Hi Dave,

It sounded like LAMS couldn't fetch the user details from .LRN.

Just as a further clarification, when a user 'jumps' from .LRN (or any other integrated LMS) to LAMS, one of the steps in authentication process in LAMS is to verify if the user exists in LAMS, if it doesn't then it makes a call back to .LRN (server to server call) to get the user details (first name, last name, email address, etc).

Of course if the user already exists in LAMS, then no user details are requested.

That's why your sysadmin user was allowed to see the lesson, whereas 'new' users were returning an error
