Course Is Not Viewable By Students

There is currently an issue on 4.2.x with the importScorm command, caused by

.  To fix this: 

  • After running importScorm, navigate to the course itself (final link).
  • Before changing the template to the SCORM course template as you normally do, you need to Edit > Links > Publish the link.
  • Then you can change the template to the proper SCORM template. (Edit > Page > Change Template)

Currently the SCORM templates (at least SCORM.Course.Simple.cshtml) don't seem to be aware of this and so no error is shown anywhere in the console or network trace.

Debug the Scorm Extraction (ImportScorm command)

When debugging the ImportScorm command the first break point should be set in CoreClient.Scorm.cs on line 183 (CreateManifestJSFile()). If the sco_resources count is 0, the course either has multiple child activities (which isn't supported until 4.2.x

), or the manifest is incorrectly made/formatted.  If this method is unable to find any sco resources, the package is improperly made, and must be checked on Scorm Cloud (see next section) and/or bounced back to the client/vendor.

Known Issues with Extraction

Recently we have seen an issue were the identifier for the <item> within an <organization> used a Guid which was too long and therefore would fail trying to find the Activity.  Adjust the identifer to something smaller and re-zip the package.  E.g.:

Scorm 2004 Standards

Sometimes, when a course is repackaged for Scorm version 1.2, it may still contain Scorm 2004 pieces, almost always as xml tags in the imanifest.xml at the root of the scorm package. Example:

...

Code Block
Invalid package: The package contains a manifest that contains badly formed XML.  Inner Exception: System.Xml.XmlException: 'imsmd' is an undeclared prefix. Line 13, position 4.
