1: Some questions/problems with dotLRN/OpenACS

Posted by Nima Mazloumi on 04/21/05 09:23 AM

Hi all,

there are some problems we face with packages in dotLRN and I was wondering if others experiences the same or have a solution for that. I will create bug reports if others can confirm.

- File-Storage notification. The email contains "\n" instead of displaying new line entries.
The notification is created in: file-storage/tcl/file-storage-procs.tcl, fs::do_notifications

- Homework. Somehow when students upload files in subgroups all the files have a size of 0 Bytes while in classes it works.

- Bug-Tracker: The notifications sent by bug-tracker mess up all german umlauts.

- Upload of User Portrait is broken. Users cannot upload any pictures. Server complains "The file you uploaded was not an image (.gif, .jpg or .jpeg) file" even though they are. Tracking this down I found out that the content_type is set to 'content_revision'. Which results to the above described behaviour. The proc that is responsible for that behaviour is: cr_import_content.

File Storage Notifications has been fixed some time ago. Upgrade to the latest version in the repository should help. Same with content repository (to my knowledge).
