Oops!

I think that I must have skipped straight to the MacOS notes instead of reading the linux section properly.

Thanks for the help,

you will see that for Linux (as well asl MacOS) you need the libssl-dev packaged to be installed. There are many ways to install this on MacOS, I personally use the MacPorts distribution:

I responded too quickly.

I already have openssl installed via macports (this is the "Mac version" of libssl-dev).

Does anyone know where exactly elog is looking for openssl/ssl.h? I have just updated Macports and upgraded to Sierra, so maybe it's been dumped it in a different location.

Well, this is my elog.conf: 
 
[global] 
logbook tabs = 1 
port = 8081 ; Automatically added in installation. 
Hosts allow = localhost, jazz.cocis.de, 127.0.0.1, 192.168. 
Hosts deny = ALL 
[debian] 
Theme = default 
Comment = debian logbook

  69373   Sat Jun 19 18:38:21 2021 Question Christian Ospelkauschristian.ospelkaus@iqo.uni-hannover.deQuestionAll3.1.3when using webserver authentication, how can I restrict the users that can edit any given elog?

Dear elog users & developers,

the subject line says it all: when using webserver authentication, how is it possible to restict access of users to any given elog? Only using the apche rules? Admin user and Login user do not seem to be doing anything for me. I am using elog as packaged by debian for buster, using an apache ssl proxy. Thank you for providing this software,

Christian

Dear all,

I figured it out. Current global config is (using kerberos instead)

[global]
port = 8081
Default encoding = 0
SSL = 0
Authentication = Kerberos
URL = https://my_url_here/
interface = 127.0.0.1
Password file = global.pwd
SMTP host = my_mail_host
Logfile = /var/log/elog.log
Logging level = 3
User = elog
Grp = elog

Best,

Christian

  68324   Fri Jun 3 08:16:31 2016 Question Christian Ludwig@Bug reportLinuxELOG V3.0.0-21delogd dies upon search

Hi all,

ELOG V3.0.0-21dc563

Our elogd dies alwways when searching for full text:

elogd: src/elogd.c:465: xrealloc: Assertion `*((unsigned int *) (temp + old_size)) == 0xdeadc0de' failed.
elogd: src/elogd.c:465: xrealloc: Assertion `*((unsigned int *) (temp + old_size)) == 0xdeadc0de' failed.

The only change we did was adding/editing entries.

 

Does anyone else encounter the same issue ?

I did not find any hint in release notes that this issue would be fixed in a later version

 

Please don't get me wrong, I am not complaining. Elog does a great job for us since years.

 

Christian

  68325   Fri Jun 3 08:59:49 2016 Smile Christian Ludwigchristiane_christian@mylife.luBug reportLinuxELOG V3.0.0-21dsolved: elogd dies upon search

I would like to share my findings about the solution of our problem:

One of my collegues used elog in a way it was not intended for, he put an endry with 8021 lines of text.

So I grabbed the corresponding 160517a.log file from logdir, renamed it to a text file and created a new entry with the large textfile as attachment.

Since then, no more crash of elogs.

 

May this contribution be useful to other elog users...
