31 Jan 2014, Stefan Ritt, Info, Separation of MSCB subtree
|
Since several projects at PSI need MSCB but not MIDAS, I decided to separate the two repositories. So if you
need MIDAS with MSCB support inside mhttpd, you have to clone MIDAS, MXML and MSCB from bitbucket
(or the local clone at TRIUMF) as described in

This is interesting. When I used it last time (some years ago...) it worked fine. I did not touch this, and now it's broken. Must be related to some modifications |

12 Feb 2014, Stefan Ritt, Info, Custom page header implemented

As reported in the bug tracker, the proposed header does not work if no specific (= different from the default 60 sec.) update period is specified,
since then no cookie is present. Here is the updated code which works for all cases:

Just read elog:908, it tells you to put this into a file, name it header.html for example, and put into the ODB:

I agree that this should be removed, Unfortunately I'm away right now, so I will fix it next week. Also will put in

07 Mar 2014, Stefan Ritt, Suggestion, runlog is "ugly"
|
I put mhttpd.css and mhttpd.js into the ODB, so every experiment can change it. I put also Andreas' modifications of the CSS file for the runlog table and
committed the changes.

[quote="Andreas Suter"]I stumbled over a problem which I cannot pin point and would appreciate suggestions.
I set up an experiment, and all of a sudden I noticed the following behaviour.

We have similar demands, and we solve it in the following:

14 Oct 2014, Stefan Ritt, Bug Report, Hostile network scans against MIDAS RPC ports

Doing this through the ODB seems ok to me. If the ODB cannot be accessed, you can fall back to no protection.
At PSI we fortunately do not have these network scans because PSI uses a institute-wide firewall. So you can connect from outside PSI to inside PSI only |
