[Xerte] XOT bug when exporting LO's based on Multiple Perspectives and Media Interactions templates + short term fix

[Ron Mitchell]

Hi Julian/Pat

Hope ALT-C is going well.

I'm reporting this now while I have time to do so but I know you're at the
conference so have identified a manual fix for now....

 

Someone from an organisation I support reported having trouble with
exporting LO's based on the Multiple Perspectives whereby the pre-loader
appears but doesn't display the LO. However the same LO works fine when
viewed via toolkits. I did some testing and to eliminate the particular
installation being used by testing again with a recent localhost install and
the same issue arises. I'm guessing this hasn't cropped up before because
these two templates are used less than the main template and also the
problem only arises when the LO's are exported. The exported LO's from these
two templates are looking for xml files named differently to those exported.
Details as follows:

 

Multiple Perspectives

Basically the exported learningobject.rlt file is looking for data.xml but
the exported file is named template.xml 

Short term fix rename template.xml to data.xml in the exported directory

 

Media Interactions

In this case the learningobject.rlt is looking for mediaInteractions.xml but
the exported file is named template.xml

Short term fix rename template.xml to mediaInteractions.xml in the exported
directory

 

Not sure if this is some renaming code not working properly but like I say
these are results tested with the current toolkits download (site not
repository)
