Hi Stefan,
I'm experiencing problems importing XML (.csv is not working at all for me).
My logbook contains 3 date-attributes besides the system DATE (entry time), date-format is defined as %d %b %y.
The XML file hold the date format "DD.MM.YYYY"
- During "preview" I see that all entries are listed.
- During the import I get the "wrong date format" error.
- When I review the Summary, I see that only the first XML entry (all 3 date-attributes hold a date) was imported.
- When I try to re-import the XML from the second entry (after removing the 1st entry from XML - this second entry hold NO date-value on one of the date-attributes) the elogd.exe crashes and I get the "Service Temporarily Unavailable" error page.
- When I try to re-import the XML from the modified second entry (after removing the 1st entry from XML - this second entry holds date-value on all of the date-attributes) the elogd.exe crashes and I get the "Service Temporarily Unavailable" error page.

Any suggestion what could be wrong? Is it the missing date-value?

 Can you post your elog configuration file (elog.cfg)?

Have you tried on this forum?

 The navigation buttons work for me but Ctrl-PgUp and Ctrl-PgDn does not in IE8 or Chrome.

However buttons and Ctrl-PgUp and Ctrl-PgDn both work in FireFox, so seems to be browser specific, I noted that in Chrome Ctrl-PgUp and Ctrl-PgDn moves through your open Tabs.

I confirm that IE8 and Chrome "eat" the Ctrl-PgUp/Dn keys, so they are not passed to ELOG, and there is nothing I can do about.

 On this linux box, using Firefox 12, if tabs are in use, Ctrl-Pgup/Ctrl-Pgdn goes throught the tabs.  If you force tabs off, then it goes through the entries.

Bavigation buttons work fine.

  I have tried this forum, it worked fine. So, it should not be a browser. The only different I have logbook that I have been working on ELOG v2.6.5 and I have installed a new version v2.9.2. I just wonder any different data format (2.6.5 vs. 2.9.2) could have caused a problem.

The data format has nothing to do with the functionality of browsing buttons. Except if you have an empty logbook, or a logbook with just one entry, then of course going forwared and backward will not make any sense.

Just modify your configuration file elogd.cfg manually with an editor and add your logbooks there, then restart elogd.

/Stefan 

 I cannot answer for Windoze, BUT there is more to this if you use Linux.

(Sorry for re-entry, I spotted a cut-and-paste error from first time around)

If you want to make a new logbook in linux manually, you need to do the following:

0.  Stop the elogd daemon.

1.  Edit elogd.cfg as Stefan said.  This will be in two parts - at the top, and then a block of entries which is what you normally see when you go to the "config" section of any logbook.  Easiest to copy and paste an existing block, only remember to put in a new header in the square brackets at the top - the name of your new logbook.  While most of the elogd.cfg is the same as in the documentation, the additional headers etc are pretty self-explanatory, and you only see these because you're editing the file raw rather than through the elog interface.  Once restarted, you can then edit the config for the new logbook in the usual way.

2.  Create a new subdirectory in your logbooks directory *with the same name* as the name you added in when editing elogd.cfg.

3.  Give that subdirectory the correct ownership and permissions.

4.  Only then, start elogd again.

As a windows user, which of the above you need to do: create the subdirectory (I imagine so) and/or anything else (I don't know).  I don't use Windows - apart from AutoCAD and one other javascript based program that non-the-less has windows dependancies (!).

David.

 David, Stefan,

Thanks for your help. Directly editing the elog.cfd file worked.
