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

[Patrick Lockley]

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

	 

	Stuart

	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 :)

	 

	Pat

		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
