Hi, I have downloaded SLK 1.5 Source Code. I rebuild it using MSBuild without changing any of the code yet, but when i deployed it. It gives me an error on the Create an Assignment Page (AssignmentProperties.aspx).

Here's the log regarding this error.

SharePoint Learning Kit Error

Try editing slksettings.xml to explicitly set the mime type e.g. the current settings for jpeg are

<MimeTypeMapping Extension=".jpe" MimeType="image/jpeg" />
<MimeTypeMapping Extension=".jpeg" MimeType="image/jpeg" />
<MimeTypeMapping Extension=".jpg" MimeType="image/jpeg" />

so you could add

<MimeTypeMapping Extension=".gif" MimeType="image/gif" />

New Post: SLK and EmpowerID

RichardWillis — Tue, 07 May 2013 11:22:30 GMT

I've never tried it so couldn't say. It should work OK for users, but any group exposed through Empower probably can't be used. SharePoint groups will still work fine.

Just wondering if anyone knows of any known issues using SLK with EmpowerID as an authentication tool?

Jepps, this one was really tricky. We ended up making a custom httpmodule that said that files ending With .gif is of content type image....

Did you manage to get rid of this image? It is appearing for me also on both IE and Chrome under SharePoint 2013.

colinmeade — Wed, 01 May 2013 16:18:26 GMT

Was this ever resolved? I am running into the same issue on SharePoint 2013 also. The images from the Solitaire sample load in Chrome but not in IE.

Any suggestions?

Ditto. Most of our courses are now unavailable which is hugely embarrassing. We're looking at Moodle. Very disappointing.

Our company has given up as it is really unusable in this state. We are currently looking at externally hosted solutions to replace it. A shame as a system integrated into Sharepoint was perfect , and it does a lot of things right. But the training manager has become so frustrated with courses that are no longer accessible

Does anyone know whether there has been any progress on this? This is becoming a serious problem for us because we have a large turn-over of agency staff, many of whom leave before completing all of their assignments.

There are two really irritating issues regarding this:

The error message is useless - why on earth can't it actually give some indication as to which user can't be found - we have over 3000 with a 10% annual turn over so expecting us manually to trawl through user lists is unrealistic
Why does processing have to abort - surely a warning is enough

Hi,

I haven't got any experience of QuizMaker, but I'll try to answer.

When the course is submitted by the student, the instructor cannot see the student's answers when clicking on user name. The same happens when the course is returned to the student, the student cannot see his previous answers when reviewing the course.

Have you enabled review mode in the quizmaker settings?

When the student presses any button in the course player (ie the "Save & Close" or the X browser button) the course is submitted to the instructor, ie I cannot find any button the student can click and save his answers and have the possibility to review and complete his course in a 2nd step.

That will depend on the package supporting it.

How can the instructor publish a new version of a course by replacing an existing one ?

No. If versioning is turned on in the document library, then the exact version assigned is always run by the student. If versioning isn't turned on, the the latest version uploaded to the library is used, however, if the assignment has already been started, then there may be inconsistencies/errors depending on the changes.

New Post: Can we have username or email address in dbo.UserItem table in [Name] Column?

RichardWillis — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 12:41:49 GMT

SLK uses a custom data access framework which is a real pain. You will need to modify all the functions and views in the SLK schema to add the column, before adding it to the code. Have a search through the code for SPUserId to see how I added that column for the users - although the implementation is actually a table.

New Post: Sharepoint Learning Kit Basic Web Player

RichardWillis — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 12:27:30 GMT

Hi gehbeez,

The Basic Web Player currently only support Windows Authentication. You would need to modify PageHelper to support different authentication schemes. Look at the UserName property, this looks at the current WindowsIdentity to get the username which is then stored in the database against the assignments. You could add a different user authentication method as long as you returned the value from that property.
