Attributes = Bruger, Station, Emne, Status, PM5

Kind Regards

Hello Elog Forum

There is i ELOG the function to edit multiple posts eg. to change the staus from "ongoing" to "finished" -> in danish translation "igangværende" and "afsluttet", see the attached pictures.

When I select multiple post and want to edit them to status "afsluttet" i get the "udklip_2.jpg" entry form and change only the status to "afsluttet" (Finished)

The result is a error informing that the attribut "gem oprindelige værdier" does not exist. As a test i changed the text in the translation file from "Keep origianl values = gem oprindelige værdier" to "Keep origianl values = Keep origianl values" but the result is the same error: Attribut Keep original values does not exist.

Is there a solution to this or is or is mutiple editing of post not allowed?

Kind Regards Finn

Hi, I have been trying for a long time to get my web server logs to record when someone accesses my Elog server. I've tried Apache2, Lighttpd, and others, all with no luck. Either the web servers complain that the port I have Elog on is in use, or I just don't get any readings. I need to see who is accessing my  Elog from the web, and I hope there is a way.

Thanks again for such a wonderful program,

John

  69055   Tue Nov 5 21:42:50 2019 Question David Walliswallis@aps.anl.govQuestionLinuxV3.1.4-ba84827PAM authentication question

I'm testing the PAM authentication feature, and have a couple questions, a suggestion, and a comment.

First the comment... it was pretty easy to get working, and is exactly what we need here, so thanks! Our PAM stack here is designed to allow logins with Active Directory, LDAP, or local accounts, so the PAM option preserves all of that.

The suggestion: In order to make it work, I had to add a symbolic link in /etc/pam.d:
    elogd -> system-auth
That might be considered for addition to the documentation (this was on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.7)

The questions:

  1. The docs indicate that "Self register" must be set to >= 1, but in the code (elogd.c, line 26453), if the PAM module is enabled, Self register is overriden to 0. The result is that no "register as new user" link is displayed on the login screen. Is that the intent?
  2. Related... can PAM and File authentication both be enabled? We have some logbooks that are used by both internal people (with an A/D account) and outside collaborators that get local elog accounts. This works with LDAP + File, can it work with PAM?

Thanks in advance!

Greetings!

We've been successfully running nearly a dozen separate logbooks on independent laptops -- all of them are running elogd as a Windows service. This works well, since I've also set up auto recovery options in the event that the service inadvertently stops.

Now, I have a need to place the value of an attribute of the latest log entry into a basic text file.  Of course, this works just fine if I have launched elogd -x as a normal executable, using
Execute new = echo $Status > Last_status.log in my CFG file.  However, I would like to be able to do this using the Windows service which is running in the background. 

Is there another way to write the value of an attribute into a separate file?  If not, do I have to have a special build of ELOG in order to be able to enable the Windows service to execute shell commands?  For the record, these logbooks are running on secure laptops that are isolated onto their own network, and the user is unable to edit the CFG file.

In case you're wondering about the reason for the separate text file -- I've written a separate program which illuminates one of 4 different color signal lamps (mounted on a test station), based on the latest "Status" of the test station. (Running, Idle, Broken, Other).

I appreciate any guidance here -- this is a "big deal" here, as one glance over the floor gives us an idea of what's running (or not).

Thanks!
Frank

  69070   Mon Dec 2 23:28:28 2019 Question David Walliswallis@aps.anl.govQuestionLinuxV3.1.3Change column width in list mode?

In some of our logbooks, some columns are very narrow, which makes their content difficult to read. I have tried adding a custom css file like this:

listframe td:nth-child(3) {
   width: 250px;
}

But I find that the column width does not change. I have verified via element inspection that the width attribute is active on the correct column (td).

Am I doing someting wrong, or is this not possible?
