| Stefano Lacaprara | stefano.lacaprara@pd.infn.it | Question | Linux | 3.1.3 | edit templates from config page | Dear all,
I have some logbook which uses preset text depending on some option values, and uses text files for this.
something similar to:
Options Type = Start of shift{1}, 2h{2}, 4h{3}, 6h{4}, End of shift {5}
{1} Preset text = MCProdStart.txt
{2} Preset text = MCProd2h.txt
{3} Preset text = MCProd4h.txt
{4} Preset text = MCProd6h.txt
{5} Preset text = MCProdEnd.txt
I wonder if there is a way to change/edit the text files from the web interface if you are admin of that logbook, or if the only way is to change the files directly in the elog server.
thanks Stefano |

| Andrew Wade | awade@caltech.edu | Question | Linux | Other | 3.1.2 | Reverse proxy of Elog using Docker and Nginx? | I've been trying to configured a Synology NAS to run my personal elog with a reverse proxy to the outside world. The best way seems to be running Elog in a Docker instance and then running a separate connected Docker running a nginx-proxy (in this case jwilder/nginx-proxy). This second container manages the certificates to letsencrypt and mapping URL requests to relevant containers so that connection is secured properly.
It worked great in the initial test. However, I have an issue with authentication. When I password protect the elog it goes to a login page. When I give an correct password it loops back to the login page (incidentally when I give an incorrect password it gives an 'Invalid user name or password!' warning). So I know that its getting the correct password but there is some issue that is resetting or ignoring the authentication. I am never able to actually get to the protected content.
Does anyone have any experience in using Nginx to setup a secure reverse proxy? Any insights into why this would mess with the authentication of elog?
Side note: I have tried using Apache to do the same and authentication worked fine. But the pre-canned jwilder/nginx-proxy docker manages all the certificates automatically and seamlessly and allows me to have multiple services running on the same outward facing port on my router. There is no equivalent (as far as I know) that uses Apache for proxying with letsencrypt. |

| Gino Guenzburger | gino.guenzburger@empa.ch | Question | Windows | 3.1.3 | Changing of entries after expired time restriction by synchronisation | I'm working on setting up an elog as lab-journal in our group with the following set-up:
- The elog is running on a server, with no back-end access for the users.
- Multiple people will use it, all loging in with the same user-name and password.
- The entries submitted to the log-book can only be edited for 24hours, as defined by the "Restrict edit time= 24" setting in the configuration file.
Now I encountered the following problem in my set-up: Entries that do not have attachments can be changed after these 24hours have passed, by the following set-up: If a user (in the current case me during testing) sets up a local elog on his computer and activates the synchronisation with the elog on the server, he can switch off the time-restriction for editing on his local elog, and if he synchronises the two log-books, the changed entry from the local elog will overwrite the original one from the server-elog.
Obviously this is not very desirable. Therefore I wanted to ask, whether anyone sees a possibility to prevent the editing of entries, which are older than the restricted edit time. A specific function or a change in the synchronisation behaviour would of course be the completest solution, but in my case the problem would also be solved if I could just prohibit the synchronisation. It is not needed, so no harm will be done if it is not possible.

| Roland Beyer | roland.beyer@hzdr.de | Question | Linux | V3.1.1-0767eb0 | Buttons missing in ckeditor | Hello everybody,
we had to setup a new server for our elog some time ago because the old one crashed. We are now running version ELOG V3.1.1-0767eb0.
In the previous installation we had these nice buttons for file upload, time stamp and equation editor, which are also available here in the online version.
I already found that in the installation directory ("/usr/local/elog/") there exists a directory "scripts" containing a file "ckeditor-config.js", which also contains the lines:
"config.extraPlugins = 'timestamp,dndfiles,eqneditor,fileupload';" and "{ name: 'insert', items: [ 'Image', 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'Smiley', 'SpecialChar', 'PageBreak', 'FileUpload', 'Timestamp', 'EqnEditor' ] },"
These plugins seem to be available in the subdirectory "scripts/ckeditor/plugins/". But why are they not loaded? Is it just a version issue? Or something else?
It would be nice to get a hint.
Best regards,
Roland |

| Sergio Navarrete | sergionavarrete+elog@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 3.1.3 | Logfile not registering entry numbers? | I have configured a logbook with the logfile on, but when a user replies to an entry the line logged goes
Date Time [User@IP] {Logbook} NEW entry #0
How can I make the #0 be the real entry number for the reply?

| Devrim Esenturk | devrim.esenturk@gmail.com | Bug report | Linux | V3.1.3-7933898 | How many "Extendable options" can I add? | Hi
I am trying to add "Extendable options" for some attribute as below example. However button to add new item for list appears only for the first "Extendable options", if disable the first with (;), button appears for the second. It means elog add new item button only the first line "Extendable options" not for other?
Is this a limitation or bug or am I doing something wrong?
Options Require = N/A, Camera{1}, Lens{2}, Other{3}
{1} MOptions Require Model= XNB-6001, PNM-7000VD, PNM-9000VQ, PNM-9320VQ
{2} MOptions Require Lens = SLA-T2480, SLA-T2480V, SLA-T4680, SLA-T4680V, SLA-T1080F, SLA-2M2400P, SLA-2M2800P, SLA-2M3600P, SLA-2M6000P, SLA-2M1200P, SLA-5M3700P, SLA-5M4600P, SLA-5M7000P, SLA-2M2400Q, SLA-2M2800Q, SLA-2M3600Q, SLA-2M6000Q, SLA-5M3700Q, SLA-5M4600Q, SLA-5M7000Q, SLA-2M2400D, SLA-2M2800D, SLA-2M3600D, SLA-2M6000D
{3} MOptions Require Other = Base Unit
Extendable options = Require Model
Extendable options = Require Lens
Extendable options = Require Other
Thank you

| Frank Baptista | caffeinejazz@gmail.com | Question | Windows | 3.1.2 | Logbook architecture and availability | I have a setting which makes ELOG a perfect solution, but there's a situation that I'm struggling to get my head around. We have 3 separate laboratories, each one containing a number of temperature chambers, which run almost constantly over a number of shifts. Each temperature chamber has it's own logbook (laptop). So far, pretty simple.
My dilemma is, our network goes down for maintenance/updates (more often than I'd like), but our operation cannot afford to stop during network interruptions.
With that said, I thought about whether I could run a "local" logbook on each laptop/chamber, and somehow mirror the local logbook to the main ELOG server.
Perhaps I'm over-thinking this...do you have any recommendations? |

| Stefano Lacaprara | stefano.lacaprara@pd.infn.it | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.3 | quick filter not working for attributes with special char | Hi,
I'm using elog 3.1.3 and I have an elogbook with an attribute with name
Attributes = Author, CO2 Temp [deg], ...
If I add this attributes to quick list,
Quick filter = Author, CO2 Temp [deg]
it does display on web page, but the search fails with "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS" if I leave the default value in the corresponding quick filter box.
My understanding is that the presence of a "[]" in the default search value is the reason for failure and if I remove them the search works fine.
Is there a workaround?
I don't want to change the attribute name, since I do have quite a large number of entries in the elogbook, and I'd like to keep the attribute in the quick search if possible.
Thanks,
Stefano |
