Flash activity does not display (shows blank screen) #10

Hello Matt,

I am trying to use the SWF Activity Module (latest version) on godaddy's Moodle 
1.9 (PHP v5.X). In the very beginning I've stumbled on the following problem: 

In Rockmelt browser (Chrome-based) nothing is displayed. Right clicking the 
area shows a Flash menu with "Film not loaded" on the top. Same result occurs 
with Internet Explorer (found version 7 on this PC :)). Firefox shows the Flash 
update window, entirely disregarding the version I use in the SWF Activity 
settings. 

I tried setting version 6.0, 8.0.1, 9.0.115, 10.2.153.1 (my current one) - 
nothing helps, I still get the update window. I also tried different SWF's, 
published in different Flash versions. 

Any ideas what it might be?

Hi,

It looks like, the Flash file is not being loaded from the server for some 
reason. I'd check that the paths are correct and then check that your web host 
allows Flash files to be served from that particular directory, i.e. moodledata.

Good luck!

Can you suggest how to check whether the hosting allows to load Flash from 
moodledata? There are no problems loading SCORM flash lessons, if that is any 
indication.

If the SCORM packages are hosted in moodledata and working correctly, then it 
probably isn't a server issue.

Finally solved it. The problem was with GoDaddy hosting, per default 
slasharguments were turned off. A minor adjustment in php5.ini as indicated in 
Moodle Docs (SCORM section) has fixed it. Maybe this will help some poor soul.

Thanks for posting your solution. I know a lot of people use GoDaddy hosting 
and may face similar problems.

Here's to openness and sharing! :)
