Hello,
I'm new to elog. I've installed it under Slackware 11. Everything worked smoothly until I wanted to establish access control. I followed the steps described under Access control heading in Syntax of elog.cfg chapter. I specified a new password file name and the following steps with no problem. After having created a new user I stopped elogd and added Admin user to config file. And here is my problem - each time I want to login to elog, I get "Invalid user name or password!" message. The meaning of it is obvious. So I have repeated all the steps several times. Of course I paid attention to enter user name and password correctly but I can't get rid of this message. For sure I making something wrong, but what it is ?
Here is part of my elogd.cfg:
[global]
Port=8080
Logfile = elogd.log
Logging level = 3
Password file = passwd
Self register = 1
Admin user = eloga
charset = utf-8
Here is what happens after elog restart:
elogd 2.8.0 built Oct 22 2010, 11:04:31 revision 2313
Falling back to default group "elog"
Falling back to default user "elog"
Falling back to default group "elog"
Falling back to default user "elog"
ImageMagick detected
Indexing logbooks ... Converting password file for logbook "Demo" to new encoding ... ok
done
Server listening on port 8080 ...
Here is the password file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- created by MXML on Wed Nov 24 13:13:43 2010 -->
<list>

<email>Mariusz.Stakowski@asseco.pl</email>
<email_notify/>
</user>
</list>
And here is what I found in elogd.log file:
24-Nov-2010 13:50:06 [] Server listening on port 8080 ...
24-Nov-2010 13:50:53 [eloga@xx.xx.xx.xx] {Demo} LOGIN user "eloga" (attempt)
Could somebody help me please ?
Best regards

Hi,
I have two logbooks based on the same data directory through "Subdir" option and when I add new
entry in one logbook, then that entry is not visible in other logbook.
I suppose it is a bug in el_submit function, where I think the new message should be added to
message index of every logbook based on the same data directory as the one, where the message was physically
created.
There is a piece of code, which I think should do this automatically
/* if other logbook has same index, update pointers */
but it seems the other logbooks does not have the same index.
I'm new to elog and the sources are also new to me, so my guess to the ground of the problem may be wrong.
Let me know is this bug possible to fix in near future.
Best regards,
Jacek |
Since the way ELOG works has changed in version 2.2.0 (show message list as
default view), the configuration file elgod.cfg for this site became
slightly simpler. The usual "Start page = ?cmd=Search" is not necessary any
more due to the changed default view. The commands displaying the last x or
last x days of messages are still working, but depreciated, since the "Show
last xxx" facility takes care of that. The default menu commands have been
change which reflect the modified default view. The single elog page now
has a "back" link instead the find result page.
