Hi Stephan

The error message I get is "Error: Command Submit not allowed". I dont know if this might be an issue but it says Response Recieved: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in the first line of the servers response

Run the elog command with an additional -v flag (verbose output), and you will see what the elogd server return. It's HTML, but you should be able to see some error message.

Good Afternoon

Im trying to automatically post an entry using information saved in a text file. I have followed the example in the users guide but i always seem to get a error message saying transmission failed. Lets say for instance I have a user named John and his password is Blue and he wants to log into a logbook called home from a textfile the command im using to log a message from the file is

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -u John Blue -l home -a Author=John -m textfile

I cant seem to figure out why i keep getting this error message. I even tried deleting the password file because i thought it might be an authentication issue.

Can anybody assist me please it would be much appreciated.

Regards

Hi Stephan I got it to work for some reason elog was complaining that my encoding of the message wasnt allowed. I allowed the lognook to allow ELcode and it works perfectly.

Thank you for the help.

  68160   Tue Oct 27 11:03:49 2015 Question kenzo Abrahamskenzoabrahams@gmail.comQuestionLinux3.1.1running more then one shell command when new entries is submitted

Hi

Im just curious is it possible to run more then one command using Execute new = <command> or will i have to run a script to run muliple commands.

I tried using '&&' to seperate more then one command but it seems that the first one only gets executed and the rest are just ignored.

Regards

The reason why im asking if it can be done using the Execute option is because I need to have the message id of the entry that was submitted and in an external script i dont have access to the variable

The command is passed to your shell, and some shells except more than one command. Most Linux shells accept commands separated by ';', which you can try yourself by entering for example: ls *.c; ls*.h

If i put the ';' into Execute the rest of the command becomes a comment thats why i was trying to use '&&' instead. If I encapulate the whole command in "" or '' then both commands are executed but the files im trying to write to gets created but no data is piped into it. When I use Execute with one command and pipe its output to a file everything works fine though.

As far as I know ELOG is recognising a configuration line as a comment only when it starts with a ';'.
I can assure you that ELOG does not treat the rest of the line as a comment when you use a ';' within a $shell() command: I do it a lot and it works fine. Here's a simple, generic example using the bash:

Preset Author = $shell(if [ $short_name = "Anonym" ] ;then echo $Author;else echo \"$long_name, $Author\";fi)
It adds $long_name to the Author field for non-anonymous entries.

Cheers Andreas

  68167   Tue Oct 27 15:41:57 2015 Question Danidroldan@cells.esQuestionLinux3.1.1 dynamic "preset text" option without remplace text if it has changed

Dear all,

Is it possible to have a dynamic "preset text" option without remplace text if it has changed?

I would like to switch the template file depending on the attribute value (Type). 

If user already started editing the text body, on change (Type) he could lose this data. 

I'm using this example code :
Attributes = Type, Subject
Options Type = One{1}, Two{2}, Three{3}
Show text = 0

{1} Preset text = text1
{2} Preset text = text2
{3} Preset text = text3
{1,2,3} Show text = 1


I the attribute type change the user lost the data, because the text has been replaced.

Any idea about how to solve it?

Thanks!
Cheers
