- We have one logbook top group for the beamtimes. Under certain conditions, a preset text is to be displayed.
{2&a} Preset Text = resource/text_1.txt
{2&b} Preset Text = resource/text_2.txt
However, the definitions of these conditions have to be repeated for every logbook in the group (putting it only under [global beamtimes] doesn't do it), otherwise they are ignored.

Any idea on these?


I tried to reproduce with this code:
[global]
port = 8080
password file = passwd
SMTP host = mail.psi.ch

{1}Preset text = Routine
{2}Preset text = Other

[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type
Options Type = Routine{1}, Other{2}

but it worked fine. Maybe some other problem?

Possible, but I think it worked also on our server until the number of logbooks in the top group got larger than one. Can you try to see if your code still works when there is more than one logbook defined?


I tried with following config file:
[global]
port = 8080
password file = passwd

{1}Preset text = Routine
{2}Preset text = Other

[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type
Options Type = Routine{1}, Other{2}

[demo2]
Attributes = Author, Type
Options Type = Routine{1}, Other{2}

and it worked fine as well. So take you (big) config file, strip one item by one, until you arrive at the simple config file above and tell me the minimal config file which produces this problem.

Edit elogd.cfg with notepad.exe directly.

MY QUESTION:

HOW do i change the automated address http://localhost:8080/ to an address where users can access?
or do i tell them the address is http://localhost:8080/ - somehow i think that is not going to work for them even though it does for me.

my address is
http://organicparents.org


If you run elog on the machine which has the internet address organicparents.org, then you will be able to access elog under http://organicparents.org:8080, given that your firewall allows this access from outside.

i am getting the idea that i am supposted to upload elog to my website ? is this correct?
ie e should make a directory for ELOG and load files - what files?
or all the files that came from the downloaded ELOG PROGRAM that i placed in my c-d rive ?

Where is your website? If it's hosted at a company, it's probably impossible to run elog there, since they only allow PHP scripts etc.

it is hosted by franceso - i have full access to everything - i have cpanel -


Then you have to install elog there from the RPM. See http://midas.psi.ch/elog/adminguide.html

is there a possibility to get instructions in newbie language?


No. You need some basic knowledge to run elog. Without this knowledge, it's better if you use some other package.
