Good Morning,

I would like to limit the ability to edit certain attributes in an ELOG logbook, depending on the user who is logged in.  I.e. if "guest" or a standard "login user" is logged in, I only want to allow the user to edit "attribute1" & "attribute2" of say, 5 attributes.  However, if an Admin user or specific user, say "Terry" or "Bob" is logged in, I want to allow ALL 5 attributes to be editable.  To expand on this, I may want to even limit the visibility of the attributes as well.

I've read though "Condition Attributes" section of the help page, but it is not clear to me how/if I can do this?  Is that section even relevant to what I want to accomplish?

Can anyone provide some guidance?

Thank you for your time & help!

Sincerely,

Terry

Using the elog client to upload atachments, I can successfully send attachments to an existing elog, however the existing attachments are lost.

I have tested using the elog client version 3.1.1 and elog client version 2.9.2 sending to elogd 2.9.0

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l test -f  file1.png -f file2.png -e 249 -v -x

This works great, the text contained in the elog post is retained, however all attachments are lost and replaced with those sent by this command.

Can anyone provide some tips? I am not sure if its a problem with the client or server.

Thank you in advance!

Joseph

Good day,

My question is : Is it possible to submit to multiple logbooks simultaniously ?

I have 5 logbooks that could share common attributes, is there a way to acheive that without recreate a new entry in each of them ?

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

we have been using elog 2.7.1 as a logbook to signal problems and so on in our Engine Room Simulator for a couple of months now. Since this is exactly what we're looking for, I've installed the latest release in our sailing simulator as well. On this occasion I thought about updating the logbook in our engine room simulator as well. Unfortunately I cannot do that, because I get the error "elogd.exe is not a valid Win32 application" with every version of elog higher than 2.9.2 (so every version 3.x.x). The difference between our two simulators is that the elog package for the sailing simulator is installed on a Windows Vista machine, while the version for the engine room simulator is installed on a Windows 2003 Server.

Question: can I get/find/compile the latest version as a Win32 application and if yes: how or where?

Thanks,

Jean Pierre

Hi,

We have a user who posted a lot of inline jpg.  The elog system converted those to png and thus cause the size of the elog to expand about ~4x of the original size.  It is caused the problem of entry size too large for email notifications.  Is there a way to turn off the conversion to png picture file?  May I know also know why it converts to png to store on the server?  Thank you very much.

How can I host elog in a web server. I need sample config file on [global] segment to show config on how it can be host. Please need your help. Thanks

Good Day

I am new to elog and have a question. This is best explain with an example. If I have two logbooks named "home" and "work" and I would like all the entries of home to be of a specific html format (for example a table containing
a set amount of rows and columns) and work can be any plain text entry how would I go about doing this? I saw the documentation mention something about html templates but i cant seem to find the section about where they are stored
or how they are created and applied to a specific logbook. I know how to restrict the entry encoding to either html, elcode or plain text for a logbook. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Stefan,

Good day. I'm thinking if this wishlist is already available in elog. The values in columns we're added or computed according to formula set in a single separate column.

Thanks,
