I can't remember any problem of that type.

Might not be a bad idea. Use the little config file from the distribution, then just add the guest menu lines, and try it. If it works, modify it gradually until it equals to your full config file, to see where the problem is. Stupid quiestion: After you added your guest menu, did you log out to become a "guest"? If you are logged in with your user name (stored in a cookie), you never will see the guest menu. |

To answer your last question - yes, i logged out and the menu line never changed. I even put it into debug mode but the output reflects exactly what I see -- a non-changing menu line. I'll start with the simple config and see what happens.
BTW, WebSVN no longer provides a means of downloading a tar of your code trunk. I had to go to http://midas.psi.ch/elog/download/tar/ in order to get your 2.6.4-1 revision.

Ok, here is what I found. Apparently in the past there was a "Find Menu Commands = " option? Because I had this in my config and elog was not barfing on it being there. So, I changed the word "Find" with "List" and things seems to now work. Stefan, was there an old command called "Find Menu Commands"?

That should be fixed now.

Yes. Indeed this was changes some time ago. Have a look at elog:880. Unfortunately I did not announce this change clearly. |

Re: "Full" view formatting, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Mar 24 10:42:25 2009

| Erik Iverson wrote: | I have a logbook I use to capture machine settings. There are many (~30) different attributes defined. I've defined the "Summary" view via "List display" in such a way that not all the attributes are displayed in the summary list, because there's no practical way to fit the 30 different attributes in 30 rows across the screen, and there's no need to have every attribute shown in the summary view. I would like to define something for the "Full" view that lets me put one (or more, but not all) attributes per line; much like the single-entry view does now, just with multiple entries. So a "Full" listing would look like
ID: 1
Attribute1: Value1
Attribute2: Value2
Attribute3: Value3
Text...
ID: 2
Attribute1: Value1
Attribute2: Value2
Attribute3: Value3
Text...
rather than
ID Attribute1 Attribute2 Attribute3
1 Value1 Value2 Value3
Text...
2 Value1 Value2 Value3
Text...
etc.
Any suggestions?
Thanks as always for a wonderful piece of software! |
This is not implemented, but I will consider it for a future version. |

I have my site running under apache. I don't have a /elog/ directory.
for example most would do http://www.example.com/elog/ to visit elog
but my site loads at http://www.example.com/
The site is private so it's password protected. Everything works fine except
if I click the "Forgot Password" link it does nothing.
but if I go to one of the log books...
http://www.example.com/open/
The forgot password link works.
Is there anyway to fix this? I have nothing else running on the server, it's dedicated to only ELOG.
That's why I don't want to have it running under /elog/ in the url.

Thanks for reporting this bug, I fixed it in revision 2197 which you can load from the SVN server. |

Thanks for the fix. I tried out 2197 and when I click the "Forgot Password" link it causes elog to crash. I've attached my cfg file.
