I would like to implement ELOG as a logbook for our Windows 2000 
servers.  After making the recommendation, my supervisor replied: 

"The problem and perhaps the only problem is what happens when the server 
is down. Electronic log books should be able to replicate from more than 
one source so you can document let’s say from your laptop – and upload to 
the server later."

   Can anyone help me out here with some scenarios to improve fault-
tolerance?  

   Perhaps installing it on multiple servers and synchronizing the data 
and config folders with the NT File Replication Service?  

   Or installing it on one server and each administrator's laptop and 
using Offline Files to synchronize the data?

Any feedback would be appreciated,

An experiment's ELOG installation, using the default theme, names logbooks after its subsystem's acronyms.  One subsystem is referred to as KTAG, but when this name (or its lowercase version) is used for a logbook name, the logbook appears unformatted.  Changing the name, even to K-TAG, works fine.  Nothing close to KTAG appears in elog.css.  Does anyone know why this happens and whether it is possible or worth the while to get around the "problem"?

I upgraded my system, including the version of Firefox.

I normally view the topic in Threaded Collapsed mode, right click on the entry I want to reply to, to open a new
Tab.  However, I made a mistake an opened a new Window, as the two 'open' modes in Firefox swapped around.
But no worry, I thought, made my reply as usual.

However, when refreshing the topic afterwards, seemingly randomly distributed throughout the topic were
additional lines, with the latest entry showing up emboldened (but not as a clickable link), and the only
difference being the ID number which showed as 0 (zero).

Deleting the reply only caused the previous reply to show up randomly etc.

In effect, the latest entry is (randomly?) scattered throughout the topic - even in between entries older than
any in that thread, so it's not individial entries in that thread showing up.

The only way to get rid of it was to erase the whole directory, and re-install from backup (which, as it was the
first entry since the new installation, wasn't painful).  It's been fine since - but only so long as I open a
thread in a new tab, and not in a new Window.

I guess the real question is just what is added to some file - perhaps the .cfg file? - that using a separate
window causes this behavioir?  Any whay only as a new window, and given how elog is supposed to work on many
computers, why on this stand-alone computer running two sets of the same browser?

It happened once before at the end of last year during a regression backwards owing to the newer computer
failing and turning back to an older one with older OS and older firefox, where I did the same thing (in
reverse).  As I didn't investigate at that time, I still have the mystery line showing up in that topic.

Sorry this is a bit rambling, but its very hard to describe!

I have been using v2.6.  I works fine so far for what I need except that I could not disable the attachments in the notification emails.  Now I need to upgrade to a latest version v2.9.  However, with this latest version, I've received this error when navigate pages:  "Error: Too many parameters (> 120). Cannot perform operation".   What does this error mean?  Should I do to fix it?  I also have tested other version 2.7 and 2.8 as well.  The problem exists.

Is there a way of having multiple copies of elog running on one windows 2003 server? different ports?

I need to access 2 different elogd.cfg files.

Hi noob question I was looking for a config but i cant make it, how to i make multitab logbook like this page?

Like in Discussion there are forum,config examples,contribution and vulnerabilities under it

Thanks

Hi,

First of all, thanks for all the great work, we all thank you here at SESAME synchrotron 

I am trying to set a conditional attribute where selecting one option in that attribute should trigger multiple outcomes as shown below:

Options Type = Fault{1_1&1_2}, Test{2_1&2_2}, Report{2_1&2_2}

{1_1} Options Fault Status = Open{a}, Fixed{b}
{2_1} Preset Fault Status = NA
{1_2} Preset Icon = attn.png
{2_2} Preset Icon = icon1.gif

I tries adding "&" as shown but that didn't work, my goal is to have 1_1 and 1_2 triggered whenever I select "Fault" as type, how can I do that?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Sofian.
