Shouldn't I get a screen to login/register?

Guest menu commands = List, Find, Login, Help


I might be wrong, but since you have defined "Guest menu commands", you should indeed be able to read the logbooks without logging on, only write access should be prevented. Do you get the login window when you explicitly click onto the "Login" link?

Also, I noticed that your user lists are space-separated, although as far as I know they should be comma-separated.
I hope this helps!

Thanks. That was exactly what Stefan pointed me to (in private EMail which I resorted to in my desperation Smile.
This config (also thanks to Stefan) now works.
[global]
Port=8880
SSL=1
Self register = 1
Password file = passwd

[Demo]
Attributes = Author, Status
[Linux]
Attributes = Author, Status
[Windows]
Attributes = Author, Status


I only need to know how I get an admin passwd and user into the passwd file.
elogd -a password -l logbook does not have the desired effect. It spoils the cfg-file
again with Admin Password commands.

I told you twice (once in this thread) that you should not mix "password file" with "admin password". These are two different authentication schemes and may not be combined. What you need is only "admin user = <name>" in your config file as written in the documentation.

You do this the same way as a regular user: use the self registration feature to create a user, and then declare this user to be the admin in your config file.

No, the message ID gets assigned only when you submit the entry.

Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible to know the message_id of when creating a new entry in elog ?

I would like to do something like this Preset text = $message_id

Thx;

Hi Stefan,

here is a draft of how you could describe the webserver authentication in your docs.

From Version 2.1.2 on you have the option "ROptions = ..." for that.

In version 3.1.2-416db9f I implemented a "Restore" button, which should fix the second drawback. If you press it, you should be able to go back to where you started when editing an entry.

I read somewhere that javascript is supported with elog. For legal reasons, I have to post a legal banner before the login prompt. Can you tell me how to do this? I'm not a programmer, but I guess I could use the javascript alert command to do this. What file would I need to change?


Unfortunately it was not possible to do that for the login page, so I had to add a new option Bottom text login which I implemented just now. You can now indeed use the alert command to do what you want, like

in elog.cfg:
Bottom text login = alert.html

and in alert.html:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
  alert("Hello world");
//-->
</script>

or whatever legal statement you have to make.

The new version can be downloaded as elog261-5.exe from the home page.
