[Xerte-dev] Re: Installing multiple XAMPP installs

[Smith, John]

Ok finally got it going so will give the upload.php script a final testing tonight.

One thing that I’ve found though… the templatedetails table doesn’t get the table prefix applied if used… someone know where to fix this?

Yeah it's cool

I will just duplicate the xampp code and put a random variable in

If that doesn't work then I won't bother with it

Please bear in mind we are trying to get things finished for next Friday, not start a load of new stuff. That’s the priority this week and next. I’d rather time went into testing and fixing at the moment, and with that in mind it would be good if the xampp install works cleanly: when I tried this morning, I couldn’t run it: that’s stops other bugs surfacing and getting fixed,

The xampp install could be "trained" to make a developer install.

Let me mangle something tonight

Are we talking multiple code bases and multiple databases?

I just wouldn’t mind being able to quickly setup xerte inside every current version of Moodle just to be sure that what I’ve done works across the board…

Not sure if it’s as simple as having a textbox to include a table prefix? Is there anything else that would need to be different?

Hmm, not sure, but have wondered the same thing as it would be good to have a functioning xampp install and a bleeding edge one.

Hi,

Might be something I’ve overlooked but when you have an xampp install and you create a new one (for example you have /moodle1_9/xerte/ already setup and you want a new site – /moodle2_0/xerte/) it appears that running /moodle2_0/xerte/setup overwrites (or shares) the same database as the initial install.

Is there an easy way to manage this at present or should we allow this in the interface??

This comes from the whole upload.php issue… in trying to test xerte with 1_9, I appear to have overwritten 2_0 and/or even after initial install of 1_9 it would redirect to moodle2_0 for authentication as that was setup prior to 1_9 setup…

Is there an easy way to do multiple installs like this or could/should we have some options with the “XAMPP INSTALL” button to allow multiple installs?
