icon5.gif   Email format flags, posted by Elaine Cristina Franchini dos Anjos on Tue Nov 22 20:22:04 2005 
I've been tried to format our email notification messages
like this forum, but I couldn't.

Every email notification is sent in plain text although I've tried
all options listed in documentation about Email Format flags. Crying

What is the Email Format flag that I need to use ?
Is there something else that I have to configure ? ?)

Regards,

Elaine

Do you have 2.6.0-bata5 for linux as setup for RPM install. I was able to locate the version for windows but not for linux.
Thanks for your help.
icon5.gif   duplicate & presets, posted by Willem Koster on Mon Dec 12 15:17:39 2005 
I'm (mis)using elog as a database. I like the fact that I can have presets for fields, but I also like the fact 
that I can make a duplicate of an entry. Now when I make a duplicate, all the fields get overwritten with the 
preset-value. Is there a way to get the preset-values only on entering a NEW reord and NOT on a duplicate ?

I could take away the presets, most of them are "***" (literally) to be able to search for entries that do not 
have a value, but I don't know how to search for empty fields.


PS: They wanted to do a CMDB in BMC-Magic (really expensive $$$-ware), but after about 1 afternoon (and about 6 
prototypes) they went with elog since it was fast, cheap and already implemented (and filled with 200 entries 
through a script using some old CSV list we had lying around) :-) 

 
icon5.gif   Logbook aliases, posted by Yoshio Imai on Tue Dec 13 10:51:13 2005 
Hi!

Is it possible to implement aliases for logbooks? We would like to use a new logbook for every beamtime, but many services need to read/write to the respective current beamtime logbook. It would therefore be nice to have logbook "aliases", so that e.g. a "virtual" logbook beam could be defined to be an alias/redirection to the current beamtime logbook, and all services could refer to that one instead of having to be reconfigured for each beamtime.
This could also help to make sure everyone on shift writes the entries to the correct logbook ... Wink

icon5.gif   Bad date format., posted by Alex H on Thu Dec 15 15:33:04 2005 elog.gifelog2.gif
Hi Stefan,

I have two loogbook who are using the Type Derniere image = Date parameter, but I obtain a big
number instead of a formated date.

On my logbook "liste" (Look on the first attachement elog.gif please to watch the problem.)
I obtain this problem.
Here is the part of the elogd.cfg file for logbook "Liste" :
[Liste]
Theme = Bubble
Comment = Liste des routeurs / firewall clients
Type Dernière image = Date
List display = Client, Nom machine, Type, Equipment, Emplacement, Nom_admin, Pwd_admin, Maint, Derniere image
Link display = Client, Nom machine, Type, Equipment, Emplacement, Maint, Derniere image
Attributes = Client, Nom machine, Equipment, Type, Emplacement, Nom_admin, Pwd_admin, Maint, Derniere image
Extendable options = Client, Equipment
Options Type = FWL1{1}, FWL2{2}, FWL4{3}, VPN1{4}, VPN2{5}, CLIVPN-PROC{6}
{1} Preset text = FWL1.txt
{2} Preset text = FWL2.txt
{3} Preset text = FWL4.txt
{4} Preset text = VPN1.txt
{5} Preset text = VPN2.txt
{6} Preset text =
Preset Author = $short_name
Options Maint = Oui, Non
Required Attributes = Client, Type, Equipment, Nom machine, Maint
Locked Attributes = Author
Page Title = ELOG - $Nom machine
Reverse sort = 0
Quick filter = Client, Type, Maint
Summary lines = 2
Entries per Page = 50
Case sensitive search = 1



On my logbook "Image Routeurs" (Look on the second attachement elog2.gif)
No Problem
Here is the part of the elogd.cfg file for logbook "Liste" :
[Image Routeurs]
Theme = Bubble
Comment = Image Routeurs
Type Derniere Image = Date
Attributes = Equipment ,Client, Derniere Image
List display = Equipment ,Client,Derniere Image
Preset Author = $short_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Page Title = ELOG - $Equipment
Sort Attributes = Equipment
Reverse sort = 0
Quick filter = Equipment, Client
Reverse sort = 1
Sort Attributes = Equipment
Summary lines = 1
Display mode = Summary



What is wrong with my configuration ?
Thanks for answer.
