I can think of two reasons why you don't see a change:
1) You modified the wrong file. The elog.css file is under elog/themes/default/elog.css. If you "install" elog, it might go into your installation directory. So check if you have more than one file with this name.
2) After the change, you did not reload the page in your browser.
Try to request the file directly in your browser with <url to elog>/logbook/elog.css then you will see the actual file your browser is using. Make sure your modification is present there.

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your prompt follow up. I did try commenting of the width statement for listtitle2 and also reducing it to 40% but it did not work. I restarted elogd daemon and I don't see the columns changing. I also tried putting a percentage number (40%) for listtitle1 just to try and no change either. Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

You can't directly change individual columns, but you can reduce the "Text" column. This is done in themes/default/elog.css. Search for "listtitle2" and change or remove the line "width:100%". This makes the text column narrower, leaving more space for the subject column.

I'm trying to expand the Subject column, when viewing in summary mode, and couldn't find any documentation for it. Is this possible and if so, how would I do it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

| John | secondcomingtechnologies@fastmail.com | Question | All | ELOG V3.1.2-bd7 | How to change name of record Id from $@MID@$. |
Hi Everyone,
I tried using this $@MID@$ in JS as a variable and cannot doit. I researched a little and found no answer on special character usage. If anyone knows, please lemme know. I also tried breifly in Elogd to change it to something like just MID, but need a better editor as (Kate) is not saving the program back in correct iso (character) format. So I thought I'd pose the question in the meanwhile.
Thanks, John |

No idea what you are talking about. $@MID@$ is used in the database files to indicate the start of a new message. It is not used on any elog web page. If you want to put the message ID on your web page, you should use the variable "$message id" as written in the documentation. You say JS, where is your JS running? You wrote a JS program to work on the raw elog database files? Or you wrote an extension to run in your browse? You have to be a bit clearer.

Hi Stefan,
I have only one elog.css file in the default directory and the installation path is the same one that I'm using. Basically, I'm using off of the installed path. I also tried, modifying the file and calling it elog_mod.css and then specified CSS=<path>/elog_mod.css and started the server again. I did not see any changes. Is there something else I'm missing here.
Thanks.

| Jose Caballero | jcaballero.hep@gmail.com | Question | Linux | 3.1.4 | testing the client: unclear it worked |
Hello,
I just gave it a quick try to the command line client, to see if I can use it to access our institution service.
[root@host ~]# cd /tmp/
[root@host ~]# mkdir elog
[root@host ~]# cd elog
[root@host ~]# wget https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/RPMS/elog-3.1.4-2.el7.x86_64.rpm
[root@host ~]# rpm2cpio elog-3.1.4-2.el7.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv
[root@host ~]# cd usr/local/bin/
[root@host ~]# ./elog --help
[root@host ~]# ./elog -h <hostname> -l <logbook> -u <myusername> <mypassword> -w last
"Message successfully transmitted, ID=-1"
Is that the expected output? I was expecting to see info about the latest message in the server.
Cheers,
Jose |

| VUIIS SysAdmin | vuiis-sysadmin@vumc.org | Question | Linux | ELOG V3.1.4-966 | Missing log files when rsync to replacement server. |
I am moving from a Hyper-V host to a VMware host and created a new elog server. I installed the elog software and did an rsync to get the .cfg file and logbooks to the new server.
rsync -av root@old.elog.server:/usr/local/elog /usr/local/
On the new server all of the 2020 entries are missing and there does not appear to be a 2020 logbook on either server but I can still access the 2020 entries on the old server. Where might they be and how do I get them over to the new server.
Old server says version is ELOG V3.1.4-unknown and new server says version is ELOG V3.1.4-966e3dd

The <hostname> you have to actually replace with your real host name. Same for logbook, username and password.
On my local test system I get (actual password hidden here with "...")
~$ elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l demo -u stefan ... -a Authort=SR -a Subject=test test
Message successfully transmitted, ID=5

Start your new server interactively with "elogd -v 3" to see all verbose output. You will then see how it indexes all logbooks. If not, you might have a wrong path in elogd.cfg
