Hi,

I love this software. I am not a programmer but have learned alot about the program.

I have 2 questions.   #### This is my modification ####

1. when i do a reply it will bring the original qutes with it but i have the option to change what had been entered. once i do the reply and reply to the reply i can not change the first reply but can change the second reply. This just started last week and i am not sure what has changed. i even uninstalled and reinstalled. If I try to just the HTML i tcomes up with code? If I do elcode seems to do ok just not able to stop the editing of the the last reply. Plain seems to do the same as ELcode.

2. I have also had trouble with E-Log not starting on my XP machines. Any ideas?

Thanks for sharing such a powerful program it is sweet.

Sorry but I don't get your point. See I modified your original entry above. Now I will submit this entry, and do another reply. **** And I can modify this ****

For some odd reasons, we are experiencing frequent crashes of elogd over the past few days. It has been working fine so far, but more or less out of the blue it became rather unreliable. The current configuration is installed on two servers, one running 2.7.5.-r2174 on ClarkConnect 4 and one running 2.7.6-r2233 on Debian 4.0 - both show the same problem. Each of them has an "active" group with four logbooks and an "archive" group with three logbooks. In the "active" group, there are two logbooks that share the same index (using Subdir=...) and it looks like the crashes occur most of the time in these, though that's just a hunch so far. Also, most of the crashes seem to happen when submitting an entry that has been edited. Actually, submitting a modified entry has always been strange in our logbooks: When we hit submit, we get a pop-up window asking "Submit modified entry?". When choosing "OK", the entry that has been edited is duplicated. When choosing "Cancel", it is submitted correctly.

I've been running elogd like this (to get more info)

elogd -v > elog-2233-2.log 2>&1

The last entry I get in the log when elogd crashes is:

  Same index as logbook Machine Log
elogd: src/elogd.c:727: xfree: Assertion `*((unsigned int *) (temp - 4)) == 0xdeadc0de' failed.
Received unknown cookie "wikidb_mw__session"
Received unknown cookie "wikidb_mw__session"

I did actually make a few changes to the configuration before we noticed the crashes: I added one extra attribute and a few more conditionals.

Any additional information you need: Just let me know.

Nonetheless, given that this set-up has been a great help for us - if you ever get the chance to make this work (even) better, I'd be most grateful.

Hi,

I am new to eLog, trying to make a logbook tool.  This is probably a question with a simple answer, but here it is...  I need to be able to edit the entry time for an entry as it is being made and also in Edit mode later.  We have field staff who use a paper log in the field and then come back to the computer later and create the log entries, and they need to be time stamped to reflect when an event happened, not when the entry is put into the log.

I'm guessing I'm missing something easy in my Config file, I've looked through the config examples and searched the forum but I couldn't come up with an example of how to make this work.

Thanks in advance!

I just ran into this little bug: I had defined a new logbook in my config file and suddenly got the message Attribute "Date" not allowed. While I did have several attributes starting with the word "Date" (e.g. "Date In Service", "Date Retired") I had no attribute "Date" in there. After some pondering and wildly commenting out lines, it finally dawned on me: I had used an attribute "ID" - which is also not allowed. However, it would be very helpful if the error message actually reflected that...

I'm not sure if this is the expected behavior, but it appears as though an attachment is not displayed in the list of attachments if you manually add a link to the attachment into the body of the entry.  I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to fix or change this behavior.

I will try to demonstrate with the two attachments on this entry.  There are two attachments in this entry, but only one appears in the standard view of the entry.

Hi all,

I have set my PC in Time Zone GMT+10:00 but I get GMT time in Entry time/Last edit field.

I have installed in another PC. Which has Time Zone GMT+10:00 but I still get GMT time in Entry time/Last edit field.

Please help. Thank you very much.
