Ah well it looks like this was in the zipping code which preceded the new code that Tom implemented recently, to remove some dependency...

Hmmm, we really need to get to the bottom of that session id problem. Does it do it in every browser?

Yeah sorry the xyz... was just my representation of a series of numbers
followed by .zip

My test of the latest code was on xampp only. I'll test again but Julian has
also reported session id not set issues.

Cheers
Ron

I've not really seen any session issues on a windows install and on xampp
mainly though. Have never seen the invalid templat id error either...

the example_zipper_new... file seems to be related to old export code
(https://code.google.com/p/xerteonlinetoolkits/source/browse/trunk/modules/x
erte/export.php?spec=svn696&r=696) with _xyz on the end nothing shows in
Google but remove _xyz and you get hits...

Never seen 'invalid template id'. But 'session ID not set' is doing my head
in.

I don't recognise 2.

Hi all
I think an issue I mentioned in the thread entitled testing results got lost
in the discussion about re-running setup so I'm checking again along with a
separate issue I've noticed.

Issue 1
I downloaded xertetoolkits_2.1 Version:2.1 Last update  2014-03-14 from the
community site and from my testing this revision is not reliable e.g. one
minute I can create an LO and the next minute I get one of two errors when
trying to create a new lo:
Session ID not set
or
Invalid template_id (could not find in DB)

Q. Does this not happen for others?

Issue 2
In an older revision that I've been using which seems to be relatively
trouble free I've noticed that one or more files named something like
example_zipper_new_xyz. is getting created and included in any successful
export but also still residing in the project folder on the server.

Q. Does anyone recognise this? Was it fixed in a later revision that doesn't
have the session issue above?

Cheers
Ron
