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)

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

Thanks a lot Stefan, for fixing this so quickly! I'm now running 3.1.5 fe60aaf0, with the phantom-attachment-count issue in the Summary view now
resolved.  Cheers, Andreas W.

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"

Hi Team,

I have set up Elog on the Ubuntu server using the compile and install method. I have installed ImageMagick and GhostScript along with that.
