Where I work we started to use Elog for our shift carry over log, everyone seems to likes it.
I do have one problem for some reason we have to login twice in order to submit a new entree in
the log. I do have a guest account setup so when we click logon the logon page pops up and you
type in username and password and enter. Then main page pops up and you are still in the guest mode.
Click on logon again and enter everything again and this you get in the edit mode.
I hope you can me with this.


Can you send me your elogd.cfg?

I tried with your config file and it worked fine. So can you tell me:

  • At what URL do you access your logbook? Do you just type http://localhost:8080 or anything else
  • Do you use any proxy or stunnel?
  • What is the URL in your browser showing on the first and second login?

You might want to consider to put a
URL = http://<your host>:8080/
into your config file.

Thanks
Your questions that you ask me help me out.
What I was doing was typing in the URL was http://pdls:8080 and it took me the pass down log. When I went to login into Elog took me back to the log but the URL read http://pdls.pwfl.com:8080 so when I log in the second time I was to be the edit mode. So I guess I should have typing in the URL http://pdls.pwfl.com:8080.

Thanks again for your help

I hope you can help me Stefan.
The problem that I am having is when someone request a account on elog I received e-mail message to activate there account. I click on the link from my e-mail to activate the account it takes me to the logon page. I log on and then I get a massage that the web does not exist.
What I found out was the elog Damon stops, and I have to restart it and everything work fine.
Here is a copy of me Elog config.

Also can you tell me how you set up the Subtext and the Show new entry buttons on the main page of the elog.

Thank for your help

I tried with the current version and could not reproduce your problem. Can you try to increase the login expiration like Login expiration = 240 for ten days. If you then click to activate an account and you have been logged in less than ten days ago, you will not be asked to logon. Does the problem then still occur?

No the problem does not occur when I am still log on.

Is it possible to send an email to Elog and record an entry automatically?We have situations where endusers have very narrow bandwidth email access. But no broadband to update E-log. Is there some mechanism so that they can send a email and it update Elog automatically?Thanks in advance.
