Probably people have to log in to the logbook before opening the form. I guess the "submit not allowed" comes from the fact that they access the logbook as a guest.

Dear Stefan,

that is strange since I logged in ... 

It seems like when I go in the shift check topic in the elog, it does not get my login id ... is there something coming from the HTML file that should be set in order to get the login from elog ?

see in the attached image : I am logged in but I still need to feed the Author item. And even If I fill it, 

And then if I Click on new to write a new filling form, author is not filled as you could see on the second image "Author ?"  ...

so I don' see from where appears the problem

Dear All,

Just want to come back to this issue I faced.

In the config file, I call an html form to format input. The way I call the html file inside my config file is described below.

My point is, even if I am already logged in, each time I try to submit an html form, it sais I am not logged in ...

please refer to the corresponding form to see the screenshots.

Many thanks

Hayg

When you log in manually to a logbook, a session ID is created and stored in a cookie "sid". On your shift check list you need some code to copy this session ID into your current form. In the code form 2010, I used "unm" and "upwd", but this was removed since it's not safe. So now you need somethign like:

<input type="hidden" name="sid" id="sid">

and

document.getElementById('sid').value = get_cookie('sid');

in your init code.

I haven't tried that in the past 12 years so no guarantee that it should work.

i've installed the debian package on my system

there's only one config file, /etc/elog.conf

i've tried to change the language, in [global] with Language = german,

then restarting the daemon,  but it doesn't work.

please help me, where can i change the default(all) language and which settings should i do.

thx a lot

I'm not maintainer of the Debian package, you should direct your question to Recai <roktas@omu.edu.tr> (in principle he should read this forum). If you start elogd manually with the strace command like:

strace -r -o tmp.log -e trace=open /usr/local/elog/elogd

and check in tmp.log from where elogd opens its elogd.cfg. Then change the appropriate elogd.cfg (NOT elog.conf). After you change it, you have to restart elogd.

in the trace is only one config file

     0.000103 open("/etc/elog.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
     0.000047 open("/etc/elog.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
