Yes, I used the empty `passwd` file from example. When I then click on one of the logbooks, I get to the page where I can register a user (see attached screenshot). After clickin on "Save" for the user registration, I again get the redirect error. Once there is a registered user (i.e. a non-empty password file) the redirect issue is persistent. Any idea where the problem might be? I just emptied the password file again, so you can have a one-shot, if you like.

Btw. I have SSL termination in the load balancer, so ELOG does not need to do any SSL related things (the swarm is in a locally isolated network, so all internal communication between the load balancer and the swarm machines are safe). Maybe that's the issue? On the other hand, the main page loads fine and uses SSL termination too, so I don't know, maybe there is logic behind the authentication which collides with the SSL termination.

Has anyone had issues with having too many files open? I'll setup my server and let it go but after a while, I end up with a lot of "cannot create socket: Too many open files" errors being reported.  I have a sync to another e-log going which I suspect is part of the cause since that e-log server hasn't had this issue. I suspect that there are files being opened, going into some return loop code and then never getting closed. I'm not a C programmer but I see lines like :

fh = open(tmp_filename, O_RDONLY);
      if (fh > 0) {
         read(fh, result, size - 1);
         close(fh);
      }

      /* remove temporary file */
      remove(tmp_filename);

This looks like it opens the file but unless the remove function closes the file, it will remain open even through the file has been deleted. Maybe this isn't the correct behaviour of 'remove' and I am mistaken?

There are also parts like :

 fh = open(textfile, O_RDONLY | O_BINARY);
      if (fh < 0) {
         printf("Message file \"%s\" does not exist.\n", textfile);
         return 1;
      }

      size = (INT) lseek(fh, 0, SEEK_END);
      lseek(fh, 0, SEEK_SET);

      if (size > (INT) (sizeof(text) - 1)) {
         printf("Message file \"%s\" is too long (%zd bytes max).\n", textfile, sizeof(text));
         return 1;
      }
This looks like for the second error, it will complain that the file is too long, return an error message but not close the file and would leave it open. Is this a reasonable avenue to pursue or am I mis-reading the code?   Thanks.

My Time field is displayed i  a 12 Hour format I would like to change it to 24 Hours, can someone advised how it can be done

I get the following error where thumbnails should go: Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation.

I restarted elog and check the log, it does in fact detect ImageMagick and it does have the most recent version. I'm running ubuntu 2.6.24-19-server.  Is there something else I should be checking?

Can you email a thread of log entries. I think this would be a very useful function, which would enable the logger in effect to send an entire history of a particular issue to the interested parties.
