Hi Vicky
I'll forward your request for email change to someone at Nottingham. I think they normally expect users to do this themselves but I can see why that wouldn't work for you at the moment.

In the meantime I would respond as follows:

1. Does your colleague have direct access to the database and if so I would suggest checking the LDAP table directly to see if the values are being saved/stored.

2. Does the install work ok apart from this e.g. if you switch to guest or static authentication?

3. Near the top of config.php set development to true e.g. $development = true; Does that show any more useful error messages?

4. Is this a local install or an install meant for organisation wide use? XAMPP really isn't the right solution for a production server - ideally Apache, PHP and MySQL should be installed separately.

Sorry I can't offer to provide further direct support on this even though it might be me who responds on the mailing list anyway. I'll post your original question to the list but you mention xerte-dev and xerteforteachers neither of which are the correct location for this - are you also a member of http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte because that's where the question should be posted?

HTH
Ron

Hi Ron

Apologies for contacting you directly...
I was on your first xerte 2.0 course in London on 1st May. I mentioned we'd been having problems with the Xerte2 installation - we still are.
I tried mailing the issue to the Xerte-dev list (see below) but our institution has just swapped all our email addresses so I'm no longer recognised on the Xerte lists database. I have contacted 'xerte-owner at lists.nottingham.ac.uk' re this last week but not had a response as yet.
Could you possibly do me a favour and pass on our technical question (below), or forward my email address change request (below that) to the appropriate person?? I'm being a bit held up..

Apologies yet again, and very many thanks

Subject: Xerte 2.0 installation problem

Please can you offer any suggestions re. the issue my networks colleague is having with LDAP in our new installation...


I am experiencing the following error message whilst trying to use the LDAP function in XOT. The error message is:
"LDAP servers not configured in DB"

The Xampp install has had the LDAP feature enabled and the correct values have been entered into the Site Administration location.
Any ideas?

We are running the latest version of both Xampp and XOT


Thanks very much

Subject: email change

Please can you help.

My institution is in the process of changing everybody's email address. I am currently registered on some of the Xerte mailing lists (xerte-dev and XERTEFORTEACHERS) with the following address:

greavesv at beaumontcollege.org<mailto:greavesv at beaumontcollege.org>

The above email address is still active and I receive these emails, but when I send emails, they go out from this address:

Vicky.Greaves at SCOPE.ORG.UK<mailto:Vicky.Greaves at SCOPE.ORG.UK>

Is there any way I can change my email address on the XERTE database?

Many thanks
