Any idea what can cause this behaviour? |
Can you send me your elogd.cfg ?
Have you made sure that the entries do contain some text? The behaviour you describe usually happens if you have entries without any text. |
Well, I guess that causes it. In the summary-view there is no visible text.
I thougt when choosing the full-view the text would appear along with the other attributes.
My config-file is:
================================================================
Theme = default
Attributes = Author, Type, Subject
Required Attributes = Type, Subject
Preset Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Options Type = Question, Configuration, Problem, Info, Other
List Display = ID, Date, Author, Type, Subject
Thread display = $Subject, posted by $Author on $Date
Menu commands = Back, New, Edit, Delete, Reply, Find, Last 10, Change password, Logout, Help
Quick filter = Date, Type
Summary lines = 0
Start page = ?rsort=Date
; alleen eigen messages editen
Restrict edit = 1

That's how it is supposed to be. I tried your config file, added three entries, and got the behaviour documented in the attached images. To me everything looks fine. |
Stefan, the output you see I expected to see with my logbook too but I don't.
I will upgrade to V2.6.0-beta3, perhaps that solves the problem. |

Stefan, I installed V2.6.0-beta3 and there is a (unwanted) difference. The Text field now appears in the summary-view despite the config specifies:
List Display = ID, Logdate, Author, Book, Chapter, Type, Subject
so in my opinion the text-field should not show up here.
Now the full-view indeed shows the complete texts.
I also attached the complete config-file because perhaps I overlook some details.
Another point: there was some discussion about v2.6.0-beta3 being slow.
I have v2.6.0-beta and v2.6.0-beta3 running side by side on the same server and notice also a big difference in speed, beta3 being much slower. |

If you do not want text display in the summary view, add
Summary lines = 0
into your config file.

This is still a mystery to me, since on all machines I try the speed is fine. I'm still waiting for some debugging analysis from users which have this problem. If I cannot reproduce it, I cannot fix it. |
After upgrading to v2.6.0-beta4 everything works fine now.
Thanks for your help |
Author drop-down menu length, posted by Kay Graf on Mon Mar 10 12:15:07 2014
|
I am handling several ELOGs for medium-sized collaborations (scientific experiments) with a large number of authors (~250) and chose to have single-user access and entries for every author - in the config file, the "Options Author"-List contains ~150 name for now.
However, the Author drop-down menu stops after ~100 names - is that a ELOG-webserver hard limit? I checked there is nothing strange in the author names following (no strange character, etc.).
I tested it on Firefox, Chrome, Safari - it does not seem to be a browser issue.
Any help would be highly appreciated. |

Hello Kay,
I had to look it up in the source code: yes, you are right, it is hard-coded in elogd.h
⇄
English (auto-detected) » English
elogd.h:#define MAX_N_LIST 100
You can of course change the limit and recompile.
As an alternative, you could have sub-menus with less than 100 entries (disclaimer: the following is untested example):
Attributes = author_range, author, ...
options author_range = A-K{1}, L-Z{2}
{1} options author = Andi, Bob, Camilla, Dennis, ..., Kay
{2} options author = Lily, Max, Norbert, Oscar, ..., Zeta
Cheers

Hello Andreas,
thanks a lot for your quick reply - both options are valid and working. For simplicity (the author list is generated automatically from a shell script) I opted for the first one.
Best regards,
Kay

User passwords not configurable with loacl passwordfile, posted by KaterKarlo99 on Tue Feb 27 15:11:23 2018

Hi!
Tryed windows an linux version. On booth the "Register new User" dialog is not displaying a password line.
so what password is used for the new user? Further the user can't change his password, because he didn't know the old one.
And if an admin user trys to change the password of an other user, a error is displyed that the old password of the admin user is
wrong and nothing happens with the password of the non-admin user.
elog console (admin user awrzkrz changes the password of testuser1):
GET /demo/?cmd=Config&config=TestUser1&cfgpage=1&admin=1&cfg_user=TestUser1&active=1&new_user_name=TestUser1&new_full_name=TEST+User&new_user_email=test%40heaven.org&cmd=Change+password HTTP/1.1

I'm afraid that there is something wrong because each user will be written with the same (hashed) password to the local password file,
irrespective of the given password within the "new User dialog".
So for instance, every user in my password file lokks like this:
<name>TestUser1</name>
<password encoding="SHA256">3c2QQ0KjIU1OLtB29cl8Fplc2WN7X89bnoEjaR7tWu.</password>
<full_name>TEST User</full_name>
<last_logout>0</last_logout>
<last_activity>0</last_activity>
<email>test@heaven.org</email>
<inactive>0</inactive>
<email_notify/>
</user>
"password encoding" has got the same value for each user after creating them with their own passwords....
That's the main issue i have, because i don't know this password and can't set a known one....
frustrating....
any help would be appreciated

Have you configures user-level access via
password file = anyfile.pwd
Can your elogd server write to that file?
If yes, can you please post your config file?
