I changed only the screen output. The username is printed not not encrypted, to be able to check it by eye. The 
username sent over the network is and was always encrypted.

The only clue I have is to compare the network traffic you get with an email client (outlook, thunderbird ??) 
with the network traffic you get from elogd. To monitor the traffic, I use normally WireShark (formerly Ethereal, 
www.wireshark.org). You have to filter for "tcp.port == 25" which is SMTP, then capture your traffic, right-
click on it and select "Follow TCP stream". The result you see in the attachment. The strings produced by elogd 
are pink, the strings from the SMTP server are blue. In my case I don't have authentication (our SMTP server does 
not support this). In you case, you have to compare the traffic from a functioning email client with elogd.

 I could not produce this error here again, so I work on that:

There was a attribute with Type = Date, Preset = $Date.

This added following js code

  for (var i=0 ; i<document.form1.y0.value.length ; i++)
    if ((document.form1.y0.value.charAt(i) < "0" ||
         document.form1.y0.value.charAt(i) > "9")) { break }

This cause in following error 
Fehler: document.form1.y0 is undefined
Quelldatei: http://elog1.bkitech.de/Test-Maengelbericht/?cmd=Neu
Zeile: 16 
After that error none js will be executed.
After remarking the Type line, all work well.

Hi,

I want to know if it is possible to display an ID with this format: YYYY-XXXX where YYYY is the current year and XXXX a sequential number from 0001 to 9999 ?

ID Display = 2009$message id

could be fine but the year is hard coded and there are no 0 before the number.

Can you help me ?

Thanks a lot 

You cannot make this with the ID, but you can create an additional attribute which will show exactly this behavior. Have a look under

subst <attribute> = %Y-####

in the documentation. 

Thanks for the info, it saves me some time know this on beforehand.

You're right about the Windows binary, it's a lower SVN revision (2140).

Hello all,

I appear to be doing something wrong or not..
In my configuration I use an incrementation of a certain attribute (Melding)
For some weird reason it won't increment in this place, while it does in another place...

Below is my configuration (at least the part that gives me headaches..)

[Onderhoud Diversen]
Theme = default

Attributes = Melding, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Status, Onderwerp
Options Type = Preventief, Regulier, Nav Storing, Overig
Options Categorie = SensorProbes, Overig
Options Status = Wachtend, Gepland, In behandeling, Update, Afgerond
Type Planning = date
Extendable Options = Categorie, Status
Required Attributes = Auteur, Type, Unit-Lokatie, Status
Page Title = ELOG - $onderwerp
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type, Status
Preset Melding= DIVOH: %d%m%y-####
Subst on edit Auteur = $long_name
List Display = ID, Melding, Datum, Status, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Onderwerp
Summary lines = 0
Display Email recipients = 0
Email All = aapie@sukkeltje.com
Use Email Subject = $Melding, $Onderwerp - $Status
Style Status In behandeling = background-color:red
Style Status Update = background-color:orange
Style Status Afgerond = background-color:lime
Login user = person1, person2

The goal of this part of the configuration is a way to notify and log maintenance on not specified equipment.
I expect a message-tag with: DIVOH: 280109-0001, where 280109 stands for 28th of January, 2009, the 0001 is the message number of that day.
Now when I enter something in it, submit the message it will display DIV-OH: 280109-0001 as I expect, but...
When I start with a new entry I would expect DIVOH: 280109-0002 as it is the second message.. Well, simply put.. I don't get DIVOH: 280109-0002 but instead I get DIVOH: 280109-0001 again.Below the part that does work correctly:

The following part of my configuration does work..

[Onderhoud Windows]
Theme = default

Attributes = Melding, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Status, Onderwerp
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Categorie = Algemeen, Hardware, Software, Netwerk, Telefonie, Overig
Options Status = Wachtend, Gepland, In behandeling, Update, Opgelost
Type Planning = date
Extendable Options = Categorie, Status
Required Attributes = Auteur, Type, Status
Page Title = ELOG - $onderwerp
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type, Status
Preset Melding= WSOH: %d%m%y-####
Subst on edit Auteur = $long_name
List Display = ID, Melding, Datum, Status, Auteur, Type, Planning, Categorie, Onderwerp
Summary lines = 0
Style Status In behandeling = background-color:red
Style Status Update = background-color:orange
Style Status Afgerond = background-color:lime

When I copy this one, adjust it to be the same as the first one, but then without the extra things it doesn't work, and with them, well.. it still won't.. :(
I am at a loss here where the mistake is, can someone shed some light on this? I would appreciate that very much.

Best regards,

Guido

 

I tried your configuration and got the attribute incrementing correctly:

so I'm a bit at a loss, too. Maybe your browser caches the old page, so try a "Reload" on your browser or clear your cache. Maybe your logbook contains some weird entries which make the incementing break. Try this configuration with an empty logbook. Certainly the configuration options are correct.
