Just a quick update - it's upon attempting to export that template.xml is
getting written back to the user-files folder for this project - any ideas
how/why?

Thanks for the responses Julian/Tom

 

1. Not sure why this has happened in a few places but not a major problem if
it's not happening all the time.

 

2. a. nothing relevant in the error logs so I guess it's not escaping
causing the problem

b. Full archive doesn't work for this project either - just a blank window
when trying to export this particular project

Curiously despite deleting it template.xml keeps getting written back to the
project folder in use-files so there's data.xml, preview.xml and
template.xml can't see why or where that is happening but wonder if it's
linked to the problem?

 

Cheers

Ron

1. The only instance where I expect models etc in the user-files, is when
importing a learning object that does not have a corresponding template  in
the installation.

2. You can verify whther escaping is the culprit in two ways
a. You should see a fatal php error from SimpleXML.load in the log files
b. Full archive export should work (as it doesn't try to read the data.xml)

Hi all

this might be a question for Tom unless others have see either of these
issues too....

 

1. I've notice that some projects in the user-files folder get populated
with folders and files that shouldn't be there e.g. common, languages,
models etc. I haven't been able to identify exactly what causes this. Anyone
seen this and/or got any idea re cause/solution?

 

2. The example of the page 560 LO we've shared and developed on the 1.8 test
install won't export - I just get a blank window when clicking export but
other LO's do export. So I've been testing this with a copy and if I replace
data.xml and preview.xml with xml from a simple LO the project exports. I'm
wondering if there's a particular page type causing the problem or if this
is related to the Issue Tom mentioned about html escaping e.g. there are
lots of < in the xml.

 

Cheers

Ron
