[Xerte] Can't save work in browser based Xerte

Tue Nov 18 11:11:16 GMT 2008

Hi Stuart,

We have some moodle code to test as well, but it is most likely a
session setting.

What I would do as well as trying the new code is to empty the
logindetails, templatedetails and folderdetails tables from your
install.

Thanks

Pat

	Thanks, I will try this new code.

	I am using the Xampp installation that is built into the moodle
install, not a standalone version of Xampp. I am assuming this should
still work for Xetre as ultimately it is still Xampp, so long as I take
the path differences into account. For example instead of the Xerte
toolkits folder being in C://xampp/htdocs it is in
C:\moodle\server\moodle.

	It seems to be working here ok apart from the problems I have
been informing you of.

	Thanks

	Stuart

	Hi Stuart,

	a php info page is 

	any php page with the following in

	<?

	phpinfo();

	?>

	XAMPP has one available from its control panel (usually
http://localhost/xampp/).

	It basically dumps all your php settings to the screen

	I've modified demo slightly (the original version generates a
new user id each time - this version below will mean everyone who uses
demo.php will get the same files).

	 $_SESSION['guest']==true;

	 $_SESSION['firstname'] = "Guest";

	 $_SESSION['surname'] = "User";

	 include $site->php_library_path . "database_library.php";

	 include $site->php_library_path . "user_library.php";

	 $mysql_id=database_connect("index.php database connect
success","index.php database connect fail");   

	 $_SESSION['login_ldap'] = "GuestUser";

	So these are the new lines 17-29.

	Hope this helps

	Pat

		Here is my demo.php file attached. I have renamed it
since, but the code structure hasn't changed

		I am not as technical as some so am in the dark a little
with this xampp and permissions stuff.

		When you say run a php info page, what exactly do you
mean? 

		Cheers

		Its still in beta, so your errors are almost certainly
my code misbehaving.

		However, "You don't have sufficient rights for this
template" is caused, usually by the session id expiring (assuming you
are running demo).

		The 1--Nottingham suggests your session id isn't being
set properly as well.

		usually the name of the folder in USERFILES is <<id
number>>-<<creator id>>-<<template type>>

		COuld you email me your demo.php so I can see what
you're setting.

		Also, could you run a php info page to make sure your
PHP install has sessions installed.

		Thanks

		Thanks for the quick response.

		I have renamed the demo.php - thanks for the warning.

		I can't access your links. Even though they are on my
own server I am getting: "You don't have sufficient rights for this
template"

		If I keep refreshing my browser I eventually get my old
projects I have created as it seems to have cached them, If I copy the
edit link from the properties dialogue box on one my projects,  it
doesn't work

		For example, the project properties link section tells
me that the link for my project is: MailScanner has detected a possible
fraud attempt from "JavaScript" claiming to be
http://elearn.dewsbury.ac.uk/toolkits/edit_1

		But if I type or copy this into a new browser window I
get:

		in this bit
		Warning:
file_get_contents(USER-FILES/1--Nottingham/data.xml)
[function.file-get-contents
<http://elearn.dewsbury.ac.uk/toolkits/function.file-get-contents> ]:
failed to open stream: No such file or directory in
C:\moodle\server\moodle\toolkits\edit.php on line 173
		You don't have sufficient rights for this template

		Sorry if this is obvious stuff, but I don't have a lot
of experience with setting up servers and permissions.

		Thanks

		Hello,

		1) Please don't advertise the demo link!

		2)MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from
"JavaScript" claiming to be http://elearn.dewsbury.ac.uk/toolkits/play_2
works?

		3)http://elearn.dewsbury.ac.uk/toolkits/play_11

		I just made the bottom one, I am very proud of it :)

			Thanks to the responses to my Xerte installation
problem in Xampp. I have got it working now by installing it from the
live domain address instead of the localhost. 

			It is working at
http://elearn.dewsbury.ac.uk/toolkits/demo.php It seems to work fine,
but I can't save anything I do. Is this because it is a demo only. Is
there a way of saving a project that I create?

			Regards
