Install Joomdle in Moodle

Hi all,
For a start I am very new to Moodle, but have used joomla for a while now.
So I thought I would install Joomdle so I can have the advantages of Moodle but have the main part of the site setup using Joomla.

Anyway this is what I have so far.

Joomla site setup up and running.
Moodle installed and working fine, in the public-html folder of Joomla site.
I have also installed Joomdle in Joomla.

Question 1.
Do i have to install joomdle in moodle site too? (I haven't done this yet) where is the download for it as i can only see the joomdle for joomla file
joomdle_v1.1.3-for-joomla30-UNZIP-FIRST.

I can open my moodle site with browser and all seems to be fine.

I have been trying to configure Joomdle in Joomla and when I do the system check I get these errors (see attachments)
I have been looking for help through this forum but can't find how to fix this, many hours have been spent already.

Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers Annie

Hi.

> joomdle_v1.1.3-for-joomla30-UNZIP-FIRST.

Inside this package, you'll find a moodle/ folder with Moodle packages. It is mandatory to install auth_joomdle package.

> I have been trying to configure Joomdle in Joomla and when I do the system check I get these errors (see attachments)

First, install Joomdle on Moodle.
Then, change your URL in Joomdle config in Joomla, as it should not include /my/.
You will also need to enter Moodle auth token here, as well as configure Joomdle on Moodle.

Please check this for instructions:

Hi Antonio,
Thanks for getting back to me, just another question.
To install joomdle in moodle do I just install the 'auth_joomdle' zip file only not the whole joomdle zip file.

Hi Antonio,
Thanks for your help, I have managed to get it set up on both joomla and moodle sites.

After doing a system check i have one error

Joomdle Web Services Joomla URL seems to be misconfigured in Joomdle auth plugin in Moodle

I have double checked in moodle and i can't see a problem, not sure where to go from here to fix it, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Antonio,
OK an update, i have checked through some more posts in here and found one that suggested to do this check

tuutyou.com/index.php?option=com_joomdle...server&format=xmlrpc
this is the error message I got.

XML-RPC Error (1): Invalid token:

I have double checked the tokens on both sites, they seem to be right, any other suggestions.

Sorry to be posting so much. Just really want to get it sorted.

cheers Annie

Hi Again,
This will be my last post tonight, more searching done.

I have just checked this out :

Raw replies
Joomdle will write raw system check XMLRPC replies to files to help you troubleshoot connection issues.
Files written are:
joomla_folder/logs/joomdle_system_check.xml
moodledata_folder/temp/joomdle_system_check.xml

and this is what I got from them, there does seem to be a problem just not sure how to deal with it.

So what do I need to do now, I know I'm nearly there, just need to get this sorted.

> Joomdle Web Services Joomla URL seems to be misconfigured in Joomdle auth plugin in Moodle

Double check joomla url entered in joomdle auth plugin in moodle, including http://

Are all the other checks green?

hi Antonio,
I have double checked the url in moodle and Joomla and all seems to be right.

Attached is the system check from Joomla

all seems correct, what next. Any suggestions

Cheers Annie

Do you have any security software, like Admin Tools, running in Joomla? If so, try disabling it and test.

URL seems ok, as other checks are working fine, so the only problem seems to be xmlrpc content in calls to Joomla.

Hi Antonio,
i don't think i have any security software in joomla, where would i check for it, also what can I do about the xmlrpc problem.

Cheers Annie
