Hello,

Thanks!

I Stefan, it works with the 587 port.

I believe Yanick means the SMTP port, not the port under which elogd is listening. The SMPT port is hard wired to 25, because port 587 was not yet defiend when I wrote that code. I can make this a variable, but only if it works. So Yanick can you test if port 587 accepts normal SMTP commands? We don't have such a new server at our lab and I cannot test it. Under Windows you can open a command prompt and telnet to the mail server:

telnet <server> 587
HELO test
MAIL FROM: test

your server should then reply with "220 ..." and "250 ..." messages. Once this works, I will implement the variable SMTP port.

This is nicely explained in the documentation: https://elog.psi.ch/elog/config.html#global

The following options are specific to the [global] section:

Port = <port>
Specifies the TCP port under which the server is listening. Default is 80. Can be superseeded via the '-p' command line flag.

Good!

so, i've tried to compile but iwonder if i does it correctly,

look at the error i got:

Thanks again!

Stefan Ritt wrote:

Ok, so I added the option

STMP port = xxx

where you can specify 587 to override the default port 25. I committed the changes to bitbucket. Can you compile from sources, or do I have to dig out my dusty Windows PC?

Re: Need to change port 25

I put a new executable for you under https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/windows/

It's named elog314-2.exe

Best,

Re: Need help with permission

Hi all,

I have the same problem on Ubuntu 22.04. I have compiled from the latest tarball and copied all our logbooks from our old Ubuntu 18.04 server to a new Ubuntu 22.04. The logbooks does however not appear when I log in, so I assume ELOG doesn't have read access either?
Any hints on how to set the permissions correctly would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mikkel

Hello,

I have just installed elog onto an ubuntu focal server using <sudo make install> and I am unable to create new entries.

When I access the log via a windows PC connected to the local network, I can see the demo logbook with the 1 test post, but I cannot create or edit anything.

Attempting to post throws the error:

New entry cannot be written to directory "/usr/local/elog/logbooks/demo/"

Please check that it exists and elogd has write access and disk is not full.

Please point me in the right direction to correctly set permissions and create aditional log books.

Thanks,

Dan

Re: Need help with permission

Permissions are handled by the operating system and have nothing to do with elog. Make sure you run elog under an account which has write access to the desired directories. Consult Ubuntu documentation how to do that. Sometimes it's helpful to start elog interactively with the -v flag to see some verbose output. Maybe you can spot something there.

Re: Need help with permission

Sometimes this can also be an SELinux issue, if you have that service running. Try "journalctl | grep denied" to see denied resources and consult the SELinux documentation on how to fix that.

Re: Need help with permission

I used "chown" to pass permissions from root to my deafult user, then restarted the service and now I can make posts. Thank you!

Re: Need for email address in login?

Jeff Kozloski wrote:

How can I skip the need for an email address when registering and logging in? Our IT dept will not give an email address to each guy I want on the log.

I never thought that someone will not have an email address. One basic feature of ELOG is its automatic notification if there is a new entry, and that only works over email. It's like social networks, you cannot register for Facebook if you don't have an email address.

So if you absolutely want to omit this, just give a fake email address, like nobody@no.where. ELOG just checks if there is a "@" and a "." somewhere.
