The Internet Logbook is broken in version 10.65 and all recent versions
going back to something like 10.56 or even earlier. (It is not widely used
so not often tested).

But there is a little news--both good and bad.
The good news is that the 10.66 beta version has been shown to work with
WL's Internet Logbook servers. The bad news is that it only works with
pretty much the exact versions of Tomcat, SOAP, and all the other packages
described starting here: http://www.writelog.com/InternetLogbook.htm

I have spent some time in the past few weeks trying to upgrade both the
WriteLog client-side and server-side components that are current (or at
least close to current) but the Microsoft SOAP kit that is compatible with
the earlier than .NET technologies (i.e. the rest of WriteLog) refuses to
talk to the latest versions of tomcat and its SOAP server. I will probably
fiddle with this some more and come up with something a little easier to
install, but for now there is nothing new.

I can't say when the 10.66 beta will become widely available. But it has
been in test for a couple of weeks.
