Hi,

As there is no ELOG available in Epel repository for Rocky9, I tried to install ELOG from https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/RPMS/elog-latest.el7.x86_64.rpm and ended with the below error in Rocky 9.

=======================================

ERROR: The certificate of ‘elog.psi.ch’ is not trusted.

Could someone guide me on how to install Elog in Rocky 9 securely? 

Hi,

I checked the RPM download page and found that there is no RPM available to install ELOG on el8 and el9 based OS.

Can someone upload the RPM for el8 and el9 on the download page of ELOG?

 

Hi Team,

Current configuration

=================

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS

ELOG version: elog/jammy,now 3.1.3-1-1build2 amd64 [installed]

Installation method: apt install elog

Configuration file: /etc/elogd.cfg

LOGBOOKDIR= /var/lib/elog/logbooks}
RESOURCEDIR= /usr/share/elog

I had an ELOG server set up in the Windows server which is authenticated using a Password file. Recently, I have migrated the ELOG server to the Ubuntu server. I installed ELOG from the Ubuntu repository (apt install elog) and copied over the logbook and configuration file from the windows server to the new Ubuntu server. In the server, the configuration file was set to /etc/elog.conf by default. I have modified the init file and set the configuration file to /etc/elogd.cfg (this conf file is copied from the Windows server) which includes all the settings. After moving to the Ubuntu server I would like to authenticate users using the password file and LDAP. Could someone help me how to configure LDAP in my installation style?

The global configuration that is found on my installation is as follows:

###################################

; Global settings

Password file = elog.pwd
Self register = 1
Admin user = a, b,c, d, e, Iafdsel

Suppress Email to users = 1
SMTP host = example.com

Time format = %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S
Date format = %Y-%m-%d

Restrict edit time = 2
Restrict edit = 1

Allow HTML = 1
Max content length = 209715200
Save drafts = 0
###################################

Should I add the below modification (by editing the necessary fields) to the current configuration? Will that make the LDAP and normal password file work?

############################

• Enable LDAP authentication in the Makefile by setting USE_LDAP = 1   (I am not sure if I need to do this in my installation style. If yes, how do i do this?)

• Authentication = LDAP
• LDAP server = ldap://example.org:389
• LDAP userbase = ou=People;dc=example,dc=org
• LDAP login attribute = uid
• LDAP register = 1

​############################
 

Can someone guide me on what changes I need to make for this?

Many Thanks,
Scott

On a new MacBook Pro (Silicon M3), I installed version 3.1.5 build 23df00d9.  The application appears to work normally, except that, after a short while, the indicated attachment count (paperclips in the attachment column of the Summary view) starts to increment fairly rapidly with each time that I visit the page.  Attachment counts appear even for records that don't have any attachments.  When I access records individually, either those with or without real attachments, everything looks OK.  Any insights as to what might be causing this, and how to correct?

Installation went smoothly using the (now longstanding) MacOS installation instructions, with one small exception: When doing the "sudo launchctl load ..." step, there is occasionally an I/O error of some kind.  (Sorry, I don't have an exact transcript of the error at the moment, but it appears to refer to line 5 of a script.)

Many thanks,

Andreas W.

Hi Everybody,

I import a logbook from csv file, with a number for laboratory's notebook, which can be use by multiple intern. I'd like to add a "reply to" when the number is the same, it's like a "move to" but in the same logbook.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Members,

I have compiled and installed ELOG in Ubuntu 22.04. My ELOG version is 3.1.5 revision fc6679b. I would like to use both the password file (../logbooks/elog.pwd) and the LDAP for authentication purpose. In addition to this, new users should be able to register and existing users should be able to reset their password.

Anyone could shed some light on how to do this in the configuration file?

Thanks,
Scott

Hey eloggers,

I am setting up an ELOG to log the cleanroom fabrication in our startup (Luxtelligence SA). The fabrication is structured in different process steps that are performed by several wafers at the same time (each wafer as an ID).

I am looking for an possibility to put a list of several integers as one of the attributes.

Here an example:

Does something like this exsist?

Thanks in advance for your help.
