Hello Fiona,
Ok, the ugly interface problem got solved. Apparently it was my mistake. In lamx.xml i had the server URL set to localhost:8080/lams... when i switched that to 192.168.1.11:8080/lams and rebuilt LAMS it worked fine.

I modified one of the users to have an arabic locale and i am currently testing the arabic interface and RTL support.

Everything works now, i'll just do more testing for the RTL support and report back to you. Should i post it here? this is installation problems forum, so i don't know if it would be appropriate. Would posting in LAMS for Tech-Heads forum be better?

One last thing, having to check LAMS from CVS and build it more than once appeared to be something not very enjoyable, so i wrote a simple script to do it for me. It's ugly but it gets the job done. I'm attaching it in case you could improve it and then post it so it might help somebody with the installation.

Thank you for your support :)

Hi Faisal,

Thanks for the script, it's great. I like all the seds so you don't have copy files around and stuff.

One suggestion for your script, instead of all the:

cvs co lams_admin
cvs co lams_build
cvs co lams_central
cvs co lams_common
cvs co lams_contentrepository
cvs co lams_learning
cvs co lams_monitoring
cvs co lams_tool_chat
cvs co lams_tool_forum

You can just go

cvs co all

and that will get all the packages you need to build LAMS.

One important thing to notice for the record on this one is that you must give people the URL to access LAMS as you put it in the lams.xml file. Otherwise there are some sessions that might be lost when jumping from application to application (LAMS is a collection of webapps) and you will all the sudden get sent to the login page without any apparent reason.

Hey Ernie,

AARGGHHH, if only i knew about that co all option before.. but then again, maybe i wouldn't have been so inclined to write that script :)

Thanx for the heads up, and hope you find some use for it
