To my knowledge you need a VirtualHost entry, plus a "URL = http://exo-elog.stanford.edu" entry in elogd.cfg

Hi all! This is an HTTP POST request submitted from the command line using curl, and providing no authentication information. If I can post as myself using this command, then shouldn't something be done about this?


Yes indeed. I fixed that in SVN revision 1655. I upgraded this server so you can try again if it works.

It seems that the condition ID must be unique across the whole elogd.cfg.


Right. Here is a quote from the Manual:


ELOG Manual wrote:
The only requiremnt is that conditions are unique, meaning that a condition in one option list cannot be used in another list.


So just read the manual Wink

Hi There,

When you find a set of records in ELOG and then 'click through' the returned list it runs through then in order of ID. - I s there a way to modify this behaviour?

Many Thanks
Fergus


Unfortunately not.

Dear ELOG users,

a denial of service vulnerability has been reported which affects all elog versions prior to 2.6.2-7. With a special request one can crash the elogd server, given that one has access either through a public read access or through an account. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 2.6.2-7. It is advised that all sensitive installations of ELOG are being updated.

I look at the source code and see <br />. It could be the reason.

  2098   Tue Nov 28 12:48:47 2006 Idea Stefan Rittstefan.ritt@psi.chInfoAll2.6.3Version 2.6.3 released today
Dear ELOG users,

ELOG version 2.6.3 has been released today. It contains all the bug fixes, security fixes and a few new features collected since the last release which was actually almost half a year ago. The changelog contains all the details.

Due to the security fixes it is recommended to upgrade from any version prior to 2.6.3. Please note that the location of all password and log files has been moved from the main elog directory to the logbook directory. This means that after upgrading you have to move your password file manually, otherwise you cannot log in any more. This modification was requested because some ELOG installations (especially ones with top groups) can now have a read-only main directory.

  2145   Wed Feb 28 21:04:59 2007 Idea Stefan Rittstefan.ritt@psi.chInfoAll2.6.4-1801Simple table implemented in ELCode
Starting from SVN revision 1801, simple tables are supported in ELCode tags. One can now embed tables in elog entries like this:
[table border=3 cellpadding=10]
One | Two
|-
Three | Four
[/table]

which produces following table:

One Two
Three Four


The syntax is explained in the ELCode help page.
