How many topgroups can be defined?, posted by Exaos Lee on Sat Jan 13 17:35:45 2007 
|
I defined 6 top groups in my cfg file as the attachment.
But ... It doesn't work as I wanted.
The 4th and 5th groups need login. But when I clicked the 4th or 5th group, the login isn't needed.
And the 4th and 5th password files are not generated automatically. |

Synchronization using https, posted by Alexandre Lindote on Thu Jan 18 16:29:43 2007

Hi,
I have an elog server running on a linux desktop machine inside our institutional firewall. It can be accessed from inside the firewall directly using http, but users from outside have to use https, with apache (and its ssl module) controlling the access.
I also set up another server on my laptop, just for backup purposes, and synchronized it inside the firewall (using a direct http connection). No problems there!
Now we want to have several servers set up (in different institutions), and have them synchronized automatically. For this I installed elog on a mac server (in another institution, so outside our firewall), also accessible only through https (again using apache).
I configured all the required mirror settings, but always get an error: "Remote server is not an ELOG server".
I've tried changing the status of the 2 machines (server-client), but get the same error...
I also tried different approaches for the Mirror server parameter, like
https://the.remote.server
https://the.remote.server:443
http://the.remote.server:443
but no luck...
Running elog with the -D flag off issued this message:

This server could not verify that you

credentials (e.g., bad password), or your
browser doesn't understand how to supply
the credentials required.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at shalott.pp.rl.ac.uk Port 80

The servers have user level passwords, and I'm mirroring with Mirror user parameter set to the administrator...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Synchronization works such that the "client" elogd (the one on which the synchronization is started) "emulates" a browser and accesses the other elogd server. Since SSL is not built into elogd, it can only use the http protocol, not https. If you want secure synchronization, the only chance you have is to make a SSH tunnel on which you run the http protocol for synchronization. |
Would it be possible to use rsync to syncronise two elogd servers on different servers via secure synchronization on the file level?
E.g.
rsync -av -e ssh /var/lib/elog/logbooks/ elog.remote.de:/var/lib/elog/logbooks/ |

About Extendable, posted by bob on Tue Feb 13 15:57:25 2007

Hi,
I have a problem and I do not understand why
my config is
"
{tdl} Show Attributes = De, He, Auteur, Ten, TDL
{tdl} Options TDL = de, fr, gt
{tdl} Extendable Options = TDL
"
I play with {tdl}, i add TDL (toto),
and after that, i open my config:
"{tdl} Show Attributes = De, He, Auteur, Ten, TDL
{tdl} Options TDL = de, fr, gt, toto, toto
{tdl} Extendable Options = TDL
"
And my preview is wrong !!
why 2 * toto thus?
thanks a lot

Required and {}, posted by bob on Wed Feb 14 16:46:27 2007

Hi,
I still have a question,
is it possible to use : Required and {}
here my program :"
.
{run} Required Attributes = Date evenement, Heure evenement, ...
{run} Show Attributes = Date evenement, Heure evenement, ...
.
.
.
{etuvage & ANS} Required Attributes = Date evenement, Heure evenement, ...
{etuvage & ANS} Show Attributes = Date evenement, Heure evenement, ...
"
generally, can one handle "Required" and "{}" or "{ , }", ...
in any case for me, that does not go
this is normal ??
Thanks

Setting From: for registration/password e-mails, posted by Ben Waugh on Fri Feb 16 12:08:19 2007
|
We had a problem, as mentioned in the documentation, with "new password" e-mails being rejected because the default From: address is invalid, so we changed this using "Use Email From".
According to the documentation, "By default, the email address of the currently logged in user is used for the "From:" field. If no user is logged in, or the current user has not specified a email address in the password database, the setting of the option Use Email From is used for the "From:" field."
However, when an address is specified in "Use Email From" we find that all e-mail notifications, even those sent automatically when a logged-in user submits a log entry, are sent from this address.
How can we set a valid address for use for "change of password" or registration e-mails, but still use the appropriate user's e-mail address for log entries? |

Preset of a drop-down box entry with a "%" character, posted by Tobias Bagger on Sun Feb 18 10:51:13 2007
|
How do I preset a drop-down box entry which contains a % character?
I use following lines in the elogd.cfg:
Options list->ta = K - 0%, S - 10% (text a1), F - 20% (text a2)
Preset list->ta = K - 0%
The documentation says:
If a preset value is given for an attribute which has an options list, the preset value is selected in the drop down box by default.
But this doesn't work for me. I also tried
Preset list->ta = "K - 0%"
Preset list->ta = K - 0%%
Preset list->ta = K - 0\%
without success. What's the right way to do this?
Best regards
Tobias |
