Hello,
Elogd crashing when "Resubmit as new entry" is executed.
Tried with demo config, same result, also tried with snapshot version.
After the first crash i restart elogd, then it crashes every time i enter 
the logbook containing the entry i tried to "Resubmit as new entry"
Anyone seen same behavior, on win2000 platform ?.

I am working on a logbook for a lab.  I have two questions...
First - Some of the logbook entries should not be viewed by certain users.  
What would be the easiest way to restrict viewing some entries?  

Second - I have a welcome page for the ELOG that lists some info about the 
ELOG.  When I start the ELOG, the user sees the login page.  After the user 
logs in, the welcome page appears listing the restrictions.  Right now, I 
have a hyperlink that takes the user to new, find, etc.  But I would like 
to take the user right to the logbook and not have to come back to the 
welcome page everytime.  How can I do this?

I have attached the code I have so far.  They are in .txt format for easier 
viewing.

Thanks!

  66831   Fri May 21 14:37:26 2010 Entry Allenbastss@rit.eduQuestionLinux2.7.8Restricting logbook view

Is there anyway to restrict access so that a user can only see the log entries they post or only replies to their log entry?  I know it is possible to restrict editing to only posts they submitted, but I have a need to not even allow them to see other posts except for what they submitted and I am wondering if this is possible currently, or if this is planned, or could be planned for a future version?


Thanks,

 

Allen

Good morning,

I would like to ask you whether it is feasible to establish a logbook that limits access to entries, enabling each user to view only their own.
Although creating a logbook per user is an apparent solution, it does not meet my requirements.

Thank you in advance.

Leonardo

  69410   Mon Nov 15 11:35:55 2021 Question Chris Körnerchris.koerner@physik.uni-halle.deBug reportWindows3.14Restrict edit time = 0 behavior intended?

Hi,

I have set the options "Restrict edit time = 24" and "Admin restrict edit time = 0" in [global]. This way can only edit entries for 24 hours while the admin can forever. I now want a single logbook where all users have unlimited time to edit entries. However, setting "Restrict edit time = 0" in this specific logbook behaves differently to the admin setting as it simply sets the time to 0. Is this behavior intended or a bug? I guess a workaround is to specify the edit limitation not in global but in all logbooks seperately.

Hello,

please could you help me.

The Restrict edit funktion is not working. Because my user Dirk is able to edit/delete the text from user Peter:

 via select and edit.

Delete the - keep original text here - and then submit.

The whole text disappeared from the user Peter

I have tried both Restrict edit = 0 and then Restrict edit = 1

Hi,

I'd like to be able to prevent non-logged-in users from seeing what logbooks exist in a top group. Currently it seems that one is only required to log in once one has chosen a logbook. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Chris.
  1355   Thu Jul 28 04:27:30 2005 Warning PJ Meyerpjm@pjmeyer.orgBug reportWindows2.60b3Response is very slow with beta3
I finally got 2.60 Beta3 running on my server (explicit statements in cfg for most of the defaults)

Now I'm seeing a veerrry slooooow response time - over 3 minutes to open a logbook vs 10 sec in 2.54
Utilization of CPU runs to 60% on elogd.

Tried slimning down elog.cfg, 'emptying' userlog file (actually renamed so Elog created a new one).

Still 2.60b3 is very slow to respond.

When I rolled back to 2.54 speed was fast again.

Any ideas?

this is on a dual processor Win2000 server with 2 gb memory.

attached is the elog.cfg if that helps.

i'm stumped

7/28 Follow-up testing and trials

When I stopped using a password file - speed was quick and responsive (on test book with no password file speed was good which got me thinking about the password file)
When I added back in the 'old' xml password file - slow response
I created new password file with only one user - slow response (took almost 3 minutes to save new account)

I've attached the password file so you can try it out if yo want....

This has me very stumped.
