Sorry to bother you with such a simple question, but I am not an IT professional. We just received word that our IT department has plans to update our system to Windows 10 in 2018. Was wondering if our current version of ELOG was compatable with Windows 10? Thank You Very Much For Your Help.

Hi all,

Some elog users of our site(CSNS) mentioned some advice about attachment:

1.Can imagemagick create thumbnail for .bmp file now?

2.Can re-sort the attachments after attachments uploaded by dragging or clicking up/down arrow or anything except deleting and re-upload attachment again?

3.Can add some description under the thumbnail of uploaded attachment? I've suggested them adding the description to the name of attchment or writing the detail in the text area. They are seem not very satisfied with this solution.

Any advice and suggestion will be appreciated.

Cheers

Dear elog community,

I wonder whether there is a python3 api or lib to generate and append entries (and attachments) to the logbook using scripts.
However, so far I did not find anything...

At the moment I am thinking about wrapping the "elog" command line tool.

Is there something usable already out there?

Thanks and regards
Markus

The following error occured during the addition of new user, first time this occured:

"Cannot send email notification to "xxx@xxx.com" Sender address rejected: Domain not found

Please use your browser's back button to go back

We are using version 2.7.1-2002. Could this be a version issue? When we loaded the new version, the browser GUI was scrambled and illegible using Microsoft Edge/Explorer and Firefox.

I found a sequence which hides the message from the list.
In addition this sequence corrupts UTF encoding of the text.

1. create new message
2. submit it
3. Edit this message again
4. click SAVE and then exit the editor (click Logbook name in the header or BACK in the browser)
5. message disappeared from the list!
6. by clicking NEW message I found my lost one in the drafts, but all text was corrupted.

I've made small GIF presentation on this issue (attached, open in new window), may be this helps.

I have just upgraded elog from 2.9.2 -> 3.1.3.

3.1.3 runs fine with new logbooks. However, when trying to run 3.1.3 with my logbooks created with 2.9.2 things stop working.

Here is the command I run for testing [attachment 1]: first of all it takes a very long time (~ 10 minutes) for it to index the logbooks. When finished indexing I try it out in a web browser - it takes infinite time to load: no error message appears but also no logbook. After an hour or so elogd crashes without an error message.

When running 2.9.2 on the same machine, all runs wel (attachment 2)

cfd file: (I only left in one logbook - they are all configured the same)

[global]
port = 18080
Logging level = 3
Max content length = 500000000
Date format = %A, %d %B %Y

[Logrun - Amptek]
Theme = default
Comment = Logrun Amptec
Reverse sort = 0
Quick filter = Date, Type

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Hello!

First of all, thank you for this great piece of software! For now it seems to perfectly cover our need to log very basic events, there was a setting for everything we wanted to set.

However we have one problem and that is the saving of the letter "č" (Slovenian) into the log files. That is unicode character U+010C and U+010CD https://unicode-table.com/en/010C/. When writing to the log file it is replaced with "Č" and "č". Is there a known fix for this?

Thank you and best regards,

Matej

Hi,

I recently upgraded elog from 2.7 to 3.1 and have a hard time to insert images inline. The attachements work just fine. I am certain it is something silly, but I cannot figure it out.

1. In edit mode, I click the image icon
2. A pop-up "Image Propertied" shows with two tabs "Image Info" and "Upload" (selected)
3. Click on Browse button and select an image
4. Now
   • if I click OK, I get an error "Image source URL is missing".
   • if I go to "Image Info" tab - what URL am I supposed to enter, 68757/<1> ?

I found an old thread elog:68410 (from 2016) but could not find a solution that would work for me. Where does "Preview attachments" option should be inserted? In the global section?

Hopefully there's a simple explanation for this
