Options are limited to 200. To add options dynamically, use
Extendable options = <name>
as desribed in the manual. |

No, that's not possible with elog.

email notification fail to retrieve images in the text , posted by MATT TERRON on Wed Apr 1 12:29:47 2020

When I use the email notification for an entry with images in the text, it seems the email server cannot retrieve the image. When I inspected the URL
of the image it went to the login page.
Is that because the logbook has a password config that the access from the URL of the image needs authentication? Or |

First thing you want to try is to upgrade elog to the last version. Older versions have problems in including images.
Then you want to check the "Email Format" in your elogd.cfg configuration file. Only if "16" is included there, then attachments
are sent as email attachments and images will be included in yoru email. If not, only a link of the image is included in your email, and you correctly |

There could be a bug which is triggered by the fact that $M is a substring of $min. Try to rename $M to $Month or so.

How to update date fields so 'alarms' work correctly., posted by John on Sat Feb 29 06:04:57 2020

Hi Stefan!
In the user manual under misc it says this: "The elog program makes it possible to submit logbook
entries automatically by the system or from scripts. In some shift logbooks this feature is used to enter alarm messages automatically into the logbook. |

Dear John,
I am a user of the elog system and no developer, so no complete answer guaranteed.
The quote of the manual describes the case, if e.g. an hardware component discovers a failure and the connected PC makes an automatic (new) entry |

Hi Sebastian!
Thank you soo much for your kind response. You are correct in all of your assumptions as to what I want to do (or not do!). Everything should
be on clients side, and I want the date to be updated in each record, daily, or hourly, in order to allow the 'alarm' system I created to be able |

ELOG reverts to demo configuration, posted by VUIIS SysAdmin on Thu Feb 20 16:54:32 2020

I have been using elog for over 10 years. Suddenly my elog installation has changed (probably from a recent update. My /etc/elogd.cfg has changed to
the original demo configuration. Even after changing it to my configuration from backup none of the entries for the logbooks apper even though the tabs
for the logboos are ther all logbooks are empty. I have looced at the logbook files and the entries seem to be there but are not showing on the web interface. |

If you've upgraded from an elog 2.x version to an 3.x version, then all entries of a logbook will be moved into subfolder, one for each year.
If you then switch back to the 2.x version of elog, it'll not find any entries.
You can move them back to the folder for the logbook (one directory up) and they'll be found again after the next restart of elog. |

Do you see the same problem on this server here?
If not, then it must be related to your specific configuration. You have to teach me how to reporduce the error in order to fix it. Best would
be a minimal elogd.cfg which causes the error. |

Hi Stefan,
The problem seems to be specific with our logbooks. Maybe one of the file is corrupted or bad string encoding ?! But how to find the source of
the problem ? |
|
Re: Elogd crashes on search, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Jan 31 15:46:09 2020

The only way for me is to reproduce it. Could be corrupted data file, or config file. Try with a new logbook with the same configuration, then add logbook
files one by one until it happens.

Hi Stefan.
I installed debuginfo and ran elogd with gdb attached.

Hi Stefan,
My previous dump is useless as your elog-debuginfo rpm is stripped.
So i rebuild elog w/ -g , reinstall it and activate core generation. I restst a search of "test" and get this in gdb corefile . |

At #5, there is message_id=426 . You think it's this elog entries # 426 that is the source of crash ?

Looks like. Can you dig into the database file and have a look at that entry? Or send me the file containing that entry (together with your elogd.cfg)

Stefan,
I cut the log in two parts w/o modifying the content and the search runs. It seems that the size of this entrie 426 is closed to a limit (as
during testing, i met a message after clicking save to recompile elog to increase a size of something), so it could be the problem. |

Thanks for the detailed investiations and report. Finally I could reproduce the problem by having messages with a text body size close to 250000 bytes
(some internal limit). Never thought that someone really has the patience to write 250'000 chars in a single message, but I guess you did some copy/paste
from a large file. Thought in such cases people use attachments. Nevertheless, I fixed an internal memory allocation problem, now it shoudl be fine to |

Find cannot find values with brackets, posted by Sebastian Schenk on Fri Jun 14 11:29:30 2019

For demonstration, I created https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/8
The Find search for category aaa(bb) does not give results.
A quick filter corrects the value to aaa\(bb) and delivers results. |
