SSL connection drop with large content, posted by HyonSan Seo on Mon Aug 10 07:56:43 2020

Dear all,
I had some difficulty to upload large files (>20MB) with SSL connection. I think it is also related to https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68636 |

Your solution sounds quite good, I will incorporate them in the distribution.

Record ID corruption, posted by Frank Baptista on Sun May 3 15:58:24 2020

Hi all,
I've encountered an occasional problem that seems to be exacerbated by having a message with many replies.
In our use of ELOG, we run lengthy environmental tests (often several days) in multiple temperature chambers (one logbook for each chamber). |

Hi,
I've had problems in the past due to a dodgy pointer creating branches despite a "No branches" in the configuration file.
It would be very interesting to see what the 200428a.log file looks like with these entries: in the screenshot they appear to be shown in time order, but |

Hi David,
Thanks for the quick response! Well, I'd have to say that the sequence is as tangled as it looks in the logbook -- I've attached
a copy of the log file for your reading pleasure. |

Hi Frank,
There are two interesting points about the log file.
1. Entry 5658 is timestamped later than 5659, but is earlier in the entry list. It also is "In Reply to" 5659. despite |

Hi David,
Well, you've made some very interesting observations, and raised some excellent questions. So, I went back and did some homework, reviewing
a number of logbooks to find instances where this strange 'record twist' occurs. You had asked, "Do you have enough information to decided |

Hi Frank,
Good bit of detective work. To me it suggests that something as yet undetermined occurs, that, when the 57th reply happens, causes the
issue. If that "something" hasn't happened, all is well. Apart from Heinz varieties (not true, in fact), 57 isn't an obvious |

I tried to reproduce the problem with a fresh minimal logbook (the demo one coming from the distribution). Made 60 replies and all went well. So I wonder
if it has to do with some special settings in elogd.cfg. Can you reproduce the problem with an empty logbook and an edlog.cfg which contains just the minimal
settings? |

Search feature in ELOG, posted by Illam Pakkirisamy on Sun Aug 2 18:45:18 2020

Hi,
Is there a search feature in ELOG. Basically, we have the topics broken up by categories but within the categories we would like to search
by a key word based on the subject to get to a specific topic. |

That question screams: please read the manual! Find command: https://elog.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html#browse

Missing log files when rsync to replacement server., posted by VUIIS SysAdmin on Thu Jul 30 17:11:05 2020
|
I am moving from a Hyper-V host to a VMware host and created a new elog server. I installed the elog software and did an rsync to get the .cfg file and
logbooks to the new server.
rsync -av root@old.elog.server:/usr/local/elog /usr/local/ |

Re: Missing log files when rsync to replacement server., posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Jul 31 15:42:55 2020

Start your new server interactively with "elogd -v 3" to see all verbose output. You will then see how it indexes all logbooks. If not, you
might have a wrong path in elogd.cfg

On the new server in the logbook that should have several 2020 entries it stops on the last entry of 2019.
On the old server after stopping elogd i get:

You can put your files where ever you want, just tell elogd where to find the elogd.cfg file via the "-c" flag. Then tell elogd where to find files
in the elogd.cfg file via the "Logbook dir" and "Resource dir" directives.

Thank-you. That is good information to have.
What is the default if you you do not specify anything in elogd.cfg? I assume it is /usr/local/elog otherwise it would not see the existing
logbooks. |
|
Re: Missing log files when rsync to replacement server., posted by Stefan Ritt on Sun Aug 2 09:06:46 2020

If nothing is specified elogd looks for logbooks in the current directory where it got started under ./logbooks/
No idea what happened to your 2020 logbook.

Expanding column width when viewing in Summary mode, posted by Illam Pakkirisamy on Thu Jul 16 23:29:15 2020
|
Hi,
I'm trying to expand the Subject column, when viewing in summary mode, and couldn't find any documentation for it. Is this possible
and if so, how would I do it. |
|
Re: Expanding column width when viewing in Summary mode, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Jul 17 09:18:18 2020

You can't directly change individual columns, but you can reduce the "Text" column. This is done in themes/default/elog.css. Search for
"listtitle2" and change or remove the line "width:100%". This makes the text column narrower, leaving more space for the subject column.

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your prompt follow up. I did try commenting of the width statement for listtitle2 and also reducing it to 40% but it did not
work. I restarted elogd daemon and I don't see the columns changing. I also tried putting a percentage number (40%) for listtitle1 just |

Anyone who knows me knows I (ab)use elog a lot. And this one is another of a long list of cheats and work arounds rather than modifying the
code properly.
In summary mode, the top row are titles, and if they are long, they will dominate the width of that column. Similarly if they are short, |

I can think of two reasons why you don't see a change:
1) You modified the wrong file. The elog.css file is under elog/themes/default/elog.css. If you "install" elog, it might go into your
installation directory. So check if you have more than one file with this name. |

Hi Stefan,
I have only one elog.css file in the default directory and the installation path is the same one that I'm using. Basically, I'm using
off of the installed path. I also tried, modifying the file and calling it elog_mod.css and then specified CSS=<path>/elog_mod.css and started |

How to change name of record Id from $@MID@$., posted by John on Wed Jul 22 18:11:56 2020

Hi Everyone,
I tried using this $@MID@$ in JS as a variable and cannot doit. I researched a little and found no answer on special character usage. If anyone

Re: How to change name of record Id from $@MID@$., posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Jul 22 19:10:08 2020

No idea what you are talking about. $@MID@$ is used in the database files to indicate the start of a new message. It is not used on any elog web page.
If you want to put the message ID on your web page, you should use the variable "$message id" as written in the documentation. You say JS, where
is your JS running? You wrote a JS program to work on the raw elog database files? Or you wrote an extension to run in your browse? You have to be a bit |
