  1595   Tue Jan 17 01:01:05 2006 Question Jason Koglinkoglin@astro.columbia.eduQuestion V2.6.0localhost definition problem
I've been running elog on my laptop for about a year. I have had a problem several times now when I have had a bad crash of my computer that afterwards elog does not run correctly. The problem appears to be that "localhost" (e.g., http://localhost:8080/) gets changed to a domain name (http://sylvester.columbia.edu:8080/) which is not registered. I only want it to access this elog database locally on my machine and do not even want to set it up as a web server.

I freshly installed it and when I type in http://localhost:8080/ it sends me to http://localhost:8080/demo/ . If I click on the first and only entry it sends me to http://sylvester.columbia.edu:8080/demo/1 and an error occurs loading the page. However if I type in http://localhost:8080/demo/1 it brings up the first entry correctly, but with no formatting because presumably it is looking in the wrong place for the default theme.

How do I fix this since this time reinstalling and rebooting hasn't fixed the problem?

Thanks,

Jason.

Hi Jason, how is going? Long time no hear!

What you need is following line in your config file:
URL = http://localhost:8080/

This is because elog does not know its "own" address, and therefore tries to figure this out over the network. Your laptop probably has the name "syslvester", and you run it inside columbia.edu, so it "thinks" it can reach itself via http://sylvester.columbioa.edu:8080. The URL statement above overrides this "guess".

Best regards,

Stefan

Hi!

At first, thanx for this software!

But i found a bug or something like that. I installed elog on win2003 and winxp with default settings. And everywhere i had same problem - when forgot password is used it kills elogd. Error what is reported in EventLog is "Faulting application elogd.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module elogd.exe, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0002f1ee." and thats all. For testing tried newest beta too but it seems to have same problem.
i can insert my email address and when i click submit it wait's for some time and then gives 404.

Any kind of info would be good...

I tried with the current version under XP and found no problem. Can you try 2.6.0-beta4?

doing the same thing on my elog installation (ELOG V2.5.9-2) gives the error

Yes I have upgraded Elog to 2.5.8-2.
I submit my new elogd.cfg file maybe it will help you.
I have try the preset text under Firefox (the last), avant browser 10.0 
(build 165) and IE 6 SP1.

Thanks for help :o)
