 I haven't found anything in the forums about this. Apologies if its a duplicate.

I am fairly familiar with ELog, use it for multiple purposes on 5 different Virtual Servers at work. 

Currently looking to do some updates to one of the instances with the Date Type setting.

We have 17,000 entries all which have had manual entries for a Date Attribute for the last year and 8 months.

Due to regular entry errors on part of our contractors using it, (Eg: using "Aug" instead of "08", or using "-" instead of "/"), I want to change over to using the date type attribute (Type <attribute> = Date).

However the problem i found, the moment i save this in the config, and go to the list of entries, the date has changed on all of the entries to 12/31/1969. Which is BAD for our operation. So after removing the Type Date Setting the dates go back to normal.

Is there anyway to retain those dates so they display as they are and then only new entries would fall under the new date type setting?

Syntax manual didn't help much for this issue.

The problem is, that the existing entries have a string content for this specific attribute.
An attribute with a "date" type content should contain a integer number, which represents the seconds of the epoch (starting with zero on 1-Jan-1970 at 00:00:00).
 
What you need to do is writing a script that reads all *a.log files in the logbook directory and converts lines of the type:
<attribute>: <text>
to lines like
<attribute>: $(date -d "<text>" +%s)
 
Unfortunately elog does not provide you with such a tool.
But since you have to write it now anyway now, you could submit your code to this forum

“Equipement Incriminé” and “Equipement impacté” have the same list.

The displayed list for the both attributes is the multiple conditions result coming from the choice of “groupe incriminé or impacté, sous ensemble, selection, and localisation”.

So if I have to program the list twice, it will be twice bigger.


Do I need to program the same list twice for the two attributes or is there a simple command to say that the two precedent attributes are equal?


I don't understand your problem. The picture you attached, was this some ELOG output (it looks very different than the usual one...)? Do mean you have two attributes with the same "Options <attribute> = ...,..,.." list? With "multiple conditions" you mean that you do a search in ELOG with a condition one one attribute, but in the filter list both attributes having the same option list are shown. Is this correct? What section of the configuration file are you talking about?

Best regards

Do I have to program the list for "Equipement Impacté" or is there a simple command to say that "Equipement incrimé" and "equipement inpacté" have the same list?

Thanks in advance

Ok, now I understand. No, there is no simple way, you have to specify both lists explicitly. But it's just a copy and paste in your editor Wink

By the way, have you discovered Google Translate? Like http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fmidas.psi.ch%2Felogs%2FForum%2F2115&langpair=en%7Cfr
Not perfect, but readable. I know a Korean and a Japanese guy who do not speak English but talk to each other via email with this automatic translation tool Korean->English->Japanese and back. Amazing.

Two ways:

  • Submit your entry in plain mode (insted of ELCode)
  • Put a \ in front of anything which is turned into a smiley, so ;) gets converted into Wink, but \;) does not get converted

I realise that's possible, but things are getting converted into smileys that aren't intended to be smileys. Specifically, when I enter a question in brackets, the end bracket is converted into a smiley. (Like this?) should be (Like this\?). That is very annoying, and to be honest, I don't need the smileys. An option to switch them off would be the best thing.

I agree that the ?) smiley is annoying, so I changed it to ?-) which should prevent it from showing up in questions in brackets. I updated this server (you can see the effect above), the modification is committed to subversion.

Thanks a lot! I'm going to pester you though - it would be really good if there was an option to turn them off completely. Surely it can't be a huge amount of work... ?
