ELOG V2.9.2-245

Using an RSS reader on a pasword protected elog

I'm trying to set up a python rss parser to read the output from my collaboration's elog, however the elog is password protected and I cannot figure out how to have a python scrip get past the login screen. Is there something obvious I'm missing that will allow a parser to submit a username and password? If that's too python-specific of a question for this audience, then what is the exact security method elog uses, so I can get information on that? I've read through the documentation and either I don't know what I'm reading (likely) or I'm not looking in the right spot.

Re: FCKEditor not working correctly on a Windows server.

I know I'm a little late but is there a way to do this from elog? I've tried using the following line in the config but it doesn't seem to work in IE10. I figure if there is a way to modify the <head> before the page loads there could be hope.

Top text = <script>var meta = document.createElement('meta');meta.httpEquiv = "X-UA-Compatible";meta.content = "IE=edge";var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];head.insertBefore(meta, head.firstChild);</script>

Richard Stamper wrote:

If you are using IE as your browser, the problem may be with that rather than the server. By default IE 11 display intranet sites in a "Compatibility mode" which breaks the FCKEditor in Elog version 3. Fortunately this mode can be disabled, which is what I have had to advise users here to do.

Click on the "cogwheel" and select "Compatibility settings"
Deselect "Display intranet sites in Compatibility view"

Sorry for the late reply. I have installed a slightly newer version of Elog, but the results are the same. I do get de the 3 editor bars, but the top 2 are greyed out and the bottom one doesn't do anything if clicked. I have commented out the lines that refer to the online equation editor, but that doesn't help much either. I think I let it rest. The old 2.9.xx version still works great, so we leave it at that.

Thanks anyway for the suggestions

Hi,

After working many years with previous versions of ELOG, I decided to update to the latest version.
I have installed ELOG version 3.1.0 on a WIndows 2012R2 server with IE 1. The editor is showing up, but everything is greyed out, execpt for some items on the bottom row. (Style, Lettertype...) and after I do load a preset text form with different colors, the page remains white. The tables and text in the form is showing up.

The previous version with the older editor was working great on the same server.

Any suggestions?

Re: notification error services in CentOS 6.5

Ok, I will include this patch in the distribution.

When you start elog it still won't show that the service started successfully (No 'OK'). If you go to stop the service, it will give you the proper 'OK' indicating it stopped successfully.

So to fix the missing 'OK' (or 'FAILED') we need to update the start section around line 51 as follows:

touch /var/lock/subsys/elogd
echo_success
else
echo_failure
fi
echo
;;

I've attached my modified init file which I believe corrects the above issues. I will say though that I'm not a programmer so I won't guarantee it's perfect. ~~I haven't checked to see if CentOS 7 works with this modified version.~~ Just checked it on a CentOS 7.2 AWS instance and it also appears to function correctly.

The init script supplied with elog was originally written for Redhat. It seems like CentOS has slightly changed the init daemon management, but I'm not an expert on that, nor do I have CentOS installed. If somebody comes with a fixed elogd.init for CentOS, I'm happy to include that in the distribution.
