Yes. Of course runs will not be started/stopped when mhttpd is not running, but when you restart it gracefully continues where it stopped, since all variables |

Since several projects at PSI need MSCB but not MIDAS, I decided to separate the two repositories. So if you

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:
