I just typed a long text into this elog, clicked "submit" and it bombed with "you must select an Icon", returned me to the editor with all my text gone gone gone. I do not want to select icons, I just want to report a problem with elog. Well, 2 problems, now.

elog keeps recreating preview .png files?, posted by Kontantin Olchanski on Wed Aug 4 23:52:08 2010
|
Hi, I rsync an elog database from CERN to TRIUMF every few months and I notice that rsync keeps copying preview files (xxx.png.png, xxx.gif.png, etc) from very old entries. I guess that elogd creates these files from scratch each time they are needed, overwriting any previously existing preview files. This creates extra rsync network traffic and rsync takes longer to complete. Is there any way to avoid this? K.O.

Elog v2.7.8 does not show substituted attributes while editing or replying, posted by Dennis Seitz on Thu Aug 19 22:58:45 2010
|
Since we updated to 2.7.8 we've found a problem.
Previously, when we used
Subst on reply subject = Re: $subject
The new "Re: " text would appear in the "subject" field while the user was editing their reply, and they could edit or delete it.
Since 2.7.8, however, it does not appear while editing, but shows up only after the user submits their entry. We would prefer that this appears while the user is editing, because in some cases we want the users to have the option to modify this text. Was this intentional? Is there a way to restore the previous functionality?
Thank you! |
honor "user" field in the Apache SSL request object or environment variables in SSL process groups?, posted by Owen LaGarde on Wed Aug 25 02:49:44 2010
|
Will elog defer user identification and authorization to the ssl engine of a *local* Apache proxy? I'd like to try elog in a site that requires the service port positively authenticate and identify users via smartcard certificate ID. Per SOP they have Apache+mod_ssl setting SSLUserName=SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN which sets both the SSL request object's "user" field and the REMOTE_USER environment var relative to the mod_ssl's session's process group leader. Users auth with Apache's mod_ssl as a single-signon replacement for web apps which have traditional native, internal user accounts/passwords, but those passwords are subsumed by the Apache/smartcard/mod_ssl setup. The web apps define internal accounts matching the users' cert IDs but do not allow any management of the [unused] passwords. Can elog do this? |

How to make Subst run?, posted by Robert Heine on Thu Aug 26 15:37:20 2010

Dear colleagues,
I tried to get an Subst <attrib> = $shell(<command>) to work and put this into a Preset text line, like e.g.:
Attributes = subject, ...
Options <name> = test{1}, ...
Subst myvar = $shell(dir)
{1} Preset subject = Test
{1} Preset text = $myvar
Which results in an ELOG-entry having printed "$myvar" in its body instead of the expected substitution. Changing the Subst command to: "Subst myvar = $host" or even to "Subst myvar = Test" also resulted in printing just the string "$myvar" into the submitted Elog-entry. - What am I doing wrong?
Best whishes

SQL Database, posted by lance on Thu Sep 2 10:30:14 2010
|
We have been running elog for a few years now and its solid. The only thing is we are getting to 140k entries over a few books and its starting to slow down whist searching. My questions is can we go to an SQL type database rather than a flat file? Is it worth it? Is anyone running this type of configuration? |
