XML-RPC error (Access denied)

Hi All,

Can you please reply any update to

www.joomdle.com/en/forum/r04-no-longer-s...-method?limitstart=0

I am really in need of this... :sick:

Sorry I am not sure what you are looking for. That thread was 'solved'. If you are asking has the connectivity changed? No you still require IP addresses to connect Joomla and Moodle.

Hello Chris,

Thank you very much for your reply.
As mentioned in that post, I am facing same problem as the server on which the Moodle 2.2 + Joomla 1.5 is installed is configured on AWS with load balancing. So whenever System Check is done, it toggles between two ips and last option turns to red crossed.

I need help with patching in php scripts so that it can work with both the ip address.

Please let me know if I am able to make you understand what I mean.

I understand what you mean. At this time Joomdle is looking for 1 IP address. As yours is only the second request for such a modification, it is low on our priorities. Naturally, if you wish to sponsor such a development I can speak with Antonio on the time required and associated costs to make this happen.

Chris

Hi Chris,

Many thanks.
I am able to hack the script and now application is accepting two ips.

Excellent. Perhaps you can share the code so that:
- others can benefit from your experience
- we can include the code in a future release, if appropriate, saving you the need to hack future versions.

Regards

Chris

Hi Chrish,
Yeah sure, i will share the modified script.
We have made changes in joomla/plugins/xmlrpc/joomdle.php
function check_origin ()
{
$request_ip = JRequest::getVar ('REMOTE_ADDR', '', 'server');
$comp_params = &JComponentHelper::getParams( 'com_joomdle' );
$moodle_url = $comp_params->get( 'MOODLE_URL' );
$url = parse_url ($moodle_url);
$domain = $url;
$moodle_ip = gethostbyname ($domain);

//echo $moodle_ip = gethostbyname ($domain);
//echo "<br>".$request_ip;
//echo "IPPPP:: ".$_SERVER;
//exit;

$plugin =& JPluginHelper::getPlugin('xmlrpc','joomdle');
$params = new JParameter( $plugin->params );

// if IP configured, check it
$configured_moodle_ip = $params->get('moodle_ip');
//$configured_moodle_ip = "10.128.73.104";
//return true;
if ($configured_moodle_ip){
$ips = explode(',', $configured_moodle_ip);
$ipList = array();
foreach($ips as $ip){
$ipList[] = trim($ip);
}
return in_array($request_ip, $ipList);
//return ($request_ip == $configured_moodle_ip);
}
// else, check public ip
return ($request_ip == $moodle_ip);
}


Please let us know if this is proper or need some modification to work smoothly in future realeases.
