> I saw in the doc that an attribute cant be bigger than 100 char. but I couldn't figure the maximum size for options...  I'm wondering if the issue comes from the browser not refreshing correctly or if its elog..

The number of possible options is limited in elog to 100. This is defined by MAX_N_LIST in elogd.h. You can try to increase it and recompile elogd, but no guarantee that this works.

The reason that it *sometimes* work is really a bug, I should do better limit checkings...

Hi Christof,

thanks for the patch, I merged it into the current HEAD.

Hi Stefan,

 

When we use Webserver authentication, we have the correct username already in the variable http_user.

The old way of copying this http_user to "user" is wrong since we don't use the size of http_user.

Instead, just encode the http_user variable directly.

See attached patch against git HEAD.

I implemented it, but actually called it Logout to URL = <URL>

Hi Stefan,

I am happy to see that you include the webserver authentication.
So I can now login at some other page and then access elog.
However, I would also need some means of logging out some where else.

For this I propose a new Configuration option "Logout to page" which redirects to another page if set and "Logout to main" is 0.

See the attached patch (against git HEAD)

 

Does this make sense to you ?

Hi Stefan,

I see that you've updated the elog running this forum today, 5 versions after you reported fixing the "A new elog entry has been entered" and "An old elog entry has been updated" issue.  But the emails coming out are still all of the "An old elog entry...", rather than "A new..."

David.

I fixed both issues, now resubmitting an entry or submitting a new entry both yields "New LEOG entry".

Hi,

I updated an old elog entry and resubmit it as new by checking the box resubmit as new.   Does the subject line should said it is a "New ELOG entry" instead of "Updated ELOG entry"?  Thank you.

Also when some people submit a new elog, the subject line is "Updated ELOG entry".  This is a bit odd.  I can't reproduce that bug when I did my test.

Hi Stefan,

The email sent from here had he expected (correct) message "A new ELOG entry..."

Thanks, David.

Also this made it now to the docs. Thanks.

Hi Stefan,

here is a draft of how you could describe the webserver authentication in your docs.
