How to execute  the batch file  in elogd
    icon2.gif   Re: enable batch file execution, posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Jan 28 18:17:15 2015 
Modify the server start command in the Windows Registry. Or start the elogd server directly in a command window with "elogd -x", after "cd"
to the elog installation directory.

Stop the old server first, but we told you this already on elog:67770. If you
don't follow our suggestions we cannot help you.

This is not possible with ELOG. May I suggest that you use a spreadsheet for that.

Is it as good as Microsoft excel  sheet.

but how can achieve my aim of calculation  how how to integrate it with elog 

Sorry for disturbing yau again and again

I meant to use it instead of ELOG. Spreadsheets allow calculaiton of dates, etc. So you can achieve what you need. Again: WHAT
YOU WANT IS NOT POSSIBLE WITH ELOG.

I have not tried these, but since CKeditor works so well, you may want to consider taking a look at integrating jQuery Calx or jExcel...just for fun.

Dear All,

 

is it possible to write to the elog instead of the Command line throug a .dll
    icon2.gif   Re: Write by a .dll instead of the elog.exe, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue May 21 17:20:19 2019 
I presume you want to write from another program. You can call a command line shell (done via the "system()" command under C) which then calls
the elog executable. If you absolutely want a DLL, you can einter try to compile one yourself using the fuctions in elog.c, or use the curl DLL with which
you can also submit elog entries. See elog:68597 for usage of curl. While curl is usually executed from the command line, there is

Hi everybody,

sorry if this question has already been posed (I did a quick search but I didn't found anything): elog sorts entry by ID, I wonder if it
is possible to pin an entry in order to be always on top of the page independently on its ID.
    icon2.gif   Re: Pinned entry, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Apr 23 10:00:48 2019 
This is not directly possible, but you can configure it with a trick. Create an attribute "pinned", make it of type "boolean", and
set the start page such that it sorts using the "pinned" attribute:

Atributes = ..., Pinned

Works great and very usefull - but not when you use reverse sort = 1?.

Is there a way to get both. Pinned first and then the rest i reversed order (highest ID on page 1)

Dear all, 

I have a question about my logbook. I have recently added a new attribute to my logbook and I would like to prefill all previous entries with
a fixed value for this field. Is it possible? 
    icon2.gif   Re: How to pre-fill an attribute that was added later, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue May 21 12:08:17 2019 
Find all entries which have this attribute empty. Then click on Select, then select all, then click on Edit, then change all values. There might be a
limit how many entries you can select in one go, so you might have to do it in bunches.

Hello,

we are extensively using ELOG for documenting changes in our infrastructure. It is very helpful for us.

To avoid multiple documentation efforts it would be even more helpful if the subject of an ELOG entry also could be the subject of the mail which

We are installing a new data center which will be based on Windows 2012 servers.  Our current center is on Windows 2008 and will be decommissioned
this year - 2008 servers (because of the security issue) will not be allowed in the new data center.  So game plan is to install latest ELOG (3.1.2)
on the 2012 server at the new data center and move the logs over from the 2008 server.  I've looked through entries and do not see anything about

Just stop the server. Move your elog directory to the new server (including elogd.cfg, logbook directories, ...). Then check that the elogd.cfg needs
modifications, like the URL which might have changed, then start the new server. V2.9.2 did have an old data format, which *should* be converted automatically.
But first try it out before deleting the old server.

Hi Lesley,

Perhaps I can restate Stefan's comment.  The data structure of an elog entry, or indeed the structure of daily file(s) for any particular
logbook has not changed between v2 and v3.  What has changed is the directory structure.  A set of sub-directories (named by calendar years)

Thank you Stefan - it will take a couple of months to set up (many servers being built at the new farm).  I will update you on the success of the
files converting automatically.
