Hi,

When i set Language = French in global config it works in french until i logout, after i can't login anymore, even if i enter my user and password i always stay at the login window, the only way to login again is to edit the Elogd.cfg file in Elog directory, remove the Language = french and save then i can login in and work normally in english version.

Thanks.

Dear ELOG experts,

the ELOG server on our lab crashes  continuosly, when we add a new entry or even if we click the arrows to navigate between entries. Following the FAQ on the website, I have used gdb and found the following error:

xmalloc: not enough memory

[Inferior 1 (process 23271) exited with code 01]

It should be then some allocation issue when we try to access to the entries, but I could not figure the nature of the issue. I was, however, able to reproduce it with a fresh ELOG installation and the same configuration file (ELOG cloned from git and installed today)

Could you please give me any suggestion? I attach here the configuration file we use.

Best regards,

Antonio Iuliano

Hi,

sorry for bugging you with this, but I could not find any information for making migration of elog system from one server to another.
The migration should be done from one server version (CentOS 6.10 to CentOS 7.6). Also we are talking about migration from one subdomain to another. Example subdomain1.example.com to subdomain2.example.com. Old elog application version is 3.1.2 and I would like to migrate to the latest version 3.1.4 

Is the migration from one system to another possible?  What are the prerequisites for migration?
Are there any instructions how to do it?

Thank you in advance and have yourself a lovely day,
Warmest regards
 

We're running elogd behind an apache proxy server, with Authentication = Webserver. We have top groups configured, but a single shared password file.

If a user is looking at a particular logbook and goes to the Config link, they are presented with a list of checkboxes for email subscription to logbooks in that top group.  Clicking "Save" will remove all email subscriptions from all other top groups.

Is there a workaround to this issue?

EDIT: Manually adding an entry for different logbooks in the password file gets clobbered the next time the user logs in.

Dear all.

I am running elog 

elogd 3.1.4 , revision ead6bbc6

on Macosx Mojave

Darwin arpg-serv.ing2.uniroma1.it 18.5.0 Darwin Kernel Version 18.5.0: Mon Mar 11 20:40:32 PDT 2019; root:xnu-4903.251.3~3/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64

I managed to compile and run without problems the elog source code.

I can run it and have it properly displayed at boot time. After the server boot, for few hours, I have the elog ready at http://arpg-serv.ing2.uniroma1.it/elog  but then, after few hours.. I get that the service stops and the elog is no longer accessible.

So far I was able to track down the problems only to the 

/var/log/system.log

file in which I find a not useful error message:

Eg: Apr 23 14:00:46 arpg-serv com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (ch.psi.elogd[85248]): Service exited with abnormal code: 1

I do not know I can I debug this nor why the code runs for few hours without problems... I just re-downloaded the code from scratch today, unloaded and then re-loaded the daemon but still it fails with the same error.

I am sure that I can get it running again for few hours by re-booting. But I want to understand the source of the problem.. Anyone can be of help on this long standing issue?

Thanks

For demonstration, I created https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/8

The Find search for category aaa(bb) does not give results.
A quick filter corrects the value to aaa\(bb) and delivers results.

I made a simple fix and submitted it as PR to the bitbucket repository.

Hello,
I have experienced some inconveniences with the restrict edit time option.

First, it is not possible for admin users to edit an entry after the edit time.
The restrict edit option allows admin users to edit posts from other users,
so I think admins should also be allowed to edit posts after edit time.
As they can edit the config and temporarily disable the restrict edit time option, which is an issue.

Secondly, if a user made a draft and did not submitted it before the edit time runs out,
the draft got stuck as it cannot be edited (and submitted) any more.

Best wishes,
Sebastian

You were so close: boolean has the two values "0" (unchecked) and "1" (checked).

 Attributes = Bruger, Station, Emne, Status, PM5
 Options PM5 = boolean
 Email PM5 1 = fj@tvis.net

That does work, I've tested it.
