Set $development to true in config.php. Not seeing any errors on screen when logging in/creating/editing/previewing/playing.

Turn on development?

Nope, play and play_html do the same thing: http://elearning.net.marjon.ac.uk/xerte2/play.php?template_id=1

I’m getting nothing back of any use from the POST response, so don’t know what settings to check. Any advice?

The only thing that looks different in the site details table between my old XOT install and this one is the import_path value:

old XOT: C:Inetpubwwwrootloimport/
new XOT: C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/xerte2/import/
But I suspect that’s the old XOT with a rubbish/wrong value.

Does play work?

500 suggests php error which suggests a missing setting?

Right, ignore my previous query as I’ve decided to forget about the Frankenstein installation and start with a fresh XOT install on IIS.

I’ve successfully run through all of the setup, following the new guide (which is great btw) and installed without error. I had to go back and insert LDAP settings in to the database, and can login fine.

I’ve created a new learning object using the Nottingham template. The edit window works fine, however, when I preview it I get nothing but a blank screen. There’s a HTTP 500 error in the console, but it’s not particularly helpful, I think it’s on the play.php?template= script.

I’ve checked the site details and all the import paths look OK to me:

Subject: [Xerte] Import an Exported Xerte File into XOT

Hi wizards

I’ve scanned the Xerte list and although I can find some reference to this I can’t make sense of the processes documented.

We’re running XOT (not the most recent version) which has HTML5 support.

Students have created Xerte objects using the standard Nottingham template, and they’ve exported Zip versions. We now need to re-import these Xerte objects back in to XOT so they can be edited, and then linked to using the HTML5 URL.

How do I re-import a downloaded ZIP? I can’t see an import via the Management.php section, and importing a zip under Properties > Media > Import gives me a invalid filetype error.

Thanks, Adam
