https://webwork.maa.org/wiki/Moodle_Assignment and 2.18 #2199

Closed ma-gokbas closed 1 year ago

ma-gokbas commented 1 year ago

I am using moodle. In version 2.18 I cannot perform the instructions described at https://webwork.maa.org/wiki/Moodle_Assignment because it uses Mojolicious instead of apache. What can I do to use Moodle Assignment in version 2.18? I'm using docker image on kubernetes.

This is a question that is more appropriate for the forums so that others can benefit from the conversation, and since this is not actually an issue with the webwork2 code. The documentation you linked is now out of date, but this can still be done with 2.18. I can't provide detailed instructions, since I don't have the environment needed to figure out how to do so. However, I can tell you how to enable the WebworkSOAP handlers. To do so uncomment soap_authen_key: 123456789123456789 in /opt/webwork/webwork2/conf/webwork2.mojolicious.yml, and change the value to something more secure.

I also highly recommend that you stop using this technique entirely. This is an obsolete technique for Moodle. LTI authentication replaces this.

Thank you for your answer. On the Moodle side, it wants me to define a WSDL file in the URL for WeBWorK server WSDL file section (Default: https://test.edu/webwork2_wsdl) in the WeBWorK Assignment settings. I couldn't find a field for it in webwork2.mojolicious.yml. How can I define a WSDL file?

drgrice1 commented 1 year ago

The url should be the same (https://your-server.edu/webwork2_wsdl). There won't be anything in the webwork2.mojolicious.yml file about that.

Should Active Directory settings be the same as we did before? I made the settings in 2.18 with the settings in the previous version, but I could not log in with the active directory user from within the webwork.

drgrice1 commented 1 year ago

I don't really know what "Active Directory settings" are or what they should be.

drgrice1 commented 1 year ago

I am sorry that I am not able to be of more help for you. I don't know that much about "Moodle Assignment". As I said, it is an obsolete approach to integration with the Moodle LMS.

Thanks for your help.

According to the authen_LTI_1_3.conf configuration, if there is a user in the webwork via moodle, it logs in automatically. As a moodle user (student), how can I set up automatic login settings for webwork course or assignment content via moodle even if there is no user defined in webwork?

This question is completely unrelated to the original issue. Please post questions about WeBWorK usage on the WeBWorK forums.
