  75   Tue Jul 16 15:19:08 2002 Question WootenEWootene@gao.govQuestion  change the Email From address used when sending notifications
Is there a way to change the From address used when sending notifications 
from ELOG?   I was hoping there might be another attribute that would go 
along with the smtp host section.

Thanks,
Eric
  69754   Fri Mar 8 13:09:31 2024 Question scottUsershiva.ps@stfc.ac.ukQuestionLinux | Other3.1.5use LDAP and elog.pwd file

Hi Members,

I have compiled and installed ELOG in Ubuntu 22.04. My ELOG version is 3.1.5 revision fc6679b. I would like to use both the password file (../logbooks/elog.pwd) and the LDAP for authentication purpose. In addition to this, new users should be able to register and existing users should be able to reset their password.

Anyone could shed some light on how to do this in the configuration file?

Thanks,
Scott

Use

Menu commands = List, Find, Help

to remove all command which let you create or edit entries (New, Reply, Edit, ...) 

Then do the same with "List menu commands = ..."

Good day. I am writing this post to ask how I can turn an elog website into a read-only version that will stay online for historical documention purposes.

I tried to search on Elog documentation but I had no success

Thank you and have a nice day

UNCs are not officially supported by elog, but your operating system might map them if you're lucky, just try. It is however not recommended to do so, since network drives can sometimes be slow during network congestion and the response of elog will then suffer.

Thanks for the fix, I committed it. Please give it a quicky try sinc I cannot test it here (don't use webserver authentication...)

I found the reason of the bug:
In line 27441 of elogd.cxx the http_user is overwritten by the user saved in the sid_ array as a sideeffect of the sid_check function:
sid_check(getparam("sid"), http_user)

It can solved by changing elogd.cxx @ line 27441

27441c27441,27446
<          if (!sid_check(getparam("sid"), http_user)) { /*  if we don't have a sid yet, set it */

Remark: I have used the variables i & thumb_name of the function in a local context.

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.

Stefan Ritt wrote:

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.

There are two locations where 'Subject' is shown, the list display and the individual message display. I guess you mean the first one. 

In that case, you can modify the CSS styel sheet 'elog.css' and add following statement to the classes list2 and list2h:

.list2 {
   ...
   white-space: nowrap;
}  

.list2h {
   ...
   white-space: nowrap;
}

Certain characters contained in the 'Subject' will cause the text to split into multiple lines .

For example if  I enter "My Subject" in the 'Subject' field it is displayed as

My

Subject

If I enter "My_Subject" it is displayed as 

My_Subject

Is there any way to change this so no line breaks are created ?

Hi,

Thanks for the links to EL8/EL9. 

 

Does this package support LDAP and SSL as well?

Hi,

The ELOG website provides new link to RPM packages :

Linux binaries are distributed as RPMs.

EL8/EL9 RPM are also available.

Is there an RPM available for Rocky 8 or Rocky 9?

And checking over https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/RPMS/ , only el7 is found. Is that the right place to look for EL8 or EL9 based RPM?

Thanks,

Scott

Nina, do you use right RPM version (el7/8/9) according to Rockylinux one ? El7 rpm can not be installed on RL9...

Hi Nina,

The RPM is built with Kerberos (libber*), LDAP (libldap*) and SSL (libssl*) options. These libs are missing on your system, and rpm command does not take care of dependencies.

 Try to install with yum : yum install elog-latest.el7.x86_64.rpm

Normally the missing rpm files should be dlded from RL repo if your host can access to them...
