This looks like exactly what I wanted, thanks!

I am trying to run eLog under Apache 2 on my FreeBSD 5.3 server.  I started
the daemon with "elogd -n <my hostname> -p 8080" and when I connect to my
server on that port, I get a 500 server configuration error.  The Apache log
contains this:

malformed header from script. Bad header=Please specify hostname.: elog

I am running elogd 2.5.7-1 built Feb 14 2005, 09:55:19 revision 1.558

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

No luck.  I have the proxy definition in my httpd.conf file.  I have the URL parameter
in my elogd.cfg file.

Here is the command line I am using to start the daemon:

elogd -v -D -n <myhost> -p 8080 -l <myhost>/cgi-bin/elog/logbooks -c
/usr/local/server/apache/cgi-bin/elog/elogd.cfg

With the -v argument, here are the messages I get in /var/log/messages:

I am still getting the exact same error in my Apache log.

Any more ideas?

Hi,

Is it possible to attach multiple files at one time?  Right now I have to attach each individually, click submit, then confirm, then re-select the next file...

This is a pain if one is attaching many files as I often want to do.  It would be nice to be able to select groups of files together using Ctrl and/or Shift, and even to attach a whole directory recursively.

I looked through previous threads but did not find this question asked there.

Thanks,

Eric

 Hi Stefan,

Okay thanks for letting me know.  That is unfortunate now.

Is there no way also to select multiple files with shift or ctrl?  Is there any usable workaround that you can see?

Thanks,

Eric

We've upgraded our ELOG installation to v3, and we really like the new CKeditor. However, one of my users has noticed a problem when using Iframe HTML elements with CKeditor; namely that the HTML is not present when trying to edit the post, and saving the post erases the HTML. 
I was able to reproduce this fairly simply, by trying to embed a youtube video. I would create a new post, click the "Source" view in CKeditor, and paste something like the following:
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/RzZgFKoIfQI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Upon submission, this produces a totally normal .log file in the logbook directory, and the video is viewable on the ELOG page:

Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2014 15:52:20 -0800
Author: test
Type: General
Category: General
Subject: test
Attachment:
Encoding: HTML
========================================
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/RzZgFKoIfQI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Then, upon hitting "Edit," I am greeted by a totally empty CKeditor window, and hitting "Source" does not display the original HTML. 
Any help is greatly appreciated!

PS: Including the first line of the logfile in this very post would cause the submitted post to be truncated for some reason, although the preview looked fine. Pasting it here also caused the log to end abruptly. The string is "(dollar sign)(at symbol)MID(at symbol)(dollar sign): 9"

Hi all,

It's possible my question is entirely within the domain of CKeditor, but I figure it may also have something to do with how it's plugged into ELOG. 

In essence, when attaching a PDF to an ELOG post as an image, the post body shows the generated thumbnail and there is a link to the full resolution PDF at the bottom of the post. 

However, if instead, I attach a JPG or PNG, the link to the full resolution image is not present in the post (though it can be accessed through the small paperclip icon).

Is there a way to show links to the thumbnailed images, or even for the thumbnail itself to be a hyperlink to the full resolution source?

Thanks for your time,

Eric Q.
