| Arno Teunisse | arno.teunisse@hetnet.nl | Question | Windows | | Re: Attribute and checkbox | In the screen shots I see checkboxes before the attributes. How can I do that ??
In the doc I saw Options = boolean. But that creates a checkbox in the fill in form after the attribute. See second attached picture. The first attached picture shows what I want but I can only get the result in the second picture. Can anybody help me in this one. ( Is there an option checked for the attributes ?
Just answer it myself : I thought of the checkboxes in front of the attributes as boolean. However, it has to to with the browse feature filtered browsing =1= In this way you can, when checking one of the checkboxes, browse to the same item clicking the next and previous button. Sorry , my question was about RTFM ( Read The Fucking Manual ) So this question is solved.
However , it would be nice to have a checkbox in front of one attribute. Suppose you have a lot a entries in a record ,that are readonly( predefined). The user of the form must only confirm that a job is done by checking the checkbox without going to the edit mode. So, the checkbox is writable in readonly mode. I can inmagine something like : attribute record check = attribute in the configuration file. In this way the user of the form says : job done.
There can be only one checkbox for the record.
[ job done] [ customer ] [ activity ] [ What should be done ]
[X] BLA Check job1 Backup mail check
[] BLA1 Check job2 check error report
[X] Bla2 Check job3 check MQ jobs
Is this possible ?? It's just an idea

Is anyone synchronizing or mirroring two ELOG servers with SSL? When either or both servers are set to use SSL, I can use either site. but I can't synchronize.

Synchronization with SSL does not yet work. I have to find some time to implement it. Since you are already the second one mentioning this, it slipped higher on my to-do list

Hi Stefan, we would also like to see synchronization with SSL working. Hopefully now this task can slip even higher on your to-do list. It is a real pain to get to the elog from outside PSI, when elogd is running inside PSI (which it must be when working as an online logbook with MIDAS). We would very much ike to mirror it on a server outside PSI. |

| Antonio Iuliano | antonio.iuliano@cern.ch | Question | Linux | 3.1.2 | xmalloc error when filling entries and chaning page | Dear ELOG experts,
the ELOG server on our lab crashes continuosly, when we add a new entry or even if we click the arrows to navigate between entries. Following the FAQ on the website, I have used gdb and found the following error:
xmalloc: not enough memory
[Inferior 1 (process 23271) exited with code 01]
It should be then some allocation issue when we try to access to the entries, but I could not figure the nature of the issue. I was, however, able to reproduce it with a fresh ELOG installation and the same configuration file (ELOG cloned from git and installed today)
Could you please give me any suggestion? I attach here the configuration file we use.
Best regards,
Antonio Iuliano |

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 2.9.2 | Different logbook files when running elogd as admin or normal user | Dear all, I have a problem with my window elog installation (2.9.2) and I would like to ask your help for solving it.
I'm using elog on my lab computer for a single user installation, so something very simple. It was running smoothly for many months using the automatic window service (i.e. elogd was started automatically at boot). I need to add that the service is started as the local administrator, while my user has no administrative rights. ELOG is installed in the standard location C:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\ with the logbook folder inside and this is actually accessible only for admins.
On 8/04/2016, elogd crashed while I was saving an edited message. Then instead of restarting the service or rebooting the PC, I was just starting elogd manually (as me not as admin). It worked for many weeks. And now comes the problem: at the next reboot the elogd service came up automatically but all the new records I added in the logbook since I re-started manually are not there. Indeed in the C:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\logbooks the latest entry is 160408a.txt. But if I stop the service and restart elogd manually (as me not as admin), then I can see in the logbook all the new entries.
My questions is where the ascii files corresponding to the new entries? They must be saved somewhere, maybe in some temporary folder. I want to copy them back and keep them in the backup to avoid unpleasant surprise.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Antonio |

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 2.9.2 | Re: Different logbook files when running elogd as admin or normal user | So I found the my log files, but this issue should probably be documented.
When running as admin my logbook files are where they should (C:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\logbooks)
When running as local user (with no admin rights), elogd has no writing access to the logbooks directory. So it falls back to use C:\Users\[MyUserName]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\logbooks
In both cases elogd -v is not helping because it says:
elogd 2.9.2 built Feb 20 2013, 09:19:10 revision 2475
Config file : c:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\elogd.cfg
Resource dir : c:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG
Logbook dir : c:\Program Files (x86)\ELOG\logbooks\
FCKedit detected
Indexing logbook "sample" in "logbooks\sample\" ...
that is not true for the local user.
Thanks again for your help,
Antonio

I don't know why elogd uses different logbook directories depending on the user. Maybe you start it in different directories, or one user cannot read the config file and falls back to some default. Anyhow, you can start elogd interactively wit the -v flag which tells you which logbook files are parsed. There are no cache files or similar, everything is stored in Yymmdda.log files, you just have to search for them.

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 3.1.1 | Image source url missing | Dear all, sorry for asking you another question, but today after I finally recovered all my logbook entries, I updated to elog 3.1.1 and now I have a problem uploading images.
This is what I do:
- Click on the insert "Image" button in the editor toolbar
- In the popup window I select the picture I want to upload and then press "Send to server". I see the file appearing among the attachments at the bottom of the message.
- I click OK, but the popup complains that the Image Source URL is missing. Indeed when I switch to the other tab the URL field is open.
I have tried on your demo logbook and after the image is sent to the server, the URL field is automatically filled.
What am I doing wrong? With 2.9.2 it was working normally.
Thanks again and best regards
Antonio

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Request | Windows | 3.1.1 | Re: inserting pictures into a post | I have just made a fresh installation of ELOG 3.1.1 on a windows machine and unfortunately it is not working. If I try to insert a picture with the image button, the dialog complains that the image url is missing. If I drag-and-drop the picture on the edit area, it gets attached but not added as picture.
I tried already on two different computer and on the basic elog configuration.
Can you crosscheck it on your side on a win pc?
Thanks 
antonio

I don't know if you realized, but that (veeeeery old) wish has been implemented about five years ago or so. Now you can instert pictures into the body like this:

I know this thread is realy old. Anyways I would like to give a +1 on this request. As a workaround I currently wrote a small PHP Image Hosting/Upload Script and embedded a link to it in the Menue.
On that page the user uploads the image and gets a link which he/she can embedd using the button... Easy, but a bit to complicated for some users ;)

Right now it is not possible to easily include pictures into the message body, but I put it on the wishlist. Of course you can always refer to external pictures if you submit your text as HTML and put the proper tags there like this one:

and you can even scale them like 
but of course this requires to have that image stored somewhere else. I will probably add a feature like
att:name.gif
which will reference a picture from the attachment, and will be converted to the full picture name after submitting that message.
