Hi,

I have found the issue, when I mark at the login page:

Keep me logged in on this computer
for the next 41 days or until I log out

 

I'm not able to login. Only when it is not marked I'm able to login.

How can I diable/hide the part (Keep me logged in on this computer
for the next 41 days or until I log out) from my login page?I

Issue solved: Login expiration = 0

Great, you found it! The original problem is probably related to your cookie handling. If you don't check the "keep me logged it" box, elog generates a temporary cookie, which is used for the duration of your browser session, then the browser discards it. If you theck the box, a persistent cookie is created, which your browser stores in the cookie database and reuses it for the coming 41 days. I believe you have a problem there (persistent cookies not allowed, disk full, whatever...) which does not allow handling of persistent cookies. Try from anohter browser/computer and you will see that it works.

Run the elog command with an additional -v flag (verbose output), and you will see what the elogd server return. It's HTML, but you should be able to see some error message.

Good Afternoon

Im trying to automatically post an entry using information saved in a text file. I have followed the example in the users guide but i always seem to get a error message saying transmission failed. Lets say for instance I have a user named John and his password is Blue and he wants to log into a logbook called home from a textfile the command im using to log a message from the file is

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -u John Blue -l home -a Author=John -m textfile

I cant seem to figure out why i keep getting this error message. I even tried deleting the password file because i thought it might be an authentication issue.

Can anybody assist me please it would be much appreciated.

Regards

This indicates that the username/password is not correct. Can you log in to that logbook in your browser with the username "John" and password "Blue"?

Hi Stephan I got it to work for some reason elog was complaining that my encoding of the message wasnt allowed. I allowed the lognook to allow ELcode and it works perfectly.

Thank you for the help.

No. One file per day was chosen in order to keep the number of files small.
For which purpose would you need such an option?
