[Xerte] Re: Moodle 2 server file structure?

[Dave Burnett]

Thanks Ron.

Not yet. I've also taken a peek at this:
http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=166999#p735868

I'm a bit hobbled at the moment because I do not have admin access to the Moodle 2 setup, so can't create repositories etc to test stuff.

Even with that though, the workarounds are all pretty involved (I won't be adminning them myself).
As well, they seem to be aimed at maintaining relative link integrity, etc.

What I had the ability to do in 1.x was:

- Upload and unzip SCORM shell structure.
- Find that strucrure with file picker utility
- add/overwrite files within that structure


Is there any way at all within Moodle 2 (custom repository? files system folder?) to emulate that capability?

Dave

Hi Davedid you find your answer? Moodle 2 does have a files area but not in the same was as previously and you may not like the 1st answer/solution as it's nowhere near as straightforward as previously! 1. So if you really want to go the same route as before see http://www.pengzhang.ca/blog/2011/01/10/updating-large-scorm-courses-loaded-on-moodle/but if you can set it up the following might be a better option:2. http://www.pengzhang.ca/blog/2011/01/08/loading-large-scorm-pif-packages-onto-moodle-2-0/ HTHRon From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett

In Moodle 1.x I had this process to evade the php.ini upload max size.

Upload SCORM package containing shell structure of LO, complete with folders for audio/video media.
Go to the left hand menu Files area, dig down to numbered folder representing root of unzipped SCORM package.
Upload audio/video files to appropriate folder.

Moodle 2 has no "Files" area, now has something called "Repositiories".

I have my shell uploaded, but I'll be darned if I can find that file structure anywhere.
Hints?
