[Xerte] Running content on IIS

[Patrick Lockley]

Hi Sonny,

 

Xerte is a flash app, and as such has limited scope for writing files to
a local machine. 

 

Dave posted something earlier in the week about flash cookies? (shared
objects?), which should be in the list archive
(www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte - then click on community). He might repost
when he notices I am out of my knowledge depth J

 

I am wondering if there is scope to write a zinc play wrapper to provide
some functionality for writing files? Anyone used zinc. This would
involve non-web based deployment however.

Hello Pat

 

Xerte content

 

We have Authorware elearning programmes which save results into a text
file to the local machine, is it possible for Xerte to do the same, as
we can only get flash to email and not write to a text file, we do not
have access to any databases or the abiltiy to build an databases to
store results.

Hello,

 

By software are we talking Xerte content from desktop or Xerte Online
Toolkits?

Hello Patrick

 

Thankyou, that has worked wonders for me, we can now start developing
content and moving from Authorware to flash.  My other concern is that
does the software have the ability to create a log file of results and
email it a particular mailbox.

Hello

 

Add the rlt, rlm, rlo mimetypes as xml to your server.

 

Also install fiddler (on your pc) as it is your friend and will show you
this failing.

Hello

 

Has anyone managed to get a published version of there content working
on an IIS web server?

 

Specs:  windows 2003 running IIS 6. 

 

All i get is a window with the preloader saying Loading complete -
please wait....

 

and then nothing from there on.

 

It all works fine on a standalone machine.

 

regards

Sonny
