hi folks


thankyou for your time
have read the user docs
and admin docs
and faqs
i used the latest windows installer to have the script runner as a server on windows

BTW i have been looking for over 3 years for this sort of thing - so i had given up for the i would say, i have looked at over 120 scripts and progs for possibilites - could this really be it?


i have managed to make another logfile using the config example
from stev ritt accelerator logbook
with a slight variation (changed file attached)as i could not make the original work for me as i do not know what i am doing.

i placed this in the demo config, underneath the code that was already there ie

Theme = default
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Category = General, Hardware, Software, Network, Other
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type


I REPLACED BELOW CODE

; use user level password access
Password file = passwd
Login expiration = 1000
Admin user = ritt
Self register = 1


WITH THIS CODE
; use user level password access
Password file = XXXXXX
Login expiration = 1000
Admin user = XXXXXX
Self register = 1
==============================================
MY QUESTION:

HOW do i change the automated address http://localhost:8080/ to an address where users can access?
or do i tell them the address is http://localhost:8080/ - somehow i think that is not going to work for them even though it does for me.

my address is
http://organicparents.org
Attachment 1: elogdPUBLIC.cfg
[Accelerator]
Comment = Accelerator Logbook

; use user level password access
Password file = XXXXX
Login expiration = 1000
Admin user = XXXXX
Self register = 1

; look and feel
Guest menu commands = Back, Find, Login, Help
Guest find menu commands = Find, Login, Help
Date format = %B %d, %Y

; attributes

Options Category = Routine entry, Shift summary, Problem, Fix, Question, Info, Other
Extendable attributes = Category
Required Attributes = Category, Subject
Thread display = $Subject, entered by $author on $Entry date
Quick filter = Date, Category

; title as shown in the browser
Page Title = Accelerator Logbook - $subject

; preset author and email
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset Author Email = $user_email

; these attributes cannot be changed
Locked Attributes = Author, Author Email

; only author can change its own entry
Restrict edit = 1

Edit elogd.cfg with notepad.exe directly.

If you run elog on the machine which has the internet address organicparents.org, then you will be able to access elog under http://organicparents.org:8080, given that your firewall allows this access from outside.

Yes.

eg online page?

hi again stefan
i am getting the idea that i am supposted to upload elog to my website ? is this correct?

ie e should make a directory for ELOG and load files - what files?

or all the files that came from the downloaded ELOG PROGRAM that i placed in my c-d rive ?
