[Xerte] Getting toolkits running

[Patrick Lockley]

Left a bit off

 

Xerte Online Toolkits would like 

 

PHP from 4.3.8 up (its what we have here, not sure if it could go lower)

 

MySQL I think we are on version 5, but we don't do anything fancy. 

 

It looks a lot nicer on apache with a mod_rewrite module, but it can
live quite happily on IIS.

 

We had 1 person have a problem on linux, but we've didn't get that here.

 

 

If you're reading this and have an install - could you send me (off
list) your sites spec so we could start adding this together.

Subject: [Xerte] Getting toolkits running

 

I am trying to get the Xerte toolkits running as it is becoming
increasingly clear that in the organisation I work for a collaborative
web based solution to the creation of e-learning will be required.

 

Initially I have installed Xampp and installed XerteToolkits.

 

The only issue I hit was that I based my installation instructions on an
earlier email that required a "toolkits" folder to be created rather
than a "xertetoolkits" folder. However once I changed the folder name
from toolkits to xertetoolkits all seemed to work OK. I installed using
the Xampp button rather than the full install.

 

However when I try to edit the project I have created I get an error
message

 

Warning:
copy(C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\USER-FILES/1-guest-Nottingham/data.xm
l) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in
C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\modules\xerte\edit.php on line 46

 

Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: No such file or directory in
C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\modules\xerte\edit.php on line 48

 

Also the project properties / media and quota tab displays the following


Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: stat failed for
C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\USER-FILES/1-guest-Nottingham/data.xml in
C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\website_code\php\properties\media_and_quot

a_template.php on line 121

 

Warning:

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource
in
C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\website_code\php\properties\media_and_quot
a_template.php on line 65

 

This project is currently using 0 MB

 

It would be useful to be able to fix this, if you can give me any clues
what to do. At present there are no folders in the user-files folder.

 

However I suspect that what I need to try to set up is a none Xampp
based production server. Can you advise what the minimum software
requirements are for xerte with respect to Apache, php, mySql and any
other components that are required?

 

Kind regards
