[Xerte] Re: Moodle Authentication Loop

[Tom Luxon]

Hi Ron,

Thanks for your reply.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0.
If I set auth_config to:
$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest';
//$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap';
//$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db';
//$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static';
//$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle";

Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping.

If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page.

I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory:
session.php
management.php
index.php
config.php (if using 1.6 or later)
\website_code\php\scorm\export.php

How would I add a cookie prefix?

Thanks

Kind Regards

Tom Luxon

What version of XOT are you using?
Does it all work with auth_config.php set to guest?
What happens if you login to moodle first and then follow the link to xot?
The fact that you are being redirected when visiting xerte first suggests the integration path is correct - did you add that during install or via management.php?
Can you try adding a cookie prefix in Moodle and try again? Although watch that it will log people out when you change it so do it off-peak.

Just a few thoughts.
Ron

Hi,

Yes they are both installed on the same server under the same folder structure.

Thanks

Kind Regards

It sounds like http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits can't access the session info from http://SERVERIP/moodle/ are theu both on the same server?

Hi There,

I have tried to setup Moodle authentication with Xerte but have encountered a slight problem, please could you help?

What happens is:


1.       I navigate to http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits

2.       This redirects me to http://SERVERIP/moodle/login/index.php from where I am able to enter my AD username and password successfully. I am logged into moodle where I then click a link I added (http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits) which should take me back to the xerte site..... (the link is there as I have not installed xerte within moodle)

3.       When I click the link or enter the xerte address in the same browser window I get directed back the moodle login page.

Can someone please tell me where I have gone wrong?

Thank you

Kind Regards

Tom Luxon
