Menu command = doesn't list, posted by PJ Meyer on Wed Jan 12 23:53:27 2005
|
Have tried to use "Menu commands =" to list menu commands available as per:
"Menu commands = List, Back, New, Edit, Delete, Find, Config, HELP, Logout"
but it does not seem to work; with command above I get default menu
structure.
Using:
"Find Menu commands = List, Back, New, Edit, Find, Delete, Config, Logout,
HELP"
I get the menu I want.
Q what's the difference????? |

Date in CSV and XML in UNIX time, posted by PJ Meyer on Fri Jul 22 03:15:29 2005

Q: How can dates be exported correctly in CSV and XML?
In windows version I'm getting the Unix seconds since 1970.
XML export:
<DATE>Wed Jun 22 08:29:58 2005</DATE>
<Date_Needed>1119384000</Date_Needed>
<Date_Added>1119470400</Date_Added>
the date record added is good and readable, the two user defined dates are Unix and not real useful in Excel.
Same behavior is the CSV file, the date record added is good, the two user defined dates are Unix seconds.
Now when E-log emails the records all the dates are good - ie readable dates.
So what can be done to make all the dates look like dates? |

Simply upgrade to 2.6.0beta where this problem has been solved. |
I did upgrade to "2.60-beta2" of the Windows binaries - June 16th date stamps on Elog.exe and Elogd.exe.
I'm still getting dates that are in "Unix time"
Anything else? |

I just tried again myself. Put following into elgod.cfg:
[demo]
Attributes = Author, Category, Arrival
Type Arrival = Date
type in one entry, did a XML extract, and got
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- ELOGD Version 2.6.0-beta2 export.xml -->
<ELOG_LIST>
<ENTRY>
<MID>1</MID>
<DATE>Fri Jul 22 22:50:34 2005</DATE>
<Author>sr</Author>
<Category>Problem</Category>
<Arrival>7/25/2005</Arrival>
<TEXT></TEXT>
</ENTRY>
</ELOG_LIST>
where the date looks ok. So what do you do differently? |
Not sure where we differ....
My cfg:
Attributes = System, Requestor, Title, Priority, Date Needed, Type, Also Notify, Subsystem, Status, Work Order, Assigned To, Team Lead, Percent Complete, Estimated Hrs, Actual Hrs, Date Added, Expected Delivery, Date Completed, Notifications, Completed
Options Priority = A-Emergency{p1}, B-Critical{p2}, C-High{p3}, D-Medium{p4}, E-Low{p5}
Preset Priority = D-Medium
Type Date Needed = Date
XML Extract:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- ELOGD Version 2.6.0-beta2 export.xml -->
<ELOG_LIST>
<ENTRY>
<MID>585</MID>
<DATE>Wed Jun 22 08:29:58 2005</DATE>
<System>SDWIS</System>
<Requestor>Other...</Requestor>
<Title>EDI rejects report to George WAUN</Title>
<Priority>B-Critical</Priority>
<Date_Needed>1119384000</Date_Needed>
Q: could it be the spaces in Attribute name????
Or the differences between Linux and Windows ports? |
Problems with beta 3 (Follow-on to CVS/XML msg 1296), posted by PJ Meyer on Wed Jul 27 02:15:59 2005
|
Ok downloaded and installed beta 3
can get xml and cvs with dates as date! verrry haaapppppy! 
but something happened to the css.
i'm getting white background and no icons anywhere.
so tried to install in a clean location as it comes out of the box with no changes. get white background, no colour.
tried moving css files, graphic files, etc, around - nothing.
emptied bowser caches (IE and Opera)
deleted appropriate cookies
stop and started many time.
and still at the end of the day - i get a white background only, no colour what so ever.
also get page not found when clicking on a row to edit entry.
example: http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/1
is record #1 in demo table, elog can't display it when i click on it in the list window.
any ideas? |

That's strange. Can you check if elog finds it's own host properly? The CSS file should be under
http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/default.css
and if you look at the HTML source of you standard page you should see something like:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/demo/default.css">
Could it be that elog places something else than "dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us" as the host name? If so, you could override this with following statement in elogd.cfg:
URL = http://dhsdlj159941.hr.state.or.us/
That should also fix your other problem. |
OK tried all that and nothing. html source reads like it should.
I can see the discussion/forum here site as it should be
I updated a working setup from 2.54 to 2.60.beta3 and I get the white background with no colours on the restart of Elogd. Going back to 2.54 brought back the colours.
this is the source <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://ISE-DEVEL1-OLD/default.css">.
Works in 2.54, does not seem to work in 2.60beta3
I've tried coping the default.css file to everyplace i could think of and then a few more places. 
This has happened on NT 4 server, 2000 server, and XP client machines. Brand new installs (server never saw elog before), upgrades in place, etc, etc, etc. Wish we could run linux in the shop.
Tried in the cfg file:
Resource dir = c:\e-log
Logbook dir = c:\e-log\logbooks
Theme = default
CSS = default.css
This is so strange.
Any ideas on where to go in trouble shooting this? |

Response is very slow with beta3, posted by PJ Meyer on Thu Jul 28 04:27:30 2005
|
I finally got 2.60 Beta3 running on my server (explicit statements in cfg for most of the defaults)
Now I'm seeing a veerrry slooooow response time - over 3 minutes to open a logbook vs 10 sec in 2.54
Utilization of CPU runs to 60% on elogd.
Tried slimning down elog.cfg, 'emptying' userlog file (actually renamed so Elog created a new one).
Still 2.60b3 is very slow to respond.
When I rolled back to 2.54 speed was fast again.
Any ideas?
this is on a dual processor Win2000 server with 2 gb memory.
attached is the elog.cfg if that helps.
i'm stumped
7/28 Follow-up testing and trials
When I stopped using a password file - speed was quick and responsive (on test book with no password file speed was good which got me thinking about the password file)
When I added back in the 'old' xml password file - slow response
I created new password file with only one user - slow response (took almost 3 minutes to save new account)
I've attached the password file so you can try it out if yo want....
This has me very stumped. |
