[Xerte-dev] Re: upgraded test install error

Hi all,

Sorry, i'm reading these posts but unable to contribute much to them until I get better but read this and thought I should pipe in...

There is an issue with Ubuntu PHP not having JSON included http://www.thedevshack.com/ubuntu-13-10-issue-call-to-undefined-function-json_decode/ so you may want to explore that avenue...

phpinfo should reveal whether its there or not..

Regards,

Please address ALL support requests to hlsblt at gcu.ac.uk where one of the School Learning Technologists will pick up the job. This will ensure that all jobs are completed as promptly as possible.

Yes. There was still a lot of debugging code in upload.php (which tries to write files to the folder <inst>/editor. Perhaps that is what caused it.

Another thing, is that the code works on my OpenSuSE server, but it didn't work on an Ubuntu server.
I am working on it. It has to do with json_decode in that case.

Hi Tom
I can't check right now but I downloaded a copy of the install I was using and set that up via xamp and that now works even with the original upload.php from develop. So although I can't check until tonight thinking about the differences between latest develop code with new editor etc and previous working 2.1 install are there any differences in terms of permissions or server dependencies/settings? e.g. same code works via xampp but not on live server.
Cheers
Ron

Please try this version, and let me know if this works for you.

If not, there will be a number of debugging files in the editor folded of the installation.

Thanks Pat
error reporting is on but I'm not entirely sure what to look for. The log generates a load of lines like
/xot/website_code/php/database_library.php146Running : select login_id from logindetails where username = ?
or ending with select folder_id from folderdetails where login_id= ? AND folder_name = ?
or INSERT INTO templatedetails (template_id, creator_id, template_type_id, date_created, date_modified, number_of_uses, access_to_whom, template_name, extra_flags) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)

are those question marks correct or should there be actual values instead?

Cheers
Ron

BTW are you at FOTE tomorrow at any point?

Ron,
a PHP 500 error suggests a bug in running the php in the page

Try turning on error reporting and hitting the URL directly

Subject: [Xerte-dev] upgraded test install error

Hi has anyone tried an upgrade with the latest develop code?

I guess this might be a question for Tom… I've upgraded a test install and existing projects play ok but using the new editor I can't play or preview or save changes. Via browser console I'm getting the following error:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) http://vle.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xot/editor/upload.php
treeroot: 2 children tree.js:106
ID_3068040163<tel:3068040163>: 0 children tree.js:106

Any ideas?
Cheers
Ron
