Can't reinstall Joomdle authentication plugin was created by Fernando Oliveira
Hello,

My installation didn't go well so I thought I'd start from scratch. Problem is that I can't seem to reinstall the authentication plugin. Here's what I did:

1. Remove the joomdle folder from moodle/auth/
2. Delete all joomlde database entries by running this:

* delete from mdl_config_plugins where plugin like '%joomdle%';
* delete from mdl_mnet_host2service where hostid=0 and serviceid=4;
* drop table mdl_joomdle_dummytable

3. Put folder back in moodle/auth/
4. Visit Notifications page in Moodle

Nothing happens. I would expect the Notifications page to show joomdle being added to the database, since the joomdle entries were removed, but nothing happens. The joomdle authentication plugin shows up in Users > Authentication and the joomdle "Settings" still contain the details of my previous setup (ie. before joomdle was removed from database). I would expect the SQL queries (shown above) to wipe these settings clean. Makes me wonder if these queries are removing all reference to joomdle.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Fernando

Aside from the above issue. Does it work? Or what problems are you experiencing? Error messages, etc.

The error messages that I see are as follows:


From the Joomdle System Check:

Something is wrong with Joomdle Web Services setup


From the Joomla site:

XML-RPC Error (7015): Unable to locate function, or function prohibited for RPC


Thanks,
Fernando

Try visiting notifications with the folder removed, and then again after putting it in place.

Mmm...never happened to me :(

Only thing I can think of is to insert the row directly into the database.
Only this one is needed:
- insert into mnet_host2service (hostid, serviceid, publish) VALUES ('0', '4', '1');

Can you try and see if that helps?
If that does not help, check mdl_mnet_host table, to see the ID of your host, and if it is not '1', change the about statment with your value.
