icon5.gif   How to edit Elog landing pages., posted by John on Thu Mar 14 06:38:12 2019 

Hi and thanx for such a wonderful program! I was wondering how I might edit, change or add to the landing pages. In other words the first pages that show up (or any for that matter) when you login to a book. I can view the code ok in my browser using that function, but when I search for the actual page and it's locale, I cannot find it. Is it created on the fly by the server? If so, how can I change them.. as I want to add for instance javascripts to manipulate the pages and data more, without actually loosing the main essence of the program (log books). Thanx

icon5.gif   Reverse proxy setting of Elog for Apache httpd 2.4 so that changing password windows works ?, posted by Takashi Ichihara on Tue Mar 19 06:13:03 2019 

In CentOS 7.6 + Apache httpd-2.4.6 + ELOG V3.1.4 environment with Reverse Proxy setting of

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
 :
ProxyRequests Off
RedirectMatch ^/elog$ /elog/
<Location /elog/>
ProxyPass                      http://mmm.riken.jp:3333/ 
ProxyPassReverse         http://mmm.riken.jp:3333/
ProxyPassReverseCookiePath   /      /elog/
</Location>
:
It almost works fine.  But Changing password has problem. 

When clicking the "Forget password?" link in login window and displaying "Entering your user name or email address"
and entering it, an email is sent to the user:

----
This is an automatically generated account recovery email for host mmmm.riken.jp.
Please click on following link to recover your account:

http://mmm.riken.jp/elog/?redir=%3Fcmd%3DChange+password%26oldpwd%3DIHCPHXNTMJGEYDKY&uname=test&upassword=IHCPHXNTMJGEYDKY

ELOG Version 3.1.4
---

Clicking the URL above in the Firefox Browser results invalid URL: 

http://mmm.riken.jp/?cmd=Change%20password&oldpwd=IHCPHXNTMJGEYDKY

These parameters does not pass to the elog by the Reverse Proxy setting above.

 While accessing the URL of (native elog port: 3333)

http://mmm.riken.jp:3333/?cmd=Change%20password&oldpwd=IHCPHXNTMJGEYDKY

displays the normal page for Changing password windows for the user.

Is there any suggestions for the Reverse Proxy setting in Apache httpd 2.4 
so that the changing password windows works fine ?

Thank you for any suggestions.

icon5.gif   HTML editor not working after updating to V3.1.4, posted by Ross Gibson on Tue Mar 19 23:24:48 2019 
Since updating to v3.1.4 the HTML editor has stopped working. If I switch to HTML encoding, the editor appears with a blank field, cannot select or type in field and none of the buttons work.
I have tried reverting to earlier versions, but the issue persists. Any suggestions to rectify?
icon5.gif   elog.css and lock.png fail to load with top groups, posted by Ben Loer on Thu Mar 21 16:14:00 2019 elog1.png

As the title says, we have our elog running behind an Apache proxy that is also providing authentication. We also have top groups enabled.  The first time a user views a top group page with a fresh browser cache, the index is delivered, but requests for elog.css and lock.png are returned with http 302 with location set to the elog root.  (I.e., if the server is proxied under server.example.com/logs,  the first request for server.example.com/logs/TopGroup1/elog.css returns a 302 with location set to server.example.com/logs// ). 

Any subsequent visits return the files fine. The attached screenshot shows the network requests in chrome. 

Is this a proxy configuration issue, something we've set wrong in elog, ??

 

icon5.gif   Interfaced with SSO, posted by Patricia Mendez Lorenzo on Fri Mar 22 09:53:39 2019 

Dear Supporters,

 

I am evaluating the elog software as lobgook for high energy pgysics and I was just wondering the interface with SSO from the login point of view. Once euthenticated with SSO, can this authentication be also recognized by elog?

 

Thank you so much

Best Regards,

PAtricia

icon5.gif   elog client through proxy, posted by gibelin julien on Mon Mar 25 12:31:34 2019 

Dear users,

we started an elog serveur (using ssl) and open to the world which is working fine.

However I am trying to access it via the command line client, from a computer that uses a proxy to connect to internet.

The environnment variable are set :

declare -x ftp_proxy="ftp://myproxy:3128/"
declare -x http_proxy="http://myproxy:3128/"
declare -x https_proxy="https://myproxy:3128/"
declare -x socks_proxy="socks://myproxy:3128/"

 

but when I try to connect

elog  -h myelog -p 443 -l lognote -s 1 -u username passwd  -w last

I have the following message :

Cannot connect to host myelog, port 44

How should I proceed ?

Best regards

JG

icon5.gif   Hiding Logbook tabs, posted by Alan Grant on Thu Mar 28 21:55:14 2019 

I know you can restrict access to logbooks on per user basis but can anyone tell me if it is possible to HIDE certain logbook tabs/groups on per user basis (ie, so they would just see logbooks they are authorized to see)?

icon5.gif   Pinned entry, posted by Giuseppe Cucinotta on Thu Apr 18 12:29:05 2019 

Hi everybody,

sorry if this question has already been posed (I did a quick search but I didn't found anything): elog sorts entry by ID, I wonder if it is possible to pin an entry in order to be always on top of the page independently on its ID.

Thanks

Giuseppe
