If I use following config file:
[global]
port = 8080
password file = passwd
protect selection page = 1
[demo1]
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
[demo2]
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
then I don't get a blank page. An unavailable page you should only get whan you use top groups, and want to
access the root. |

 | Alan Stone | alstone@fnal.gov | Question | Linux | ELOG V2.6. | Change default for suppressing email notification and/or targeting entries manually | I want to change the default for suppressing email notification.
I want to be able to send email to Elog subscribers and to other people
not yet subscribed to the Elog. However, after polling the current
subscribers, they do NOT want to receive email notification for every
new Elog entry by default.
Instead of toggling the "Suppress Email notification", I would like
to toggle "Send Email notification".
I would also like the option to add additional email addresses on the fly.
Thanks in advance for any help.

The admin user can change the email subscriptions to all users in the Config page, so you just have to go through each user. Alternatively, you can stop the elog server, change the password file manually in any editor, and then restart the elog server.

You have to change the config file to add new email addresses or you have to add new users. |

| Alan Stone | alstone@fnal.gov | Question | Linux | ELOG V2.6. | Re: Change default for suppressing email notification and/or targeting entries manually | Thank you for your response. I do not think I posed my questions clearly. Let me try a different way.
If I set the following logbook configuration:
Suppress Email to users = 0
then, every time someone makes a new entry to that logbook, all subscribers get an email, unless
someone checks the "Suppress Email notification" box.
I want to preserve the configuration option. However, I want to invert the default check box, so
that no email is sent to subscribers unless someone takes the extra step to check a box which might
read "Send Email notification".
> You have to change the config file to add new email addresses or you have to add new users.
That would not work for non-admins. I was looking for a non-required
"email to/cc/send to" attribute. Obviously, one can just cut and paste
the entry into your email application.

Ahh, now I understand 
Suppress default =1
should do the job. |

I'm pretty sure that you did not delete your old cookies. Try from another computer. Make sure to have the most recent version of elog. Start the elogd daemon with the "-v" flag and watch the communication. I get for example:

As you can see, only the "urem" cookie is present. After I logged in, I get:

I'm pretty sure that you did not delete your old cookies. Try from another computer. Make sure to have the most recent version of elog. Start the elogd daemon with the "-v" flag and watch the communication. I get for example:
Well actualy these old cookies don't exist, but I found an error in the verbose mode.

Remote host "hostname" matches "ALL" in "Hosts deny". Access denied.
Remote host "hostname" matches "hostname" in "Hosts allow". Access granted.
Internal error, no valid header!
As you can see, I have implemented a temporary fix in the way of allowing only certain hosts access.
But where does this Internal error come from.
I use the standard packaged version of elog (V2.6.1) from the Ubuntu repositories. |
