Still no luck changing the TZ for a single elog service.  I completed the following:

* I added a new user/group - central-tz-user (id 1010)
* changed user TZ to central, su as user and confirmed CDT via 'date'
* changed elogd.cfg usr and grp to central-tz-user
* changed elog directory recursively to central-tz-user ownership
* restarted the elog instance and confirmed via 'ps aux' that 1010 is running elog process
* When I go to elog and add new entry, server time (PDT) is shown. 

Am I missing a step here possibly?

Thanks Stefan,  It looks like the group had actually contacted you directly as well (sorry for the redundant work!).  Thanks for the help, the great application and your time.

If you need different time zones on the same server, you have to create two accounts and run two instances of elogd on these accounts.

I have multiple elogs running on a server.  Is it possible to set one elog to a different timezone?  For example, I run an elog for a group in Washington state, and another elog for a collaboration group in Germany.  I would like to set each elog to their respective timezone. 

thanks,

Andreas,

I am running the latest version of the elogd source RPM that I could find - ELOG V3.1.0-2411f95 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago), with kernel level 2.6.32-504.16.2.el6.x86_64. I can try grabbing the latest source code from Git and try building that. There are a couple other fixes I'd like to apply anyway. Thanks!

As you've pointed out, for the very same browsers D&D works with the Forum, and that is ELOG 3.1.0.
Hence I can only conclude that it is neither a browser, nor an ELOG issue, but a problem of your local installation. Maybe you try with a fresh and clean installation first? What Linux are you using, by the way?
Or you've picked by bad luck a 3.1.0 version where D&D did really not work. But I cannot tell, since you did not specify the git revision in the ELOG version (it is possible now ;-)
Cheers
Andreas

Drag and drop for attachments dosn't work on either Chrome 37.0.2062.94 (64-bit) or FIrefox 31.5.3 (both on Linux). D&D works on the midas.psi.ch demo page.

On my logbooks, the "drop attachements here" area does not have a dashed line border.

I don't see anything in the elogd.conf file that pertains to this feature.

I have multiple elogs running on a server.  Is it possible to set one elog to a different timezone?  For example, I run an elog for a group in Washington state, and another elog for a collaboration group in Germany.  I would like to set each elog to their respective timezone. 

thanks,

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the explanation.  I realised it was just an error message of no real import, but it can get irritating at times.

Stefan Ritt wrote:

Cookies are sent from your browser. ELOG has no influence on what the browser sends where. Probably you run your calender at the same machine where ELOG is running, so all the cookies your calender app stores in your browser are sent to ELOG as well. ELOG just complains about something it does not know, but otherwise this message can be simply ignored. Of course you can delete your cookies in your browser, but after the next call to your calendar app they will show up again.

On my linux box, every time I select a thread, or start a new entry etc, I see that one or many cookies are sent.

On a terminal, I get the message

Received unknown cookie "CalciumDisplayParams"


Now I do have a perl script called Calcium, (Calendar viewed through the browser) but it's definately not running now, not in any browser window, and in any case why should an action of ELOG trigger this?  I realise it may be due to an idiocyncratic set up of this box.  But in normal operation, I doubt the user would see these cookies being received.
