  67250   Mon Apr 16 11:10:07 2012 Warning Christopher Leechris@chrisandclaire.orgBug reportLinux2435Forgot Password

We seem to have a problem with retrieving user passwords using the forgot password system
This only happens when trying to use the password recovery from the first screen that forces people to log in with the following syntax:

Protect selection page = 1
Password file = XXXXX

On the first page of our elog which can be found at

http://physics.uj.ac.za/elog/

Now currently there is one page that is viewable by guests, so going to this direct link, bypasses the login at the main page
If you try login from this page, and then use the forgot password link, the email that gets sent through will then work.

The first email that gets sent through using the main login page has the following link:
https://physics.uj.ac.za/elog/?redir=%3Fcmd%3DChange+password%26oldpwd%3DYJAATGHSIRRSBLLP&uname=Tester&upassword=YJAATGHSIRRSBLLP

When clicking on the above link normally, it takes you to a NULL user

 

The email link that gets sent from the guest page, that works, looks like this:
https://physics.uj.ac.za/elog/General/?redir=%3Fcmd%3DChange+password%26oldpwd%3DSACWEHJWWHKEXLMO&uname=Tester&upassword=SACWEHJWWHKEXLMO

 

Attached is a copy of the cfg file. The last few logbooks are all actually just copies of TEMPLATE A, so I have removed all their details to make the file easier to read for now

 Hi i am new here,

 
is there a way to use a Parameter like this "Fixed Attributes on first reply"?
  2283   Sat Jun 30 04:58:32 2007 Question Grant Jeffcotegrant@jeffcote.orgBug reportWindows2.65-2Fixed Attribute fields blank?
Hi Stefan,

Not sure if this is my configuration only but in your latest compiled release V2.6.5-1873 when I do a reply or edit on an entry where I have specified Fixed Attributes Edit or Reply these fields now show blank on the entry page? They are still uneditable as a field of course and the text still shows on the list view display page but no text shows in these fields until re/submitted.

Is this a new feature or just mine, reverting back to the previous release restores normality ;o)

Hi Stefan 
YOu have been a great help on the Elog problem solving .
I have another sort of bug , when i have a attribute type as date.
And i have fixed the attribute on reply , i actually get a string of 
number when i reply , and the date becomes not the orginal date in the 
first message.

So the way i work ard is that i did not place the date field in the fixed  
attribute reply which i will run the risk of pple modifying that entry .
Can this be fix?

Thanks

When we set Fix text = 1, according to the syntax, this should prevent users from modifying the text field during an edit, but it looks like it is blocking access at both time of edit and creation, meaning you can never add anything to it.  Is that the intended functionality?

Hi all,
My config file (a part of it) looks like this:

Options Locatie = Intern{a}, Extern{b}, Demo/Ontwikkel{c}, Hardware{d}, ---------------------, Anders

{a}Options Sessies = p-zis-pr1{1}, p-szh-pro{2}, p-dia-pro{3}, a-zis-ac1{1}, a-zis-ac2{2}, a-dia-acc{3}, ---------------------, Anders
{b} Options Sessies = FSC Pro{4}, FSC Acc{4}, Risc/Bus/Sms Pro{5}, Risc/Bus/Sms Acc{5}, ---------------------, Anders
{c} Options Sessies = BAO, BEH, BAOMPSO, BEHMPSO, Demonstrator, AFS, PTG, BSN, ---------------------, Anders
{d} Options Sessies = Wijziging, Storing

{1} Options Orgus = AZS, IZR, HPZ, iSOFT
{2} Options Orgus = VZL, Trombo, iSOFT
{3} Options Orgus = Diac, iSOFT
{4} Options Orgus = AMG, ZHH/Tergooi, ZNB
{5} Options Orgus = GOZL, MCA, MZG, SEH, SJD, ZGN


This is my question: when i use the "search/find" page and select the first drop down menu "Locatie", the next field "Sessies" will not be displayed (and all following fields either). On the other hand, when i create a new entry, it works perfect, select "Locatie", field "Sessies" displays his content and so on. I hope that someone can help me with this.
  898   Tue Feb 1 14:41:08 2005 Question Beeralphb.elog@spampot.comQuestionAll2.5.5-2Finding Last Changed Entries
Is there an inbuilt way to find the last entries changed in an elog?

I could add a "Last Mod" attribute and then config "Subst on edit Last Mod =
$date", but it occurred to me that this functionality might already be in
this wonderful tool somewhere, but I just haven't found it yet.

So, is it?

Best regards, Ralph.
