Wikipedia has been an unreliable source for a very long time, just for the reasons that we are seeing here now with psi
and Elog. Those that 'run' Wikipedia are political and authoratative. I have not only had these negative experiences with 'them' but know
of many others that have as well. I see no reason why an organization as  ours with such great ideas,  programs and people need to be on their

I am rather with John on this.

I deliberately stopped contributing to Wikipedia years ago after I added an observation to an entry.  That is, a piece of what could be
called original research.  It was shot down in flames for being precisely that: original research.    From what I read in the Draft:Elog

The section of the ELOG Administrator's Guide https://elog.psi.ch/elog/adminguide.html describing
how to build and install ELOG on a Mac OS X system has worked well for me for several years, even though there have been warnings that the "load"
and "unload" subcommands of the "launchctl" command have been deprecated for some time.  After trying my luck again on a new Mac

Here's a more complete/correct set of the updated commands:

sudo launchctl enable system/ch.psi.elogd
sudo launchctl bootstrap system /Library/LaunchDaemons/ch.psi.elogd.plist

Hi Stefan, Thanks a lot for implementing the updated commands. I noted that there are a few typos that could cause people confusion if not fixed:

In one case, "launchctl" is misspelled.

Confusingly, I think the two lines containing the 'enable' and 'disable' commands use the contiguous text string "system/ch.psi.elogd"

When using the Webserver authentication in combination with "File" and "Self register = 3", it is possible to keep track of registrations
and control access still. This is very useful, and upon clicking on the logbook for the first time, the user is asked to register by typing their username,
full name and email address.
