Delete your cookies ;-)

Elog just logs all unknown cookies for trouble shooting. This should go under verbose output. I changed that just now.

No, go. The MidasWikiUserName cookie will log me out of the MidasWiki, etc.

But why are MidasWiki cookies sent to the elog? Ah, yes, they all run from the same https://midas.triumf.ca.

This explains why elog complains about unexpected cookies - elogd does not expect to receive
mediawiki cookies - it does not expect to share the https:// connection with somebody else.

This is good to know for the future. (I.e. if mediawiki is confused by elogd cookies).

The text should read:

the first time you run the new elogd against old elog data,
all existing entries will be moved into by-year subdirectories
and the old elogd will not work anymore.

I wanted to reply to the post "Three problems..." and then changed my mind. 
But since this logbook does not allow to delete entries (not even my own) I was neither able to remove the draft
nor the final entry.

Another strange thing: the draft got submitted when I hit the "Back" button after reopening it.

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.

I don't see anything in the elogd.conf file that pertains to this feature.

Auto-saving does not seem to be working. In the config file, I have the following:

Save drafts = 1
Autosave = 10

but I never see the "auto saving" message or get any other indication that the feature is working.

Am I missing something?

I changed this behaviour now, so authors can only edit their own drafts. Furthermore, drafts are not shown any more in the elog lists. In addition, deleting of entries is allowed now again in this forum, so if someone creates a draft by accident, he/she can delete it.
