We have several logbooks running here with somewhat cryptic names. The comment field for the

_X_ yea Smile

I added a tooltip to the logbook showing the comment field. The status bar is a bit difficult since it requires Javascript and is not supported by all browsers. But I hope the tooltip is good enough. The modification is in CVS, you can try it at the forum.

I like it!

Thanks Stefan! That was exactly what I was looking for!
  927   Wed Feb 9 15:40:12 2005 Question Tim Fowlertimfowler1@gmail.comQuestionLinux | WindowsV2.5.6-2ELOG Command Line Utility
I am trying to use the command line utility elog. Some of the attributes 
that I have setup are multiple options. When I run the command line 
utility to create a new message, any attribute that is setup with multiple 
options will not be filled in. The syntax I am using is as  follows:

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Lab -a "Site=xxxx" -a "Area=System" -
a "Priority=Low" -a "Shift=1" -a "Status=Open" -m text.txt

Site and Area are defined in the config file as MOptions. Is there a way 
to use this feature with multiple options on attributes with the 
attributes = to one or more variables?

I just shifted our elogs to a new server and in the process upgraded to the latest debian version which is 2.5.9+r1674-1. I am just wondering how to change the default for the text body area from "elcode" to plain text? I can't see anything in the admin configuration syntax guide and the HTML default = 2 option no longer seems to work.


The HTML default option has been replaced by the Default encoding option, with which one can set the default encoding style to plain text (Default encoding = 1).

Also is there anything in particular that you have to do to get the elcode editor to work. Although the elcode buttons appear highlighting text and clicking on them doesn't actually do anything although it works fine in my browser when using these elog forums. I don't get any errors in mozilla but trying it in IE under cxoffice gives an "error on page" message in the bottom of the browser.


The ELCode editor requires the JavaScript file elcode.js to be present in the scripts directory under your elog root directory. Future installations will handle this correctly.


The installation did not include scripts directory. Where can I download the elcode.js file?

I said future installations will handle this. This feature is still in beta becaus it's not finished completely. You can get the elcode.js from CVS.

Thanks Stefan! This is an excellent application.
  1817   Thu May 4 16:01:29 2006 Question Tim Fowlertimfowler1@gmail.comBug reportWindows2.6.1-1681Elogd.exe crashes on windows
I have elog setup to send emails based on the priority of one of the attributes. When a new entry is created, the emails are sent successfully, however if the entry is edited or if you changed the attribute, elogd.exe will crash with a memory access error.

I have tried this and received the same results on different computers and different versions on Elog down to versions 2/6.0 beta 5. (it works correctly in that version).

The attribute in question is setup something like below:

Attributes = Ticket #, Site, Shift, Type, Area, System Name, Description, Priority, Status, Total Down Time, Last Revision

...(omitted config)

Options Priority = High, Medium, Low

...(omitted config)

Use Email Subject = $Site -- $System Name $Description
Use Email From = testuser@myexample.com

;Send email if priority is set to high
Email Priority High = testuser2@myexample.com

Display Email recipients = 1
Email Format = 14
  291   Tue Apr 22 11:18:00 2003 Warning Thomas Saleinnone   Several Problems with 2.3.5
We use ELOG 2.3.5 for Windows with a German language file and have found 


some new problems:




. Certain strings are not translated.


Language error: string "Plese log on by clicking on following link and 


change your password" not found for language "de"


Language error: string "A new password for user <i>"%s"</i> has been sent 


to %s" not found for language "de"




While the first string is obviously written wrong, the second one misses a 


quotation mark.






. If a user uses the new "password forgotten" function, he receives an 


email, but after having clicked the URL in the mail, he gets the following 


error message as simple text, i.e. not formatted by use of the CSS file:




Invalid URL: Notizen/?redir=%3Fcmd%3DChange%20password%26old_pwd%


3DE3ARcjI/&uname=sal&upassword=E3ARcjI/ 


Bitte benutzen Sie die Zurück-Taste Ihres Browsers ...  




Nevertheless the new password was written into the specified password file. 


(This behaviour as far as we know was also with earlier versions of ELOG.)






. If one could not log in through the button "Login", one does not receive 


an error message, but will be pushed simply back to the main page, 


status "Not logged in". (This was as far as we know was also with earlier 


versions of ELOG.)








. If you want to change as an admin the passwords of several users, it 


would be convenient, to get always back to the page, where you may choose 


the next user ... but you will be pushed back to the main page with the 


messages. (This was as far as we know was also with earlier versions of 


ELOG.)








. But the simple change of passwords for users does not always succeed: I 


have changed the password for a user A to "anuvis", the next user B should 


have gotten the same new password, but this time it was not accepted. 


Message "Wrong password". Might it be, that this goes only once because of 


an initialisation problem ? I had to edit the password file manually.








. Opera browser 7.03 simply crashes, when choosing the direct URL to our 


logbook, i.e. http://localhost:8080/logbook2. We have set a general 


password file and a different read password for each of our logbooks.


If we choose http://localhost:8080/logbook1 everything is fine. We get a 


window "Authentication required" and type in simply the read password, no 


user name.


If we choose http://localhost:8080/logbook2 the behaviour is different. We 


see the window "Authentication required" appear, then Opera crashes.


Change of the read passwords did not change this erroneous behaviour. This 


problem was not with version ELOG 2.3.4.




In Internet Explorer 6 all is okay.






. NOWRAP tag in Date column


The date column takes quite a lot of space in the logs overview. As the 
information is only of secondary importance I would prefer date and time 
being wrapped like e.g. the contributors name. Of course, I could help 
myself with a 
in my language file, but this would force a break also on the single message view.
