Hi John

I can't help with a VM but here's the steps to replicate...

 

1. Create a directory in the web root and copy across an export from the
latest svn trunk e.g. xot19

2. Create a new database and user with the relevant privileges or use the
mysql root account if only a test

3. Browse to /xot19/setup/ and follows the tests or go straight to
/xot19/setup/page1.php

4. During setup add the admin account credentials (whatever you want) and
leave integration_config_path empty

5. Upon completion browse to the xot19 url which by default should be guest
access and create a couple of tests LO's

All should be fine at this point.

6. Visit /xot19/management.php and add the path to moodle config.php

7. Now whether you leave authentication set to guest or change it to moodle
you should see the problem with creating new LO's etc. I'll send a link to a
screencast of that later.

Hi,

 

I had a go at setting up on a Ubuntu VM on VirtualBox at the weekend but ran
out of time and into problems figuring out where to put passwords into the
database using phpMyAdmin, setting up the integration path etc.

 

If someone wants to share a VM which exhibits the problem and share it then
I'll definitely take a look at debugging.

Hi,

 

Starting a new thread on the current issues with the integration path stuff.
I'm afraid my own technical knowledge doesn't go far in the relevant areas,
but it is clear that we have a problem that needs resolving before we can
make the Xenith code available to everyone, and it seems to me that recent
changes have introduced the problem. Ron has done a lot to try and isolate
the problem, thanks a lot for persisting Ron! 

 

Somehow we need to resolve it. I'm open for ideas on how we can best work
through it: in an ideal world I'd get Ron to sit with Pat at a computer
until the problem is cracked, but since that's not possible, is this
something we can do online somehow? Anyone got any better ideas?

 

Julian
