This is due to a change we had to do in the redirection of the pages. If you 
submit a page, the result is a redirection using the HTTP 
statement "Location: ..." inside the header. While this was a relative link 
in the previous versions, we changed this into an absolute link, which then 
agrees with the standard. But since elgod does not know if it runs 
under "http:" or "https:", you have now to add the line

URL = https://your.server:port

into elogd.cfg. I will add this note into the documentation.

Operator error. Figures!

Elog has worked fine for a log time then I upgraded and added stunnel at the
same time. A case of not seeing the forest for the trees.

Thanks for the help.

Ive just installed the RPM of Elog 2.3.2 and ive found a bug relating to 
port bindings, basically im running elog bound to port 81 and when i 
install the new RPM it refuses to bind to this port, i tried port 8080 and 
that worked fine

Any ideas ?

This is a bug I discovered myself just today, so we are working on it. I 
expect this to be fixed by tomorrow or somewhen during this weekend.

The bug has been fixed in V 2.3.3 which has been released today.

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 ...

If you installed from the RPM, elogd runs under the user "elog". If you have 
installed a previous version under a different user, it might be that elogd 
does not have read or write access to it. A 

"chown -R elog.elog /usr/local/elogdata"

might help.

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?
