Create Logbook Directories
- We must create the Logbook Directories before restarting elog.
mkdir /usr/local/elog/logbooks/Chico mkdir /usr/local/elog/logbooks/Fremont mkdir /usr/local/elog/logbooks/Sacramento mkdir /usr/local/elog/logbooks/SanJose
Restart ELOG
kill -HUP {elogPID}
or
killall elogd /usr/local/sbin/elogd -D -c /usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg -p 8080
- Working on Script to automate this..
