Does anyone have a method to query the log file?  I wish to automate a summary report based on a defined timeframe (8hr shift) and deliver a report to the owners/managers of the logbook. 

maybe even generate the summary report as an HTML entery within the logbook, encapsulating the enteries queried with the hyperlinks intact to the entries in question.

Anyone have something like this? Hate to recreate the wheel. I will share if I come up with something

 One hour adrift at this time of the year sounds like daylight saving.  Or compensation thereof.  What is your computer clock set to (not what time the clock reads)?

Personally I think it rather naughty that [at least older] Windoze automatically sets the clock one hour forward the first reboot after the spring switch forward, and the same in the autumn back.  What if you'd already done it, like all the rest of the clocks in the house?

 Some computer programs/OS work with the computer clock as is.  Some make adjustment for Daylight Saving.  Some - Windows comes to mind, actually adjust the computer clock back and forth as Daylight saving ends and begins respectively.  I know this because I have a dual boot computer (I use windoze for AutoCAD and one other Windows-only Java based utility[!]), and when British Summer Time starts, my Linux automatically moves the screen clock forward.  But when I subseqently boot into Windoze, it sets the computer clock forward one hour, so when I then boot back into Linux, the clock is one hour fast.

I therefore suggest again you check what your computer clock *really* is, not what the OS reports it as being, as often they think they're being clever and automatically put in Daylight Saving.

Another test - Stefan and Andreas will be shuddering hard tonight - will be to set your computer clock to December, and see if the effect is still there or has disappeared.

Hi everyone,
we have formerly used the DOOCS eLogBook from DESY for a couple of years for some application at our large
research facilities. Now we have standardized on ELOG and I've got a request to import the old DOOCS eLogBook
data into the new logbooks.
I've looked into it and the import appears to be fairly straight forward. I have two questions to the community,
before I start to program an import script:

1) Has anyone created such an import function already, and if the answer is yes, can I have it?

2) Would anyone else be interested in such a "cross logbook import", and if yes, what are your requirements?

Thanks
Andreas

 Hi All,

I'm looking for a way (or if it is even possible?) for users to browse between logbooks without being logged out of their current logbook if they click on a logbook they are not authorised to access?
If they accidentally choose the wrong logbook they are forced to log back in again?

No guest access has been configured on any log.

TIA
 

Hello community,

I have a feature request for the form of the ELOG.

For some users, especially coming from a MAC background, it is very inconvenient to press enter (ie. on the subject field) and post a message (or get prompted to do so). Instead, enter in these fields should work as a tab.

Cheers, keep up the good work,

Daniel

Have a look at this forum. If you press <enter> on the subject field, you get asked "do you really want to submit this entry" and you have the chance to cancel and continue editing. You should get the same with the current elog version.
