[Solved] file_get_contents error

No, there is no password for the usar in Moodle. Yo cannot set it. The joomdle auth method requires you to login through joomla.

Did you try to create another user and obtanied the same results?

What I asked is if you get a new user in Moodle when creating in Joomla, and if the user's fields are blank.

The only reason possible for that is that Moodle connection to Joomla is not working.

The test to do is: create a new user in joomla from back-end.
Without logging in with him, go to Moodle admin and see user details.

If they are all blank, then xmlrpc joomla plugin is not working. Possible causes:
- Bad config in Moodle plugin, Plugin not enabled, bad Moodle networking config...
- xml-rpc plugin not active, not installed, registered or special set .. in joomla
- Web services in joomla not working

Any of these has to be.

That is why I think is a joomla problem.
The process is this:
- When creating a new user in joomla, it calls a web service in moodle to create a new user
- This web service, calls a web service in Joomla to get user details. This is what is failing, as the details are empty.

So, I would write a simple test to confirm. Create a new file test.php in document webroot with this, modifyng your username and URL.

<?php
$username='YOURUSERNAME';
$request = xmlrpc_encode_request("joomdle.getUserInfo", array ($username));
$context = stream_context_create(array('http' => array(
'method' => "POST",
'header' => "Content-Type: text/xml",
'content' => $request
)));
$response = file_get_contents("http://YOUR_URL/xmlrpc/index.php", false, $context);

echo "Response:<br>";
print_r ($response);

?>

Go to the file's url and see what you get. This just calls the web service to get the user details.
