Given that I'm getting all the same outputs you have included in your email, do you think that my hunch from last night (below) might be correct? If so, where do I go next? To celebrate! - Your moodle-instupg.log file now will have new stuff, showing that Moodle connected to Postgres and created all the relevant tables... - Moodle should be working now! :-) If Moodle is not working now, post the moodle-instupg.log again, and the verbose log of starting moodle (same procedure as yesterday).

Booyahkhshaa! You're the man, Martin. Hopefully I'm out of your hair for a while now. Da Godiya! -D P.S. if i first opened the website (http://schoolserver.lccnjimeta.org) from a non-xo laptop, but didn't log in, the first XO will still get semi-admin privileges, right?

Strange that the DB would have been in a stage where Moodle cannot get it going, and does not give a meaningful error.

[Server-devel] xs-activation update, and antitheft howto
In the last few weeks I wrote up several procedures related to activation and antitheft tools in Spanish. I now had a chance to write it up in the wiki http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Antitheft_HowTo Together with the writeup, there is a small update to xs-activation so recommended: yum --enablerepo=olpcxs-testing install xs-activation cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel

Re: [Server-devel] DNS/dhcp question
Martin, Thanks. I am using version 0.6d5. And I followed the standard installation procedures. Our tech guy set up a VLAN which includes the APs, which point to the XS (my box) as the DHCP server. I didn't get to try the ping command you suggested. I will do so on Monday. Is there anything else I can do? Thanks.

Good! - What version of the XS? - Did you follow the standard installation procedures? - What happens if you do ...? ping -c1 `hostname -f` Eth0 is connected to the internet. good Eth1 is connected to the AP for the XOs. Or, more accurate, the AP for the XOs points to eth1. (I hope this is correct). The AP has to be running as an AP, _not_ as a router (so it does not need to point anywhere). Just connect the AP to eth1 I have two problems: 1) When I connected to the AP from the XOs, no IP address is generated. Probably the AP is trying to act as a router instead of as an AP. Make sure you disable all routing features. 2) We are going to use a hosted XS off site, and I want to configure my box (which is the dhcp server) to point to it. What is my box? The XS _must_ be the local dhcp server. The XS must be local, not remote. There must be no box between the XS and the XOs. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
