Hi all,

Quick question -- I was wondering if the current Windows Binary/Installer is now compiled for compatibility for Windows 11?  

I did look through the Forum, but the the answer wasn't really clear.  

Thanks!
Frank B.

I am on ubuntu 24.04.1, I needed to git clone, make and make install,

HEAD is 3fb85fa6 - (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) Fixed compiler warning (3 weeks ago)

It crashes on every attachment:  thank you. Jaro

I've inherited a position that includes deploying elog for an at-sea mission. Once at sea there's no gauntee of internet connection so I have to be sure things are going to work before hand. The machines I currently have (we have several backup machines) are running elog version 2.9.2 and I'm looking for a change log, or feature list to determine if it's safe to update the at-sea laptops to the latest version of elog.

On one hand, I could leave things as they are and I'm sure it will just work, on the other hand, I hate seeing things get out of date to the point that something just stops working some day and there's no ability to get support for old software.

I'm already running elog 3.1.4 on my personal machine I use for configuration development and testing and it seems to work well. The config file is pretty simple and seems to work with 2.9.2 on the at-sea machines, but I don't want to run into any suprises if there ends up being a compatibility issue at sea.

Hello,

I'm trying to create config file for simple incident logbook. It should has 3 attributes:

1. source (source of incident) with options: 
   1. email
   2. jira_id
   3. ezd_id
2. Tactics (from MITRE but for simplicity I wrote only this):
   1. aaa,
   2. bbb,
3. Technics (also from MITRE but also for simplicity I wrote only this):
   1. tactics1, tactics2,
   2. tactics3, tactics4

And this is not working.

For me it looks that choosing first attribute - Source - causes problems, because after that I cannot choose third - Technics - attribute.

When I will start filling attributes from the second - Tactics - then Technics options are avaiable. 

Below is config file:

Theme = default
Page Title = ELOG - $Theme

Attributes = Source, Technics, Tactics

Options Source = Email{a}, Jira{b}, EZD{c}
{a} Attributes = Source, Adres_email, Technics, Tactics
{b} Attributes = Source, JIRA_ID, Technics, Tactics
{c} Attributes = Source, EZD_ID, Technics, Tactics

Options Technics = aaa{1}, bbb{2}
{1} Options Tactics = tactics1, tactics2
{2} Options Tactics = tactics3, tactics4

Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Source, Technics, Tactics

I will appreciate any help.

Best Regards

Hi!

I am not sure if this is a know issue: it seems that the equation editor does not work anymore. Is there any fix or alternative method to type latex formula in the log? 

Thank you!

Hi!

I like to format an Elog "directory" such that all entries make/occur as a table. Say: 5 columns and a large number of rows. In a sense, make an excel spreadsheet in Elog. Is this possible? How can this be done? Is there perhaps a template?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not exactly sure what you want to do, but there are two options in elog:

1) Insert directly a table like this one:

2) Use one ELOG entry as a row in a table. You can try this by clicking on "List" here in the Forum should you not already see the list display, then on "Summary" which give you a spreadsheet like display, where you can specify in the config file which columns of the ELOG entries you want to see. See also the demo here: https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/

Best,

Stefan

Anyone using elog on FreeBSD nowadays?  I know it used to be in the ports tree about 10 years ago but seems to be abandoned.  Tried to compile from source on 14.1, but no luck there.

Welp, nevermind, I dug a little more and managed to compile it on 14.1 using cmake.

I am still struggling to get ELOG running behind a load balancer and hope to get some advice here. As already reported in https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/69542 I observed an infinite loop of redirects when prompted to log in and using a non-empty password file. Without a password, the service worked as expected. This was with version 3.1.3.

With the new version 3.1.4-3, I get another error: "Invalid Content-Length in header" when I click on "submit" of a new post. Viewing the logbooks works fine. The instance is currently live and running here: https://elog.test.km3net.de but I might change it anytime due to debugging etc.

This is a kind of difficult thing to debug (I spent the whole day and no progress). The only thing I've found was this post: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/iis-support-blog/invalid-content-length/ba-p/3038724 where it seems that some responses are not RFC conform and were rejected in the load-balancer.

The load balancer I use is HAProxy, the same as in my old setup where I got the infinite redirects, and I can't find any setting which would work. To my understanding, the most basic setup should work just fine. The SSL termination is on the load-balancer side so ELOG doesn't even have to know anything about it. The configuration is below. I am running a single instance, so there is not even replication with session keep-alive via cookies or anything fancy.

I also want to mention that I am runnin around 30 different services behind the load balancer and none of them are having any issues with the SSL termination or the load-balancing itself, that's why assume that something in ELOG is either non-conform or buggy.

Any thoughts? I'd really like to use the same infrastructure for the ELOG service as for every other service (automatic certificate renewal via letsencrypt, load-balancing, easy movement to other nodes, SSL termination etc.), to minimise the complexity of our Docker Swarm system.

Btw. I am running ELOG with -v but I don't see any error whatsoever in the logs:

I put the ELOG service behind an Apache reverse proxy which is now sitting behind the HAProxy. It works like this, but it's just a workaround. I am pretty sure that ELOG has problems to communicate with HAProxy correctly and it seems that Apache is more forgiving. So that the chain HAProxy -> Apache -> ELOG and vice versa is working.

If anyone manages to figure out what's wrong, I am happy to get rid of the extra reverse proxy layer!

I have the same problem. I found a temporary solution: https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/69807

I changed elog to interprete the content-length header case in-sensitive and committed the change. Can you try again?
