Wen es interessiert:

der Eintrag "eloglang = german" gehoert in das Verzeichnis "usr/lib/elog/resources". Dort wird er von elogd ausgelesen.

 

Wie bitte ist der dorhin gekommen? Normalerweise wird elogd.cfg unter /usr/local/elog gespeichert. Wenn man natuerlich diese Datei von Hand irgendwo andershin kopiert, muss man sie auch dort veraendern, sonst schiesst man sich selbst in's Bein.

Sure. Just remove "Password file = ..." and any guest menu.

How can i configure eLog to be used completely anonymous without the need to log in?

I tried menu and guest menu settings without luck. I do not use password files. With earlier versions this was easy to set up...

 

Thanks in advance

Does not work.

Clean install (debian 8 x64, with aptitude), only thing i've changed in the config is "URL"-parameter (global section) and redirection with Apache. No luck. Edit or delete gives an error "Error: Command "Delete" not allowed", "New" opens login-windows.

Now i removed all (guest) menu and URL settings a use it directly (port 8080), still no luck. "Error: Command "Delete" not allowed". When i click on "New" a login-windows opens.

Tested with the demo-logbook.

Version 2.9.2 is hopelessly outdated. Please upgrade to the current version on bitbucket. You also might have to delete any cookie in the browser sent to the elog server.

Update: I tried switching the logbook to no authentication reqiured, and still get the "command Submit not allowed" response.

I read through a similar report from 2015 (entry #68149), but none of the potential causes seem to be at play here. The logbook is using PAM authentication, and I can log in to the web interface using the same credentials I'm using from the command line. The other case mentioned a dis-allowed encoding format, but my logbook is configured to allow all formats.

 

This is the command line I'm using:

/usr/local/elog/bin/elog -v -h logbook.aps.anl.gov -p 8081 -l On_Call -x -n 2 -a Date='10/19/2020 01:02' Author="David Wallis" Title='Test Upload' Status='Open' System='On-Call' -u 'wallis' '*****'  "This is a test message"

"submit not allowed" you typically get if there is a "guest menu" for read-only access and you are not logged in. I never tried the elog program with PAM authentication, but you said that your turned authentication off. What I would do is to strip down your elogd.cfg to a very simple form until the elog utility works, then figure out which configuration makes the trouble.
