1: Moodle Lams Integration Error

Hello Team,

First and foremost, I must say how much I am impressed with the capabilities of lams ! - i am a relative newbie to be honest but look forward to using it.

I have recently installed Lams on Tomcat / MYSQL and have run an existing Moodle site for many years now with few hickups so far on seperate servers (Windows). I have managed to integrate Moodle and Lams in the sense that I can access lams through Moodle and seems to be picking up user info, activities etc and registering fine with Moodle -however, I seem to be getting an error in the recent activity block within Moodle. Here is the error posted:

Warning: main(../../config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in c:\easyphp\easyphp1-7\www\moodle\mod\lams\lib.php on line 4

Warning: main(): Failed opening '../../config.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\EasyPHP\EasyPHP1-7\php\pear\') in c:\easyphp\easyphp1-7\www\moodle\mod\lams\lib.php on line 4

When I click 'Full report of recent activity' I also am getting the same error.

I am unsure of what to do with this ... any help at all is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've attached a screenshot of the 'Adding a new LAMS' screen from Moodle - is your dropdown menu populated at all?

The lams module is assuming that Moodle's config.php is located at c:\easyphp\easyphp1-7\www\moodle\config.php. If this isn't the case, get the full path to config.php (do a Windows file search if you're not sure), and open c:\easyphp\easyphp1-7\www\moodle\mod\lams\lib.php with Notepad or Wordpad. On the 4th line, just replace the text '../../config.php' with the full path to config.php, and that should do the trick.

Hi Jun-Dir,

I changed lib to the full path and it works now. Thank you so much for your quick response. Just a note though - The textbox as detailed in your picture was populated and I could access LAMS through Moodle fine and add lams activities through Moodle, which I could then recall. The line ../../config.php was in the correct location as well so I am unsure what was entirely wrong. However, entering the full path to config works now so I am happy. Thanks again for all your help Jun.

Paul

Has anyone seen this error in Moodle (when creating a new LAMS activity):

"An unexpected error returned from LAMS server:HTTP Error: socket read of headers timed out! Please contact your administrator."

It tries to load the drop-downs and then gives up.

I originally had the same problem as Paul, but that was ironed out by changing the '../../config.php' to the full address from 'c:'.

This is the second server I've tried to integrate LAMS and Moodle on and I'm starting to lose it now...

The soap request from Moodle is timing out when trying to contact LAMS for the list of sequences. What's your integration setup like - LAMS and Moodle on the same server, or separate machines? Does this happen consistently, or only once? A spike in network activity could cause this error.

Can you check your LAMS access log in $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/log/localhost_access{today's date}.log - if the soap request from Moodle has reached it, there should be an entry such as

x.x.x.x - - [14/Jun/2006:15:01:47 10000] "GET /lams/services/LearningDesignService?wsdl HTTP/1.1" 200 4595
x.x.x.x - - [14/Jun/2006:15:01:47 10000] "POST /lams/services/LearningDesignService HTTP/1.1" 200 872

Another thing to try is to increase the timeout value in httpd.conf for Moodle. By default I think it is set to 3 minutes:
#
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
#
Timeout 300
