Hi Jeff,

Glad you have sorted your login issues.

With regard to your upload issues, what version of IE and Firefox and Moodle are you using? Also, is this a brand new download of XOT v2.1?

Also, are you able to look in the management.php logs to see if you can see a CRITICAL - Session not found during file upload error? IE shouldn't have this issue but I suupose if it's the latest version then some change to the browser string could be causing this...

Thanks, Tom,

Okay, I think I found my problem, I was editing my files with blue griffon, and that was buggering my code. I downloaded and installed notepad++ and edited my auth_config, I am now logged in, still had the upload error with fire fox and IE, but I will work through the developer debug stuff.

Thanks for all of your help, I really appreciate it!

Jeff,

Could you please try the attached file (please make a backup of your version) and place it in library/Xerte/Authentication
(or comment out line 33 of the library/Xerte/Authentication/Factory.php)

and change config.php (of the xerte install) and change line 26: $development=true

If needed, modify line 33 as well, so you will have access to the debug.log file.

And then try Moddle authentication again?

Tom

Tom,

#1 is a true statement "1. Upload doesn't work in IE and Firefox, but it does work in Chrome"

Authentication does not work in any browser (only guest user works)

Integration to config is; (Moodle)

/var/www/environmental/config.php

Root file path:

/var/www/environmental/xertetoolkit/


[cid:_1_0B3536300B352D74004A8A6285257C46]

The auth_config.php file is exactly the way it was at install. Any modifications to it gives the same error as this.
Leaving it as guest is the only option that will work.

John,

I reviewed and tried each different proposed solution, but still no joy,

http://xerte.org.uk/index.php?option=com_kunena&view=topic&catid=4&id=80&Itemid=759&lang=en&limitstart=0

Can you edit and save the LOs and then exit and go back and edit the LO where you left off? If so then your sessions should be working fine.

Yes, I can edit, save, exit and go back in to edit where it left off. So it must not be a session problem.


Thanks for the help, Jeff

Jeff,

I must say that I am a bit confused about what is the real issue.

After rereading, I assume you have two issues.
1. Upload doesn't work in IE and Firefox, but it does work in Chrome
2. Authentication doesn't work in IE and firefox, but it seems to work in Chrome.

You mention that issue 2. bothers you the most, so let's conecntrate on that first:

a. The error is a php exception, so I would really be surprised, if this works in any browser.
Could you please verify that the íntegration_config_path in the sitedetqails table contains the full path to your moddle config file, i.e. /srv/www/htdocs/moodle2/config.php

You can check this directly in mysql, or browse to management.php:
[cid:_4_0B3551780B352D74004A8A6285257C46]

Than check again. If that doesn't work, please verify auth_config.php. If that still doesn't work, plase post the auth_config.php file.

Tom

Do I assume that no one has a solution to the Apache2 Winbind authentication, I can deal with the browser issues by just mandating using Chrome 31 to all of my peers to create the LO, but would really like to work though the authentication.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Jeff

I have a problem I have been trying to solve for the past three weeks, hoping for a little guidance

I cannot upload any images using any version of IE or Firefox

I did try Chrome just to view any JS errors and that uploaded just fine, so I do not believe it is my server settings ??
My IT group seems to think that Chrome is just more standards compliant (whatever that means),


[cid:_1_0B33F0680B352D74004A8A6285257C46]


Here is my setup:

System: Linux a305lv002 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.51-1 x86_64
LMS - Moodle 2.5.2
Moodle authentication -  Apache2 Winbind
Xerte online toolkit (latest version) is installed inside of my moodle diectory

I am assuming this is a session error of some sort, I cannot get xerte to acknowledge any authentication
( I really do not care if I stay a guest user, but our corporate browser is IE)

</head>
<body>authentication_method = 'Moodle';
 //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap';
 //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db';
 //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static';
 $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle";



No matter what method I try, I get this error

[cid:_1_0B33FAB40B352D74004A8A6285257C46]
So I am either looking for a way to pass the authentication, or reset the session, I'm not sure, looking for guidance.

Or do I just need to only use Chrome, since that works?

Thanks for any help,
Jeff
