Hello,

The elog security suits me just fine: the content is not available unless users have logged in, and as administrator I have complete control over who that is and what their privileges are. I can easily share somewhat sensitive notes, plots, and findings without making them completely open to the world. 

I have a project which generates html pages, which I'm also not really supposed to make public to the world.  I'd rather not resort to attaching them to elog entries.

Could the elog security be extended to control access to other files I put on the server? 

Thanks,

If you don't want  to make elog attachments, don't use elog at all. Just use a simple web server like Apache. Most web servers have some mean to protect certain web pages with passwords etc.

I wondered if there was a config line that enabled/disabled the forward and backward navigation keystrokes that were implemented in 2.7.0?

The current definitions (Control-PgUp/PgDown/Home/End) interfere with those keys I use to navigate between tabs in Firefox.  It'd be nice if they could either be turned off.. or redefined.

They are defined in

<ELOG directory>\scripts\elcode.js

Just go to the browse(evt) function and redefine or remove them there. 

 Got it to work as desired.

Thanks for your help and your quick response.

Hi,

I have a user on our system who keeps getting shut out - she can register, but after a few days her login always stops working. The only thing that I can see that's different about her is that her email address has a hyphen in it (firstname.last-name@stfc.ac.uk). I have tried registering myself with a hyphenated email address, and the same thing happens. Any idea what might be going on here? Is eLog doing some sort of automatic cleanup after a day or two, and rejecting a confirmed email address because it's got a hyphen in it?

Thanks

Ben

Hi Stefan,

I have noticed a problem when closing multiple log entries i.e entries which have more than 10 threads. I use Select -> Click the box that appears next to the thread I wish to close -> Edit.

As soon as I click on Edit the elogd service crashes and Windows displays an error message window. The only work around has been opening up all the threads and individually changing the "Status" to Closed. 

Forgive me if this issue has been raised before but I have looked throughout the Forum and could not see anyone experiencing the same problem.

Thanks

Cliff

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce your error. In my test set-up it works fine, so it might be related to your configuration. Can you send me your config file, a zip with the needed logbook entries (xxxxxxa.log files), and a recipe what to click exactly in what order.
