We have since discovered that the security team is scanning the box in question once a week when the service crashes, with nexpose.

So if you see something similar then you might want to explore that.

Probably some very strange URL form nexpose to trigger a potential buffer overflow. If I get the precise URL which crashes elogd, I can reproduce and
fix it.

Otherwise my usual advice: Run elogd behind an Apache proxy and do the authentication there. This way nexpose does not get to elogd, it will

Well, it DOES work.... but only if you use the "Show Attributes Edit" directive.  "Show Attributes" is only for the single entry
pages, whereas "Show Attributes Edit" is for the "entry pages."

Closed.  This "problem" was due to the same lack of document eyesight as https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/69889.   Sorry for
all the noise.  New eyeglasses are forthcoming...

I am not sure if either "Sort Attributes" or the Quick Filter are the main issue, though they could be.  I have implemented a work-around
for now, but it really would be nice if this worked as expected.  Or perhaps someone can provide an example of a logbook with working "collapse"
functionality.  Thank you for this nifty program; everything else aside, this tool helps keep my work in order.

The ETH physics department is running an ELOG behind an Apache reverse proxy:

ProxyPass / http://localhost:$port/ retry=0

You can have authentication via the Webserver or the ELOG internal one, but this is on a global level for all logbooks. You cannot mix this between logbooks.
For that, you would have to run two instances of ELOG at two different ports.
