Dave,

I think you need to put the lams_tool_mdlassignment and all the other lams_tool_mdlX at the same level as all the other lams_tool_X lams tools.

Try that and that would probably work.

Hi Ernie,

Can you be more specific?

What does "at the same level" mean?

Do I need to checkout the entire lams 2.3 source?

Sorry, I have spent too much time in Spain already

The lams_tools_mdlX folders, they have to be in the same subdirectory level as the other folders.

Note that instead of being in the tool_adapters/moodle/lams_tool_mdlassignment/, you just get rid of the tool_adapters/moodle folder and put them all in the same subdirectory.

Does that make sense?

Not really, I don't HAVE any of those folders :)

So do I need to check out the entire lams 2.3 tree? It is not specified in the instructions here.

So the library containing
: class ExtServerToolAdapterMap
[javac] location: package org.lamsfoundation.lams.integration
[javac] import org.lamsfoundation.lams.integration.ExtServerToolAdapterMap;
[javac]

does not exist anywhere in my checkout of the code specified, or in my lams 2.3 install. Did I miss a step of something to checkout?

Hi Dave,

The ExtServerToolAdapterMap code is actually new to 2.3.1, so you'll need to check out from the lams2_3_1 tag to get the latest for both tool adapter and core. This new class was part of a feature to allow multiple integrated moodle servers to use the tooladapter.

Try checking out from the lams2_3_1 tag.

Ok one more dumb question then I'll go away for a bit and work.

If I checkout the lams 2.3.1 tag, is there other stuff in there besides the external tool adapter I need?

Perhaps another solution would have been to checkout the moodle adapters from an earlier date instead of HEAD?

Yes,

You need at least the lams_build project, which contains all the core jar files needed to compile the other projects.

Check out this page for more info about building lams:
http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Building+LAMS

Basically, before building you will need to edit the lams_build/common.properties to make sure its configured to talk to your database, and is set to either windows or unix. You'll also need to edit the <your os type>.properties file to point the builder to the correct locations on your server.

Then you can run the tool's deploy-tool ant task and it should hopefully work.

Good luck

Luke

Yes, I did this, checking out lams_build from HEAD.

It did not seem to work, it was missing the ExtToolAdapaterMap class which appears to be in a different module from my cvs browsing. I checked out the whole 2_3_1 tree and I'll try to build it and let you know.

Thanks for the help!
