The help text on the website says the following:

"The command Select can be used to select multiple messages for deletion of
moving to other logbooks."

This is not clear but was the intent to indicate that SELECT can be used to
either select multiple log entries for deletion OR for moving to another
logbook?  If the latter, then this does not work if one adds the MOVE TO
menu item to the list.  If the former then the helptext is a little misleading.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if this is a configuration problem or a bug, but running
v2.5.4subver1.413, elogd runs as user ROOT (UID0) even though the following
is in the elogd.cfd file:

Usr = nobody
Grp = essadm

All other directives added to the cfg file work, so I know eLog is reading
the cfg file.  

The elogd binary *is not* setuid 0.

Thanks

I'm trying to run elog 2.6.0-beta4 under Apache 2.0.  I follow the directions, and everything works fine, so my
elog runs as

http://grattalab3.stanford.edu/elog/

running under port 8082, with the following lines in my httpd.conf file

 Redirect permanent /elog http://grattalab3.stanford.edu/elog
 ProxyPass /elog/ http://grattalab3.stanford.edu:8082/

This machine has an alias, which is http://exo-elog.stanford.edu.  My question is, how can I run elog so that
when someone types in this name, it brings up my elog? I know that I can make a VirtualHost entry and put a
redirect at the document root of that virtual host, but that seems clumsy.  Can I just modify ProxyPass or add a
Redirect statement somehow?

Thanks!

A problem recently developed for our elog...after running without much problem the elog daemon was restarted on an ubuntu server running apache2. Now the server gives 502 Proxy Error messages:

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /elog.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

I did a force-reload of apache after making sure the modules are enabled. I also restarted elogd but to no avail. One symptom seems to be that the GET request is empty...that is before it was:

"GET /elog/sample_elog/etcetera HTTP/1.1"

but now it is just

"GET /elog HTTP/1.1"

Just started out of the blue...

Any ideas?

Having made one entry in the thread about message ID, I could neither edit the entry or add an additional reply
without getting "Proxy Error" messages.  I've had this trouble on this forum before, a long time ago.  Perhaps
it is connected with the html coding?

 Hi,

I have several top groups and each has several logbooks.

If I use the global option Protect Selection page=1 and Show top groups = 1, after an user logs in to the top group selection URL, the elog steers away from the top group selection page, and automatically brings him to the logbook selection page of the first top group. Is the elog programmed to exhibit this behavior?

What I would prefer is that, after an user logs in, the elog stays on the top group selection page, sine each user has his preferred destination, not always the logbooks in the first top group. Is there any setting I can use in the config file to do this? 

(My users need to access different top groups and logbooks on regular basis).

Thank you and regards.
