I think I remember that you can savely ignore the warning message, as long as you don't try to use the equation editor. But I haven't tested it myself; my servers can access the internet - although from behind firewall.

You should be able to configure the CKeditor with some configuration file: what plugins are to be included etc. But I haven't done it myself yet.

Well, this server has no internet connection and will not get an internet connection.
Is there a way around this issue? I do not want to use an equation editor

I do get on "Error on page" error. After switching on the developer tools, I get the following output:

If I use ELOG version 2.9.2-2455 it all works fine, but that version has an different editor.

Seriously "IE 1" ??? Javascript was invented in 1995 just before IE 1 came out, I doubt it was supported by IE 1 ;-) I guess it was supposed to read IE 11?

As far as I know the Javascript code of the CKeditor runs on the client, I would not expect the server to be the culprit. I would first try a different browser, then check if the ELOG installation was complete (check for warnings?)

Do you have a Javascript error console in your browser? It should tell you something about what is going wrong.

Okay, it is very easy: just edit "scripts/ckeditor-config.js" in the installation directory and remove the two references of "eqneditor". Any new browser session will not have the equation editor anymore.

Just to clarify: I can easily use IE11 to access my 3.1.1 version of ELOG. I run the server on a Linux box (SL6) but I don't think that this makes any difference.

I repeat my guess: ELOG is probably not installed properly on your WIndows server. My suggestion would be to move the old installation to some backup directory and do a clean reinstall. Several files are not overwritten when you just update an existing installation, maybe some of them are too old for the current version of ELOG to work properly.

I've browsed the web for the error and apparently it is appearing with a variety of IE versions in combination with certain versions of the CKeditor.

Sorry, I can't help you with the problem: only found problem reports, no fixes. Therefore my advise (for now) would be: either use the old ELOG version or use a different browser. Microsoft anyway announced the end-of-life for IE with Windows 10.

This reply has been written with IE 11 using the embedded HTML editor of ELOG. Therefore it is obviously not a problem of ELOG 3.1.1 with IE 11.

It could be a problem with your ELOG installation or it could be a problem with you IE 11 configuration. Can you use the HTML editor of this forum with IE11? Did you install ELOG 3.1.1 on top of an existing ELOG installation?

There was a recent post in the forum about IE11 and the HTML editor in the Forum. Did you read it?

Cheers, Andreas

Hi,

I've been exploring elog. I find when using IE 11, the text editor formatting buttons don't work with HTML encoding selected. The entire toolbar is grayed out. It appears to work fine with Chrome. Any ideas or direction to look? elog v3.1.1 is running on RedHat EL5. I've tried the rpm installation, and source code compilation and installation with no change.

Any input would be greatly apriciated!

John

Yes, this can be done. See below for an example configuration.

Attributes = entrytype, category
Options entrytype = routine{1}, problem{2}
Options category = software, hardware

{1} Email category software =
{1} Email category hardware =
{2} Email category software =
1@opq.rst, 2@uvw.xyz
{2} Email category hardware = a@bcd.efg, h@ijk.lmn

Phil Rubin wrote:

Is there a way to distribute e-mail based on the consideration of several attributes and values?  A simple example:  attributes type and category have several different values, say, routine and problem for type and hardware and software for category, but one would only like messages sent when there's a problem to different sets of hardware or software types.  Thus:

Email

type routine   category hardware = no message

                        category software = no message

type problem  category hardware = a@bcd.efg, h@ijk.lmn

                         category software = 1@opq.rst, 2@uvw.xyz

Hi Daniel,

this is an undesired side effect of a new feature. I wouldn't call it a bug ;-)

There is no straight forward way for elog to distinguish between a "Submit" and an automatic save. Therefore the "... on edit = ..." kicks in when an entry is saved automatically.

I guess Stefan can figure out a workaround, but for the moment I would sugest that you just switch off the auto save feature -- if you want to keep your save history:

Save drafts = 0

Cheers
Andreas
 
Daniel Sajdyk wrote:Save drafts = 0

Hello.

In Elog i have attribute called "Zmieniano" (eng. changed)  which should store how many times entry was edited. If entry was not edited it should have only preset value "oryginalny wpis" (eng. oryginal entry), but when I edit it, it should have also date, time, and person who make edit (this is made by "Subst on Edit Zmieniano = $Zmieniano<br>- Zmiana $date przez $long_name z $remote_host)". 

From version V3.1.1-3f311c5 I have problem with that. 

When I add entry, and entry is auto saved, then auto save is shown in the attribute "Zmieniano" (eng. changed) as an next edit, which I dont want. Entry from attached screenshot was not edited, but in "Zmieniano" (eng. changed) attributes it has two values:

  • Oryginalny wpis (eng. oryginal entry),
  • Zmiana 27.08.2015, 10:52 przez Daniel Sajdyk z serwerownia.sr.lez (eng. Changed 27.08.2015.... ) 

The second value is autosave time. 

Is this a bug?

 

Regards

Daniel.

I can confirm this bug.

But I don't think this has to work as you've described it, when using the HTML editor: if you use HTML, you can use the link feature of the editor.
But that link feature does currently not work at all with internal elog references, not even a simple elog:1">elog:1 (as you can see here). I suppose there is some more work to do for Stefan on that ;-)

Hey,

the syntax for creating links to other elog entries has a small issue in the HTML editor. The link will not be created properly if there are whitespaces in the name of the logbook. Using ELCode (or in a simple attribute field) the whitespaces can be replaced by "+", but this does not work in the HTML editor. The work-around would be to use ELCode mark-up instead of HTML.

Example 1 (this should work): elog:Contributions/47

Example 2 (this will not work): elog:Config+Examples/11

Example 3 (will also not work): elog:Config%20Examples/11
