icon5.gif   Strange browser behaviour with chrome?, posted by Tim Schel on Mon Mar 30 14:46:28 2015 2015-03-30_14_25_52-ELOG_Amadou.png2015-03-30_14_25_32-ELOG_Kandidaten.png
Hello there,

I have been using ELOG for 4 years now and all of a sudden I see a strange behaviour.
As you can see in the screenshots below I have configured 6 logbooks (tabs) ... only 2
display (colors in CSS?) correctly as configured.
There haven't been any changes recently configuration wise .. but I suspect my chrome
has been upgraded silently.

Any ideas why one logbook (see screenshot 2) called Kandidaten would display
correctly and the other called DSP doesn't?
The first screenshot displays all rows in blue and purple letters ....
The Logbook Stagiairs even has multiple behaviours .... some of it sub books display correctly
and some don't.

I have a new colleague since a few days who uses the ELOG as well but using Internet Explorer
and she doesn't have this strange behaviour. I can rule out configuration error since
I stripped configuration and added verbosity logging level up and nothing was detected.

Is this possible solely due to chrome update (of which I am not even sure).
I looked at the CSS source of both screenshots and I notice that in the first case (wrong!)
there is no CSS class attributed to the TD elements.

Anyway I can understand that the browser displays everything wrong ... but this behaviour
I cannot explain.
icon5.gif   Strange Error, Service hangs when record is deleted., posted by Chuck Brost on Wed Jun 11 19:18:06 2014 

I have 4 services running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 machines, 4 separate logs, only one of them is doing this, but that could be because only one of them is trying to delete records once they are posted, I cannot say.

On that one log, everything runs fine until they try to delete a record, and they are doing it under the admin login, but the service hangs.  anyone trying to log in get the 404 error that the page is not available.  to clear it I have to open Manage/Services and then Task Manager.  First I kill the process for that log book, then I can restart the service and everything is back.. trying to stop the service and then start it, or just restart the service, this does no good, in fact, it will hang at stopping the service.. it is not responding at all.  this happened to the same log when I had this on the original Windows Server 2003, so it is not new.. they just don't delete things for a long time, then they seem to do it every week, more than once.. and usually at night or on the weekend. (are they just doing it to mess with me?  Maybe, but I do not think so since it would not get me in trouble if I were busy, out of town or just not home and could not get to it until the next business day and they know this..

Any ideas what could cause this?

icon5.gif   Strange Behavior in "Find" Function, posted by Eric Quintero on Tue Dec 16 01:15:40 2014 

Hi all,

We've been happily using ELOG for years, but ran into an odd problem when replacing the old Solaris server that ran the ELOG with a newer box running Ubuntu. 

Basically, when I try to search the log, the URL seems to be malformed. I.e. the form produces the query string:

?mode=summvry&reverse=0&reverse=1&npp=35&m&y&Authorthor=ericq

Instead of a functional one like:

?mode=summary&reverse=1&npp=35&Author=ericq

We're running v2.8.1, since we like using the global write password mode; our log is viewable here: http://nodus.ligo.caltech.edu:8080 Any ideas what could've gone wrong? Installation was pretty straightforward, the code compiled happily on the ubuntu machine. 

Incidentally, I notice this logbook is running V3, using CKeditor. Any hints when these might be available for public use?

Thanks!

icon5.gif   Strange "bug?" report - disappearing data when attribute is "Locked", posted by Steve Jones on Thu Mar 9 06:04:46 2006

I have come across an issue where an attribute value is "blanked" upon either editing or replying. The interesting thing is this is a logbook entry that was "Moved" from one logbook to another, all under the same Top Group. All configs are done under the [global <topgroup>] so the attribute is not being reset on purpose. Most interesting of all is this only happens:

  • if the attribute is "locked" (the logbook being moved "To" locks most attributes)
  • if the attribute is of type "date"
  • if the logbook entry had been "moved" from another logbook


If the logbook entry is subsequently moved back, all works as it should - even the locked date attributes.
temporary workaround is to "unlock" the date attributes - which really messes with things if people decide to change the dates.
icon5.gif   Storing Elog database files in version control (CVS/SVN/GIT)?, posted by Brett Viren on Mon Mar 23 19:30:09 2009 
Hi,

Is it possible to store ELOG back-end database files in version control so as to synchronize multiple ELOG
instances?

Has anyone tried it? Any obvious show stoppers to such an approach?

Cheers,
-Brett.
icon5.gif   Sticky entries?, posted by Peter Freeman on Sun Apr 6 06:17:00 2008 

Hi, I'm evaluate currently if we can use ELOG as an shiftbook. So far I like ELOG very much, but I got a question.

Is it possible to have sticky message entries? Entries that always show up on top of the others. Thats for important entries that are valit for multiple shifts. 

Have looked arround here, but could not find anything in that direction.

Many thanks for any answer.

Peter
