Hello,

we used Admin and write passwords. Now this is no longer supported in ELOG 2.9.0 and I tried to change to File or Kerberos Autentication. But nothing worked. I tried the following lines in elog.cfg

[Serverlogbuch]
Authentication = File
Password file = C:\Program Files\ELOG\logbooks\Serverlogbuch\pwd.txt
Self Authentication = 1

So the self Autentication site opens and I can put in all informations. But if I click on save he tries to save the information in the password file and after a time he stops and Internet Explorer says that the page cannot be reached.

The file is not saved. If I remove the 3 lines the logbook opens without any problems.

I tried also kerberos but it didn't work. But there I think some entries in the krb5.ini are wrong.

Would you please help solving the File password problem?

Best Regards

Michael

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!

Hi,

I have logbook A and logbook B.  Is it possible to move one type of entries in logbook A to logbook B?  If yes, may I know how you do it?  Thank you.

Is there a limit on the number of conditions that can be simultaneously active in a log?  When I activate more than 10 conditions I start to see side effects with other conditions being deactivated.  I think this is due to the hard-coded array size of 10 for clist in the match_param function in elogd.c.  If so, could this limit be increased?  

Are there other limits on the number of conditions, or the length of condition names?  If I've understood the code right, the _condition string holds a comma-separated list of the active conditions, so the 256 byte length of this will also put some limit on the number of conditions that can be active.

In a configuration with elog running (8080) under Apache (80) [as explained in admin guide], what is the syntax for tunnelling in with ssh, of both the ssh command and the browser locator?

Hello,

I'm not able to authenticate to a logbook using my text based browser links, so I've started investigating with wget hoping solving the problem one will lead to a solution for the other.  I've seen some examples on how to use wget to parse logbook entries in this forum, but my attempts keep returning the login page.  Any advice would be helpful and appreciated.  Here are a couple of the command line arguments I've tried:

wget --save-cookies cookie.txt --keep-session-cookies -d "http://hostname/LOGBOOK?unamee=YYY&upassword=XXX" -O elog.txt

wget --save-cookies cookie.txt --keep-session-cookies -d --post-data="redit=&uname=YYY&upassword=XXX&remember=1" -e robots=off "http://hostname/LOGBOOK" -O elog.txt

After these executions, my cookies.txt file remains empty.  Running subsequent command with "--load-cookies=cookies.txt" still points me to the login page.

Many Thanks,

Chris 

 I'm having some confusion with configuring my logbook.  In the global section of the logbook I have the quick filter enabled, but it is not a drop down list, only an editable text field:

I think it is an attributes issue, but I'm having some trouble making sense of those from the syntax page.  Here is my config file:

[global]

port = 8080

usr = vulcanstaff

Max content length = 1073741824

Menu commands = New, Edit, Delete, Reply, Find, Last day, Move to, Copy to, Import, Help

RSS Title = $subject, posted by $author on $entry time

RSS Entries = 10

Quick filter = Date, Subject, Subtext

Use Lock = 1

Reverse sort = 1

Required Attributes = Author, Subject

[Experiment_Logbook]

Theme = default

Comment = Experiment Logbook

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Type, Category, Subject

Options Type =  Other

Options Category = Start Up

Extendable Options =Category

Page Title = $Subject

Hello, I have

authentication = kerberos

kerberos Realm = xxx

I ran tcpdump and know elogd server did attempt to contact kerberos server. I could run kinit username@realm_name, and klist shows my ticket fine. 

I receive "kerberos error 256: Decrypt integrity check failed. Please check your kerberos configuration" when I entered my password wrong purposely on login page.

I receive "Invalid user name or password!' when I entered my correct password. 

Please advise.
