| Sebastian Schenk | sebastian.schenk@physik.uni-halle.de | Question | All | 3.1.4 | Re: Shared logbook and elog.cfg file across multiple installations | Hi Anthony,
the elog has a mirroring function, which synchornizes config and logs between multiple instances.
See the bottom section of https://elog.psi.ch/elog/config.html
Best wishes,

Hi,
I'm wondering if it's possible to have a shared logbook and elog.cfg between multiple instances of elog. Ideally, I'd like to have my logbooks folder and elog.cfg hosted on a nextcloud instance while running the elog service locally. I've tried this using symlinks and shortcuts on windows with no luck. I was able to install elog into my mounted nextcloud folder, but this isn't ideal as I would like this to work from multiple computers.
Any ideas or thoughts on how I can do this (if I can actually do this)?

I admittidely haven't looked through the page in a while, so I completely missed this feature. This should solve the problem, although in a slightly different implementation than what I was trying for.

| Jose Caballero | jcaballero.hep@gmail.com | Question | Linux | 3.1.4 | Unclear how to use the command line tool /usr/bin/elog | Hello,
I am trying first time to use the tool /usr/bin/elog. From the documentation is not clear to if everything must be in quotes or not, if every attribute requires -a.
Here is how my attempt looks like (changing actual data by fake one):
/usr/bin/elog -h elog-1.matrix.com -l LogBook -u jcaballero mypassword -a Team='Team Name Here' Category='Category Here' -a 'Affected service'='Name of affected service here' -a Criticality=Normal -a 'Oncall Documentation'='No modifications required' -a Subject='here is the subject line' 'here is the text'
I just get "Error transmitting message".
Attributes Team and Category are of checkbox type. Attributes Criticality and Oncall Documentation are of radio type.
What is wrong with my command attempt?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers,
Jose

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Linux | 3.1.4 | Re: Unclear how to use the command line tool /usr/bin/elog | If you use HTTPS, you have to connect to port 443 of your server, using the "-p" option.
Furthermore, you run under an Apache server, right? How do you do the redirecting to elogd? I guess you specified a subdir in the URL named /LogBook to redirect to elogd. The you use another part of the URL to select the logbook, which again might be "LogBook". Is that correct? So your full URL in the browser would be https://elog-1.matrix.com/LogBook/LogBook. If that's the case, you have to tell the elog tool that you use a subdir in the URL using the "-d" option.
