Thanks for pointing out this issue. This bug was introduced recently, when I tried to avoid the
Re: Re: Re: ...
in the subject line. I changed this now completely so that we can have
Preset on reply Author = $full_name
Preset on first reply Subject = Re: $Subject
which fixes both things. The modification is in revision 2271. |

Is there a way to configure ELOG to default to the Status column in descending order rather than the Date in descending order?
Thanks

Sort attributes = Status
... as written in the manual. |

Thanks for the quick response. This works. I noticed that the Dates aren't descending, is there a way to have the dates descending while sorting Status?
Thanks again!

For this you need
Sort attributes = Status, Date
which however only works from version 2.7.8 on. |

We are trying to track down an issue where elogd just stops, and I cannot seem to find a cause.
In the logs, I see:
Dec 3 14:01:23 nissrv18a kernel: [419738.139675] elogd[32003]: segfault at 4 ip 00007f183b19b560 sp 00007fff79f5e278 error 4
in libc-2.10.1.so[7f183b119000+166000]
Any thoughts?

I need more information about that. Please have a look at Faq #19. |

I want to extend the usage of ELOG and have 2 Questions:
1. Is it possible to have Fields which only appears if another selection is done? e.g. I create a new entry. This new entry has a type field. If I chose the Type "ABC" another field appears where the departemnt could be choosen. If I select Type "DEF" the Department field does not appear.
2. I have a field Status. This is a predefined field with 3 entries (New, under progress, closed). If i change the status field time, date old and new status should be logged or written in the text field. I can log this with the answer field with a new ID. But is there any other way to log it in the text field or log it with no new ID?
Can i implement the wishes above? If yes how does it work?
Thanks for your help

1. is simple, just use conditional attributes like:
Attributes = Author, Type, Status, Revisions, Department
Options Type = ABD{1}, DEF{2}
Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions
{1}Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions, Department
{2}Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions
2. is more complicated. Have a look at FAQ # 11. Try something like:
Options Status = New, Under progress, Closed
Subst Revisions = $date status $status
Subst on Edit Revisions = $Revisions<br>$date status $status
But when testing this, I realized that there is a bug in elog and the subsitution is done before the submission, not after. I fixed that in SVN revision 2263, so it will be contained in the next Windows release.

Hello,
i tried
Options Status = New, Under progress, Closed
Subst Revisions = $date status $status
Subst on Edit Revisions = $Revisions<br>$date status $status
but it won't work. When I change the status i saw an information in the status bar of Internet Explorer like "Entry has changed" (Eintrag wurde verändert) but it is not written in the notes field. Or is it written to another field?
Do I have to update first to the latest Windows Version? You wrote something about SVN revision 2263. When do you expect the windows version where this problem is fixed is available to download?

Hello,
it now works with the revisions. When do you expect that the new Windos version, which corrects the error you described, is available for download?

You can download version 2.7.8 already since a while from https://midas.psi.ch/elog/download/windows/ |

How did you install the certificate? Maybe it ended up in the IIS directory and not in the elog directory? |

No, you never submitted any file. It was missing in all your posts. In worst case send it by email to me. |

Grrr. Forgetting to pick an icon means my message was blasted.
I have installed elog 2.7.8 and it is running. When I connect to it and get a login window, I am always denied. If I remove the passwords, then I can login with no password information. I have tried both command line for setting passwords and directly in the elogd.cfg file.
Suggestions on what I might be doing wrong would be appreciated.

PS - are there RESTful interfaces to automate the generation of log entries via an HTTP POST or HTTP GET?

Which password scheme are you using? Is it Read passoword = ... or Password file = ...? If you use a password file (that's what most people do) you have to create yourself an account just as you did for this forum here. There is no other way to enter the encrypted password into the password file. Just follow "To start a new password file..." in the documentation. |
