icon5.gif   use LDAP and elog.pwd file, posted by scott on Fri Mar 8 13:09:31 2024 
Hi Members,

I have compiled and installed ELOG in Ubuntu 22.04. My ELOG version is 3.1.5 revision fc6679b. I would like to use both the password file (../logbooks/elog.pwd)

Hi Everybody,

I import a logbook from csv file, with a number for laboratory's notebook, which can be use by multiple intern. I'd like to add
a "reply to" when the number is the same, it's like a "move to" but in the same logbook.

Hi all,

I am using the Apache webserver authentication and redirection over http (not https). I have configured it 1:1 as described in the Adminguide.
In the elog.cfg I set Authentication = Webserver.

I found the reason of the bug:
In line 27441 of elogd.cxx the http_user is overwritten by the user saved in the sid_ array as a sideeffect of the sid_check
function:

Thanks for the fix, I committed it. Please give it a quicky try sinc I cannot test it here (don't use webserver authentication...)

"file not found" should return http code 404. elogd returns code 200 together
with a page containing text "404 not found". This pollutes the browser cache

Hi,

As there is no ELOG available in Epel repository for Rocky9, I tried to install ELOG from https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/RPMS/elog-latest.el7.x86_64.rpm

Hi

You can use an option to wget to discard certificate checks m.

Btw this rpm file is build for el7 gen aka entreprise linux 7. So it souldn't install  on gen 9....

I confirm, both wget and curl do not work, not happy with https certificate. (current macos)

To have ELOG RPM for EL9, you need to rebuild package from source under EL9 host or VM (i use almalinux9 for this test) :

1- install RPM build tools (csh is used by ELOG scripts. Devel rpms are dependencies) :


sudo dnf install rpm-build gcc gcc-c++ git openssl-devel krb5-devel pam-devel openldap-devel csh


2- retrieve last source

The chain certificate on elog.psi.ch has been expired, so I installed  the current one and now wget should be happy ;-)

icon5.gif   Webserver Auth Method and Self Registration, posted by James on Sun Feb 18 11:43:07 2024 login-error.pngelogd.cfg
Hi there. I have been testing a set-up of elog behind an Apache reverse proxy using the Webserver auth method. Apache has been configured for LDAPS with
Active Directory allowing us to restrict Elogs by AD group, something not able to be done with the LDAP module.

Testing with Elog 3.1.4 (on Windows) and also Elog 3.1.5 (compiled on Ubuntu 20.04) I experience an issue that when the user logs in for the
ELOG V3.1.5-3fb85fa6
