| nick | nick@nick.com | Bug report | | | Problems with 2.3.2 |
Ive just installed the RPM of Elog 2.3.2 and ive found a bug relating to
port bindings, basically im running elog bound to port 81 and when i
install the new RPM it refuses to bind to this port, i tried port 8080 and
that worked fine
Any ideas ? |

Operator error. Figures!
Elog has worked fine for a log time then I upgraded and added stunnel at the
same time. A case of not seeing the forest for the trees.
Thanks for the help.

This is due to a change we had to do in the redirection of the pages. If you
submit a page, the result is a redirection using the HTTP
statement "Location: ..." inside the header. While this was a relative link
in the previous versions, we changed this into an absolute link, which then
agrees with the standard. But since elgod does not know if it runs
under "http:" or "https:", you have now to add the line
URL = https://your.server:port
into elogd.cfg. I will add this note into the documentation.

I'm using elog 2.3.1 on redhat 7.1 and using stunnel to redirect from port
443 to 8080. When I try to add a new record (click submit) https:// in the
browser gets changed to http://. I ve tried three browsers all with the same
result. If I go into the address field and change it to https:// after
getting a 404 error it works. The record gets posted. |

Thanks.

Where did you see the password? Was it on this logbook or on your own? Did
you use "self register" equal 3 or 2? The password should never be visible
in plain text, so after you submit it (during registration or login), the
page gets immediately redirected since the password is contained in the
URL. After the redirection, it is not visible any more. Now it might happen
that the redirection takes a few seconds, depending on the network speed,
then you see it for this few seconds. But in an intranet installation, this
should not happen.

Yes, if you upgrade, the new version will again to into /usr/local/elog
unless you tell "rpm" to relocate the package. Unfortunately I'm not a
specialist with "rpm", but you might figure it out yourself (just try to
reinstall the same version and look where the files go wiht "rpm -ql elog"). |
