I'm thinking you might be right about the whitespace as that might be why
it's not a problem locally on xampp but is a problem on this Ubuntu server?

 

Will this be a problem whatever file(s) the whitespace is in or are there
key files?

 

Could this have caused a problem with the folder or owner id's in the db?

This is a nightmare!

 

I've looked at those changes to config.php and auth_config.php and removed
whitespace but still the same problem.

I've created a brand new install and have the same problem with that.

I replaced config.php with the version prior to the separation I made on
this new install - still the same problem.

Locally via xampp no such problem.

 

When creating new projects the folders are being created with the correct
username but any new projects are not appearing in the workspace even after
refresh.

 

Nottingham.info is being created in each folder (as well as data.xml,
preview.xml and media - is that correct?

i would guess one new file exists which is outputting whitespace before the
session starts

I would guess when you made auth_thingie it has either whitespace or is
required before session start

I did a clean install from svn locally and all seems ok with that so I'm
going to replace the whole directory apart from user-files and database.php
etc and see whether that fixes it. Going to take a while though :-(

The sessions are screwed. 

I can create new LOs fine, but they aren't created as me, so something is
poorly in the session code somewhere.

Yes everything was ok at that point and is ok on my localhost install too.

 

Have turned on error reporting on http://vle.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xot/ but not
getting any errors messages.

 

Not seeing anything wrong in fiddler either :-(

Had you updated after Pat checked his stuff in last week? i.e. is that what
broke it? I thought you had those issues that led to the config.php being
split discussions, was everything OK at that point?

I've been wasting hours on this now :-(

 

I updated the Techdis install with the latest svn code and now I can't
create new projects.

 

Clicking create pops up the editor window but refreshes the workspace and
then shows an empty workspace.

 

Seems like it's probably a session thing or something but I can't find what.
Trouble is I tried reverting the code back to a previous version and still
got the same problem. So now it's back to the latest code.

 

I can edit existing projects and add to them just can't create anything new.

 

Anyone else had this? 

Is it a consequence of recent changes?

 

Cheers

Ron
