I tried with your config file, and it works fine (see attached screendump). So I have no clue right now why it is not working in your case.

Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere and I'm missing it. I want to stop users from accessing my elog by loading the URL: http://mycomputerURL:8080 and only make it accessible through http://mycomputerURL/elog. The end goal would be to use Apache to control access. I followed the instructions under "Running elogd under Apache" in the admin guide, but what that did was simply to redirect browsers trying to load ttp://mycomputerURL/elog to http://mycomputerURL:8080.


If you want to have user-level access control, you need to do that with the config option
Password file = ...

Then, if you have the
URL = http://mycomputerURL/elog

statement in your config file, you get redirected from elogd after each login automatically to that URL. If you physically want to block the 8080 port, you have to do that on the operating system level, like with iptables or ipchains.

Probably a problem with your Windows Firewall. You have to convice your OS to let you in.

Hi, I tried to set up an ELOG from a windows machine. Its functionalities work without any problem, but I cannot access at all this ELOG from any other machine. I tried to search in this forum, but with no avail.

Could someone perhaps tell me know how to fix this problem? Or did I miss something obvious in the configuration of the ELOG?

Cheers,

Duarte

Do you know which settings in the firewall panel I should change (windows 10 machine)? I went over all the access rules and could not find anything corresponding to the ELOG.

I'm not a Windows user so I don't know details. But I believe you have to make an exception in the firwall for the elogd.exe executable. You can certainly Google how to do that for any executable.

A quick follow-up concerning the secondary matter I mentioned in my last post, namely the issues I had with the deprecated "sudo launchctl load ..." and "sudo launchctl unload ..." subcommands currently provided in the ELOG installation instructions for MacOS.  I found a solution to this -- will post it in a separate thread.

The strangely auto-incrementing attachment counts in the Summary view are still present, and I'm curious if anyone else has experienced those.  Also, I could not find a way to customize the Summary view such that the final (rightmost) column with the attachment counts can be suppressed.  That would at least put the problem out of sight until a developer can intervene and fix the bug.

On a new MacBook Pro (Silicon M3), I installed version 3.1.5 build 23df00d9.  The application appears to work normally, except that, after a short while, the indicated attachment count (paperclips in the attachment column of the Summary view) starts to increment fairly rapidly with each time that I visit the page.  Attachment counts appear even for records that don't have any attachments.  When I access records individually, either those with or without real attachments, everything looks OK.  Any insights as to what might be causing this, and how to correct?

Installation went smoothly using the (now longstanding) MacOS installation instructions, with one small exception: When doing the "sudo launchctl load ..." step, there is occasionally an I/O error of some kind.  (Sorry, I don't have an exact transcript of the error at the moment, but it appears to refer to line 5 of a script.)

Many thanks,

Andreas W.

I'm traveling right now and will only next week be able to look into that, so please be patient for a few more days.

The problem with the attachment paperclips has been fixed in the current version.
