  Draft   Fri Jan 20 14:08:25 2023 Question Tamas Galhe iQuestionLinux3.1.3Re: Too many redirects when running behind load balancer?

The issue is still present and now it's quite urgent to move this last service into the Swarm. Does anyone maybe have an idea what's wrong? To sum up: if there is a non-empty password file, the login page chokes in an infinite loop of redirects. I am using the same HAProxy load balancer configuration as for all the other services (running Apache, NGINX, GitLab, XWiki, etc.):

backend be_elog.km3net.de
    mode http

    option forwardfor except 127.0.0.1
    http-request add-header X-Forwarded-Proto https if { ssl_fc }

    server-template km3net-elog- 1 km3net-elog_elog:8080 check resolvers docker init-addr libc,none

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.

Yes I see the redirects. You say with the example logbook it works, right? Is it the password protection which triggers the problem or anything else? Does it work if you take out the password protection? The key is to identify which setting in your config file triggers the problem, so you can bracket the problem down between the example logbook and your logbook definition.

I have requested an undeletion of the article. The article was deleted  "PROD", which means that someone tagged it. And if noone removes the tag, it could be deleted.

I could revive the article. So in the future, One should have an eye on it and maybe update the current version of the software.

If there iy an paper on the elog, maybe it could be cited for more creditability.

I am not an Wikipedia expert, can anyone suggest on how to push for the article to be restored? Or do we just write it again, until people stop deleting it?

Hello,

I noticed the wikipedia article of the ELOG got deleted in November 2021.
With the reason: "Poorly sourced article, and I was not able to find good sources myself."

I could access the old article through web.archive.org, but for the project it would be good, if the article got revived.

Hi,

I currently testing last ELOG version from git in a docker with LDAP activated (https://hub.docker.com/r/usinagaz/elog-ldap). The goal is to use it on Synology NAS server, associated with local LDAP server.

 

The reverse proxy is done by embedded DSM nginx, according to FDQN associated to ELOG service (elog.corp.com). In Docker, URL is set to elog.corp.com.

All is good, but when I post any enclosure in any elog post, the elogd exits and docker is automatically restarted. The browser shows an error 405 generated by nginx server.

 

Do you have any idea of the cause of this problem  ?

 

Thanks for help.

Laurent

Yep. You're right. Thanks!

Actually the

style="white-space: normal"

makes the difference, the <div> is not necessary at all!

But I'm not sure that "white-space: normal" is what we want. All manual line breaks in an entry are collapsed and you get just one text block without any new line. See here

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/white-space

I guess we want "white-space: pre-wrap" which keeps the old line breaks.

You can try that out by changing elog.css:

--- a/themes/default/elog.css
+++ b/themes/default/elog.css
@@ -475,6 +475,7 @@ td {

 .messagepre {
   font-family:'lucida console',courier,monospace;
+  white-space:pre-wrap;
 }

and see the effect. If you like it, just keep it. No need to recompile elogd.cxx.
