Do I have to do some sort of conversion to move the pwd file from one server to another?
Or should I try using the sync command for the move? does sync also move the pwd file??


Of course you have to start elogd after you copied all files over, but I presume you did that. The
password file itself does not need any conversion, it should work on both hosts fine. Cloning an elog logbook
(via the "-C <url>") flag, does copy the password file if you enter "yes" to the according question. Have you
checked the file permission of the password file? Maybe the user name elogd is running under has no read access
to it.


I reinstalled elog on the new server and ran the clone (via the "-C <url>"), wow that is really slick. But unfortunately my passwords and user data were not transfered. I did say 'Y' when prompted to transfer the password info.

I think my problem is that one server is running 2.5.9 (or 2.6.0 beta, unstable, Debian) and my new server is running 2.5.5.3 (stable, UBUNTU).

Are the password files not compatible between the 2 versions?

All my logbook entries appear to be there in full.

btw: I am back leveling to 2.5.5.3 because I lose my last column on every log book view.

I wanted to add that the elog.pwd file did transfer when I used the "elogd -C <url>" command, but the passwords and accounts were not recognized. Also I edited my elog.conf file to contain the absolute address of my elog.pwd file.

I fixed it... I merely backed out of the XML format of the elog.pwd and reverted to common passwd format. Everyone can log in now... great product.

  69699   Mon Oct 9 10:43:46 2023 Question Celeste Torkzabantorkzaban at iqo.uni-hannover.deQuestionWindowsELOG V3.1.3-793link to attachment within html editor

Hello,
I like the ELcode feature that lets you easily make an internal link to an attachment in the same post. However, I wasn't able to get this to work in the html editor, even though it's possible to use the ELcode format to link to another post in the logbook. When I type in elog :/1 in the html editor (without the space) and submit (even with an attachment present), it weirdly gets changed and shows up as 61/1 in the submitted elog, without any hyperlink. As far as I know we're using the standard elog code and only modified css parameters. Is there another syntax to link to attachments in html?
Testing it out here: 69699/1  (elog :/1 without the space turned into 69699/1)

thank you!

You can always insert the full link to the attachment like this one: https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/231009_104933/SCR14.PNG

But you can also use elog:69699/1 as shown here. Unfortunately you can do that only after the entry has been submitted, so you know the ID number of that entry. Once you have it, edit the entry and put it in.

Hello,

I've noticed that many times, I start an elog and continue editing adding to a few hours later, then I submit and it deletes everything I entered after the last time a draft was saved. I paid more attention and saw that it saves a draft after about a few minutes, and if I wait too long before submitting, it doesn't let me re-save the draft. My workaround is to copy all text before I submit, so if it ignores whatever I entered after the last saved version, I can edit it and paste it back in. Is there a setting someplace that I can change to fix this problem?

Thanks!
