Hi Fiona,

I tried to put xWiki in the same JBoss webapp container as LAMS, but it didn't work. The reason is because you have used the unified class loader. When I set "UseJBossWebLoader" to false xWiki works, but as you mention here, LAMS will not work properly.

So, I guess, what I need to do is to run xWiki on another JBoss instance on the same server, or are there other ways to work around this problem? Have you been able to run other webapps on the same JBoss instance?

Another question: Is there a single sign-on between Moodle and LAMS? If I'm not able to create the single sign-on functionality using Moodle could be a last option. I'm not to keen on using Moodle (it has an integrated wiki) because I want LAMS to be in the foreground.

The classloader business in JBoss can be right pain.... We haven't tried running any other webapps in the same JBoss instance.

There is single sign on between Moodle and LAMS. You need the LAMS2 module available from the download page.

If it was possible to implement single sign on from xWiki to LAMS, based on the Moodle or Sakai integrations then the users could log into xWiki and click on a button to open the LAMS window. Then they could run in LAMS as much as they want, going back to xWiki when desired. Not beautiful but maybe workable? If you did this, you could run xWiki in Tomcat, Jett y, etc - you wouldn't need a full JBoss instance.

If I get a chance this week (and I'm pretty busy with bug fixes for the next release) I'll try running up xWiki myself and see if I can come up with anything.
