Ok, just checking. I will fiddle around with running it interactively and see what
I get, plus I'll have a look at the setuser function under Solaris.
Just for grins, what version of compiler are you using under Linux?
Thanks again! |

You get the "Move To" button only after pressing "Select", otherwise it does
not make sense. See attached screendump and config example. |

Hmmm. I like the little buttons with the pull-downs for selections.
Unfortunately, I don't get that. With a config of:
Find Menu commands = New, Find, Select, Config, Change password, Logout, Help, Admin
Menu commands = Back, New, Edit, Delete, Reply, Find, Move To, Copy To, Config, Help
my screen only shows the "toggle" and "delete" buttons. Was there a recent rev
that allowed this to happen (I didn't see a comment on this).
BTW, on a log entry screen, is the appropriate behavior for the "Move To" option
to show multiple "Move To" links (one for each logbook) or should there also be
pulldowns?
Thanks |

Well, I am running 2.95.3 - hmmm. We have 3.3.2 - perhaps I'll try that and
see if there is a difference. |

New entry cannot be written to directory "./logbooks/Linux/"
Please check that it exists and elogd has write access
I started the daemon. I've not yet assigned passwords -- just checking
things out. How can I create this access to my own directory? |

| Bartjan Wattel | watt0006@mail.hzeeland.nl | Question | Linux | Windows | 2.5.3 | ELOG with stunnel won't show logbook | Hi,
I have an ELOG installation on a RedHat linux server, called myserver. I
can connect to this server with the following entries in the elogd.cfg file:
[global]
URL=http://myserver:8080
This works fine. I can log in, select logbooks, edit/create entries etc.
etc.
However, I want this connection to be encrypted. So I activate stunnel (v4)
in such a way that stunnel listens to port 8081 and forwards to the
("remote") port 8080, which is the "original" elog port. I change the URL=
entry in de elogd.cfg file to URL=https://myserver:8081 in order to use the
SSL encrypted connection.
At this time, when I connect to https://myserver:8081 I get the
welcome/login screen, but when I enter the (correct) username and password,
the elog program does not show the contents of the logbook buts shows the
loginscreen again. If I enter a wrong username/password, I do get a correct
error-screen. So it seems that the connection is correct, but there is some
sort of problem in ELOG. Anyone who can give me a hand here? |
