[Patrick Lockley]

For ref, did you do the XAMPP install, or the full install?

Folder isn't being written to then.

Can you access the sitedetails table?

Is the root_file_path attribute set?

I have tried both, the new learning object with a different name.

Did you try creating a new learning object? Or accessing the old one?

Permissions are No sharing of the folder and Permissions for everyone is Read Allow. I changed this to  shared folder and allow Full control ad Change, but I still get the same issue of "No such file or directory..."

No, there is a text file in there stating, "Text file to ensure this folder is created on the server".

That makes sense, all seems well with the set up. I have created a new learning object, but when I come to edit it I get the following message:

Warning: copy(USER-FILES/1-guest-Nottingham/data.xml) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in J:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\modules\xerte\edit.php on line 44

Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: No such file or directory in J:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\modules\xerte\edit.php on line 46
I can see the edit.php in the modules\xerte folder. Any ideas why it will not run?

I have played around with getting toolkits up and running in a variety of ways, some with more success than others. I have nearly completed a Full Install (as I have put Moodle on the same MySql), but the last part of the instructions says:

1) Go to the root folder of your site
2) Rename index.php to be index.old
3) Rename demo.php to be index.php
There is no demo.php in the toolkits folder, only a demo txt file. How / where can I find the file I need?

Thanks

Thanks for the responses.

I have stopped and started Apache and MySql a couple of times to test if they were the problem, but that did not fix the issue.

I do not have a an Index.php file, only an Index.txt file in the directory. I will try unzipping and re-loading Toolkits again in case I have not got all the files I need.

Hi Ian

It sounds like XAMPP is displaying the contents of the web directory rather than showing a default page.

Try visiting http://localhost/xertetoolkits/index.php which should take you to the home page of the interface.

Hope that helps

Kind regards

Hi

I have just started to investigate Xerte and successfully installed xampp and Xerte Toolkits on a (Windows XP) PC. After the installation I was able to run Toolkits from http://localhost/xertetoolkits/ and create an effective learning resource.

Since trying to launch Toolkits, again using the URL above, I simply get the Index of files for Toolkits and not the Toolkits interface.

Could anyone help me with this problem and explain how I can return to the Toolkits interface?

Thanks
