The setting

Hello,

I am trying to set up my elog to have read-only guest access and require registration/password for users to be able to post to the elog. I've
tried following the instructions here: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/faq.html#6, i.e. putting the following

There are two menus, one for the list display, and one for the individual entry display. To change the first, you need

It would be new to me if elog would support independent [global] sections for each logbook.
I thought you can only have one [global] section. Whatever is defined in that section will be valid for all logbooks.

If you need to have different user files, you'll need to run different elogd services with independent config files (and Password files).

Hi Andreas

I'm following the instruction from https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#groups , please scroll to the Top Groups


Group Linux PCs = Red Hat, Debian, Mandrake
Group Windows PCs = 98, ME, NT, XP, CE
Group CE = 1.0, 2.UL

Top group engineering = Linux

Aparently I've missed that one :-)

In order to test your problem it would be useful to have a minimal config file to reproduce the problem. Yours does not include any actual logbook,
only [global *] sections.

Hi Andreas, 

Thanks for your help. I will try to do that and if I found how to fix this problems, I will post it at here again.

Entry   pdf thumbnails in latest Imagemagick, posted by John Haggerty on Mon Jun 6 05:45:57 2016 
I think with the latest Imagemagick from brew (6.9.4-7) that pdf thumnails no longer get made; the attachment is there but the message "Cannot
create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation" apears instead of the thumbnails.  I couldn't make out from elogd
-v 3 why they failed, but I couldn't make out the exact convert command that was failing.  This is on MacOS 10.11.5 and I think the updated version

    icon7.gif   solved: elogd dies upon search, posted by Christian Ludwig on Fri Jun 3 08:59:49 2016 
I would like to share my findings about the solution of our problem:

One of my collegues used elog in a way it was not intended for, he put an endry with 8021 lines of text.

So I grabbed the corresponding 160517a.log file from logdir, renamed it to a text file and created a new entry with the large textfile as attachment.

Dear all

I installed elog from the current stable repository on Debian 8 (jessie)

The installation went on smoothly, I modified the configuration files of the Apache server as described in the manual to use the elog in parallel
icon5.gif   elog service crashes frequently, posted by Stan Turner on Sun May 22 04:05:12 2016 
We have always had issues with eLOG crashing intermittently...  I upgraded from Server 2003 to Server 2008 about a year ago to try to reduce the
issues...  which really didn't help.

The service now seems to crash every week...  (getting worse)...  Is anyone seeing these issues in Windows servers?  Any suggestions??

We do run ELOG on a Linux server and see about weekly crashes, too. It seems to be connected to the authentication process (Kerberos, File), but we could
not nail it down yet.

But we have set up a supervision process that checks every minute if the "elogd" process is still running. If not, it simply restarts
icon3.gif   support "authentication = webserver, kerberos", posted by Devin Bougie on Wed May 18 16:19:07 2016 
The elog client binary does not work with webserver authentication.  One fix would be to support both webserver and kerberos authentication (authentication
= webserver, kerberos), similar to how you currently support 
"authentication = kerberos, file".
