icon5.gif   using = or <> or AND as part of a filter ??, posted by eric wooten on Sat Jul 26 20:11:01 2003 
Is this possible?  If so, could you provide an example:

I'm trying to find a way that when you do a search, that you can filter 
entries using ( = , <>, AND) on one or more attributes.
ex:  Find all workstations for this subnet, but exclude a particular one.
Thats the basic idea.

Can it be done? If so, how?

Thanks,
Eric
icon1.gif   Account expiration, posted by eric wooten on Wed Jul 30 08:13:56 2003 
I know there's an item on the wishlist for password expiration, so how 
about account expiration..?? (after so many days of inactivity).

One complaint that comes from management is that when a user leaves the 
agency, the elog account seems to never get deleted.  There way of asking 
me, why I never keep up with the user account deletions.  Ha Ha, like I 
have time to constantly compare the user list from elog to the user list of 
other systems.

Another plea on my part, for Elog to allow for authentication via external 
database - such as LDAP, so we wouldn't have to maintain another user 
database.

Thanks,
Eric
icon5.gif   Input text gets lost, posted by egli on Sat Nov 23 09:20:57 2002 
Typing in a text for a new entry results in an error message, whenever
one forgets to fill in mandatory attributes (as it should happen !). However
after using the back button in this case (Using netscape 4.79) I made the
experience, that the text typed in gets lost. Other browsers like Mozilla
or IE do not have this problem. Any idea how this problem can be
avoided for netscape as well ?

It did, a lot, guess I missed that one in the changelog.

Had some trouble with subdir too:
changed it to its full path
restarted elogd
worked

As a test I changed subdir to it's relative path
restarted
It kept working

mmmm, I wonder where that twighlight tune comes from ...

After upgrading from 2.3.1 to 2.3.3, elog is not able to load any resources
as stylesheets, images or passwordfiles.

Cannot open file /usr/local/elogdata/logbooks/djeks/password!

oops?
icon5.gif   redirect errors via apache2, posted by djek on Mon Jan 23 10:30:51 2006 
Since elog 2.6.0 we cannot redirect our elog via apache2.

in apache2.conf we have (had for a long time):
Redirect permanent /elog http://elog.oursite.com/elog/
ProxyPass /elog/ http://elog.oursite.com:8080/

When visiting the url, this results in:
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /elog/myelog/.

After testing we found that ELOG V2.6.0-beta2 works just fine.
2.6.0 stable crashes after visiting a redirected url.

Running on debian sarge

No it doesn't work with 2.6.1. I hoped it would be fixed, but I should have reported it sooner.
I compiled 2.6.1 myself.
The original version was a debian package, after that, we compile elog ourselves and copy elogd manually over the old
version. Just to stay up-to-date.

> Have you checked that your "URL = xxx" statement in the config file is correct? I see above "myelog", while the
proxy passes requests to "elog".

I changed our urls, just to be safe.
myelog is a 'sublogbook', like forum here. http://elog.oursite.com/elog/myelog

We are running V2.6.0-beta2 and it runs fine, without any alterations to our config files.
All previous versions runned fine too.

update:
After further testing on a different server, it seems to be an issue with the proxy and the proxy_http modules in sarge.
after loading and unloading  proxy_http this is the error:
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
