icon1.gif   Upload of images fails from mobile platforms when using ELOG under SSL, posted by Hanno Perrey on Wed Jun 10 11:36:48 2015 
Hej,

I discovered a problem uploading images taken with the cameras of mobile devices to new elog entries directly from said devices. When selecting
the image and choosing "Upload", either the blue page loading indicator gets stuck at around 10% (mobile Safari, iOS 8.3, iPhone 4 and iPad mini)

That's strange. Might have to do with the SSL library elog uses. I just tried this forum (actually the "Demo"), and it worked fine through
SSL, but I use an Apache proxy server for elog implementing the SSL protocol, which might be slightly different.

On the subject of uploads, is there a way to restrict the viewing size of an uploaded photo or picture in the config? So it doesn't appear over
more than one page.

Use thumbnails (need ImageMagick to be installed for that), and you can show for example 300x300 pixel thumbnails of all pictures.

Hej Stefan,

thanks for the suggestion -- through a Apache proxy the upload does indeed work without problems.

Cheers,

When I use "Revisions" name for attribute I have correct entry like "DATE by XXX from SOME_IP" which

Hi all :)

I try to setup my first lobgook, and have some problem. 

I want that Author was preset by $long_name, and it can't change its name. That works correct. I also want, when other user click Reply,

You have "Remove on reply" together with "Preset on reply Author". Since the first is executed later, you first preset the author
name, then remove it again. Just discard the "Remove on reply" and you are fine.

Ok. Now it works :) Thank you :) I'm translating Elog into Polish. When I finish, can I send it to you?

Drag and drop for attachments dosn't work on either Chrome 37.0.2062.94 (64-bit) or FIrefox 31.5.3 (both on Linux). D&D works on the
midas.psi.ch demo page.

On my logbooks, the "drop attachements here" area does not have a dashed line border.

As you've pointed out, for the very same browsers D&D works with the Forum, and that is ELOG 3.1.0.

Hence I can only conclude
that it is neither a browser, nor an ELOG issue, but a problem of your local installation. Maybe you try with a fresh and clean installation first? What
Linux are you using, by the way?

Or you've picked by bad luck a 3.1.0 version where D&D did really not work. But I cannot tell, since

Andreas,

I am running the latest version of the elogd source RPM that I could find - ELOG V3.1.0-2411f95 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6
(Santiago), with kernel level 2.6.32-504.16.2.el6.x86_64. I can try grabbing the latest source code from Git and try building that. There are a couple

Dear David,

what I meant with a "fresh and clean installation" is, that you do not install elog on the production system over
the existing elog, but instead on another Linux box.

One possible problem could be that you have a modified CSS (or some other file), which
is not overwritten by the ELOG installation. That file could break the D & D functionality.

My advise would be, to do an ELOG test installation
             icon2.gif   Re: Drag-and-drop not working in elog 3.1.0, posted by Stefan Ritt on Thu Jun 11 09:09:03 2015 
Sure, I just wanted to get feedback from you regarding the draft functionality. As it looks now people are happy, so I will do a 3.1.1.

icon1.gif   Different timezone settings for each elog, posted by gary holman on Wed Jun 10 17:30:34 2015 
I have multiple elogs running on a server.  Is it possible to set one elog to a different timezone?  For example, I run an elog for a group
in Washington state, and another elog for a collaboration group in Germany.  I would like to set each elog to their respective timezone. 

thanks,
    icon2.gif   Re: Different timezone settings for each elog, posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Jun 10 18:13:50 2015 
The elog server grabs the local timezone from the underlying OS. Under Linux, you can change the timezone using the TZ environment variable. See here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-linux-set-time-zone-per-user-basis/

If you need different time zones on the same server, you have to create two accounts and run two instances of elogd on these accounts.

Thanks Stefan,  It looks like the group had actually contacted you directly as well (sorry for the redundant work!).  Thanks for the help,
the great application and your time.

Still no luck changing the TZ for a single elog service.  I completed the following:

* I added a new user/group - central-tz-user (id 1010)
* changed user TZ to central, su as user and confirmed CDT via 'date'

Okay, I missed the obvious...
