  67537   Mon Jun 24 15:46:43 2013 Entry Martin Rongenmartin.rongen@rwth-aachen.deQuestionLinux2.9.2Enforce new thumbnails

Hi everyone

The past few days I have been editing elogd.c to link all image files to the PIXLR-API (http://pixlr.com/). I am now at a point where the edited images are uploaded fine to the elog server, but in order for the thumbnails  to refresh one needs to click edit and thus load the FCKeditor for the corresponding entry.

Any suggestions how I may be able to enforce thumbnail generation, whenever the entry is displayed.

An alternative way might be to get the original entry id associated to an attachment, but I have not been able to achieve this either.

Best regards

Martin

  67681   Fri Mar 28 14:29:24 2014 Entry David PilgramDavid.Pilgram@epost.org.ukInfoLinux2.9.2-a738A couple of observations
Hi Stefan and Andreas,

When I submitted the previous entry, I had an error message about not able to send via psxxxx.psi.ch come up as
a red bar at the top of the elog page - sorry, cannot remember the subdomain name correctly.

The observations I was going to make is firstly the change in layout of the Find section - maybe I'll get used
to it but the change in layout wasn't warmly welcomed.

Also, shame that moving from Subversion means that the increments are no longer in easy numerical order.  So I
believe that I am commenting on the latest possible version available, a738232.

A question.  My logbooks directory is now 1.8GB.  Yes, there are a lot of attachments etc to bulk it out, but
it's all plain text comments.  Is there a limit as to the size, or total number of entries?  Elog takes a
notible amount of time to index it all these days, and I have wondered whether a couple of "instabilities" might
be caused by this.  Anyone any thoughts?

I don't know how I managed it, but I got elog to generate two entries with the identical ID no.  The new entries
were different as well.  The log file faithfully had recorded the two separate replies to the entry having the
same ID no as well.   Unfortunately I went and corrected it by editing the YYMMDDa.log file without keeping a
copy.  I have also had a mysterious entry ID0 appear in threaded display, despite there being no entry 0; and if
it appears, it appears in two or three places within the list of threaded entries.

Hello,

We have a very large elog database, and executing a 'Find' on the whole range takes several minutes, locking other users out of the elog for that time. It would be very nice if there could be an option to set the default value of the 'search last ...' option on the find page. Thanks in advance!

My current setup notifies users if downtime = yes.
Email Downtime Yes = user1@xyz.com, user2@xyz.com

Is it possible to only send an email based on the value of multiple attributes?
For my use:
user1 only needs notifications if Platform = Workstation and Downtime = Yes
user2 only needs notifications if Platform = Network and Downtime = Yes
