Re: log entries after a certain date not displayed - 3.1.1, posted by Mike Giles on Tue Nov 24 21:29:16 2015

Hi, I have noticed that if an entry is not submitted it is saved in a sub-folder (name is current ID number) eg http://localhost:8090/mike/23, while draft it doesn't appear in list page but you can browse directly to it.
When you update an entry on one server instance, if you then browse to the entry ID on the 2nd server instance it is draft. If you edit then submit the entry then appears in list page on 2nd server instance.
Thanks again.

Ah, I see another problem. The pre 3.1 version had all logbook files in one directory, and the 3.1 puts the files in one subdirectoy per year. On transition from 3.0 to 3.1, an automatic conversion is made, but only once. If you later add files into the root logbook directory, they will not be seen. So you have to move them manually into the right subdirectory.

Thanks very much for your comments. I will take a look at the mirror server functionality.
I have only been running one elogd at a time, restarting elogd (on Windows 10) doesn't seem to pick up the changes made on Windows 8.1 PC (stopped elogd after changes made and log file updated)

Besides the commen Andrea made I would like to add that you can convince elog to show all files if you simply restart it, then it will re-scan all files. But as Andreas said, if two elogd instances write to the same directory, you will get a mess with double IDs of entries.

Hi,
I'm having an issue with Elog 3.1.1 on windows 10 not displaying all log entries (after a certain date) in a logbook directory.
The logbook is saved in a Dropbox folder and the entries were created on a windows 8.1 PC with 3.1.1 also.
I created an entry in windows 10, this created a new log file (new day) with a duplicate ID, deleted the log file and then the windows 10 pc displayed all entries.
Is there any way to ensure Elogd picks up all log files ?
Thanks & Regards,
Mike

Drafts are not shown in the list page, but you can browse directly to them, if you know their idea. They are also shown if you hit "new". Then a box comes up "You have unfished drafts, do you want to edit them?". This is the new draft feature introduced recently and a feature of elog.
But I guess you have a more general problem. You run two elogd severs, and you transfer information between the two servers via Dropbox. Elog is not made for that. Elog is a web server, so you don't have to transfer data via a could service (except maybe for backup). You can access your one and only elog instance from everywhere. Everything else will give you trouble.

Last day -- list menu command, posted by Mike Forster on Tue Jan 27 15:13:08 2009

Hi folks,
I want to have Last day be a command in the List display, so I added:
List menu commands = New, Find, Import, Login, Logout, Config, Last day, Help
However, when Last day is selected, the command does not change to Last 2 days.
What is the right way to do this?
Thanks,
Mike

You have to put "Last x" in the menu, not "Last day". Unfortunately by default the label "Last day" does not show up. I fixed this in the current version. But you can yourself start this thing by adding "past1" to the URL, or by making yourself a bookmark in your browser. Like
https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/past1
then the "Last 2 days" will show up.

Thanks very much, Stefan.
I did not know "Last x" was the appropriate menu option.

Hello Stefan and Elog fans,
Is there a way to find entries with the words program and error when then are not contiguous in the text?
Thanks,

Please have a look at

does this help?

Hello Stefan,
I am looking for the same answer that Yoichi was looking for. For instance, could the text keyword filtering be looped so that the first group of results is then filtered by the next keyword?

I have tried to set Email Format = 111 but still receiving attachments in the notification emails. Does anyone know how to configure? So the notification email will not include attachments.

I just tried and it works fine for me as expected. So you must so something wrong like:
- change the wrong elgod.cfg,
- have a typo in your configuration
- have a too old version of elogd
Why don't you upgrade to the current version and try again? I forgot when I introduced this feature, but it might be after version 2.6 which you are using.

In a test area we loaded elogd 2.9.0 built Mar 21 2011, 08:48:02 revision 2396
During our testing we started the creation of a new elog, then backed out cancelling the creation and received the following error.
Error: Too many parameters (> 120). Cannot perform operation.
We do not see this error in the older version. |
