Forum Problems Installing LAMS: Re: Re: Tools integration problem with LAMS 2.3.1 and Moodle 1.9.3

Hi Alex,

From looking at the build output, I think the problem here is that the lams_build/lib/lams/lams.jar is out of date.

You can fix this by getting the latest code for the lams_common project, then running the copy-lams-jar-to-shared-folder ant task in the lams_common project. After that try running the deploy tool for the tool adapter again.

Also ensure your checking out code from the lams2_3_1 tag

Luke, thank you very much for your help!

Please tell me if i wrong with something: i got lams_common (2_3_1 tag), entered and run "ant copy-lams-jar-to-shared-folder":

Microsoft Windows XP [Версия 5.1.2600]
>cd C:\Documents and Settings\Александр\lams2_3\lams_common
..\lams2_3\lams_common>ant copy-lams-jar-to-shared-folder
Buildfile: build.xml
BUILD FAILED
Target "copy-lams-jar-to-shared-folder" does not exist in the project "LAMS".
Total time: 1 second

Is it something wrong with command or i need some additional projects?

P.S. As far as i understand, it will be ok if i'll build LAMS 2.3.1 from source?

Sincerely,
Alexander

Aaah sorry my mistake.

Then ant task should be copy-lams-jar-to-shared-lib no copy-lams-jar-to-shared-folder...

Try that and hopefully that will work

Luck, thank you for your help, but there is still some problem (please see attached file).

By the way, can i get a right version of lams.jar or it can only be compiled?

Alex.

Alex,

It looks like ant cannot find the third-party libraries it needs to build.

What does your directory structure look like?

You should have lams_build, tool_adapters and lams_common directories all under the same directory.

You also need to make sure you have correctly edited the common.properties and the <your os>.properties

I would suggest looking at this page for more information about building lams:

Luke,

sorry for my late answer, i was on vacation and now started Moodle-LAMS tools integration from the beginning (having LAMS 2.3.1 and Moodle 1.9.3):

I checked out temp_moodle_dev, tool_adapters, lams_build and lams_common projects (all with lams2_3_1 tag).

After all configurations, i make «ant deploy-tool», but there is BUILD FAILED error immediately: C:\tool_adapters\moodle\lams_tool_mdlassignment\build.xml:239: c:\lams\jboss-4.0
.2\common\lib not found.

I have the following correct path in my windows.properties file:
jboss.home=c:/lams/jboss-4.0.2/
but originally there was «jboss.home=D:/jboss-5/». May be i’m wrong with checking out projects? I used «lams2_3_1» tag.

Thank you,
Alex.

Alex,

What does your lams_build/windows.properties look like?

It looks to me like you have got the wrong version of lams_build... and possibly the other projects too.

If you have the correct version of lams_build, in the windows.properties file there should be a line that reads

j2eelibs=${jboss.server.instance}/lib

not

j2eelibs=${jboss.home}/common/lib

After 2.3.1 we have moved to jboss-5 and some of the directory structures have changed. It looks like the lams_build project is expecting jboss-5, but if it was checked out from the lams2_3_1 tag, it would be expecting jboss-4.0.2.

Try checking out again, make sure you are checking out lams2_3_1 source

Luke, thank you for your help!

Of course you are right about projects for jboss-5. Now i checked out (using Eclipse) projects with lams2_3_1 tag (jboss-4.0.2 in lams_build properties files), made deployment with "build successful" for all tools, but now lams can't start at all.
I looked at server.log file (please see attachment) and there are deployment errors there like that:


2009-08-17 16:00:39,406 ERROR [org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer] could not start deployment: file:/C:/lams/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/deploy/lams.ear/

Hi, looking at the server.log, the assignment tool project has been updated, but it can't find some of the classes it needs - if you haven't already done so, you'll probably need to rebuild the core lams libraries as well - 'ant assemble-ear; ant deploy-ear; ant copy-files' in the lams_build project.

Jun-Dir, thank you very much for your help!

I'm using LAMS 2.3 installer with 2.3.1 patch. Please tell me if the problem is in core libraries and i need to rebuild them as if i'm building LAMS from source?
I tried to make ant 'assemble-ear' in lams_build, but there is compiler error (please see attachment).

P.S. Do i need all LAMS projects under the same directory to make rebuild (i had only lams_build and lams_common)?

P.S.2. Please tell me how to set IP-address for LAMS if i will build it from source without installer?

Thanks ahaid, sincerely,
Alexander

Hi Alex,

Here are the instruction how to build LAMS 2.3:

http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Building+LAMS

Also, here are instructions on how to set up your development environment:

http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Development+Environment

Now the latest development, not yet release, LAMS version 2.4 uses JBoss-5. So if you want to build the latest, please follow these instructions:

http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Building+LAMS+2.4

Thanks,

Ernie
