Description

Hi everyone,

We are trying to work with the 6.x-1.x-dev version of the integration module because it provides us with SSO, lazy account creation and display in an iframe. These three features are must have requirements for our project. Unfortunately we are not capable of programming ourselfs, thats one of the reasons drupal came in to play.

We thought we had the module up and running without a problem. And when you run it from the localhost (log in on the server with remote desktop) there truly is no problem. But then we decided to move on with the project and open up our "homemade" server to the world. When you visit the page trough the internet the moodle link is dead (and when you navigate directly to moodle, the page looks messed up). Our own logic points us in the direction of the server itself instead of a problem with the integration (mainly because the moodle page looks messed up). But this is our first time working with this open source stuff so we are definitily not sure of that.

We are using;
WinXP "server"
XAMPP 1.4.0 (Apache HTTPD 2.2.11 + Openssl 0.9.8i, MySQL 5.1.30, PHP 5.2.8)
Drupal 6.10
Moodle 1.9.4
Moodle-6.x-1.x-dev

The installation paths are;
htdocs/test1 (drupal root)
htdocs/test1/moodle (moodle root)
We refer to moodle with the follow link: "http://localhost/test1/?q=moodle".

We were hoping that someone here would be able to give us some pointers to find out what the problem is.
A whole lot of thanks in advance!

Femke.

XAMPP 1.4.0 should be 1.7.0.

Although I have not debugged this issue, I cannot think of any obvious reason why the Moodle module would have any problems with localhost versus internet addresses. My customer has about a dozen sites running on the internet using this (older) module without any problem.

If anyone finds a bug, and supplies a patch to fix it, I will include it in the module release here.
