I am having a problem with the navigation buttons when clicking previous or next button. It does not do anything. Has anyone had this same problem? I am also using IE 10. But it seems also having a same problem on Firefox.

Have you tried on this forum? 

  I have tried this forum, it worked fine. So, it should not be a browser. The only different I have logbook that I have been working on ELOG v2.6.5 and I have installed a new version v2.9.2. I just wonder any different data format (2.6.5 vs. 2.9.2) could have caused a problem.

The data format has nothing to do with the functionality of browsing buttons. Except if you have an empty logbook, or a logbook with just one entry, then of course going forwared and backward will not make any sense.

Hi,

I am setting up an elog to organize my lab activities. I installed elog 2.8.0 on the latest CentOS 5.5, 32 bit. I got into trouble setting up the automated email notification.

According to the elog manual, I setup the smtp setting in the elogd.cfg as follows:

SMTP host = smtp.gmail.com
SMTP username = jianglai.liu
 

I then used "elogd -t" to encode the password into the configuration file.

But when I submit an entry, I always received: "Error sending Email via "smtp.gmail.com": 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. y17sm867489wfd.15"

If I switched to use my university email servers, similar things happened.

SMTP host = smtp.sjtu.edu.cn
SMTP username = jianglai.liu

I got "Error sending Email via "smtp.sjtu.edu.cn": 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: another step is needed in authentication"

I also switched to use one of my old work server

SMTP host = smtp-server.its.caltech.edu
SMTP username = jliu

and ended up with the same error message.

I did a google search on this without much progress. I would appreciate it very much if someone could shed light on how do I fix this.

Thanks much!

elog only supports basic authentication, not TLS or SSL. These days more and more SMTP servers require this however. I will put this on my to-do list. In meantime you can maybe configure your CentOS machine acting as an SMTP server, and then not using TLS or SSL there. That's what most people do.

 Hi, has this problem been fixed? (i.e does ELOG now support TLS or SSL?) Thanks, Oliver

Didn't have time yet for this.

New entries since: Tue Oct 22 10:56:27 2013

 

this occurs with different browsers and PC's

For other users it works as described in this forum post ...

"When you are active browsing entries, your activity is recorded (only the time) in the password file. Now when you are inactive for more than one hour, you are considered "logged out", and your last activity is taken as a filter for new entries. That means you see new entries since your last activity in the logbook. " https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1612

 

Regards

Mark.

Sure it will be stuck on a date/time, until you show "inactivity". So wait for >1h, and then check again. You will see the time updated.

When compiling elog on OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), I get the error below.

Elog will compile without error if I add -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 to CFLAGS in Makefile, but I'm not sure whether this is a good idea.

All over sudden gcc comes with its own version of "strlcpy", which I had defined "manually" since many years inside ELOG. Using -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=0 will not harm, so you can use it. The "real" solution is to take our ELOG's strlcpy/strlcat, which I did on the current SVN version.

Best regards,

 Hi there :)

I'm having a problem with the e-mail notification on my installation of elog. I'm testing the attachment upload with images, and it seems to work seamlessly. However upon posting, the e-mail notification sends a null attachment, instead of the image I would expect.

Is there an error log I can check for this? I started the elog process without the daemon option, but I can't see any error coming up.

Cheers,
 

This problem has been fixed in the current version. Please get it from bitbucket.org.

Ok, I tried updating my SVN working copy, but I didn't get any updates past elog rev. 2494, mxml rev. 74.  I undid my changes to Makefile, tried to compile, but got the same errors.  

I then pulled down elog and mxml with git, and these are working for me with no errors.  Thanks!

SVN is obsolete and will NOT be maintained any more, since we completely switched to GIT. Actually I will disable the service soon.

One of my users reported that he received this error when attempted to submit an editing entry. Basically he is only one to edit this entry. When go ahead to press the button, the entry is updated successfully. What cause and how to prevent this error not to populate? Thanks

Please read the documentation in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html und the option "Use Lock". If you don't need locking, just turn it off.

Tom C wrote:

My elog is named "Whatever Elog" so the URL generated is /Whatever+Elog . This works fine but when in the interface certain buttons generate this URL : /Whatever%20Elog  ...this URL fails.  It seems that elog does not recognize these ( + and %20 ) as the same which I believe they should be as part of HTTP request.

Can you be a bit more specific which buttons you mean? The demo logbook https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/ has also a space and I cannot see any problem there.
