I used "chown" to pass permissions from root to my deafult user, then restarted the service and now I can make posts. Thank you!

Sometimes this can also be an SELinux issue, if you have that service running. Try "journalctl | grep denied" to see denied resources and consult the SELinux documentation on how to fix that.

Permissions are handled by the operating system and have nothing to do with elog. Make sure you run elog under an account which has write access to the desired directories. Consult Ubuntu documentation how to do that. Sometimes it's helpful to start elog interactively with the -v flag to see some verbose output. Maybe you can spot something there.

Hi all,

I have the same problem on Ubuntu 22.04. I have compiled from the latest tarball and copied all our logbooks from our old Ubuntu 18.04 server to a new Ubuntu 22.04. The logbooks does however not appear when I log in, so I assume ELOG doesn't have read access either?
Any hints on how to set the permissions correctly would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mikkel

Hello,

I have just installed elog onto an ubuntu focal server using <sudo make install> and I am unable to create new entries.

When I access the log via a windows PC connected to the local network, I can see the demo logbook with the 1 test post, but I cannot create or edit anything.

Attempting to post throws the error:

New entry cannot be written to directory "/usr/local/elog/logbooks/demo/"

Please check that it exists and elogd has write access and disk is not full.

 

 

Please point me in the right direction to correctly set permissions and create aditional log books.

 

Thanks,

Dan

Most likely these are some currupt logbook files. If you get a coredump (or stack trace) you can maybe figure out which file it was. These are plain ASCII files (YYMMDDa.log) and you can see with an editor if someting there is not in order.

I'm going to try and see if it will leave a coredump file, just thought I would ask if anyone else had seen this before?

Thanks,

UNCs are not officially supported by elog, but your operating system might map them if you're lucky, just try. It is however not recommended to do so, since network drives can sometimes be slow during network congestion and the response of elog will then suffer.

So there is no way to save the file on the network?! :(

Can i install the elog on a windows server? i tried it yesterday, but i think i missed something, couse i only could open the elog on the server and not with a client pc.

I'm running ELOG on a windows server 2016. Just installed the windows installer and worked out of the box. 

Have you checked the firewall?

Hi,



We discussed on windows build some weeks ago and i tried to make one to check if it’s possible.

The result is in https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/69491

This could help you up to official new build.
