I have v2.7.7 of elog running on a OSX system running 10.6 I configured and installed about a year ago.  It's a wonderful thing to have.

I acquired another system running 10.6 to dedicate to the elog app.  I downloaded 2.7.8  and performed the following steps:

extract tarball in the desired directory

run

tar -xzvf elog-x.x.x.tar

switch to the new elog-x.x.x directory edit Makefile and elogd.cfg files as needed

to create executables

run

make

to create directories & files

run

make install

When I try to execute elog as a daemon:

elogd -c ~vulcanstaff/ELOG-Workspace/elog/elogd.cfg -D

I get the following message:

-bash: elogd: command not found

good morning,

I have installed elog 2.8.0 from terminal but when I type

elogd -p 80

or simply

elogd

the system tells me

Cannot bind to port 8080

Can someone help me?

Thanks

We have multiple users for a single elog.  Aside from making an entry only editable by the author, is there a way to secure the entry if it is being edited so that only one user may edit a particular entry at one time?

Also, is there a way to auto-submit entries after x minutes?

Your help and support are appreciated.

I just got a Proxy error from your site: When I clicked on the change password link that was sent to my email, I entered my new password (which was the same that I believed to have used before) and after submitting this form, I got the Proxy error. Also I find that I can never login with my once set password. Is it the Email or username on gives in the login field? Other quirk: I never can preview my post. When I click preview, nothing happens. Submitting worked today but yesterday I was unable to submit a post. I clicked several times on the submit button and nothing happened. -- Christoph

With the recent Elog 2.9.0 rev 2412 the Self Register = 3 option doesn't work as expected: The user is immediately allowed to login. This is not what this option was doing, which is to wait for an approval by the administrator. Can this behaviour be restored, or should I change the value of the Self Register flag? Thanks

 It would be nice to have this corrected. The problem occurs when you select (read) a message which refers to another message via "In-reply-to", and this message does not exist.

Hi

  I just updated my mirror server, which I just use as a backup to my main server, to 2.9.0 and found that after logging in (the selection page is not protected, but the individual logbooks are) and coming back to the selection page I no longer get the "Synchronize all logbooks" even though I am an admin user. The relevant code is in elogd.c in the show_selection_page() routine:

       /* only admin user sees synchronization link */
        if (is_admin_user("global", getparam("unm"))) {
         rsprintf("<tr>\n");
         rsprintf("<td colspan=13 class=\"seltitle\">\n");
         rsprintf("<a href=\"?cmd=Synchronize\">%s</a></td>\n", loc("Synchronize all logbooks"));
         rsprintf("</tr>\n");
      }
 

what is happening is that after logging in to a logbook and coming back to the selection page, the "unm" parameter is not set, so getparam("unm") returns NULL, who clearly is not in the admin user list.  The strange thing is that in an individual logbook the unm (and uname) parameters are working fine, and I have admin rights - can change the global config file, do an individual synchronization, etc.  It is just from the selection page that the unm parameter is not working.

In fact, I commented out the if statement above, just to see if I could get synchronized using the link, and that failed too, with a message "No user name supplied for remote access" even though I do have a "mirror user" statement in my config.  Again, if I do each one individually it all works.  In addition, the cron synchronization (i.e. mirror cron) also works fine.

Obviously this isn't crucial, just a pain that can be worked around, but if anyone has any ideas I'd be glad to hear them.
