Do you have the problem on this Forum as well?

If not, then something is wrong with your installation. Like old JavaScipt files etc. Start with a fresh installation and you should be fine.

If you have the same problem in this Forum, let me know and I will further investigate it.

Hello Stefan,

thanks for you reply. I tried an ujpdate today to my old installation, but also after cleaning the IE cache, the problem consists. The same result is, when doing a clean new installation, with the default elog.cfg and and cleaned cache as well an IE that was reseted to defaults.  

I am running version v3.1.1 3f311c5 now.      Do you maybe have another idea, to fix that issue.

Thanks

Torsten

This issue should have been fixed in the new version 3.1.1. If the problem still persists, try to clear your browser's cache, since it might still have cached the old JavaScript files having this bug.

Hi all,

first off all let me say, that I realy like this great tool. That is a lot of help for keeping our server documentation up-to-date. Thanks to all contributors for that.

I right here, because I actually have an issue with saving entries working with IE11 (but also in IE9). When ever I enter an entry, and click the save button, the page open a page with the text: "OK 1"   or the second attemp: "OK 2"   3rd  "OK 3" and so on (see screenshot). To get back to my Item list, I have to click the back button in the internet explorer. I also opens a lot of draft entries in my databases.  When I submit my entry, I don't have an issue, and the entry is saved correctly.

This issue doesn't happen when using Google Chrome.

Had anyone an simlar issue using elog with IE?  It would be great to have some help with that issue.

Thanks

Torsten

You did not specify which version of elog you were using. There was recently an update which uses a new format in the password file. When you start this the first time, the program should convert automatically from the old format to the new format and thus increasing security. If this does not work for some reason, so can do password recovery using the "Forgot password?" link in the login page.

Nearly correct, just follow the note: specify a logbook via the -l parameter.
So if you logbook is called "linux", you enter

elogd -a youtheman -l linux
