Protect Selection page=1, posted by Ocane on Wed Jun 20 14:02:45 2012
|
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. |

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. |
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,

I am currently having a similar problem. I am migrating a few separate elogs to one new computer. I have three top groups set up with their own password files. If I log into top group A (TGA), and then try to go to top group B (TGB), I am presented with a "Create new user" screen for my login name for TGA. When I complete that form, I am taken to the user settings for top group A, rather than TGB. I can log out of TGA and then log into TGB fine, but if I try to switch between them without logging out, it freaks out.
There seems to be a problem with the cookies that keep me logged into the different top groups not recognizing that they are different entities. I'm running eLog 2.9.1 rev 436. Is it possible that this has been addressed in 2.9.2?
Thanks,

Certainly 2.9.1 and 2.9.2 should behave similar in that respect. Have you tried to clear all cookies in your browser and try again?

There is currently no way to change this in the config file. I will review the issue when I get some time and maybe come up with a fix. |
Strange Error, Service hangs when record is deleted., posted by Chuck Brost on Wed Jun 11 19:18:06 2014
|
I have 4 services running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 machines, 4 separate logs, only one of them is doing this, but that could be because only one of them is trying to delete records once they are posted, I cannot say.
On that one log, everything runs fine until they try to delete a record, and they are doing it under the admin login, but the service hangs. anyone trying to log in get the 404 error that the page is not available. to clear it I have to open Manage/Services and then Task Manager. First I kill the process for that log book, then I can restart the service and everything is back.. trying to stop the service and then start it, or just restart the service, this does no good, in fact, it will hang at stopping the service.. it is not responding at all. this happened to the same log when I had this on the original Windows Server 2003, so it is not new.. they just don't delete things for a long time, then they seem to do it every week, more than once.. and usually at night or on the weekend. (are they just doing it to mess with me? Maybe, but I do not think so since it would not get me in trouble if I were busy, out of town or just not home and could not get to it until the next business day and they know this..
Any ideas what could cause this?

Number of Thumnails , posted by Diego on Wed Feb 22 14:19:19 2012
|
Hi,
I have Ghostscript 9.05 and ImageMagic 6.7.5 Q16 installed with the last ELOG version in a windows 7 OS. When I try to attach a pdf file and then create thumnails of the file, I am only able to create the first 8 pages instead all document. I have try to change the parameter Thumbnail size but with any sucess. However, If after create the thumnail I modify manually the size, all thumnails are creaed.
Thank you so much!!
Diego
