yeah maybe it's cosmic forces!
If it's the session being killed how come the correct username and project id is being created as part of the project folder? It just seems to be the folder value in templaterights that isn't being created. Where is that?

Why am I not getting any errors displayed?

yes, because new template is wiping out the session
refreshing the page recreates it

Just tested that...
set auth to guest
changed guest auth to guest3 so new account
visited with new browser
created a project
project is created but not shown in workspace
checked folder value in templaterights table value = 0
change that to 11 which is correct for guest3
refresh
project appears

Trust me been trying all that and more!
I've certainly changed to guest and closed all browsers and started again but the same problem exists.
I can't reproduce it on xampp either with or without moodle authentication.
It seems to be linked to the folderdetails value in templaterights. When new projects are created the folder value is 0.
If I change it to the relevant value for the user who created it e.g. 5 for guest 2 in this case the projects appear.
Does that help?

You need to remember sessions are created at different times, so if you change code you might need to use a different browser.
It doesn't happen to me using XAMPP locally.
I would turn off moodle auth, set it to guest. Create a guest account that's brand new. Then test it

Thanks for confirming John.
I'm beginning to think this problem has existed since the recent merge but
hasn't been noticed because we've all be testing locally on xampp. I could
be wrong but I've just tried copying all the relevant files from my local
working xampp install to the clean install I've been using on the techdis
server and that same code now running on linux has the same problem of not
properly creating new projects.
Can anyone else test on a linux install?
Pat - any new suggestions?

Cheers Ron.
It's running fine for me under XAMPP... have been able to create a few new
projects without issue...

Hi John
that's my fault :-(
in auth_config.php uncomment guest and comment static.
If you wanted to use static to see how that works the accounts are in
\library\Xerte\Authentication\static.php
I'd be keen to know if you have any problems creating projects?
Cheers
Ron

Hi all,
just did an update and running XOT off XAMMP and now i'm being prompted for
a login. Never had to login before, can someone let me know what the details
are for the USB XOT install?

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

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.

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
