Re: [EP-tech] Black overlay covers half of the webpage

OK - there is something else making the duplicated lightbox.

I'm sure this has come up previously on the tech list, but I can't find any mention of it now.

 

In the _javascript_/auto-3.3.15.js file, the following line initiates the lightbox:

document.observe('dom:loaded', function () { new Lightbox(); });

 

Either there is another line also adding a 'new Lightbox();', or somehow the 'dom:loaded' event is being triggered twice.

 

In the screenshot you have the browser development tools open. Do you know how to use this to debug _javascript_?

If so, you could try and see what is calling the Lightbox code.

 

Cheers,

John

I have one file [EPRINTS_ROOT]/archives/[ARCHIVEID]/cfg/static/_javascript_/auto/90_local.js, but I'm guessing that comes with eprints, plus the file only contains a comment with some instructions.

Hi,

I think what you're seeing is part of the 'lightbox' functionality.

You can see the repeated

<div id="overlay"…>

<div id="lightbox"…>

<div id="overlay"…>

<div id="lightbox"…>

in the screenshot you sent.

For some reason, the lightbox is being set up twice, but only the first overlay (which is the black box) is being hidden.

 

Do you have any custom _javascript_ in [EPRINTS_ROOT]/archives/[ARCHIVEID]/cfg/static/_javascript_/?

 

Cheers,

John

Subject: [EP-tech] Black overlay covers half of the webpage

 

Hi,

 

I'm trying to migrate eprints from a server with ubuntu 10.04.4 and eprints 3.3.7 to a new server with ubuntu 16.04.03 and eprints 3.3.15. I did the migration as described here: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Moving_a_repository, but i also ran this command "./bin/epadmin update myrepo" after "./bin/epadmin upgrade myrepo".

 

I set up a temporary domain to test the migration and when I visited the webpage, about half of the page was black. I realised that the eprints configuration file (cfg/cfg.d/10_core.pl) still had the original domain set, not the temporary one, so I changed it with "./bin/epadmin config_core<archivename>", generated the new webpages and the black overlay disappeared. 

 

The server is behind a proxy, so I generated a certificate on the proxy and enabled HTTPS. Now the black overlay reappeared and I can't get rid of it. I attached a print screen to this email for more details.

 

Does anyone know what causes the black overlay to appear and how can i get rid of it?
