Hi Erkcan,

I observed similar behaviours when attempting to do SSL uploads and mirroring over a WAN (see some of my recent posts).  Having not received any responses/help, and no time to try debugging the source myself, I've changed the way I use ELOG such that my attachment uploads are always local (on my Mac laptop, where I do most of my ELOGging) and I have switched off the mirroring, choosing instead to do my own rsync backup to a central linux server on which I have running a read-only ELOG executable.  This configuration is both relatively secure and stable, and it matches my use case well.  More generally, however, it is unfortunate that this SSL and mirroring functionality isn't truly there for all users, even though the documentation touts it to be so.

Best regards,

Andreas W.

The problem is present in my old elog installation (from ~2 years ago), as well as the latest git snapshot from bitbucket that I cloned on June 10, 2017.

PS: Upload seems to work for non-secure configuration. It still takes a while to load, but it completes. However we prefer to use secure connections ( SSL = 1 ).
PS: Using nmap I looked at the latency to the relevant port, it can be as high as 0.5sec, but most often it is shorter.

  68629   Sat Jun 10 07:05:24 2017 Question Erkcan Ozcanerkcan@gmail.comBug reportLinuxV3.1.3-aded4aeServer dropping SSL connection while uploading large files

Hi,

I am having trouble with uploading large (>0.5MB) files to elog. We click on upload and in a couple of seconds, the webbrowser complains that the server has dropped the connection.

Following the suggestions I found on these forums (https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/66753), I increased the timeout.tv_sec to 30 in three locations in elogd.c, but this did not help.

The problem is present in my old elog installation (from ~2 years ago), as well as the latest git snapshot from bitbucket that I cloned on June 10, 2017.

PS: Upload seems to work for non-secure configuration. It still takes a while to load, but it completes. However we prefer to use secure connections ( SSL = 1 ).
PS: Using nmap I looked at the latency to the relevant port, it can be as high as 0.5sec, but most often it is shorter.

Cheers,
e.

Hi,
  a possible solution is to change the current SetAll() and SetNone() javascript functions to something like:


  <!--
function SetNone()
{
  for(var i=0,els=document.querySelectorAll('[name^="sub_lb"]'); i<els.length; i++)
  {
    els[i].checked = false;
  }
}
function SetAll()
{
  for(var i=0,els=document.querySelectorAll('[name^="sub_lb"]'); i<els.length; i++)
  {
    els[i].checked = true;
  }
}
//-->

It works on Chromium 58.x and Firefox 53.x, I don't know about other browsers.

The javascript snippet is generated in function elogd.c: void show_config_page(LOGBOOK * lbs) (line 13960-984 on my version of the source code).

Best,
  Stefano
