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. |

I usually keep http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html up-to-date, but I agree that it's a bit hard to find the additions there, that's why there is the change log 
The ELCode is described on a separate page, which can also be accessed by clicking on the ELCode link below the text box of the logbook entry page. |

 | Chris Warner | christopher_warner@dcd.uscourts.gov | Bug report | Linux | 2.6 | Buffer Overflow? |
Users can access root level directories by using a modified URL. I saw on some security web sites that this was a problem in previous versions. Was it not fixed in 2.6?
To recreate enter http://yourhost.yourdomain.com/../../../../etc/passwd
view your password file in the browser.
If this was previously reported, is there a fix?

Thanks for telling me, I didn't know. I was able to reproduce your problem under certain conditions, and I just released version 2.6.1 to fix it. However it has nothing to do with an old buffer overflow (see elog:941).
I would strongly advise everybody to upgrade as soon as possible. |
