[Closed] Sign existing Moodle users into Joomla

I've got an existing Moodle setup with a couple of thousand users - I'd like them to be able to use a small extra site I've made in Joomla and so have installed Joomdle. A single-sign-on between the two sites and being able to show the Moodle calendar, etc on the other site are the features I'm most keen to use.

- Installation of Joomdle 0.8 on both Moodle 2.0 and Joomla 2.5 went ok, and the systems check is all green.
- My test user shows green ticks in the Joomla login, Moodle login and Joomdle login columns in the User tab, and her authorisation is set to Joomdle in Moodle.

However, when she tries to log in via a Joomla login module, it gives her a 500 error. It does this for both her Moodle username/password combo and a new password that was emailed to her via either Joomla or Joomdle (I'm not sure which).

Is there something further I'm supposed to do, or does Joomdle not quite work for my situation? I'd really like to avoid having my existing users go through another new username/password setup if it's at all possible.

Let me know if you need further info to answer this question, or just point me to the relevant spot if I've missed something in the documentation

Hi.

It's weird that yoy are getting a error 500 on login. Have you tried creating a new joomla user account and logging in to see if that works fine.
If not, disable the joomdlehooks plugin and try again, to see if the problem is related to Joomdle or Joomla itself.

As for the new password: this is sent to migrated users, as we cannot read current Moodle password, and when you set a user to use Joomlde auth, he's moodle password is no longer relevant, as all auth is donde on Joomla side (even when you log directly to Moodle).
Doc for this is here:
www.joomdle.com/wiki/Migrating_existing_...Joomla_installations

Thanks for getting back to me!

When I add a new user to Joomla:
- no error on login to the Joomla site
- no error on login to the Moodle one using the same details
- green ticks in the user columns for J, M and Joomdle
- logging in to Joomla doesn't log the user in to Moodle, or vice versa; each has to be done separately.

However the migrated users are still showing me blank pages on login (I cannot reproduce the 500 error reported to me by my test user).

Is there something else I should try to do in order to resolve this?

On further thoughts - maybe this isn't an installation problem, and I'm just clicking the wrong buttons!

In case that's the issue, I've attached the menu I see for the Users section of Joomdle. To get users from Moodle-only to a Joomdle sign-on, what should I be doing?

If Single Sign On is not working, check:
- enable redirect-less SSO. Try changing the value of this
- check domains consistency (it'snot the same www.site.com that site.com)

To get a Moodle user into Joomla/Joomdle you only need: Add users to Joomla
This will change their password and email the new one.

Additionally, you can do later Sync Moodle profiles, which will sync profile data if you have configured additional data source, and added the mappings.

Aha! I checked the items you suggested, but they all seemed correct. Turning the redirectless off gave me blank pages on attempted login, so I turned it back on again.

But it made me think to check that everything else in Joomla was set up correctly. So I went through all the configuration and checking panels one by one. In the Plug-in Manager, the System - Joomdlesession plugin was disabled. Enabling it has fixed things now, logins work fine across both Joomla and Moodle.

Thanks for talking me through this, I appreciate you taking the time!
