I downloaded the last elog-3.1.5-1.tar.gz to install elog.

All *.cxx files are missing.

Hi,

I've just installed the news 3.1.5 version and I have 2 problems.
I don't know if it works with older versions because I started with latest.

- When using "select" menu then "edit" for multiple entries, the text is replaced with "- keep original text here -" instead of keeping the original values. Really annoying...

Another problem too, if I want to edit after, I have the error message "only author - keep original text here - can edit" although the author column is OK..
It looks like this problem is global and not only on text column.

- Version number is indicated "ELOG V3.1.4" instead of V3.1.5.

My config file :

I'm using Apache as reverse proxy with SSL and transparent Kerberos authentication (Microsoft Active Directory).
URL via Apache is https://elog.xxxxxx.xxx (no subdirectory).

Thanks for your help.

I checked and found that the bug which removed the main text was there since the beginning, but it's only triggered if you switch elog to French, it doesn't happen in the English version. I changed a bit the text processing so now it should work also in the French version.

I also changed the version number which is shown at the bottom to 3.1.5.

Thanks for your prompt help.
It looks good for text but I still have problem with "select" function (even in English).

If I use "select" menu :
- When multiple values are selected it indicates "only user - keep original values - can edit" (freshly created).




- When a single value is selected, it indicates "only user XXX can edit" where XXX is my truncated name (the first 4 letters).



After editing in with admin account the author is now my truncated name :



If I want to edit a single entry (without select menu) it works perfectly.

Thanks.
 

If it works with a simple edit, then why don't you use that one to edit individual values. I checked and version 3.1.4 had already the same problem, so it was not newly introduced. I would have to invest a couple of hours to fix this issue correcly, which I simply don't have right now.

Thanks !

Sometime I need to edit multiple values to add a new choice.
By exemple, if I add a new column "status" (open, closed...) , it's mandatory to use select menu to add the new value to existent entries.

With a lot of lines it's not possible to edit one by one.

The elog downloads page is slightly out of date, https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download.html

1) the "git clone" instructions work (but there is no git tags corresponding to different releases, I suggest adding test: "elog developers 
recommend always using latest version from elog git repository").

2) "elog source code", recommends downloading tar file, but latest tar file is from February 2023, probably out of date. people who can compile elog 
from sources can do "git clone", is the "tar" method still relevant?

3) windows binaries, latest available is from 2018, before the famous security fixes, probably no longer safe for running on the open internet. I 
suggest we remove this section and say "sorry, windows binaries no longer available".

4) linux binaries, all links are dead, and we have requested removal of elog packages from red hat, debian and ubuntu. (and they have been removed).

K.O.

Our elog instance (elogd 3.1.4 built Jan 13 2021, 20:44:20 revision ce2a48e9) has been running for years without any problems.

We have a new user who consistently crashes the elog:
