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

Hi John
is this caused by a secure.xml template causing a duplicate call?

Thanks
Peter

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

    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
    <http://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?
