| Heiko Scheit | h.scheit@mpi-hd.mpg.de | Bug report | Linux | 2.3.9 | not proper HTML |
I just upgraded from 2.3.5 to 2.3.9.
There are some errors in the generated HTML. Most of the time
the browser renders everything correctly but sometimes not. Please
check especially (http://validator.w3.org/):
- http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Database/7
There are too many <table> tags before the attribute list:
'Type', 'Operating system',... This should be just one table and
not each row a separate table. Also the first <table> tag lies
outside a <td> tag of the enclosing table.

| Kishore Masand | kishorem@hotmail.com | Question | Windows | 2.3.9 | How to get a list of registered users assigned to an attribute? | Hi,
I am trying to create an issues logbook where I have defined an attribute
so I can track who this issue is assigned to. In order to get a drop-down
list of users of the system to show up for that attribute (when creating a
new issue), I have to type in the whole list of users in the config file.
The problem is that whenever a user self-registers, I have to go into the
config file and add that user to the list. Is there a way to write
something like this:
Options Assigned To = $user_list
I am a new user, and am thoroughly enjoying working with ELog. Thanks for
such a neat product. I have not been able to go through all the logs yet
to figure out if this question has been asked/answered before. |

| eric wooten | wootene@verizon.net | Request | Windows | 2.3.9 | Account expiration | I know there's an item on the wishlist for password expiration, so how
about account expiration..?? (after so many days of inactivity).
One complaint that comes from management is that when a user leaves the
agency, the elog account seems to never get deleted. There way of asking
me, why I never keep up with the user account deletions. Ha Ha, like I
have time to constantly compare the user list from elog to the user list of
other systems.
Another plea on my part, for Elog to allow for authentication via external
database - such as LDAP, so we wouldn't have to maintain another user
database.
Thanks,
Eric |

No, it cannot be done right now, but it's on the wishlist since some time.
So I added your vote there. |

Thats the basic idea.
Can it be done? If so, how?

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | | 2.3.9 | Re: Need fault-tolerance recommendations for using ELOG for Server Logs | I was thinking since some time already about mirroring between elog servers,
and actually started already some implementation.
The problem with mirroring on the file level does not work. Assume two
servers "serv1" and "serv2". Then assume that one message gets submitted on
serv1 and at the same day another message gets submitted on serv2. Now you
have on both servers a file 030726a.log, but you cannot copy this file
simply from one server to the other, since you would overwrite the message
submitted on the other server. Furthermore, you need file level access,
which is maybe easy between your laptop and your desktop computer, but not
if the two mirror servers are in different countries. Like in our
collaboration we have three servers located in Switzerland, Italy and Japan
(meg.psi.ch, meg.pi.infn.it, meg.icepp.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp), where we cannot
have direct disk access.
So what I propose is the following mirror scheme:
o Each elog server may contain a list of mirror servers in the configuration
file
o Each elog server calculates an MD5 checksum from all local messages
o Synchronization between servers can be triggered manually (by clicking
on "Synchronize") or automatically at a given time and interval
o On Synchronization, the elogd server fetches the MD5 list from the mirror
server and compares it with the local list
o If a message has been edited remotely but not locally, it's fetched and
stored locally, same in the other direction
o If a message got edited on both sides since the last synchronization, the
user is asked to resolve the conflict (keep local or keep remote message)
o If there is a new message locally, its submitted at the remote server, but
with the same submission date/time as locally, same in the other direction
o If new messages are present on both sides, their message ID is changed so
that it is unique, then they are copied over. If there are already replies
to this message, their link (using the message ID) is changed accordingly
So I plan to implement this scheme in the next time. The MD5 checksum is
already there. If anybody has comments or additional wishes concerning
mirroring, telling them right now would be great, since I then can
accomodate them easier during the implementation.

| Shawn Larson | shawn@larson.net | Question | | 2.3.9 | Need fault-tolerance recommendations for using ELOG for Server Logs | 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,
Shawn Larson |
