Forum Problems Installing LAMS: Re: LAMS & Moodle Integration--Activity Call up Error

I could do with help on this issue as well. I also get the following errors, which usually go away once I close the offending browser window and reselect the LAMS Learner link within Moodle. All is then well and the LAMS learner window opens corectly.

Initially when I click on the Open LAMS Learner link I get the following message:

HTTP Status 400 - Invalid direct reference to form login page

-----------------------------------------------------------

type Status report

message Invalid direct reference to form login page

description The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect (Invalid direct reference to form login page).

-----------------------------------------------------------

Apache Tomcat/4.1.24-LE-jdk14

On refreshing the browser window I then get the following message:


HTTP Status 404 - /lams/j_security_check

-----------------------------------------------------------

type Status report

message /lams/j_security_check

description The requested resource (/lams/j_security_check) is not available.


Further refeshing the window has no affect. If I close the offending window and click again on the Open LAMS Learner link within Moodle the LAMS learner then opens correctly as expected.

I have downloaded the lams-valve.jar.zip from the archive as suggested, but when I unpack it I get:

[root@vle ~]# unzip lams-valve*
Archive: lams-valve.jar.zip
creating: META-INF/
inflating: META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
creating: org/
creating: org/lamsfoundation/
creating: org/lamsfoundation/ld/
creating: org/lamsfoundation/ld/security/
creating: org/lamsfoundation/ld/security/valve/
inflating: org/lamsfoundation/ld/security/valve/LoginRequestValve.class

What on earth do I now do with the contents of the META-INF and org directories?

I am an ordinary LAMS installer not a Java/JSP expert. Can someone please post some easy to follow guidance?

We'd like to trial LAMS/Moodle integration with our students but would like this working reliably first...

Thanks very much

Clive
