Well, it's definitely not a firewall problem. I tried it on hosts in different networks and of course in the same subnet as 
the elog server. As I wrote I tried it with different browsers on different OS and everywhere I had same issues if I used 
newer browsers. So I guess there are interoperability problems between elog and newer browsers.

And by the way if I change ssl = 1 to ssl = 0 there are no problems with any browsers.

But I want to use the ssl feature because security reasons.

Hope Stefan could locate and fix the problem.

Thx

Hi guys,

we configured a kdc server using OPENLDAP as backend. We installed on it elog and configured the Kerberos Authentication on one logbook as follows:

Authentication = Kerberos, File
Kerberos Realm = TEST.COM
Password file = ./pwd.xml

 
Detect language » Italian
 

 

Even if the kinit comand is retrieving correctly a ticket for the user tsearch@TEST.COM(we see it using klist and tcpdump on lo interface), elogd kerberos authentication is not working.

We tried using tcpdump for troubleshooting but no traffic is generated on the loopback interface.

Did someone solve this problem or do you have an idea on how to make the kerberos authentication working?

Thanks

 I have asked for same help, and no one has answered with a solution on implementing a kerberos .  I saw exactly what you were seeing. (did you try fully qualifying the domain within the username field for logon?  \\TEST.COM\username)

I still couldn't get it to work

 Just my two cent:
- did you edit the Makefile to compile elogd with kerberos (USE_KRB5   = 1)?
- did you look into the elogd logfile for error messages at start-up or at login time?
I can only say that I got it working right away - that is the case when you learn least.
Maybe you should post your specific software versions: operating system (in my case Scientific Linux 5.1 (Boron)), Kerberos version (klist -V), etc.

 I'm having same issue. Kerberos is working on Apache on same ubuntu 12.04 server. I used the USE_KRB5 option for compiling elog.

Does anyone  have an idea to solve that problem?

Hi, we are using ELOG for keeping track of a server maintainance.  I've
translated some of ELOG's strings.  The file is attached.  There will be
more translations, when I get inspired again ;-)

Thanks to Recai Oktas, who encourage me to complete the Bulgarian
translation for the Debian elog package, the Bulgarian translation is
completed and attached.
icon5.gif   Protect Selection page=1, posted by Ocane on Wed Jun 20 14:02:45 2012 

 Hi,

I have several top groups and each has several logbooks.

If I use the global option Protect Selection page=1 and Show top groups = 1, after an user logs in to the top group selection URL, the elog steers away from the top group selection page, and automatically brings him to the logbook selection page of the first top group. Is the elog programmed to exhibit this behavior?

What I would prefer is that, after an user logs in, the elog stays on the top group selection page, sine each user has his preferred destination, not always the logbooks in the first top group. Is there any setting I can use in the config file to do this? 

(My users need to access different top groups and logbooks on regular basis).

Thank you and regards.

icon1.gif   Application failed to initialize properly, posted by Norm on Sat May 18 17:41:51 2013 

I attempted to install the newest version of elog on our site elog server from an old old version.  Around 2008 I believe.  I then received an application failed to initialize properly 0xc0150002 after installing the newest version.  I then tried installing the Feb 2013 version and received the same message.  Panicked, I rolled back our server to its state yesterday.  I would like to update our elog software, anyone know why I am receiving this error??

 Hi Norm. I have not much experience with windows, but I can give you my two cent on how to proceed:

  • Check the old elogd version. It is shown at the bottom of your elog web page (this forum shows ELOG V2.9.2-2475).
  • Copy your logbook data to a different PC, maybe your office PC.
  • Then compile the latest elog on your office PC, run it with the copied data and access it as http://localhost:8080 (or whatever port number you are using)
  • If it is still crashing: re-compile it using "make debug" and run it from a debugger (I don't know any C-debugger for Windows). Post the precise error message.

Good luck!

 Thanks for the reply.  I just got back from a business trip and I will try this ASAP.  Thanks and I will be posting the error message.
