Francois,

Did you ever get an answer or figure out how to preload Options from a CSV?

Thanks,
Jimmy

I'm trying to send an email based on an attribute, in other words, a lookup and not $user_email of the author.

For instance, if I set a an attribute "Assignee" with a valid user full name (i.e. John Smith), I'd like to look up John Smith's 
email address from the password file and send him an email. I can't seem to find it something like that in the docs, I can write 
a script to do that, but was looking for a less cumbersom way of doing it. Thanks in advance.

OK thanks Stefan.

Thats another programming language I'll have to learn then. :-)

The Elog config I am just getting to grips with but Java and Scripts are a bit beyond me.

Did you try the options

  • Summary lines = x
  • Summary line length = x

as documented in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#flags ?

It works nicely with plain text entries; it has some difficulties with HTML, since it has to remove the formatting and that disturbs the line count.

Cheers Andreas

I use a elog which has a text field to show log entries:  https://classis01.roma1.infn.it/elog/calib/     In the "Summary" view there are only 3 lines of about 40 characters shown, so often the entry is cut off even though there is plenty of space in the text box for longer lines.   To see the full entry you must click on the ID number.   Is there any way to configure the Text box to show longer lines?   Thank you.

I did the following on CentOS 6.7 (Should work for Fedora and RHEL as well):

yum install -y wget

wget http://midas.psi.ch/elog/download/RPMS/elog-latest.i386.rpm

yum install -y elog-latest.i386.rpm

This should install all the required dependencies.

Hi Tim,
starting with ELOG version 3 all entries are moved into sub-directories for each year.
If you move the files back from the sub-directories and restart elogd, then the entries should appear again in the logbook with ELOG 2.9.2.
 
I don't know how to solve your other problem. Maybe you should talk to someone locally who can administer your windows server?
Cheers, Andreas

Hello there,

After several years of great ELOG usage I decided to upgrade our ELOG server.  I am using it to keep 
a logbook of my students.

ELOG runs as a windows service but since I cannot access or change windows services (only have access to the
ELOG directory) I upgraded by installing the executable to my laptop then copying the new ELOG version over the server installation.  

Tried this first on my laptop going from V2.9.2-2475  to the last version 3.1.1 and this worked without a problem.

When I tried to reproduce this on the server  all the data is there but ELOG displays it as if no theme was installed. (using the default
by the way)  No colors, no formatting
... at first I thougt this was because the copy was not complete but a second try reproduced the same result???

Tried going back to the old version but then ALL data was gone (structure and all logbooks still there, but data in logbooks gone) ....
Used -v switch to debug and the logging displayed an MD5 hash mismatch, so the logbooks could not be opened.  A restore fixed this ....
I guess upgrading means changing the logbook structure?

Anyway does anyone have any idea why the upgrade loses formatting ??  Tips are welcome
