I added this feature in version 2.2.3, so now you can click on

http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Forum/?mode=threaded&reverse=1&npp=8&Author=$long_name

and see all your entries.
  161   Wed Nov 20 17:55:07 2002 Question tony summerfeltsnowzone25@yahoo.com   upgrading
this is happened before, and it just happened upgrading from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3

the link at the bottom of the page shows a previously installed version.

i don't install to the elog directory, i install to a ram disk and copy over the new executables, the source, readme and help html.

the link showed 2.1.2 until i upgraded to 2.2.2 (i didn't do anything different than the above. now i'm at 2.2.3 and the link is showing 2.2.2...not that it's a big deal, i'm just wondering what i did wrong

Of course you have to stop the old elogd program and start the new one. Have 
you done that?

Well, the other thing is that the previous page is till in the cache of 
Netscape. You have to hit "Reload" in order to properly update the page.

Besides these two things - browser cache and not stopping the old versoin - 
there is no possibility how you could see the old version at the bottom of 
the page, I update this very carefully on each distribution.

Ooops, I just realized that the Windows 2.2.3 distribution contained the old 
(2.2.2) executable for elogd.exe. I apologize for that. I have updated the 
elog223.exe distribution just now, so please download it again in order to 
get the new file.

  189   Tue Jan 7 17:48:25 2003 Idea Stefan Rittstefan.ritt@psi.ch   New directory scheme from version 2.2.5 on
Starting from version 2.2.5 on, an new directory scheme has been 
implemented. The idea is to separate the config file from the theme/icon 
and the logbook directories. This can now be achieved by specifying the 
configuration file via the "-c" flag and the directories with the "-d" flag 
for the logbook root and the "resource directory" with the "-s" flag.

Alternatively, the resouce and logbook directories can be specified in the 
configuration file with

Resource dir = ...
Logbook dir = ...

The old "Data dir" statement is still possible but deprecated. Instead, the 
statement "Subdir = ..." should be used which is taken relative to 
the "Logbook dir". If no "Subdir" is given, the logbook name itself is used 
as the subdir. For this demo logbook I use now:

[global]
...
Resource dir = /usr/local/elogdemo
Logbook dir = /usr/local/elogdemo/logbooks

and no "Data dir" statements any more. The logbooks "Linux", "Database" 
and "Forum" are then located at

/usr/local/elogdemo/logbooks/Linux
/usr/local/elogdemo/logbooks/Database
/usr/local/elogdemo/logbooks/Forum

respectively. The help, theme and icon files are located at their old 
position ("themes" is automatically added to the "resource dir" as it was 
before).
