Hi Dave,

This sequence uses the pixlr tool which is not included in LAMS v2.2.

However, when importing sequences with tools that you don't have, LAMS graciously should import all other activities but the ones that are missing (and give you a nice message).

However, there's a small catch with this tool as it uses image files (jpgs) for editing as you see in the preview of the sequence. To fix this, just go to the following folder:

{path-to-jboss}/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/deploy/lams.ear/lams-www.war/images/

and in there create a directory called "pixlr" (all lowercase)

Import it again and it should import the rest of the sequence but the pixlr activity will be missing.

In LAMS v2.3, when the pixlr tool is deploy then the folder is created so you won't encounter this problem at all

Thanks,

Ernie

Thanks!
Does this mean there should be a 2.3 version on the download? It says 2.2.0.

These guys (education students at the University of Technology Sydney) are using version 2.2 but with the pixlr tool compiled from source.

Hmmm, same error after I added the pixlr directory.

I'll turn on debugging and import again to see if I can get more info.

Hmmm... Let me try importing it in a LAMSv2.2 server though (I tried before in a 2.3 without pixlr).

You are using LAMS 2.2, right?

Yes, not a big deal if it doesn't work on 2.2 that is a good explanation :)

Let me know if you want an account on our lams server.
