Hi

We have setup a elog server and would like to import a bunch of emails as
elog entries. Is there some way we can do this ? Since there are hundreds of
emails, it is not possible to post them individually as new elog entries.

Many thanks,
Anand.

When creating/updating entries in elog, excluding the main text field are 
there any limits on the size of the other fields?

many thanks

Paul

I've got it running for two years now on a Sun Netra box running Solaris 9

I just used the compile instructions as shown in the elog admin manual

Here the Makefile I used

#
# Simple makefile for elogd
#
# S. Ritt, May 12th 2000
# install/clean section by Th. Bullinger, Apr. 26th, 2002
#
# add "-DHAVE_CRYPT" and "-lcrypt" to use crypt() function
#

CC = gcc
LIBS =
CFLAGS = -L/usr/lib/ -ldl -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lsocket
#CFLAGS = -g -O
EXECS = elog elogd elconv
DESTDIR = /usr/local/bin
SDESTDIR = /usr/local/sbin
MANDIR = /usr/local/man

INSTALL = /usr/bin/install
RM = /bin/rm

ifeq ($(OSTYPE),solaris)
CC = gcc
#LIBS = -lsocket -lnsl
#CFLAGS =
INSTALL = /usr/ucb/install
RM = /usr/bin/rm
endif

ifeq ($(OSTYPE),darwin)
CC = cc
endif

all: $(EXECS)

%: src/%.c
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $< $(LIBS)

install: $(EXECS)
        $(INSTALL) -m 0755 -o bin -g bin elog elconv $(DESTDIR)
        $(INSTALL) -m 0755 -o bin -g bin elogd $(SDESTDIR)
        $(INSTALL) -m 0644 man/elog.1 man/elconv.1 $(MANDIR)/man1/
        $(INSTALL) -m 0644 man/elogd.8 $(MANDIR)/man8/

clean:
        -$(RM) *~ $(EXECS)

Not at all.
Just read the manual and it just works.
If you are having problems just read this "forum" the get the answers.

Hello,

I try to have two Extendable options : Client and Equipment
so here is the line in my elogd.cfg
Extendable options = Client, Equipment

When I create a new entrie, I have the 2 scroll menus(Client and 
Equipment) and the 2 buttons(Client and Equipment) but i can't create 2 
news entries, i must create one for client, after I submit, I edit one 
more time and add a new equipement. Is there a solution for this?

Thanks a lot and sorry for mistakes or problem of comprehension i'am 
french :)

Hi,

Is there any solution to obtain an non-clickable column ?
For example here : http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Config+Examples/ what should 
I do to obtain the data of the Category column non clickable?
I don't have find a solution in the Syntax of elogd.cfg  
(http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html)

Thanks a lot

If I want to go to the latest CVS release, what files do I have to compile
along with the elogd.c file?  Also, do I need to use any special gcc flags
for the compilation?  Thanks.

I am currently trying to get some attributes into one line in my logbook, with some others on a line of their own (this is on the single message page) - pretty much like in this forum.
I searched through the forum and the config examples and found elog:571 as well as elog:Config+Examples/4, but I cannot get it to work.

In the forum, the "Subject:" line is on its own line and fills the whole line, which is what I want. In my logbook, the equivalent attribute does stand on its own line, but the 'value' only fills the space of the second column (i.e., if it was in this forum, the 'value' of "Subject" would be the same width as the icon above it and the rest of the line just blank).
As far as I can see, I'm using the "Format <attribute>=1" statements in the same way as in the example - and when I compare the resulting HTML, it also looks the same. I did notice, however, that you use different CSS classes for "Subject" and its value. Hence my question: To get "Subject" and its value to stretch over the full line, is there some fancy CSS footwork involved? I was not able to find the CSS file for this forum among the configuration examples - maybe you could add it?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Is there a command line in the configuration files to show all of sub logs 
on the main page of elog instead of clicking on "Expand All" on the top of 
ELOG ?

Thanks
