icon8.gif   cannot start elog, posted by harley on Thu May 27 22:35:49 2010 

I have v2.7.7 of elog running on a OSX system running 10.6 I configured and installed about a year ago.  It's a wonderful thing to have.

I acquired another system running 10.6 to dedicate to the elog app.  I downloaded 2.7.8  and performed the following steps:

extract tarball in the desired directory

run

tar -xzvf elog-x.x.x.tar


switch to the new elog-x.x.x directory edit Makefile and elogd.cfg files as needed

to create executables

run

make


to create directories & files

run

make install

When I try to execute elog as a daemon:

 

elogd -c ~vulcanstaff/ELOG-Workspace/elog/elogd.cfg -D

I get the following message:

-bash: elogd: command not found

I'm not understanding why elogd cannot be found.  The same message occurs when I try to test the installation with elogd -p 8080 from the sbin directory where elogd is installed.
 
I'm using the same Makefile and elogd.cfg files that work on the old system.  My elogd and elogd.cfg files appear to be in the correct directories indicated in the Makefile:
 
#############################################################

#
# Directories for installation, modify if needed
#

ifndef PREFIX
PREFIX     = ~vulcanstaff/ELOG-Workspace
endif

ifndef MANDIR
MANDIR     = $(ROOT)$(PREFIX)/man
endif

ELOGDIR    = $(ROOT)$(PREFIX)/elog
DESTDIR    = $(ROOT)$(PREFIX)/bin
SDESTDIR   = $(ROOT)$(PREFIX)/sbin
RCDIR      = $(ROOT)$(PREFIX)/etc/rc.d/init.d

# flag for SSL support
USE_SSL    = 1

# flag for crypt() support
USE_CRYPT  =

#############################################################
 
Again, this works on the old system.  Perhaps I've looked at it for too long, but I can't figure out what's going on.  Assistance is greatly appreciated.

Each time a attempt to CREATE A LOGBOOK on any of my logbook groups, I get an ELOG ERROR page presenting saying FORBIDDEN ATTRIBUTE DATE.

I have, up until recently been able to add new logbooks.

Can anybody help me on this.

icon5.gif   can one use a IOption field for conditional tests?, posted by FX FRERE on Tue Feb 9 18:54:22 2010 

Hi again,

I was wondering if one could use a conditional statement on an IOption attribute? Indeed i try to do a visual logbook (a green check for OK result, a red cross for NOK result), unfortunately i cannot refer to the attributes value for conditional test, e.g:

IOptions Status= "Delete-icon.png" {1}, "Check-icon.png"{2}
Icon comment Delete-icon.png = Failed
Icon comment Check-icon.png = OK

{1} Show Attribute Edit = Attribute1, Attribute2

Thread Icon = Status

Attribute1 and 2 do not have any sense if the result was successful,

ELOG interprets the {1} and {2} as being part of the icon name!

thanks again for your help

icon5.gif   can attrinute fields contain more that one line, posted by Paul Harrington on Tue Apr 27 17:40:25 2004 
Is there any way to configure elog so that attribute fields can be edited 
on more than line like the 'text' field? 

(This would be useful so that attributes could contain larger portions of 
text including line breaks)

thanks

Paul
icon5.gif   calling a shell in the Options tag, posted by Alexandre Lindote on Tue Oct 31 20:05:07 2006 
Hi,

is it possible to run a shell script in an "Options" tag, as it is with the "Preset", "Subst", and so on?
I need to have something like this:

Options Update of = $shell(/home/alex/zeplin3/elog/z3elog-mirror/documents/ext_docs.sh MinGen)

the script returns a line with comma separated values...

Thanks

Alex
icon3.gif   call a shell from ELOG / new button [Submit & Notify], posted by Etienne Van Caillie on Sat Jan 11 19:44:29 2003 
propose to put 
[Submit] [Back] [Submit & Notify] button on top/bottom

new parameter 'shell option' 

[test]
...
Attributes = NotifyMode, Param1....Param10, Adresse, Subject, ...
Options NotifyMode = mail, SMS, Fax, printer...

; this command will invoque a shell command  
; example       
ShellCommand = <my shell command> parameters ...

like in WINDOWS 2000
ShellCommand = START.EXE notify.bat $NotifyMode $Param1, $Param2, $Param3
; in this case no necessity to modify the C source
; in windows I suggest the start.exe with a exit command
; so no necessary to wait the return code from the shell
