Hi,

I have defined a quick filter based on an icon attribute and it does not work: no result. I have defined something like your "forum elog" (with Icon comment ): in the quick filter, i see the comments (that a good thing) but whatever i'm selecting, i have no entry.

Is it a bug or i miss something in the configuration ?

Regards

ELOG is a really helpful application

Thanks a lot !!

 Yes you're right, but i want to see the comment in the quickfilter list, not the name of the icon :

[MyLogBook]

List Display             = Auteur, Destinataire, Etat, Réponse, Rapport
Attributes               = Auteur, Destinataire, Etat, Réponse, Rapport

IOptions Etat            = icon3.gif, icon13.gif, icon14.gif, icon2.gif

Icon comment icon3.gif   = Suggestion
Icon comment icon13.gif  = Réfusée
Icon comment icon14.gif  = Retenue
Icon comment icon2.gif   = Réportée

Quick filter             = Auteur, Date, Etat, Destinataire

All the entries:

 When i'm selecting the quickfilter, it should display the entry "arthur":

Thanks a lot

Hi,

When the WINDOWS binaries with the latest bug fixes will be available on the download page ?

Have a nice day

Hi,

I want to know if it is possible to display an ID with this format: YYYY-XXXX where YYYY is the current year and XXXX a sequential number from 0001 to 9999 ?

ID Display = 2009$message id

could be fine but the year is hard coded and there are no 0 before the number.

Can you help me ?

Thanks a lot

it would be good if the current state was listed in https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Vulnerabilities/ 
It seems there's now updated builds for at least windows, and the debian package still outdated?

Personally, I don't think removing download links and pulling packages should be more than a temporary measure.
Treating people fairly IMHO means they should be able to reach a safe version by the same means that brought and left them exposed.

A clear central source would be best, one that has 

- package autobuilds
- source
- cve list

If I understand correctly, currently only the source is up to date?


(I found py_elog on Github, so it could be an easy option to mirror ELOG there and let some free service handle the autobuilds.
I don't know how well one can flag vulnerabilities there, but likely it's possible, and ideally more people would help there.)


p.s.: My hat is off to the sysadmin who checked carefully, I wanted to introduce ELOG in a windows-centric place and I can't swear I would have checked this (official) download as well.

Hi, I have an issue with my local elog setup. it's usable but one function is just not working.

Problem

I'm getting weird error messages when trying to write or read entries from the CLI client.

I have googled a lot and most elog client examples are not giving the actual output, more like elog -h <host> -p <myport> -a ... -x -m "myfile" but I hope I got the options right.

Upgrading did not change the behaviour.

Question?

• anyone see problems in the commands I tried below
• with OSX in general
• have a recent setup on OSX that just works

Env

I'm running elog on my OSX laptop for tracking issues / improvements on client's IT systems. It's proven really good for storing my notes.

One "kink" is I kinda need both of them on the laptop since I cannot assume to have working network connectivity, i.e. when documenting network outages or datacenter maintenance where everything is off.

One thing I couldn't get to work was the CLI. Today I upgraded to the latest build, and tried again.

Env: OSX 12.4 (x86_64)

elog Client compiled from latest source tree (bcd7b50edd3d687425e6c5b0906dc02c8690a24e)

with minimal adjustments (turn off SSL since I can't get it right on OSX, rename two .c files in mxml to .cxx)

Outputs

$ echo "blah" | ./elog -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 -l intern -r 2 -x
Cannot retrieve host name: Undefined error: 0
$ echo "blah" | ./elog -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 -l intern -r 2 -x

As per the messages, I'm not entirely sure if it's an issue with the client or the server. upgrading both components made no difference.

Hey,

i'm trying to use curl to post new entries to our logbook as described here: https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68597.
The Elog is installed via the Deban package on Buster.
I created a test logbook with attributes Author, Type, Category and Subject.

curl -u florian:foobaa -F cmd=Submit -F Author=Florian -F Type=Diary -F Category=General -F Subject="testing curl" -F Text="foo baa" http://localhost:8080/test

<center><a class="bottomlink" title="Goto ELOG home page" href="https://midas.psi.ch/elog/">ELOG V3.1.3-7933898</a></center></form></body></html>
 

As you can see, curl only prints the login page of the logbook and no new entry has been created. Any suggestions what might go worng here?

Regards,
Florian
