Installation successful but no Officemix in Advanced Menu

[yugandhar91]

Hello all,

I tried installed officemix xblock to OpenEdX following the guide. The installation says it completed successfully. But I don't see officemix option in Advanced menu even after adding it to the advanced modules list.

Here is the log which may be useful -

The above looks good. Did you restart the edx services after doing the install?

[yugandhar91]

Hello kurtb,

Yes, I restarted all edx services, nginx and also tried the whole server reboot. It still didn't show up.

Thanks for helping out.

Any resolution to this issue? I am having the same problem

[yugandhar91]

@jbird6018 - Sorry, I couldn't solve this issue. I'm no longer working on Open edX. May be @kurtb can assist you.

[jbird6018]

Thanks. Hopefully @kurtb has a solution

[jbird6018]

@kurtb It would be nice if the Installation instructions were step by step from start to finish for us newbies to Linux and open edx.

I did get it to work thanks in part to your screen printout above. I was missing the second command sudo -u edxapp /edx/bin/pip.edxapp install xblock-officemix/

I also pulled from IONISx fork. Not sure that made a difference.

Running into the same problem with all XBlocks. Complete newbie. Is there any instruction sheet out there for installing XBlocks in Open Edx production?
