I upgraded to V2.9.2, so please try again.

Re: Protect Selection page=1

Ocane wrote:

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 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.

I need to access 2 different elogd.cfg files.

[...] However, I was soon asked questions by Andreas as to how I found this running, as he had encountered problems with an earlier version. To be honest, that stopped me experimenting too far with this at that point, as well as a coincidental upgrading of my hardware. [...]

Just for completeness: I was running two elogd servers (2.9.0) on one Linux host in order to provide an english and a german web interface to the same logbooks, synchronised by the mirror server mechanism.

That didn't work out well, the elogd crashed infrequently. But of course mirror servers are not intended to run on the same host. Eventually I've just dropped the english server.

I wrote to scripts to backup the logbook files:

elog_backup_daily creates a tar file of all new entries of the last 25 hours and keeps these backups for 90 days
elog_backup_hourly creates a tar file of the entries of the last 65 minutes and keeks these backups for one week
exclude-logbooks specifies which files not to backup

This allows you at least to recover deleted entries by hand as an administrator.

Attachment 1: elog_backup_daily

#!/bin/sh
# source file directory
srcd=/usr/local/elog/

# backup all files newer than 25 hours
date=$(date -d "-25hours" "+%Y%m%d %H:%M")
# backup file directory
tard=/logbooks_backup
# backup tar file name
tarf=$tard/$(date +%Y%m%d_%a.tar)
# do not backup files that match patterns in this file
excf=/usr/local/elog/utilities/exclude-logbooks
# create backup
cd $srcd
tar --ignore-case -X $excf --newer "$date" -cf $tarf . logbooks/*

# copy passwd.txt
if [ "$(date +%u)" -eq 1 ]
then
	passwd=$tard/passwd_$(date +%Y%m%d_%a.txt)
	cp $srcd/passwd.txt $passwd
	gzip -9 $passwd
fi
# delete all backups older than 90 days
find $tard -mtime +90 -name "*_???.tar"           -exec rm -f {} +
find $tard -mtime +90 -name "passwd_*_???.txt.gz" -exec rm -f {} +
