icon5.gif   Push button for Menue Command, posted by An Thai on Fri Nov 3 15:53:44 2006 
Dear Stefan,

in your documentation: ELOG - Syntax of elog.cfg I see two screenshots in the Themes section. The left one shows a layout with Push buttons on the Menue Command. I would like this layout and try to find information on W3C consortium how i can redesign the CSS file to realise the push button for hyperlink, but I cannot get an success there. Can you give more information how you made it?

Thank you in advance
icon5.gif   Option to require new user registration to subscribe to ALL logbooks, posted by Steve Jones on Mon Nov 6 19:03:11 2006 
Stefan, any chance of having an option that eliminates the ability of new users to pick the logbooks they can register with? I would like to limit this to the "admin" user to pick per individual.

Also, any thoughts to adding a management panel that will the admin user to make global changes to the password file? I do this by bringing it into a text editor and making changes, but it would be nice to do it from the application.

Is there a way to print a summary of all (or selected) log books on a scheduled basis, say like every morning @ 7:00 am? I would like a printed copy of our daily logs (24 hr period). Thanks Eric
icon5.gif   $long_name in Moptions, posted by Fergus Lynch on Mon Nov 20 16:23:37 2006 
Hi,

Is there a way of having $long_name in 'Moptions'?

We use ELOG (amongst other things!) to allocate work out to Developers (who are all configured as ELOG users) I would like to use 'checkbox' functionality to allocate out a task to more than one developer. Currently only a single developer is chosen from a drop down list.

Thanks
Fergus
icon5.gif   How to do a preset on MOptions attributes ?, posted by Stephane LE on Fri Nov 24 11:01:22 2006 
Hi,

I'm new to elog and I was wondering if it is possible to do some presets on MOptions attributes when displaying a new form ? I've read the elogd config page but couldn't find how to do it.

Thanks for your help,

stephane
icon5.gif   Resubmit-as-new-entry behaviour when synchronizing/mirroring, posted by Andreas Warburton on Fri Nov 24 23:08:33 2006 
Hello,

I am running two ELOG installations: one on my Windows laptop; the other on a Debian linux web server. I have mirroring set up between the two installations. This has worked well for over a year. I am hoping that someone can help me regarding the following odd behaviour.

1. I edit (create) an entry on my Windows laptop. This entry gets mirrored or synchronized to the Linux machine.

2. I can view the entry fine both on the Windows side and on the Linux side.

3. I then edit the entry on the Linux side. After saving, the revised entry is visible on the Linux side.

4. I then have the same entry number available on both installations, but the two have different content due to my edit.

5. If I then synchronize, the original (unedited) entry is preserved along with the new entry, so both the Windows and Linux installations now have TWO entries each, representing the unedited and edited versions. The time stamps are identical, but the edited version is given a new ID number.

As a check, I explicitly added the line "Resubmit default = 0", which I know refers to editing and not synchronization, to my config file. The weird thing is that the synchronize/mirror operation seems to be acting with a "Resubmit default = 2" kind of behaviour.

Has anyone observed this happening?

Thanks for any comments or insights.

Cheers,
Andreas
icon5.gif   elog (2.6.1+r1642 ubuntu/debian) regularly becomes non-responsive (w/o crashing), posted by Peter Kovac on Mon Nov 27 17:29:41 2006 
Greetings~

First, the problem. Fairly regularly (at least once a week, perhaps more), our elog daemon seems to quietly die. The process is still running but anyone attempting to access the server gets "connection refused." The elog log doesn't show anything and the apache logs just show "proxy: Error reading from remote server returned by [path]". Calling a daemon restart doesn't seem to kill the daemon -- I get a "could not bind to port" error. Using kill and then starting the daemon again fixes the problem for a few days and then we start over.

The particulars:
We are running elog on an Ubuntu (6.06 Dapper Drake LTS) web server.
It's currently version 2.6.1+r1642 pulled via apt-get from the Debian repositories.
elog is hiding behind an apache2+SSL proxy.

Any thoughts? Has anyone else seen this behavior? My next step is probably to compile 2.6.2 and remove the packaged flavor but I wanted to see if this was a known bug...

Thanks,
-Peter
icon5.gif   Preset reply date to nothing, posted by herman on Mon Dec 11 18:02:12 2006 
How do I preset the reply date to an empty box(es)?

In 2.5.x it worked as

Preset on reply Plan Date = ""

gave me an empty date, which is what I wanted. Now in 2.6.3 I get some date in there (...1969) and have to
manually set it to empty again ?

Thanks
