I were busy, out of town or just not home and could not get to it until the next business day and they know this..

Any ideas what could cause this?

  67731   Tue Dec 16 01:15:40 2014 Question Eric Quinteroericq@caltech.eduBug reportLinux2.8.1Strange Behavior in "Find" Function

Hi all,

We've been happily using ELOG for years, but ran into an odd problem when replacing the old Solaris server that ran the ELOG with a newer box running Ubuntu. 

Basically, when I try to search the log, the URL seems to be malformed. I.e. the form produces the query string:

?mode=summvry&reverse=0&reverse=1&npp=35&m&y&Authorthor=ericq

Instead of a functional one like:

?mode=summary&reverse=1&npp=35&Author=ericq

We're running v2.8.1, since we like using the global write password mode; our log is viewable here: http://nodus.ligo.caltech.edu:8080 Any ideas what could've gone wrong? Installation was pretty straightforward, the code compiled happily on the ubuntu machine. 

Incidentally, I notice this logbook is running V3, using CKeditor. Any hints when these might be available for public use?

Thanks!

Steve Jones wrote:
I have come across an issue where an attribute value is "blanked" upon either editing or replying. The interesting thing is this is a logbook entry that was "Moved" from one logbook to another, all under the same Top Group. All configs are done under the [global <topgroup>] so the attribute is not being reset on purpose. Most interesting of all is this only happens:

  • if the attribute is "locked" (the logbook being moved "To" locks most attributes)
  • if the attribute is of type "date"
  • if the logbook entry had been "moved" from another logbook


If the logbook entry is subsequently moved back, all works as it should - even the locked date attributes.
temporary workaround is to "unlock" the date attributes - which really messes with things if people decide to change the dates.

Hi,

Is it possible to store ELOG back-end database files in version control so as to synchronize multiple ELOG
instances?

Has anyone tried it? Any obvious show stoppers to such an approach?

Cheers,
-Brett.
