Elog does not directly support TLS encryption. See here for a wrokaround: elog:68039

Thanks Stefan,
I checked in my ELOG folder and can't find the stunnel.cfg. Is that only available in Linux? Can you please recommend a third party SMTP
server for me use to successfully enable mail notif via Windows OS. Thanks much |

I believe there is a stunnel port for Windows, but that's more for the experienced users. I guess there is no simple solution.

Hi Stefan,
I remeber when I used elog email notif feature in my previous workplace which is running in windows, I just put IP address on SMTP host = X.X.X.X
at the config file and it run without any problem. I'm thinking they are using SMTP server. Can you please recommend any SMTP server and SMTP relayer |

log entries after a certain date not displayed - 3.1.1, posted by Mike Giles on Fri Nov 20 10:28:41 2015

Hi,
I'm having an issue with Elog 3.1.1 on windows 10 not displaying all log entries (after a certain date) in a logbook directory.
The logbook is saved in a Dropbox folder and the entries were created on a windows 8.1 PC with 3.1.1 also. |

Hi Mike,
I don't think that it is a good idea to have two elogd servers accessing the same files: that's what you are doing with
the Dropbox folder, isn't it? ELOG is not made to be used like that.
If you want to share the same entries in different logbooks, then
you should use the "mirror server" functionality in ELOG. Have a look at: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#mirroring
Cheers, |

Besides the commen Andrea made I would like to add that you can convince elog to show all files if you simply restart it, then it will re-scan all files.
But as Andreas said, if two elogd instances write to the same directory, you will get a mess with double IDs of entries.

Thanks very much for your comments. I will take a look at the mirror server functionality.
I have only been running one elogd at a time, restarting elogd (on Windows 10) doesn't seem to pick up the changes made on Windows 8.1 PC
(stopped elogd after changes made and log file updated) |

Ah, I see another problem. The pre 3.1 version had all logbook files in one directory, and the 3.1 puts the files in one subdirectoy per year. On transition
from 3.0 to 3.1, an automatic conversion is made, but only once. If you later add files into the root logbook directory, they will not be seen. So you
have to move them manually into the right subdirectory. |

Hi, I have noticed that if an entry is not submitted it is saved in a sub-folder (name is current ID number) eg http://localhost:8090/mike/23, while
draft it doesn't appear in list page but you can browse directly to it.
When you update an entry on one server instance, if you then browse to the entry ID on the 2nd server instance it is draft. If you edit then |

Drafts are not shown in the list page, but you can browse directly to them, if you know their idea. They are also shown if you hit "new". Then
a box comes up "You have unfished drafts, do you want to edit them?". This is the new draft feature introduced recently and a feature of elog.
But I guess you have a more general problem. You run two elogd severs, and you transfer information between the two servers via Dropbox. Elog |

Paste figure from Clipboard, CKEditor 4.5.1 and Firefox 42, posted by Simon Däster on Thu Nov 5 16:59:34 2015

I tried to paste an Image from Clipboard into the CKEditor 4.5.1. Unfortunatelly, that doesn't work. I used Firefox, version 42. When I looked
in the javascript error console, it reported that "TypeError: b is undefined, ckeditor.js:1139:112". The variable d.config.filebrowserImageUploadUrl
could not be found. |

That seems a CKEditor problem. Can you see if it works on their site (ckeditor.com). The current version is 4.5.4. Maybe they fixed it. You can upgrade
CKEditor yourself in elog by just copying the new verson over the old /elog/scripts/ckeditor directory.

Is there any way to configure elog so that attribute fields can be edited
on more than line like the 'text' field?

resending information confirmation box after refresh interval, posted by Ken Ludington on Mon Nov 16 20:42:15 2015 
|
After submitting a new post, if the page is left completely alone,, it will after a few minutes prompt that the page needs to resend information.
This is the same prompt you'd get if you attempt to refresh a page that had session variables passsed to it. Example is attached.

Start with the demo example configuration, add one line after the other from your config, and figure out which is the offending statement in your config,
then post a minimal configuration here which triggers the problem.

WYSIWYG editor for Elog not working in Debian Jessie, posted by Nicola on Tue Nov 3 18:22:33 2015

I suspect that this might be a Debian packaging issue; however no one replied to my help
request on the Debian forums so I try posting the question also here. I insatlled Elog on my Debian Jessie machine, I can open it with a browser but
when entering a new post just a simple plain text editing box is shown instead of the WYSIWYG editor, and no drag and drop area for attachments is shown. |

Hi Nicola,
this appears to be a particular problem of the specific (outdated) ELOG debian package.
But you could just download
the FCKeditor directly and install it to the proposed location "/usr/share/fckeditor".
Or you download ELOG 3.1.1 and give it a
try to install it with the makefile.
Cheers, Andreas

Hi Andreas, I opted for the first solution since the Debian package, although outdated and broken, has some goodies like a systemd unit for managing
the daemon which is very handy. I downloaded FCKeditor 2.6.11 from SourceForge (after a long search, seems that CKeditor made its parent almost disappear
from the web), unpacked it in the proper folder and not the WYSIWYG editor works. I have just a couple of minor issues: there is no attachment drop area |

Re: WYSIWYG editor for Elog not working in Debian Jessie, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Nov 6 16:06:34 2015

Elog 3.x comes with CKeditor, not FCKeditor any more! I would actually recommend to use the CKeditor from the current Elog 3.1.1 source package if running
together with Elog 3.1.1.

Hi Nicola,
as Stefan pointed out: the debian package that you are using is from an outdated ELOG version and not supported anymore. I
can't help you with that.
Is somebody out there that created a 3.1.x version debian package?
Cheers, Andreas

Hi Andreas, understood. I found a 3.1.0 package for Debian unstable but it won't install on Jessie since it depends on a newer version of openssl,
and it seems to not have a systemd unit (not sure about that, though). I can live with my old version now that the WYSIWYG editor works, and in the meantime
I'll keep my eyes open for a brave soul who would eventually package a newer elog version for Jessie. |
