Hello all,

I would like to configure the email that is sent to notify users, when an entry is submitted:

- Is it possible to attach to the mail the files attached to the entry ?

- Is it possible to configure a string (with entry keywords) that will appear in the mail content instead of the default content ?

 

Thank you!

Christine

Periodically (rarely) on manually adding a record into Elog it generates a duplicate record with its own incremented ID and I don't know why. I just delete the duplicate in the meantime but would like to know if anyone else has seen this and whether their is a answer/fix for it. Thanks.

  68582   Sat Mar 18 02:10:33 2017 Question Andrew Davieladvax@triumf.caQuestionLinux2.7.5Issue with zero-length mail attachments

We have elog-2.7.5-1.i386 on SL 5

If I create an elog entry using the web interface, and include an inline image,  email is sent with a zero-length named attachment - the MIME header is present, but no content.

In the config file, Email Format = 47, though I also tried with format = 63.

Is this a bug that was fixed in a later version, or a configuration error (or a new bug) ?

This command makes the Homepage a FIND page: Start page = ?cmd=Find

My question is: can we pre-populate some of the search fields and execute the search so that the homepage becomes the SEARCH RESULTS

  68587   Wed Mar 29 14:48:40 2017 Question John Beckerj.becker@airportaruba.comQuestionLinux3.12Elog stopped working

Dear all,

 

I have elog version 3.12-bd75964 installed on an Ubuntu OS. We started working with it yesterday and today I was informed that the users could not connect to the elog. When I tried it was also not possible to get to the elog website. After restarting the Ubuntu machine everything was back to normal.

Is there a log I can check to find out why the elog stopped working?

 

Regards,

 

John

  68592   Thu Apr 6 17:36:46 2017 Question Stefano Lacaprarastefano.lacaprara@pd.infn.itQuestionLinux3.1.1command line and apache+ldap authentication
Hi,
  we are running an elogd (with SSL) server on a machine and using apache as a proxy.

The authentication to the apache server is managed via LDAP module directly by apache, while, so far, we have no authentication enabled in the elogd server itself.
So, when a used want to access the elog server, he is required to provide user/pwd by apache, and then he can access the elogs.

We would like to use the elog command line to transit entries automatically from a terminal from a different host.

the command line we are trying is:

echo "Test" | elog -v -h elog.belle2.org -a Author="stefano" -a Type="Other" -l elog -s demo -u username password  -p 443

where username password are registered into LDAP.

In response we have a 401 Unauthorized. The full return message is at the end of this message.

I suspect that the "username password" we pass to elog are supposed to be that of elogd, not that of apache/ldap: I don't know if this is the case.

Does anyone have an idea how to make this work?

Thanks in advance,
  Stefano

  68600   Tue Apr 11 22:44:40 2017 Question Andreas Luedekeandreas.luedeke@psi.chQuestionWindows3.1.2-7933898Re: rename menu commands

Hm, maybe my question is silly, but why don't you just use the "Duplicate" command instead of renaming and misusing "Copy to"??

Here is the relevant excerpt from the documentation (https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#general):

Menu commands = <list>
This option specifies the menu commands displayed on top of a single logbook page. For certain installations, it can be useful to disable some commands. Following commands are possible:

  • New - Enter new logbook entry
  • Edit - Edit current logbook entry
  • Delete - Delete current logbook entry
  • Reply - Submit a reply to current entry
  • Duplicate - Duplicate the current entry with the possibility to change some values
  • [...]
  • Copy to - Copy entry to other logbook
  • [...]

The commands are always in English, independent of the language = ... setting, and are automatically translated into the specified language.
If this option is not present, following default is used:

Menu commands = List, New, Edit, Delete, Reply, Duplicate, Find, Config, Help

Hi !

I do have an setup were I would like to rename the menu command but keeping their fonction. Namely, I would like to rename the "copy to" button to "Duplicate" since thats the option I would like to put in place ( Copy to = Same logbook only).

I tried to do so with css but it is not possible since the button doesn't have a specific id... Would you have another solution ? 

Thanks for your help !

How can i configure eLog to be used completely anonymous without the need to log in?

I tried menu and guest menu settings without luck. I do not use password files. With earlier versions this was easy to set up...

 

Thanks in advance
