I wonder if there is any way to use the javascript 'window.status' method to accomplish this. It would be a nice addition when there are many logbooks.

I added a tooltip to the logbook showing the comment field. The status bar is a bit difficult since it requires Javascript and is not supported by all browsers. But I hope the tooltip is good enough. The modification is in CVS, you can try it at the forum.

icon3.gif   Email notifications not working properly, posted by Stefan Ritt on Thu Mar 26 17:30:23 2009 

 I just found out that email notifications only worked for the first 50 users of this forum. So if you registered only recently, you might not have received any notification. This was a bug inside elogd which I hope to have fixed now (this entry notification will show...). If you get the first notification and do not want this, log in to the ELOG Forum, click on "Config" and remove the checkmarks from the logbooks you do not want to get notifications.

icon5.gif   Configuration problems, posted by Erich Beyrent on Mon Feb 14 17:10:00 2005 
I am trying to run eLog under Apache 2 on my FreeBSD 5.3 server.  I started
the daemon with "elogd -n <my hostname> -p 8080" and when I connect to my
server on that port, I get a 500 server configuration error.  The Apache log
contains this:

malformed header from script. Bad header=Please specify hostname.: elog

I am running elogd 2.5.7-1 built Feb 14 2005, 09:55:19 revision 1.558

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

- make sure your proxy definition in httpd.conf is correct and it uses port 8080
- start elogd with the "-v" flag to see the communication between Apache and elogd
- maybe you might need an "URL = http://<my hostname>/<elog dir>/" in the config
file

No luck.  I have the proxy definition in my httpd.conf file.  I have the URL parameter
in my elogd.cfg file.

Here is the command line I am using to start the daemon:

elogd -v -D -n <myhost> -p 8080 -l <myhost>/cgi-bin/elog/logbooks -c
/usr/local/server/apache/cgi-bin/elog/elogd.cfg

With the -v argument, here are the messages I get in /var/log/messages:

I am still getting the exact same error in my Apache log.

Any more ideas?

Can you show me the proxy definition? I hope you don't treat elogd as a CGI script...
