Apologies that should have been Devrim (autocorrect again) :-(

Hi Stefan,

I'm having a problem with 'Preset Text' now behaving differently in the latest release (2.9.1)?
My config file for example has always had: 'Preset Text = This is a test.', previously 'This is a test' was put
verbatim into the text area, now it seems to think whatever follows 'Preset Text =' is always a file and I end
up with 'File <i> This is a test. <i> cannot be found'?

I did notice a 'Print warning if "preset text" file cannot be found' line in the latest release notes, does this
now mean wherever I have used the method above I will now need to make a text file to match?

I'm using them embedded in conditional attributes if that makes any difference?

Thanks for your help.

 Hi All,

I'm looking for a way (or if it is even possible?) for users to browse between logbooks without being logged out of their current logbook if they click on a logbook they are not authorised to access?
If they accidentally choose the wrong logbook they are forced to log back in again?

No guest access has been configured on any log.

TIA
 

We have about 10 logbooks running on the same Elog that all get fair use. Many people have turned off new entry emails because they were filling up inboxes, but are still interested in what's new. I saw the option to add "?last=1" to the start page, although I'm afraid using it might cause confusion over how to get to the older posts.

I was trying to figure out a way of creating a "digest" of sorts, a list of entry subjects posted in the past day or week, something similar to what's generated by "?last=1?mode=threaded", but for every logbook (similar layout to the selection page with nested logbooks). This could either be a page, or a regular email.

Is there way to generate such a cross-logbook page? What about a scheduled email formatted based on a given filter?

PS: The elog has been invaluable to us, a big thanks to all involved!

 Perfect! I didn't not know there was RSS support. I will probably use something like rss2email, but this is exactly what I needed. Thanks!

I don't remember the details, but originally had the same trouble. I think a "/" at the end of a url got me somewhere. 
I have defined...

URL = http://somewhere.edu/elog

...in the config file, and my redirect looks like this:

Redirect /elog http://somewhere.edu/elog/
ProxyPass /elog/ http://somewhere.edu:8080/
ProxyPassReverse /elog/ http://somewhere.edu:8080/

If I have a couple of attachments in a log book entry, I can link to that entry "http://example.edu/elog/Sandbox/7", I get the appropriate log in page, and after logging it, it takes me to the entry.

However, if I link directly an attachment, "http://example.edu/elog/Sandbox/7/1", I receive a plain log in page that doesn't have the stylesheet applied, and logging in, I am directed to " http://example.edu/elog/Sandbox/7/" which throws an invalid error. If I am already logged in the browser, it links correctly. 

I assume the problem must stem from messed up relative URL somewhere, hence the lack of stylesheet, or from the redirect incorrectly handling the /. (Looking at the source for the two login pages, the only difference is "<input type=hidden name=redir value="7">" versus "<input type=hidden name=redir value="7/1">". ) But that reaches the end of my ability...

This breaks the attachment links in emails.

Any help would be much appreciated!

I'm not of the skill level to help, but for what its worth, running Ubuntu 12.04, used alien to install the latest RPM with only two little snags. I had to create a link from libssl.so.1.0.0 to libssl.so.6, which is a trick I've pulled with other software, not sure what the proper fix is. I also had to make similar changes to the init script.
