Hi Dimitrios,
I know where your problem is and you could actually help me in solving it. The reason of the problem is the redirection. After you login, you get redirected (via the HTTP "Location:" statement) to the start page. In an very old version of ELOG, I had relative redirection. So from https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/DAQ/?cmd=Login I did a redirect to "." and voila I the browser asked for https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/DAQ/.
|
But my problem begins before I log in. Trying to load https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/DAQ/?cmd=Login will get me in the infinite redirection directly. Besides, I do have URL = https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/ in my configuration file, so the redirection should work in my case (since I'm trying to access it through cmsdaq) and fail in every other case. Is that right or is there something I'm missing?
Cheers,
Dimitris |

Hi,
The problem was coming from the fact that elog did not supports request coming from multiple hops through proxies. You got the ful string of them in the X-Forwarded-host header. Hence, you have to pick only the first one, terminated by a ','.
Here's the patch:

+++ elogd.c 2006-02-14 15:49:42.000000000 +0100
@@ -20985,6 +20985,8 @@

I tried to reproduce your problem, but could not. In my windows installation it looks fine. You only see the
(save and cancel) buttons only if you go to "Change [global]", otherwise you see the "Change [global]", "Delete
this logbook" etc. buttons. Have you tried with the default elogd.cfg which comes from the distribution? |

Yes, I tried that. Maybe I'll have some other try on other PCs and investigate further, I'll surely let you know. Thanks
for the prompt response and compliments for your very good work! ELog is really a great piece of software. |

Here I am again... I built and installed v2.6.1 also on a different system, this time on linux; i tried both with the
existing cfg file and with the new cfg.
Choosing "configuration", I still only see the current logbook configuration file section with "Save" and "cancel"
buttons, no access to global config whatsoever; the same as I saw on windows version. I tried version 2.6.1-1622.

I tried again, using the configuration file from the distribution (elog:1627/1). Hitting "config", I see the picture
attached (elog:1627/2). So it's a mystery why it is different in your case... |

Indeed... I peeked into the code, and I got the feeling it could be a matter of incorrect user setup (though I have no
users/authorizations defined at all) or maybe browser cookies. A thin trail, but I'll try some debug directly on the
code and, should I come up with something, I'll surely notice you.
Thanks for your support! |
