| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Windows | 3.1.1 | Re: log entries after a certain date not displayed - 3.1.1 | Drafts are not shown in the list page, but you can browse directly to them, if you know their idea. They are also shown if you hit "new". Then a box comes up "You have unfished drafts, do you want to edit them?". This is the new draft feature introduced recently and a feature of elog.
But I guess you have a more general problem. You run two elogd severs, and you transfer information between the two servers via Dropbox. Elog is not made for that. Elog is a web server, so you don't have to transfer data via a could service (except maybe for backup). You can access your one and only elog instance from everywhere. Everything else will give you trouble.

Hi, I have noticed that if an entry is not submitted it is saved in a sub-folder (name is current ID number) eg http://localhost:8090/mike/23, while draft it doesn't appear in list page but you can browse directly to it.
When you update an entry on one server instance, if you then browse to the entry ID on the 2nd server instance it is draft. If you edit then submit the entry then appears in list page on 2nd server instance.
Thanks again.

Ah, I see another problem. The pre 3.1 version had all logbook files in one directory, and the 3.1 puts the files in one subdirectoy per year. On transition from 3.0 to 3.1, an automatic conversion is made, but only once. If you later add files into the root logbook directory, they will not be seen. So you have to move them manually into the right subdirectory.

Thanks very much for your comments. I will take a look at the mirror server functionality.
I have only been running one elogd at a time, restarting elogd (on Windows 10) doesn't seem to pick up the changes made on Windows 8.1 PC (stopped elogd after changes made and log file updated)

Besides the commen Andrea made I would like to add that you can convince elog to show all files if you simply restart it, then it will re-scan all files. But as Andreas said, if two elogd instances write to the same directory, you will get a mess with double IDs of entries.

Hi,
I'm having an issue with Elog 3.1.1 on windows 10 not displaying all log entries (after a certain date) in a logbook directory.
The logbook is saved in a Dropbox folder and the entries were created on a windows 8.1 PC with 3.1.1 also.
I created an entry in windows 10, this created a new log file (new day) with a duplicate ID, deleted the log file and then the windows 10 pc displayed all entries.
Is there any way to ensure Elogd picks up all log files ?
Thanks & Regards,
Mike

| Devin Bougie | devin.bougie@cornell.edu | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.1 | drag and drop attachments not working with web server authentication | Hello,
The "Drop attachments here..." section does not work when using Webserver authentication. Both elog 3.1.1 (the binary RPM) and apache are running on EL6.6 and are configured according to the docs. Authentication works fine and the normal "Choose File - Upload" attachment table works fine. However, when dragging an attachment to the "Drop attachments here..." section the dashes on the border turn green but when dropping the attachment nothing happens. If we revert to File authentication, everything works fine.
I don't see any errors in our elog or apache log files. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Devin |

| Devin Bougie | devin.bougie@cornell.edu | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.1 | Re: drag and drop attachments not working with web server authentication | Thanks, Stefan. I read that before asking my question, but didn't see a resolution in that thread. I am already at 3.1.1, and I am testing on a clean installation. Are you saying that the solution is in the development branch after the release of 3.1.1?
Thanks again,

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.1 | Re: drag and drop attachments not working with web server authentication | No. What the thread says is first try this forum, see if you can drag and drop here. If not, you have a problem on your browser. If yes, you have somewhere some old JavaScript file around. Might be in the cache of your browser.

Yeah, I had tried that and it did work in your demo forum. It just didn't work in mine with authentication = webserver, even with a clean browser profile.
However, after playing with the config and a few restarts, everything now seems to be working properly. Really not sure what changed, but thanks for helping.
