ELMS Install Profile from Alpha-1 (Really Drupal 6.x)

correct, the current version won't work with prefixing. It's using an incorrect way of making sustainable distros (large reason why it's alpha1) based on a technique mentioned by lullabot. Did this to get something out the door for discussion, future builds (at least once out of alpha) won't have this issue.

I had no trouble installing. However, after leaving to Assignment Studio, it goes to syllabus and no other page. I can delete the database and reinstall to get back to square one. I have tryed activating just the modules to use Assignment Studio with no luck. Any sugestions?

do you have a screenshot of this behavior? the open studio does alter the theme / primary menu so you have to hit back to course. but u should still be able to get to the rest of the site

Thanks, This is the screen shot. Hitting back goes to 'webpage has expired'. The fact that it changes theme / primary menu sujest to me that I have missed something in setup.

that page looks correct to me, you're saying that it doesn't do anything after the fact? is this on apache or IIS cause it's untested on IIS

apache on win7 ( is what they want me to use on my dev machine. So I know win7 ) the production machine is SUSE Linux. Do clean URLs need to be active?

ahhh, install profile most likely has clean URLs turned on by default; there's a good chance that's it or a big part of it

I've just added the rewrite mod to apache, it works. I will reinstall and try again.

Clean URLs fixed the Problem. Thanks for your time and help.

excellent, I'll add it to the documentation

Hi,

One more problem, Creating rubric has no title field and needs one to save. I can't seem to even find a clue on google.

attached is a pic of screen and after save screen.

don't see a picture. Rubrics were kind of included as an afterthought in this distribution. We use them in courses in full production but there are no plans to bundle this in the distribution at this time

Update: it seems to be in the Chamfer theme, I changed themes and every thing shows. Also this seems to be more of a Drupal bug, as I searched for missing fields (genericly) and found other modules have the same problem.

I'm trying to resend pic.

Interesting, what browser are you using?

IE 8, I wll try others.

Hello, I get the following message when I try to install ELMS from Alpha-1

Failed to create a test table on your MySQL database server with the command CREATE TABLE drupal_install_test (id int NULL). MySQL reports the following message: Table 'drupal_install_test' already exists.
Are you sure the configured username has the necessary MySQL permissions to create tables in the database?
For more help, see the Installation and upgrading handbook. If you are unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your hosting provider.

Before this message came I got a timeout message and after refreshing the browser I got the message that the content in the database already exists.

Can I just say drop table in the database?

Thanks,
Peter

Did you try upgrading from Alpha 1 to alpha 4? There are no upgrade paths currently for elms distributions as they are point releases. You need to install the distribution in a fresh location with a fresh database. Alpha 1 2 and 3 are not supported, once we move into a beta release we'll be able to support upgrades between versions but as there are significant platform changes between versions right now there is no way of doing this.
