The elog client binary does not work with webserver authentication.  One fix would be to support both webserver and kerberos authentication (authentication = webserver, kerberos), similar to how you currently support 
"authentication = kerberos, file".

A more general discussion of the elog client binary with webserver authentication can be found at https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68318 .

Many thanks,

Is it possible to submit entries using the elog client binary when the server is configured with webserver authentication (when the server requires the X-Forwarded-User header)?  One option would be if the server could support both webserver and kerberos (or even file) authentication, but neither 
"Authentication = Webserver, Kerberos" nor "Authentication = Webserver, File" seem to work.

In addition to using the elog binary to talk to the elog server directly, we've unsuccessfully tried using curl to post data to the apache server url (URL in elogd.cfg).  We can read entries using curl, but haven't yet been able to submit entries.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin

I'm not sure I understand your question correctly.

If you want to remove options from an extendable option attribute, then you can just edit the logbook configuration file.

Hello,

We have accumulated some duplicate 'types' in one of our logbooks.  Is it possible to merge them?

Thanks,

Hello,

Has anyone implemented an email gateway for ELOG, allowing users to submit entries by sending an email?  Granted this should be possible using the elog client binary, but I thought I'd see if I've overlooked any examples or docs first.

Thanks!

Uppon closer inspection, removing the option to preset the secondary attribute as a Option list dosn't do anything for the find page.

This:

Attributes = A, B
Options A = One{1}, Two{2}
{1} Options B = 1, 2
{2} Options B = 3, 4

Still fails to set attribute B to a option list on  the find page. 

Stefan,

Thank you that is exactly what I needed to know.

Deleting a logbook in the config page (via "Delete this logbook") only removes the logbook defiition from the config file. To really erase all information you have to go to the file system and delete the whole directory belonging to that logbook. You have one subdirectory per year, containing all logobok entries and also attachments, so make sure you do a recursiver directory removal.
