  2146   Thu Mar 1 15:27:31 2007 Question An Thaithaithan@gmx.deQuestionWindows2.6.4.1801Re: Conditional Email Notification by a text file
Dear All,

I have got very good feedback from my colleagues about Elog logbook which I have made at my work since October 2006. The tool is going to use improving.

At moment, I don't let Elog start as a service (deamon), but as an application (start from a *.bat file). Because I just want to enable of "elogd -x" for reading of email list in an external file. But this cause that Elog cannot be set to automatically restart after a crash. (As a service in Windows, you can set it restart immediatly after crash)

I don't find anywhere in the administrator's guide how I can set the option 'elogd -x' while installing Elog to get a service with '-x' option.

Do you know it?


Dear Stefan,
could you enable it for the install download file for Windows?

Starting from SVN revision 1801, simple tables are supported in ELCode tags. One can now embed tables in elog entries like this:
[table border=3 cellpadding=10]
One | Two
|-
Three | Four
[/table]

which produces following table:

One Two
Three Four


The syntax is explained in the ELCode help page.

Why do you have the absolute path in the Makefile? uname should be in the default path on any system. (The same applies to "rm")

I also was confused that you only provide one rpm Package (except for debian) without mentioning for which distribution. You try to avoid dependencies, but the elogd is linked against the basic libraries libc and ld-linux, which might vary.


Ups. The hard-coded /usr/uname somehow sneaked in from some temporary test. I removed it in the current SVN.

Indeed the RPM package I provide is built under Scientific Linux. The Debian port is done by someone else. Unfortunately I don't have ten boxes with all possible distributions laying around, so my possibilities are quite limited and I depend on third party help. If you want to contribute additional RPMs you are welcome.

For simple configuration files, that should work. If I have for example:
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine{r}, Software Installation{s}, Problem Fixed{p}, Configuration, Other

{r} Required Attributes = Author

Then the attributes "Author" is only required if "Type" equals "Routine".



you are right, I try to re-examine my configuration and I will say to you

The problem was that '%' is used in auto-generated preset tags like XYZ-%Y-%b-### (see documentation). I made the auto-generation a bit more clever such that it only tries to interprete any '%' if there is any '#'. The fix is in elog version 2.6.4.

How do I preset a drop-down box entry which contains a % character?

I use following lines in the elogd.cfg:

Options list->ta = K - 0%, S - 10% (text a1), F - 20% (text a2)
Preset list->ta = K - 0%

The documentation says:
If a preset value is given for an attribute which has an options list, the preset value is selected in the drop down box by default.

But this doesn't work for me. I also tried

Preset list->ta = "K - 0%"
Preset list->ta = K - 0%%
Preset list->ta = K - 0\%

without success. What's the right way to do this?


Best regards
Tobias
