 | Ken Harvey | richard.harvey@l-3com.com | Question | Linux | 2.9.1-2435 | Re: author field in reply |
I am a newbie to being the administrator to ELog, but have used it for a while now. We just updated and have the same issue with the reply now. Unfortunatley I am not much of a programmer, yet, still learning. In our config file it has "Preset Name = $long_name", "Preset Author = $long_name", "Preset on reply Author = $long_name". By looking in the Syntax of elogd.cfg section, it seems to be correct, but I am not sure. Can you give me a suggestion on how it should look? Or tell me why it is not working and lead me in the right direction on how to correctly set it up? Thank you for your time. |

 | Ocane | reuldky@yahoo.com | Question | Linux | 2.9.1-2435 | Protect Selection page=1 |
Hi,
I have several top groups and each has several logbooks.
If I use the global option Protect Selection page=1 and Show top groups = 1, after an user logs in to the top group selection URL, the elog steers away from the top group selection page, and automatically brings him to the logbook selection page of the first top group. Is the elog programmed to exhibit this behavior?
What I would prefer is that, after an user logs in, the elog stays on the top group selection page, sine each user has his preferred destination, not always the logbooks in the first top group. Is there any setting I can use in the config file to do this?
(My users need to access different top groups and logbooks on regular basis).
Thank you and regards. |

A common mistake is to think that "Author" is some kind of keyword: it is not.
You can use any defined attribute, if you want to use "Author" this attribute needs to be defined in the "Attributes=" command line.
Attributes = Author, ...
Then you can use the "Preset" command.
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
I've just tested it with 2.9.0-2435 and it works fine.
If the following 4 line minimal logbook configuration does not work for 2.9.1, then please post again:
Attributes = Author
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Cheers

Thanks Andreas,
That cleared up a lot for me. With your information I was able to figure it out. I got rid of the Author and just went with Name, and now it all works good.
Again, thanks for your help,

| Michael Dannmeyer | michael.dannmeyer@solvias.com | Question | Windows | 2.9.0-2396 | Problems with Autorization |
Hello,
we used Admin and write passwords. Now this is no longer supported in ELOG 2.9.0 and I tried to change to File or Kerberos Autentication. But nothing worked. I tried the following lines in elog.cfg
[Serverlogbuch]
Authentication = File
Password file = C:\Program Files\ELOG\logbooks\Serverlogbuch\pwd.txt
Self Authentication = 1
So the self Autentication site opens and I can put in all informations. But if I click on save he tries to save the information in the password file and after a time he stops and Internet Explorer says that the page cannot be reached.
The file is not saved. If I remove the 3 lines the logbook opens without any problems.
I tried also kerberos but it didn't work. But there I think some entries in the krb5.ini are wrong.
Would you please help solving the File password problem?
Best Regards
Michael

| Richard Stamper | richard.stamper@stfc.ac.uk | Question | All | 2.9.2 | Number of conditional attributes |
Is there a limit on the number of conditions that can be simultaneously active in a log? When I activate more than 10 conditions I start to see side effects with other conditions being deactivated. I think this is due to the hard-coded array size of 10 for clist in the match_param function in elogd.c. If so, could this limit be increased?
Are there other limits on the number of conditions, or the length of condition names? If I've understood the code right, the _condition string holds a comma-separated list of the active conditions, so the 256 byte length of this will also put some limit on the number of conditions that can be active. |

Just two hints:
- The file mentioned as "Password file" should be writeable for the "elogd" process. It is needed for both, Kerberos and File authentication. Better not specify the full path, it should assume the file in the logbook directory.
- The command "Self Authentication = 1" does not exist. Maybe you mean "Self register = 1"?
