[Xerte] Re: Xerte Issue

[Ron Mitchell]

Oh dear I just re-read my previous message and spotted the typo :-(

 

I meant to say I WOULDN'T i.e. WOULD NOT install Xerte into your Moodle
database!

 

Create a separate database and separate database user and then use those
details when running setup.

 

Regards

Ron

Also, is you try to use a different database then Moodle, make sure the
Moodle credentials have the permission to create the database. Still If that
was the issue, I would have expected a different error from MySQL. 

I don't know this particular error and have never seen it before.

Regards,

Tom

You should change/disable that location from public access until you have
Xerte installed.

 

Did you create the xerte database and user account in advance? I would
install Xerte into your Moodle database but may be mis-reading what you have
said.

 

There's a recording of a previous Techdis Xerte Friday webinar which might
help linked from this page

Hello,

 

I am in the process pf installing Xerte into our Moodle system.

 

I am on the My SQL Database creation page and it gives me an error when I
click next. The error is Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial
communication packet', system error: 111.

Creating MySQL Database Failed!

 

I have copied the contents of our original Moodle. I have created a sub
domain and put the copied contents into it. This allowed me to view moodle
into the newly created sub domain as well. Then I downloaded xerte online
toolkit, created a folder into the new sub domain (where moodle is
installed) and pasted the contents of xerte into it. I am able to go through
the first steps to install xerte but fails at the SQL creation page. I am
using the same database name, username and password of our original Moodle
system.

 

Can you please assist me with this.

 

Our URL is 

 

moodletest.bct.ie/xerte 

 

Many thanks.

Imran
