This is our technical changelog, aimed at providing you a list of the new
+ features, small changes and bug fixes as well as the security issues, style
+ changes and known issues that remain present. Some changes might have been
+ removed from this list because of repeated changes applying to the same,
+ more generic topic, in the benefit of readability. You can always find the
+ complete, detailed list of changes for the 1.11 and previous versions on
+ Github.
+
+ This changelog is provided
+ version by version, latest versions first, and should helps you locate when
+ specific feature has been made available in Chamilo. If you would like a
+ shorter, more visual, list of features or a list of overall features,
+ please check our version releases announcements on our website:
+ http://www.chamilo.org/. You can
+ also find a list of official providers of services on the same website if,
+ for any reason, you are stuck with an upgrade or want a professional team
+ to help you out accelerate your adoption of Chamilo. These providers all
+ contribute regularly to Chamilo, so you're supporting the project indirectly
+ by asking them for paid support.
+
Note: Some #wxyz references are issue numbers you can either find
+ on Github or (for very old ones) on
+ our previous public bug tracking system (in which case
+ they will be prefixed by the marker "CT").
+
+ Some references marked BT#xyz are developments made externally for BeezNest
+ customers and integrated into Chamilo. The details of these tasks cannot
+ be seen for confidentiality reasons, but the code change is public and can
+ be reviewed by anyone on Github.

Alcatraz (United States) is famous for its time as a federal prison with high security. This version of Chamilo will probably remain just as famous as it is filled with security improvements.

Chamilo 1.11.20 - Portsmouth, 06/06/2023
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.20 is a minor bug fix release on top of 1.11.18.
+
Release name
+
Portsmouth (UK) is almost a legendary city. With historical records
+ going back almost 2000 years and an inspiring current state (most densely populated city in the United Kingdom,
+ historical and military monuments all over, officially an island, etc), and a history of "almost getting destroyed"
+ several times, yet always recovering splendidly, Portsmouth shares a few similarities with the 1.11 branch of
+ Chamilo. This version being one that would not necessarily have existed would surprising events not happened at
+ the time. This version matches the appearance of incredible progress in the AI world which have impacted Chamilo
+ and we hope it marks a great first step for our future history, that we hope to be as everlasting as Portsmouth's.

Chamilo 1.11.18 - Grünheide, 20/01/2023
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.18 is a minor security and bug fix release on top of 1.11.16.
+
Release name
+
Grünheide is a small municipality in the neighborhood of Berlin, Germany.
+We feel it shares significance with this Chamilo version because, as we are preparing for a gigantic jump forward in development as we are nearing the release of the Chamilo 2.0 version, it is also the chosen site for an infamous electric automaker to lay foundations of their massive European factory, which will highly contribute to make our civilisation jump out of the fossil fuel era and into era of shared prosperity, as we believe Chamilo 2.0 (and subsequent versions) will massively increase the potential for Open Source software to help develop equalitarian education for all.
+
Security fixes
+ Many vulnerabilities (more than in any previous version) have been reported to us (see our security page) and swiflty and safely fixed. Thanks to all white hat hackers for helping us out (see their nicknames on the page).
+ We actively encourage all Chamilo administrators to update their system to this version as soon as possible.
+
+

Chamilo 1.11.16 - Calci, 25/08/2021
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.16 is a minor security and bug fix release on top of 1.11.14.
+
Release name
+
Calci is a small, quiet and rustical municipality in the neighborhood of Pisa, Tuscany, Italy. A nice place to rest before visiting the city of Pisa, Calci, just as Chamilo 1.11.16 is a nice and quiet rest before 2.0 (with a few surprises), just looking at the building of one of human's great construction projects.
+
+
Security fixes
+ Many vulnerabilities (more than in any previous version) have been reported to us (see our security page) and swiflty and safely fixed. Thanks to all white hat hackers for helping us out (see their nicknames on the page).
+ We actively encourage all Chamilo administrators to update their system to this version as soon as possible.
+
+
[2021-08-19] (4f13a887) Filter int user_id in is_my_shared_folder()
[2021-04-19] (f65d0650) Security fixes - Disable unused upload form: /main/upload/upload.document.php. - Update .htaccess to disable php execution inside web/ (before it was only web/css). - Add phar extension in the php2phps() function - Document upload, check the destination path to be inside the course with Security::check_abs_path - Add api_protect_course_script() - Add course/user validations
[2021-01-28] (e8332fd9) Add Database::escape_string in query #security
+
[2021-01-27] (d939402d) Calendar: Fix type paremeter #security
+
[2021-01-14] (e4781a7d) Agenda: Add sec_token param in agenda events #security
+
+
Possibly breaking changes
+
+
An important change has been made in the way Chamilo 1.11.16 processes exercises, questions and answers in the
+ exercises tool. We now use the iid field as a unique identifier for everything related to exercises. Although
+ the corresponding code has been well tested, an issue has appeared which only affects portals that were
+ initially installed with a version prior to year 2016. If you are in this case, you will need to
+ run the tests/scripts/fix_quiz_id_to_iid.php script (available here).
+ This script must be edited and line "exit;" on line 15 must be removed, then the script can be loaded and could
+ last a considerable time to execute. It should be failsafe, so if it fails once, reloading it should just
+ continue executing the process. Despite the possible extra effort, we believe you will appreciate the advantages of
+ a faster exercises tool in Chamilo 1.11.16 and the possibility to re-use (*or* copy) questions between courses.
+
A new change in behaviour in the upload of images in the WYSIWYG editor mean new files that have names
+ that already exist on the system will be renamed automatically. The previous behaviour was to warn the user,
+ but this didn't appear on screen due to the WYSIWYG editor.
+
+
+

Chamilo 1.11.12 - Le Breuil-sous-Argenton, 13/08/2020
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.12 is a minor bugfix release on top of 1.11.10.
+
Starting from this release, changes are registered by reversed date of addition (the latest changes first), which dramatically improves the changelog edition time. Because yes, it is reviewed manually.
+
Release name
+
Le Breuil-sous-Argenton is a very small
+ village in the Deux-Sèvres department, in the region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France,
+ with a population of about 500 people. A very quite village, it is host to the
+ Château de l'Ébaupinay,
+ a late-gothic castle from the end of the Middle Age, purchased in 2019 (and to be restored)
+ through a crowd-funding campaign, dipping its overall history in a big mix of weird events.
+ Correspondingly, Chamilo 1.11.12 is a solid but minor version of Chamilo, which comes (much later than
+ initially planned) at the end of a long series of 1.* versions. According to plans, it should not
+ even have existed, and yet here you have it, with an incredible number of quality features you're very
+ likely to appreciate, like many others. Instead of not existing at all, it is likely to be one of
+ our most successful versions yet, delivered to our community and owned by them as per our license,
+ a bit like a crowdfunding project. This version should be a stepping stone before version 2.0,
+ already well in the works but still months away at the time of releasing this version.
+
+
Security fixes
+ Several vulnerabilities have been reported to us (see our security page) and swiflty fixed. Thanks to all white hat hackers for helping us out (see their nicknames on the page).
+
Changes in the e-mail libraries might generate issues if you have variable values in $platform_email['SMTP_FROM_EMAIL'] and/or $platform_email['SMTP_FROM_NAME'] in app/config/mail.conf.php. More info...
+
+

Due to the end of life of the version of Doctrine ORM we use, a warning about a "continue" instead of a break in "UnitOfWork.php" line 2640 will appear on most pages if you don't disable Warning messages. You can also remove it by just editing the line and replacing "continue;" by "break;", safely. However, because this is in an official dependency of Chamilo, we cannot change it for you. The problem itself is not really a problem. PHP understands it, it just warns you because this type of syntax should be avoided. Nothing to worry about.

Chamilo 1.11.10 - Winchester, 08/05/2019
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.10 is a minor bugfix release on top of 1.11.8. Contrary to previous releases, this one has a large number of security fixes. We strongly recommend you update to this version as soon as you can. Most notable in this version are 2 new features in the survey tool.
+
Starting from this release, changes are registered by reversed date of addition (the latest changes first), which dramatically improves the changelog edition time. Because yes, it is reviewed manually.
+
Release name
+
Winchester is a small city of Hampshire, England,
+ with a population of about 45,000 people and the famous cathedral of Winchester. Its very long history dates
+ back to prehistoric time, and was an Iron Age oppidum (celtic settlement) before being overrun by the
+ Belgae (Gaulish tribe later known as Belgians) and this continued during and after the Roman conquest of
+ Britain, when it was given protective stone walls.
+ It later remained a notable city throughout the West Saxon kingdom rule and is currently a midly famous
+ English tourism location.
+ Links to this release of Chamilo are multi-facetted: this version cements features
+ of the 1.11 major version for years to come, its links to Belgium are important (main development area), it
+ has, to date, a bit more than 45,000 registered installations, and choosing an English town seemed fitting
+ at a time where the separation between the UK and the rest of Europe is all over the press.
+ Version 1.11.10 is also more secure, as it comes with a dozen security fixes.

Removals

We have removed the possibility to start WebRTC videoconference sessions in the global chat as the library used suffer security vulnerabilities and was not maintained. We have not, at this time, found any equivalent JS library that would fit our needs and the strict GPLv3 licensing terms.
+
Some chart legends do not show in UTF-8 languages like Arabic due to the library we use for those charts.

Chamilo 1.11.8 - Sayaxché, 15/08/2018
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.8 is a minor, bug fix and security fix release on top of 1.11.6 that contains a series of
+ small new features, including first support for European RGPD. Given the security fixes it contains,
+ we highly recommend you to update from previous versions as soon as possible.
+
Release name
+
Sayaxché is a small municipality in the Guatemalan
+ jungle of El Petén. It is a notable point that requires taking a small ferry to cross the La Pasión river
+ and get from the ancient ruins of Tikal to the modern capital city of Guatemala. This represents the jump we
+ are hoping to make after 1.11.8 to get out of the 1.11 versions and into our restructured version 2.0.
+
+
Security fixes
+
+
[2018-07-24] (385a84ef) Security: Add app/Resources/public/css to the list of directories where execution of PHP is forbidden
+
[2018-07-24] (b0041b62) Security: Add documentation about X-Frame-Options in configuration.dist.php
+
[2018-07-23] (4ffe5edb - #2532) Security: Add Security::remove_XSS to clean variables from $_REQUEST
+
[2018-07-23] (d5129ad7) Security: Update PHP files extension matching pattern in .htaccess and documentation to match all possible forms supported by PHP 5 and PHP 7.
+
[2018-07-23] (1c27a8b4) Security: add rules to .htaccess to prevent direct PHP execution from the corresponding directories and updates security.html with a missing change in the previous commit. Using security.html is still the recommended way to go for security, but in the absence of that, we want to make sure Chamilo is always more secure.
+
[2018-07-23] (6ff87c3a) Security: Add Nginx rules to security documentation, in order to prevent execution of PHP files from the uploadable-files directories
+
[2018-05-31] (d400657b) Security: Fix who is online access: now it will check chamilo settings api_get_setting('showonline', 'world') api_get_setting('showonline', 'users') api_get_setting('showonline', 'course')
[2018-05-09] (d6971923) Security: Check access to "who is online in session"
+
[2018-04-09] (00f3e4a6) Security: Fix work access for teachers and students
+
+
Possibly breaking changes
+
+
[2018-07-27] (6750c5f5 - BT#14687) Gradebook: Rename disable_gradebook_stats to gradebook_enable_best_score and fix behaviour: now the setting will be required to *enable* the 3 last columns of the gradebook results table (avg, best score and ranking)
+
[2018-07-27] (4d67dfb6 - BT#14687) Gradebook: Avoid conflict between gradebook_detailed_admin_view and disable_gradebook_stats
+
+
+

Chamilo 1.11.6 - Poznán, 18/01/2018
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.6 is a minor, bugfix release on top of 1.11.4.
+
Release name
+
Poznán is a city on the Warta river in west-central Poland. It is best known for its renaissance Old Town and Ostrów Tumski Cathedral. Poznań is among the oldest and largest cities in Poland. It has often topped rankings as a city with very high quality of education and a very high standard of living. Giving the stability this 8th anniversary version 1.11.6 has achieved and its high benefits to education, we believe Poznán is a fitting name for us.

Several issues have been reported migrating from 1.9 to 1.11.4. Some have been fixed in 1.11.6, but did not have the capacity (in terms of human resources) to review the migration process in-depth. Please make sure you undertake any critical production-environment migration with a specialist. Try Chamilo Official Providers, for example.

Chamilo 1.11.4 - Uyuni, 31/05/2017
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.4 is a minor, bugfix release of the 1.11.x branch, with a large number of bugfixes on top of 1.11.2.
+
Release name
+
Uyuni is a small city that serves as a tourist gateway to the bare Uyuni salt flat. We wanted to use the name to transmit the idea that we are cleaning up (or laying down) the plans to move from all-timer version 1 of Chamilo to version 2. As such, this version eliminates as many issues as we can possibly eliminate and contains as much clean-up as we can do before jumping to version 2.0. Maybe this will not be the last of the 1.* releases, but it is certainly one of the latest steps before we eventually get there.
+
Security fixes
+ There are 2 security fixes in this version, so we urge you to upgrade to this version as soon as possible
+
+
One fix for unsanitized user input, present in Chamilo through the inclusion of an older version of the PHPMailer library
Dropped support for PHP 5.4 and inferior (now REQUIRES PHP 5.5 or more)
+
As Chamilo becomes more popular, we are facing new security-based challenges that come as consequences of the simplicity
+ that we offer our users. As such, in this version of Chamilo, the administrator *must* enable a configuration setting as follows
+ in order to authorize teachers and students to use iframes (embedding things from outside) inside the online text areas in their courses and personal spaces.
+ To enable those, edit the app/config/configuration.php file and paste the following just after the last setting:
+

Stylesheets and theming
+
A series of changes have been applied to the main/template/default/ folder in this version, so if you use your own template, make sure you update it to use the latest displays (otherwise some pages might fail and show TWIG-related error messages). Most notably:
+
+
A change has been made to include image2_chamilo in the ckeditor plugins in default/layout/header.js.tpl. If you have a custom version of this file, please search for the image2_chamilo text in the default TPL and make sure you apply the change, otherwise CKeditor might not display anymore.

Removals
+
+
We have removed the automated tests generated years ago in PHPUnit and SimpleTest. We are now mostly working with Behat and those older tests were not really working anymore.
(f2ff57db) Add deprecated in main/exercise/feedback.php file. Probably not used.
+
+
Known issues
+
+
IMS/QTI import/export still has minor issues
+
In Internet Explorer 9, learning paths might not show other pages than the first to be opened. We lacked computers with IE9 at the time of release of 1.10.8. Guaranteeing IE9 support will likely require additional services. See the corresponding bug report
+
The Xapian search module is broken. We hope to fix that soon, but not a lot of people use it, so no real priority is given to this.
+
Encoding issues when importing accentuated characters from MS-Office-generated .xlsx files (for example when importing exercises). This isn't really a Chamilo issue, but since some users might have issues with that, we've decided to report it to avoid any surprise.
+
The text-to-speech providers are not supporting a free option anymore, making this feature non-functional - see #1956

Chamilo 1.11.2 - Bari, 01/11/2016
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.2 is a minor, bugfix release of the 1.11.x branch, with a few bugfixes on top of 1.11.0.
+
Release name
+
Bari is the capital city of the Metropolitan City of Bari and of the Apulia region, on the Adriatic Sea, in Italy. It is just a few hundred kilometers North of Lecce, the city which gave the name to our previous version. A bit more modern and a bit larger, it also hosts the infamous Basilica of Saint Nicholas, known as the "Wonderworker" for its miracles. Given 1.11.2 is just a perfecting release on top of 1.11.0, we felt the name of Bari was well suited for this version.
+

Chamilo 1.11.0 - Lecce, 17/10/2016
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.11.0 is a major release of the 1.11.x branch. It is meant as a transition between 1.10 and 2.0 versions.
+
Release name
+
Lecce, Italy, is a charming little city with strong remains of the Roman Empire. By its geographical location, it is at the "edge" of Italy and Western Europe as if, getting to Lecce from there, you were preparing to "jump" to Africa or Greece. We feel like 1.11.0 is the last big step before Chamilo 2.0, and as such we thought that Lecce was a good name to match this situation.

Vilcashuamán was an Inca administrative center, established after the Incas conquered the Chancas and the Pocras.

Chamilo 1.10.2 is a minor, bugfix version of the 1.10.x branch, with a few new features and bugfixes on top of 1.10.0. Notably, this version enables the migration from 1.9.x to 1.10.2 (many bugs were reported in the migration from 1.9.x to 1.10.0, which were fixed within the 2 months to this minor version).

Alsted (55.405964, 11.666896) is a small village in the extended vicinity of København (Copenhagen) in Denmark. It is a very quiet little place inspiring... stability with a little growth.

Chamilo 1.10.0 - San Juan, 16/10/2015
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.10.0 is a major version of the 1.10.x branch, with new features and bugfixes on top of 1.9.10. As a major version, it requires the use of the upgrade script in order to upgrade an existing Chamilo portal. See install instructions
+
Release name
+
San Juan (or the "Old San Juan") was the main (old) harbour of Puerto Rico island. A frequent stop-over harbour for Europe's immigrants to the "new world" (be it Latin America or North America). Chamilo 1.10.0 marks a very strong intermediate step between the "old" Chamilo, inheriting over 14 years of code and experiences, and the "new" Chamilo, still maintaining its history of user experiences, but reworking the building bricks in a way that will make new developments possible faster, so that Chamilo can spread to the rest of the world in a rapid but stable way. Chamilo 1.10.0 integrates several new techniques of development that should improve is reliability, speed and flexibility. Welcome to the New World of learning, welcome to Chamilo 1.10.0! (so to speak)
+
Security fixes
+
+
There were no specific security flaws detected during the development of 1.10.0 but standard development procedures and criterias were followed during the development to ensure a very high security level.
Dropped support for PHP 5.3 and inferior (now REQUIRES PHP 5.4 or more)
+
Dropped support for IE8
+
We changed/fixed several calls to SQL NOW() to api_get_utc_datetime(), as our coding conventions require. This *might* have a small adverse effect of generating a hole or a superposition in connections tracking in a few admin reports. See commits 17c04ed, df95882, b568eb4 and 3b8a26f for details
+
A few languages now get a "parent" language which is not English. In this case, we have based the update query on an ID that we "assume" to be the right one for Spanish, Italian, French, Chinese and Portuguese. If the ID is not correct, you might, in the worst case scenario, get Chinese or Arabic terms appear in a language that is not the primary one, like Galician (normally taking Spanish as parent language). This can be fixed very easily by an "UPDATE language SET parent_id = NULL"; for all your languages, and then re-apply the parent manually to your sub-language if it needs one.
+
"Character set" platform setting can't be modified. It is now fixed to UTF-8 (see #7652). This comes as a decision given the fact that other character encoding types were only there for backwards compatibility reasons, and that the last version with something else than UTF-8 was released more than 5 years ago.
+
Starting from 1.10.0, courses directories will really be deleted when the course is deleted. No more logical-delete-but-no-physical-delete policy where the folder used to remain available for last-minute recovery of resources. You are trusted to take backups when necessary to avoid inconvenient situations. This comes as a decision considering the increasing number of huge installations where ghost course directories become a considerable space issue very quickly, and as an observation that, in fact, this feature is very little known and very few people use it to actually recover deleted course material.
+
The hotspot question type is broken due to changes in the underlying Chamilo code. Given the fact this question type is developed in Flash and none of the developers at the time of release had Adobe CS available (proprietary technology that requires compilation) we have been unable to update the corresponding Flash code. Work is under way to provide the same feature using only HTML5, but it is likely to appear in a corrective version for 1.10.0. If you have an urgent need for this feature, please contact an official provider to get this sorted: providers@chamilo.org
+
+

The hotspot question type is broken due to changes in the underlying Chamilo code. Given the fact this question type is developed in Flash and none of the developers at the time of release had Adobe CS available (proprietary technology that requires compilation) we have been unable to update the corresponding Flash code. Work is under way to provide the same feature using only HTML5, but it is likely to appear in a corrective version for 1.10.0. If you have an urgent need for this feature, please contact an official provider to get this sorted: providers@chamilo.org

Chamilo 1.9.10.2 - Sipán, 19/03/2015
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.10.2 is a patch (minor) version of the 1.9.x branch, with
+ bugfixes and a few new minor features, but more importantly fixes for
+ vulnerabilities discovered in 1.9.10 and previous versions (as such, you
+ can just overwrite previous files to upgrade from 1.9.8, 1.9.8.1 or
+ 1.9.8.2 to 1.9.10.2).
Sipán
+ is a small city on the Peruvian Coast where the remains of the Lord of Sipán
+ (a ruler of the 3rd century AC) were discovered in 1987. It held many well-conserved
+ offerings. We believe this version of Chamilo, containing additional fixes on
+ top of an excellent 1.9.10 version, has its fair share of common points with Sipán.
(2fa39544 - #7370) Fix a few buy courses plugin issues
+
(2fd2c2b7 - BT#9022) Add certificate path to the web service. Add 'add_gradebook_certificates_cron_task_enabled' configuration parameter
+
+
+
+

+
Chamilo 1.9.10 - Huánuco, 25/01/2015
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.10 is a new minor version of the 1.9.x branch, with many bugfixes and a few interesting new features (as such, you can just overwrite previous files to upgrade from 1.9.8, 1.9.8.1 or 1.9.8.2 to 1.9.10).
+
Release name
+
Huánuco is
+ a small city in the Peruvian Andes, Northeast of Lima. This is a special
+ version in memory of our cherished development team member César Perales, who
+ passed away on July 22nd, 2014, at age 27. César contributed mostly "in the
+ shadow" to Chamilo LMS, allowing the rest of the team to contribute more
+ actively. He was a vibrant young man. He will be missed. César lived in calle
+ Huánuco, in La Molina, Lima, Peru, where other team members bid him their last
+ farewell for his last, eternal trip.
+ To this image, this version marks a change of behaviour from the Chamilo team,
+ maturing into another plane of existence. This year, Chamilo LMS got used in
+ more contexts than ever before, with a growth that is superior to any other
+ open source LMS out there. It has become a more reliable and versatile
+ platform, that will serve its purpose, helping making education better and
+ more widely available, better than ever before.
+
+
Security fixes
+All security issues are published and patches are attached on our security issues page. If you think you found an additional security issue you'd like to report, please check our procedure there.
+
+
(8a75f65 - #7242) Fix SQL injection in mySpace/users.php
+
(d64a02c1 - #7272) Fix SQL injection threats and replace SESSION variable with api_get_user_id
+
(58796166 - #7275) Add security token to course copy tool
+
(#7440) Fix a series of SQL injection vulnerabilities due to integer filtering
Two changes have been made to the forum tool code, which might make some of your forums disappear and require a direct database intervention.
+ First case: If you use forums with sessions and have placed a session forum inside a base-course forum category, the forum category will now no longer appear in any session, and as such, the session forums contained in that category will disappear. You can easily fix that by checking the c_forum_forum table for any record with session_id != 0 that points to a forum category that has session_id == 0. This is related to issue #7264.
+ Second case: In very rare occasions, if you use group forums and have had issues with posts appearing twice, then this release will fix this bug, but might also make some forum posts disappear. Although we could not reproduce the error, you should be able to fix it by changing the group_id column inside the c_forum_thread table. This is related to issue #7267
+ This is an exceptional event in the history of Chamilo, and we believe it should only affect very few portals, but we prefer to take precautionnary measures and warn you upfront.

Chamilo 1.9.8.2 - Quipán, 21/06/2014
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.8.2 is a very little patch version with one bugfix regarding the learning paths tool. Considering the fact that 1.9.8 is planned for the long term, we'd hate to have such a minor patch left on the side for a year or so. This will be packaged and promoted as 1.9.8, but the folder inside the 1.9.8 will be called 1.9.8.2, with a change to this changelog file and a one-line change to main/newscorm/learnpathItem.class.php (as such, you can update just this file to upgrade from 1.9.8.1 to 1.9.8.2. See the code change for details.
+
+
+
+
Chamilo 1.9.8.1 - Gangai, 18/06/2014
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.8.1 is a patch version with one security patch on top of 1.9.8 (in the included library for FCKeditor). Please check our security issues page for more information.
+
+
+
+
+
Chamilo 1.9.8 - Thon, 15/06/2014
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.8 is a minor stable version with a series of improvements on top of 1.9.6.
+This version is the first Chamilo version to drop support for Internet Explorer
+7. We insist that you recommend your users to use modern browsers that respect
+web standards. If they *cannot* avoid Internet Explorer, make sure they use at
+least version 10, which respects a little bit more than half of the W3C
+standards (but still much less than Firefox, Chrome, Opera or even Safari)
+
Release name
+
Thon is a small city in the Belgian region of Wallonia, several times classified as the most beautiful village of the South region of Belgium. It is a quite, beautiful place without anything out of the ordinary but made of beautiful, hundred years old homes built from famous Wallonia blue stone and crossed by the Samson river. Its stability and it's position just next to the large cliffs surrounding the Meuse are symbolically close to Chamilo 1.9.8, highly stable but a few steps away for the huge jump to the next major version.
+
Security

+Stylesheets have been considerably changed in version 1.9.8, which might require a little update on your side if you have a custom stylesheet. We're sorry about it, but it was really necessary to improve the adaptability of the interface for mobile devices (which we are sure you will appreciate). If you only changed the logo, we recommend you make a copy of an existing Chamilo style (main/css/chamilo*) again, rename it and simply replace the logo then upload the new style. If you have more complex styles, you might want to ask for the assistance of your web designer at the moment you update Chamilo to this version.

Chamilo 1.9.6 - Rochefort, 04/06/2013
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.6 is a minor stable version with security patches and a series of improvements on top of 1.9.4.
+
Release name
+
Rochefort is a small city in the South of Belgium, that has existed at least since year 1041 and has shown impressive resilience and stability, which we think 1.9.6 has reached as well. Rochefort's Brewery produces a very nice trappist beer exported even to Peru! As we are getting ready for a larger battle, getting Chamilo LMS every day to a larger community, we thought we'd make a last quiet stop and salute the little town where several contributors of Chamilo have set foot in the past.

Chamilo 1.9.2 - Hanga Roa, 27/09/2012
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.9.2 is a minor stable version with a series of improvements on top of 1.9.0.
+
+
Release name
+
Hanga Roa is the capital city of Rapa Nui, the Easter Island. The entire Rapa Nui culture is filled with mystery and assumptions about where and how the first Rapa Nui people came to be on the island, but it is accepted by many that the main strain came from Polynesia a long time ago. The population there is around 3,300 but warmly welcomes tons of tourists every year, a bit in the image of the small team of Chamilo now serving more than 1.4M users worldwide, with a welcoming 1.9.2 version that will help you get more time to yourself...

Style changes
+Due to the move to HTML5, it is very likely that any older stylesheet will have to be updated when upgrading to Chamilo 1.9.
+
+
Styles changed for all forms
+
New top bar added (only for admins)
+
Responsive layout for Mobile Devices
+
+
+
Security
+
+
If you haven't updated to 1.8.8.6 previously, then you will benefit from 1.8.8.6's security patches by installing 1.9.
+
+
+
Known issues
+
+
Document title: The option to NOT use a document title different than the filename in the documents tool has been removed. This means that if this setting was not set to the default option in your Chamilo option or if you have a very old installation that you have been upgrading over the years, you might experience problems accessing the documents. In this case, we recommend contacting an official provider of Chamilo to take this migration in charge.
+
During upgrade, if your database ends with "c_", the installation process will report errors in the PHP error log. This is due to a check on the new c_id field for database normalization, but is not important. The corresponding logging code can be disabled in database.lib.php
+
Agenda regression: because we implemented a much more usable and familiar agenda for most of you, and because we lacked some time to go into the details, we have temporarily removed the possibility to make an event visible to specific users (they are always visible to all the course users right now) - see task #5201 for details
+
Exercise: When reviewing an exercise, hotspot questions results are not remembered see #3980
+
Learnpath: Copying a learning path with embedded documents and exercises from one course to another might cause resource linking problems (images, audio, etc). We recommend copying the complete course and then removing unnecessary elements, or exporting the learning path as SCORM.
+
+
+
Third-Party Libraries additions/updates
+
+
Fullcalendar js library version 1.5.2
+
Twig Template system added
+
Twitter Bootstrap CSS Framework
+
More libraries were added but haven't been properly registered at this time...
+
+
+
Removals
+
+
Removed deprecated "search" plugin (used to work with MnoGoSearch but hasn't been used for years to our knowledge - was successfully replaced by Xapian)
+
Removed the RED5 installation guide from the documentation directory: the supported BigBlueButton videoconference system provides its own installation manual, linked from the Chamilo admin guide.
+
Removed the "Use document title" option - now we force users to use a document title - this avoids many issues with documents names - see #3781
+
+

Chamilo 1.8.8.6 - Rottweil, 20/07/2012
+
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.8.8.6 is a minor security fix, stable version for version 1.8.8.4. If you are using Chamilo 1.8.8.4, we highly recommend you upgrade to this version, either by following the usual upgrade procedure, or by applying a very small patch, as explained on our security issues listing page. The security fixes are all considered "moderate". This means you could loose data (specifically dropbox tool data in this case) and your users might get tricked into providing credentials to potential hackers, but the integrity of your server will not be in direct danger. 1.8.8.6 was developed in a separate branch, but fixes were applied to the 1.9 branch, which means 1.9 can be considered as the follower of 1.8.8.6 as much as of 1.8.8.4. If you have 1.8.8.4, migrating to 1.9 will effectively remove the need for migrating to the intermediary step of 1.8.8.6
+
Why Rottweil?
+
Rottweil is a small medieval German town where the occasional tourist might feel very relaxed and secure. This feeling is increased by the obviously-difficult-to-attack strategical position. Considering the security-only aspect of this release, we wanted a small city name that would represent this more secure aspect. Rottweil has been visited by one of our team members in the past... that's all it takes.
+
+
Fixes
+
+
Fixed long-standing e-mail sending bug (fixed in upstream and documented on the forum and all over the internet)

+
A style-specific switch had been added in 1.8.8.2, which improved the appearance of older style but went against MVC's principles and broke copies of Chamilo-based styles. This switch has been removed, which may lead to the breadcrumb in non-chamilo-based styles to appear as less attractive, but keeps the MVC model safe so anyone can modify the appearance safely from the CSS. This might require very little cosmetic changes from you (in your style's default.css file), but we believe it's for the best.

Security
+
+
Fixed several limited-risk potential XSS.
+
For other changes see 1.8.8 changelog below
+
+
Known issues
+
+
Groups (admin only): When a user is subscribed in a Course through a Group and he's also subscribed in the same Course (traditional way), when removing the user from the Group, the user will be also removed from the Course in both levels.
+
Changed "givenname" for "cn" in LDAP queries. This might break some of the previous implementations of this plugin
+
If you used split users directories before v1.8.8 in combination with the "My files" feature (if it existed at all at that point), you will probably have a problem now, as the code in the previous version was wrong and was saving the personal portfolio file in another directory than the user's. Sorry about that. If you need professional assistance, see the http://www.chamilo.org/ website under support -> professional support for official providers who could help you. And don't forget to keep a backup. If you don't understand a thing about what I'm talking about, you are probable not concerned by this bug, so don't worry too much.

Document tool: when moving an HTML file using the "move" functionality, images, videos and any incrusted file in that HTML will not be moved automatically see #1278

Audio recording, schema drawing, certification generating, better administration features, plugin for videoconference with BigBlueButton and e-commerce with PrestaShop are only a few of the improvements that you will find in this version.

+
Feature #2132: In the administrator's section "Administration > Configuration settings > Editor" some settings are to be used as follows:

+
"Mathematical graphics editor ASCIIsvg" - activates the plugin for inserting mathematical graphs;
+

Security
+
+
Fixed more than 10 potential low-impact security issues in wiki (see our security page for details).
+
+
Known issues
+
+
Groups (admin only): When a user is subscribed in a Course through a Group and he's also subscribed in the same Course (tradional way), when removing the user from the Group, the user will be also removed from the Course in both levels.
+
Changed "givenname" for "cn" in LDAP queries. This might break some of the previous implementations of this plugin
+
If you used split users directories before v1.8.8 in combination with the "My files" feature (if it existed at all at that point), you will probably have a problem now, as the code in the previous version was wrong and was saving the personal portfolio file in another directory than the user's. Sorry about that. If you need professional assistance, see the http://www.chamilo.org/ website under support -> professional support for official providers who could help you. And don't forget to keep a backup. If you don't understand a thing about what I'm talking about, you are probable not concerned by this bug, so don't worry too much.
+
For some reason, we have been reported unsuccessful migrations from 1.8.7 to 1.8.7.1 whereby the course_rel_user table was not integrally copied. We recommend keeping your database backup until you're sure every student/course relationship was copied (comparing the lines in the table before and after migration might help you)
+
Document tool: when moving an HTML file using the "move" functionality, images, videos and any incrusted file in that HTML will not be moved automatically see #1278
+
Hotpotatoes: When taking a Hotpotato exam added to Chamilo there is a javascript error, this bug can be only reproduced using Google Chrome see #3332
+
+
+
Deprecated features
+
+In order to maintain a sufficient level of stability and push innovation
+forward, we have decided to officially drop support for specific features.
+This doesn't mean that they won't work anymore, but it indicates that they
+will cease being improved slowly, until we do not feel anyone is using them,
+at which point (probably several years afterwards) we will remove them from
+the code.
+If you feel like a feature listed here is of major importance to you, you can
+either take the maintenance of this feature officially in charge by contacting
+us at info@chamilo.org or you can hire the services of one of our official
+providers (see our website, Support tab).
+
+
+
Legacy classes - There is now new code to combine classes with the
+ sessions feature or with the courses in a cleaner, more efficient way. We
+ invite you to switch to session mode and rebuild your classes through the
+ new "Class" option in the sessions block and let us know how that works our
+ for you.
+
Virtual courses - This feature has long been deprecated and we doubt any
+ of our user is using it. If you are, please find another mechanism that suits
+ your needs for that.
+
+
+
Deprecated files
+
+
main/garbage/ directory
+
main/app_share/ was previously the experimental directory for a screen sharing application never deeply implemented. Use BigBlueButton instead, now.

Chamilo 1.8.7 - Istanbul, 06/2010
+
+
Release notes - summary
+
Chamilo 1.8.7 is a major release including a lot of new features, mostly focused on social network, the handling of sessions (which will help many educational institutions, public or private, to manage their contents in a more flexible way) and visual style, and a few important bugfixes. It lays the first stable stone in the Chamilo software project. This version is the first one to highly recommend PHP 5.2 or superior, and require PHP 5.1 or higher. Also, this version of Chamilo will automatically convert all your data to UTF-8, which will make it more difficult to migrate from Dokeos versions higher than 1.8.6.1
+
+
New Features
+
+
Full UTF-8 support has been implemented (Feature #272)
+
UTF-8 becomes recommended system encoding to be used. It is also recommended that HTML-documents created with external tools be UTF-8 encoded.
+
For newly installed systems: UTF-8 is the default value of the administrator's setting "Character set". Database tables will now be storing UTF-8 encoded text.
+
For upgraded systems: The upgrade procedure automatically changes the character set to UTF-8. During upgrade database tables are converted to UTF-8 and the corresponding changes to text fields are applied. Conversion to UTF-8 of HTML documents stored in the file system is not performed, this is not mandatory.
+
Note about integration with external systems: Keep in mind that since version 1.8.7, pieces of text kept in the database are UTF-8 encoded. If an external system accesses database records directly, some corrections to contents of the external database might be necessary.
+
+
+
Class attendance (usable in Gradebook), which allows b-learning teachers to keep attendance registers
+
Student certificates allow teachers to build certificates in their own format, using online-built HTML templates
+
Thematic/Academic progress (shown on course homepage), which allows teachers to show how their courses is progressing following a pre-established schedule
+

+
Corrected mailing functions, now they load the file mail.conf.php. Previously the file mail.conf.dist.php was to be loaded by mistake. (Feature #272)
+
Online editor: A new configuration option about editor's background has been proposed by Wofganag Schneider and it has been implemented. See http://www.chamilo.org/node/107 (Feature #347)
+

+

+
Quiz tool + LP + Multiple attempts : Pre requisites will work the first time a student pass the LP.
+ If a student finished all steps correctly he will view all steps, prerequisites will not work here.
+

+
Assignment tool: Work.php deletes all homeworks bugs fixed. Reported and fixed by carlosbrolotobar http://www.chamilo.org/node/143

Dokeos 1.8.6.1 - 08/2009
+
+
Release notes - summary
+
Dokeos 1.8.6.1 is a minor release including just
+ a few new features, mostly focused on internationalization, and several bugfixes.
+
New Features
+
+
Implemented new sub-language feature by which language terms redefinition becomes possible through the admin section (FS#4321)
+
Admin: Terms and conditions added DT#4320
+
Improvements in document tool, allow seeing glossary terms (FS#4337)
+
Small improvements in SCORM export(FS#4300)
+
At the beginning of the installation script, added an imperative check for PHP 5 has been added. (FS#4296)
+
When the system Dokeos is switched into "Test server" mode, a clickable indicator appears in the footer. This indicator is visible by platform administrators only. (FS#4341)
+
A transliteration function has been added. Currently, it is used in uploading files. Files with non-English names get names that contain ASCII letters only, remaining readable in the corresponding language. Rationale: The PHP5 run-time environment does not manage file name encodings, adding such a non-native feature involves too much work. For avoiding character encoding problems, transliteration of file names is the possible solution. (FS#306)
+
An internationalization option has been added for improving sorting in arbitrary language. When the intl php-extension has been installed, various sorting routines exploit it for better sorting. Rationale: The PHP5 run-time environment does not provide native and reliable way of sorting UTF-8 strings. (FS#306)
+
Installation script: The page about system requilements has been updated. Also, at the very beginning, a check has been added whether the mbstring php-extension is installed - see the related forum topic. (FS#306)
+
A new php-based configuration for the online editor has been implemented, see dokeos/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/myconfig.php. Also, toolbar definitions have been split in separate php-files within the directory dokeos/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/toolbars/ . Customization of the editor is more convenient and flexible now. (FS#2867)
+
Online editor: A upgrade from FCKEditor 2.6.4 to FCKEditor 2.6.4.1 has been implemented. (FS#4383)
+
Online editor: Blocking copy/paste for trainees has been added. The feature is configurable through editing the toolbar definition files within the directory dokeos/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/toolbars/ . (FS#2867)
+
Online editor: Preview tabs have been added to the dialogs for inserting video, flv-video, and YouTube video. (FS#2867)
+
Online editor: The audio plugin has been activated by default as an implementation of the "Insert audio / Audio properties" dialog. This new plugin is intended to replace the "MP3" plugin. (FS#2867)
+
Online editor: The simple file manager, the advanced file manager and the image manager have been integrated by default with the editor's dialog system. Thus, they work faster and in a more secure way. (FS#2867)
+
Online editor: Configuration of the mimetex plugin has been reworked to gain simplicity. The procedure for configuration has been updated, see the related forum topic. (FS#2867)
+
Online editor: A new asciimath plugin for inserting mathematical formulas has been added. It is based on the ASCIIMathML.js library. (FS#2867)
+
Social: Added possibility to define RSS feeds inside personal page of social network (need to define an 'rssfeeds' extra user text field)
Online editor: The toolbar icons have been upgraded to those from FCKEditor 3.0. (FS#2867)
+
A solution has been implemented for fixing the "__flash__removeCallback" bug, which affects the media player on Internet Explorer browser. (FS#4378 and FS#2867)
+
Quiz: fixed bug in multiple-choice/single-answer questions results (whereby the wrong answer was saved)
+
Admin: Added courses from sessions inside AJAX popup of courses list in users list (SVN#22398)
+
Admin: Showing full-length course titles in list of courses while adding to sessions(SVN#22399)
+
Admin: Added session name in title of session edition pages(SVN#22400)
+
+
+
CSS changes
+
+
Sticky footer now available in all Dokeos stylesheets. If you own a custom stylesheet you will need to update it, see DT#3549 for further details.
+
+
+
+
Known issues
+
+
Deprecated files
+
+
The whole main/inc/lib/fckeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/ directory should be removed for security reasons

Bugfix: group tutors were not migrated from 1.6 to 1.8

Fix FCKeditor Flash upload lack of usability and problems with IE

Audiorecorder takes a few seconds to write the audio file back to the document directory, so the page

+
+
When migrating from 1.6 to 1.8, some SCORM learning paths might need to be re-imported, which means

+
Syntax and terminology
+
To ensure a quality report, we are using a specific syntax and terms for this changelog, provided below:
a version name, which is the name of a town or village visited at least once by one of our development team members, preferably with a link to the place in OpenStreetmap or on Wikipedia
+
a release date
+
an optional, short history explaining the relationship between the version and the place
+
+
Sections
+ Inside each version block, different sections are laid out to ease the reading of the changelog:
+
+
Security fixes: indicate if any known vulnerability was fixed in this version. This section is very important as each version with a vulnerability fix indicates that you should *really* upgrade to that version if you value your Chamilo portal's security and the data of your users
+
Possibly breaking changes: indicate if any change we made in Chamilo is non-backwards compatible, meaning something will break if you upgrade to this version from a previous version (rather than installing it fresh) without taking some special action
+
Notable new Features: lists (in two different subsections) the features that are most likely to be noted by normal Chamilo users when changing versions, or that are most likely to be directly useful to them.
+
For end-users, teachers and Chamilo admins: this section indicates changes that are directly visible to the Chamilo end user
+
For developers and sysadmins: indicate changes that are not directly visible to Chamilo end users, or that are most important to the sysadmins and developers out there
+
Improvements (minor features) and debug: an almost unfiltered list of fixes and improvements that have been made between the previous version and this new one. We remove all "Minor" commits, all unit testing commits, all minor visual fixes (icons and stuff) and as many duplicate topics as we can, with the goal to give you a series of links to the changes from which you can find all the related changes by yourself from their Git history if you need them.
+
Stylesheets and theming: if you use your own stylesheet or template, you should watch this section to avoid errors appearing because a new tpl is missing from your template and stuff like that
+
Web services: if you integrate Chamilo with some other tool through the use of web services, make sure you check this section to know what's new and what has changed, as you might need to change your integration to make it work with this new version. Of course, we try to make the less changes possible and prefer creating new methods than modifying old ones, but sometimes security issues might force us to do so.
+
Removals: when a tool or stylesheet is not maintained anymore, or when we replaced some library with another, we will remove deprecated files. This is a list of such files that might have been removed or simply marked for deprecation or removal in later versions.
+
Known issues: sometimes we are made aware that some Chamilo features will not work anymore. We will report those here to make sure our users are aware of them.
+
+
+
Syntax
+ Every change comes with a link to the change in our versions tracking system, a link to the reported issue or task (if any) and a description of the change's purpose.
+
+
Tools terminology
+ We use a short terminology to try and group all changes applying to the same tool. We use the singular version. The names we use for these tools are:
+
+

Hashtags
+ In some very specific cases, this changelog might contain references to specific topics, like compliance to
+ a standard or a law. In this case, we will use the "(#hashtag)" format. Here is a list of topics you might find:
+
+
(#legal-compliance): indicates that this feature helps Chamilo provide information to comply with some law (can be in any country)
+
(#scorm): indicates that this feature relates to the SCORM standard
+
(#fresh-users): indicates that this feature helps prevent drama with fresh users lacking experience and prone to error
+
+In the following (unmaintained since at least 2018) historical credits, we tried to put the more recent contributors first, in order to show more clearly the contributions relevant to the corresponding timeline (pre-2015).
+Note: this list of credits has been discontinued. We now refer to our repositories for the list of contributors and reviewers from our different projects on https://github.com/chamilo
+These lists are never complete, and we thank all our community contributors for the regular input they give us, allowing us to improve continually.
+
+
+
Core contributors / Core team
+
The core contributors are the people who contributed most to the Chamilo software in the past. We are eternally thankful to them for having demonstrated a very high level of commitment, contributing their time and ideas to the project. Since version 1.9, we also include non-developer contributors as we consider their help is essential to the success of our project. This list is updated with each version.

+ Chamilo Server Dependencies
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
In the ever-evolving web environment, Chamilo has to rely on
+state-of-the-art third-party software in order to provide you with useful and
+practical features. Some of this third-party software usually come bundled with
+your operating system, but some don't. This means that if that software is
+not installed on your Chamilo server, along with Chamilo, you might not enjoy
+the best possible experience with your Chamilo platform. To avoid this problem,
+most of the software we used is bundled into a typical Chamilo installation.
+
+However, if such a third-party software is too big to be included, or if it
+doesn't make sense to include it for whatever reason, you must make sure it is
+installed on your system. This is the goal of this list: to help you keep a
+track of what software is needed and, as much as possible, where to get the
+required information to install it.
+
+
+
Dependencies - client-side
+We recommend using HTML5-compatible technology.
+
+
PC with a minimum of 512MB or any tablet or smartphone
+
We recommend a Pentium-I as a minimum processor capability for PCs
+
Works on Windows 8 and later versions, Linux (any version with a graphical interface), Mac OSX (any version), FreeBSD, Android, iOS and pretty much any other operating system with a graphical interface you might think about
+
Any modern browser (IE10 and inferior *excluded*).
+
Optional: Flash plugin (only required if WebRTC is not supported by your browser)
+
Optional: Java applet capability (only required for some plugins)
+
+
+
Dependencies - server-side
+
+
Apache 2+
+
PHP 7.4. PHP 8.1 should be supported at more than 95%, but we lack elements of infrastructure to check it fully and thoroughly.
+
MySQL 5.6+ or any version of MariaDB database server
+
php-curl
+
php-dom (usually available by default)
+
php-fileinfo (usually available by default)
+
php-gd or php-imagick (for images resizing/cropping)
+
php-intl (for international behaviour support)
+
php-json
+
php-mbstring
+
php-mysql
+
php-soap (for web services)
+
php-xml
+
php-zip
+
php-ldap (only required for connection to an LDAP server)
+
+Chamilo LMS is a very complex software suite, and some of its components wil
+only work when some specific server-side libraries are installed. The names of
+the libraries below are taken from a Debian/Ubuntu installation, so you might
+need to adapt these if you are installing on Windows, Mac or another Linux
+distribution.
+Please note that, as for the rest of free software, we are NOT giving or
+implying any warranty of any kind that this will work on your system, even on
+the intended Debian/Ubuntu systems. You should take your own precautions to
+ensure all components are installed by an expert in the field.
+
+
Chamilo Rapid (ex Oogie(TM))
+
+
libreoffice
+
+
+
Audio recording (generate mp3 from wav)
+
+
libav-tools libavcodec-extra-53 *or* ffmpeg on more recent distributions
+
libmp3lame0
+
+
+
BigBlueButton videoconference
+
+
bigbluebutton
+
+
+
Resources sequencing
+
+
graphviz (only required for resources sequencing - for sessions etc)
Are you interested in translating the installation guide to your own language? The best way to proceed is to ask us on the Chamilo forum
+ for the latest version – there may be updates to the guide since
+ this version was released – and send new translations off to the translation@chamilo.com email address.
+
+
+Chamilo
+can be installed on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and UNIX servers
+indifferently. However, we recommend the use of Linux server for
+optimal flexibility, remote control and scalability.
+
+
+
+Chamilo is mainly a LMS running (the so called AMP trilogy):
+
+
Apache 2.2+
+
MySQL 5.6+ or MariaDB 5+
+
PHP 7.4
+
+All these pieces of software are free software and freely available.
+To run Chamilo LMS on your server, you need to install WAMP, LAMP or MAMP:
+
+
To install WAMP (AMP on Windows), we recommend the XAMPP .exe installer
+
To install LAMP
+(AMP on Linux), use the Package manager of your favourite distribution (Synaptic, RPMFinder etc.).
+For instance, on a Ubuntu server, use Shell or Synaptic following the
+ Ubuntuguide on Apache and the following sections
+
+
To install MAMP (AMP on Mac OS X), refer to the MAMP dedicated website
+
Make sure you check the Dependencies page if you need to know the requirements in more precise way.
+
+
+
+
MySQL or MariaDB database server
+ You will need a login and password allowing you to manage and drop+create a database. Usually, the default configuration on local computers is
+to allow you to connect as root with an empty password. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to change the password and define a user with access to
+only a specific database. Please refer to the MySQL or MariaDB documentation in order to do this.
+
+Chamilo versions prior to 1.9.0 required to choose between multiple databases and a deprecated single-database mode.
+ This has been cleaned up and simplified to one single database.
+If you don't have "create" permissions for your database user, Chamilo will fail during
+ installation because, to maintain the database clear of any remains of other systems, it will try to drop it
+ before creating it again. This is explained in some detail in this issue report
+
+
Apache's redirects
+ Since version 1.10, Chamilo requires the web server to be able to deal with redirects. This is now very common within web platforms (be them CMS, LMS, ERP, etc) and allows them, between other things, to use URLs in an efficient and user-friendly manner.
+ If you don't use Apache as a web server, go to section "Rewrite configurations" at the end of this document.
+ If you do use Apache, configuring redirects is done in two small steps:
+
+
Enable the "rewrite" module in Apache (on the command line, run "sudo a2enmod rewrite")
+
Configure the Apache's VirtualHost for your Chamilo to include the following block, which will allow .htaccess files within Chamilo to be interpreted
+
+ For Apache <=2.2 (where /var/www/chamilo should be replaced by the path to your Chamilo install):
+
+ <Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/chamilo/>
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+ </Directory>
+
+ and for Apache >=2.4:
+
+ <Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/chamilo/>
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+ </Directory>
+
+
+ Once configured (and maybe this has already been done by your hosting provider), you can simply restart the web server to enable the change.
+
+
+
2. Installation of Chamilo LMS
+
+Before you start installing Chamilo LMS, you must understand that, because we provide Chamilo as free software, many services providers
+ have been able to develop extensions of Chamilo, which have made it possible to install Chamilo in many ways:
+
+
As an all-in-one package through an official provider, certified by the Chamilo Association
+
As an installable solution from one of many hosting providers who support cPanel with Scriptaculous
+
At your preferred hosting provider using remote installers like Installatron
+
Through a Docker container image
+
On your own server, downloading and installing manually
+
On your own computer, at home or at the office, just for testing or development
+
+This guide only covers these 2 last methods. For other methods, you can always ask more information from the provider you will choose.
+
Copy the Chamilo directory in your web server's root directory. This can be
+ C:\xampp\htdocs\ on a Windows server or /var/www/html/chamilo (or /var/www/chamilo/) on a Linux server (You need to create the folder "chamilo")
+
Verify your web server supports .htaccess files (see Rewrite section below)
+
Open your web browser and type
+ http://localhost/chamilo/ if you install locally for test purposes or
+ https://www.your-chamilo-domain.com if you install remotely*
+
+
Follow the web installation process. You can accept all default values. Consider changing the admin password to remember it.
+
+
+
Recommendations
+
+
We recommend defining a specific Virtual Host for this installation.
+
If you have to install multiple Chamilo instances, avoid the installation of Chamilo inside a subfolder, instead prefer the use of different domains or using subdomains examples:
+
+
https://www.my-domain.com/ ( recommended)
+
https://chamilo.my-domain.com ( recommended)
+
https://chamilo2.my-domain.com ( recommended)
+
https://www.my-domain.com/chamilo ( not recommended)
+
https://www.my-domain.com/chamilo2 ( not recommended)
+
https://chamilo.my-domain.com/my-chamilo/ ( not recommended)
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Note: if installing Chamilo locally using localhost or the IP address of your computer during the installation, you might get issues
+ while accessing from another computer. To avoid this, you can
+ apply a little change to your configuration file.
+
+
+
+
Permissions
+
+
The following directories need to be readable, writeable and executable by your web server.
+This usually requires no specific action on Windows servers, but will require a "chmod" under Linux and Mac. See instructions below.
+ Replace [chamilo] with the directory where your Chamilo installation is located):
+
+
[chamilo]/app/
+
[chamilo]/vendor/ (only needs to be readable and executable)
+
[chamilo]/web/
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+Optionally, you can do the same to the following directory if you want to
+enable sub-languages definition:
+
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/
+
+
+If you find a tests/ directory at the root of your package, please delete it.
+This is a development directory that has not been checked for security issues,
+and it should *never* be accessible to final users on a production server.
+
+
On Linux, Mac OS X and BSD operating systems you can use the chmod 0775 command for this (although we recommend you seek advice from an
+experienced system administrator to avoid security issues). On Windows, you may need to check the properties of the folders (by right-clicking on them).
+
+
+
Post-installation security checklist
+
+
+
Protect your configuration folder:
+make sure no one (but you) can overwrite it. You can find the config directory in
+(chamilo folder)/app/config.
+Make it read-only (windows/xwindows: right-click the file to edit the
+properties. linux/bsd/macosx: use the chmod 0555 command). The config
+file is created by your web server (Apache + PHP, usually) so you may
+need to be root user to change its permissions.
+
Configure your Chamilo portal:
+in the administration section of Chamilo, you can use the Chamilo Configuration
+Settings to adjust the behavior of your installation.
+
For stronger security tips, please check our new security guide for more
+
+
+
+
+
+
PHP configuration
+
+
+To get the best out of Chamilo, you need to finetune your PHP settings. Consider :
+
+
+
Configuring Chamilo mail: Most of Chamilo uses the mail settings from the php.ini file. However,
+ if you use a distinct e-mail server, you might need to adjust the
+ e-mail setting in (chamilo folder)/app/config/mail.conf.php.
+
+
Editing php.ini file (on Windows can usually be located at
+ C:\xampp\php\php.ini,
+ on Ubuntu Linux :
+ /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
+
search the word "_max" and increase the following values to optimise the server
+
+
+
+ max_execution_time = 300 ;Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
+ max_input_time = 600 ;Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
+ memory_limit = 256M ;Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)
+ post_max_size = 100M
+ upload_max_filesize = 100M
+ short_open_tag = 0
+ safe_mode = 0
+ magic_quotes_gpc = 0
+ magic_quotes_runtime = 0
+
+
Important: You need to set your date.timezone setting to whatever your server's timezone
+ is. For example, if your server is in the 'America/New_York' timezone, set the "date.timezone" parameter to this
+ value in your php.ini:
+
+
+date.timezone = 'America/New_York';
+
+
+
Note:PHP 5.3.9 introduced the "max_input_vars" setting, which limits the number of elements you can send in one single form. If you are dealing with numerous users or very long learning paths (many items), make sure you set this setting higher than its default value of 1000.
+
+
BSD and CentOS users: these php libraries have to be included during the PHP installation (php might have to be replaced by php{version} in some instances):
+
+
+
php-session: The session shared extension for php
+
php-mysql (or php-mysqlnd): The mysql shared extension for php
+
php-zlib: The zlib shared extension for php
+
php-pcre: The pcre shared extension for php
+
php-xml
+
php-json
+
php-iconv or php5-mbstring (either one of them)
+
php-gd, the graphics-generation extension for PHP
+
php-intl, the international behaviours extension for PHP
+
php-fileinfo, the extension to properly deal with file types - used in assignments tool
+
php-curl, the extension to deal with external calls. Used in the links tool
+
+
+
You might also add the following php modules and packages:
+
+
php-ctype
+
php-ldap
+
php-xapian
+
php-xsl
+
php-soap, for SOAP web services
+
+
+
+
+
3. Upgrade
+
+Before upgrading, we heavily recommend you do a full backup of the previous
+Chamilo directories and databases. If you are unsure how to achieve this
+please ask your hosting provider for advice before you continue further.
+
+
NOTE: For very heavy Chamilo databases, some of our official
+providers have developed improved migration procedures that use more memory but
+process the upgrades much faster. If this is the kind of thing you
+need, we highly recommend you contact them (see reference below).
+
+
NOTE: This version of Chamilo can only be used to upgrade
+from earlier versions of Chamilo 1.9.*. You cannot use the normal
+upgrade scripts from Chamilo 1.11 to upgrade from Chamilo 1.8.* or even Dok€os 2.0
+(which was born after the split with Chamilo). If you need this, please contact one
+of the Chamilo Association's official providers)
+
+
+
3.1 Upgrading from Chamilo 1.11.x (Minor version)
+As this is only a minor version change from previous 1.11.* versions of Chamilo, the only thing you need to do is:
+
+
check that you haven't left any customised stylesheet or image (if you have, make sure you keep a copy on the side*)
unzip the new files of Chamilo 1.11 over the files of the older version
+ (or unzip the files in one folder and then copy the files from there to the
+ older version's directory).
+
clean your app/cache/twig directory: delete all the contents *in* this directory (do NOT remove the directory itself, only its contents!).
+ It will all be re-generated.
+ You can also delete the contents of this directory through the "Cleanup of cache and temporary files " option in the "System" box of the Administration page.
+
edit app/config/configuration.php and change manually the $_configuration['system_version'] setting to the new version number
+
you're done! No other upgrade procedure is required
+
+
Important: If you are updating to 1.11.16 on a system that was initially installed before 2016 (before version 1.11.0),
+ you will need to download this file,
+ drop it in your main/inc/ directory, edit it, remove the
exit;
on line 15, then load it in your browser
+ as https://yoursite.com/main/inc/fix_quiz_id_to_iid.php. This will fix an issue with inconsistent quiz, quiz
+ questions and answers internal numbering that existed prior to year 2016 (version 1.11.0). If your system was initially
+ installed with version 1.11.0 or superior, you don't need to do anything.

+
3.2 Upgrading from Chamilo 1.10.x
+
+
check that you haven't left any customised stylesheet or image (if you have, make sure you keep a copy on the side*)
unzip the new files of Chamilo 1.11 over the files of the older version
+ (or unzip the files in one folder and then copy the files from there to the
+ older version's directory). Note that you should remove the "home" and
+ "searchdb" directories from the package before you overwrite the previous
+ files.
+
clean your app/cache/twig directory: delete all the contents *in* this directory (do NOT remove the directory itself, only its contents!). It will all be re-generated. You can also delete the contents of this directory through the "Archive directory cleanup" option in the "System" box of the Administration page.
+
Go to your portal install page (main/install/) and follow the upgrade procedure
+
+Please note that if you (unluckily) upgraded from any of the 1.9 versions to 1.10.0 against our recommendations, we
+ provide a patch script that should get most of it in order. The script is available here:
+ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/1.10.x/tests/scripts/fix_migrations_1.9.x_1.10.0.php or, if
+ you are using a development version of Chamilo, directly into you tests/scripts/ folder. You should place the file
+ in the /tests/scripts/ folder, then edit it to remove the "die();" line, then launch it from your browser (after
+ connecting to your Chamilo site as admin). You should also remove the scripts afterwards.
+ This script is provided without warranty. Please *always* take a backup before you use it.
+
+
+
3.3 Upgrading from Chamilo 1.9.x
+
+
Chamilo LMS 1.11.x comes with a new database structure in comparison to 1.9,
+as was the case between 1.9 and 1.8.
+Although the upgrade script takes the migration in charge, it might be generating
+a very heavy load on your server during the upgrade, and will change your
+database considerably, preserving the data as well as possible (we have tested
+the procedure many times, but remember this is GNU/GPLv3, and we cannot be held
+responsible for what would happen to your data without professional supervision).
+This is why we *really* recommend you take a full backup of your system before
+you upgrade.
+
+Also note that Chamilo LMS 1.10 unites all language files from the
+main/lang/ directory into one single file by language.
+If you have changed language files directly (instead of
+using the recommended way: sub-languages), you should take a backup copy of
+these changed translations before you upgrade. Sublanguages might also require
+some manual work, but the upgrade procedure will not touch sublanguages directly.
+
+
+
+
make sure you don't have tables from previous versions of Chamilo still hanging around. These can cause the upgrade to fail. In particular, tables from versions 1.8.* could have multiple tables for each course, resulting in many tables with the same prefix. Only tables without prefix or with a "c_" prefix exist in 1.9 and superior versions. Make sure none of these tables persist. Take a backup of your database (just in case) and delete these prefixed tables (drop table ...).
+
check that you haven't left any customised stylesheet or image (if you have, make sure you keep a copy on the side*)
unzip the new files of Chamilo 1.11 over the files of the older version (or unzip the files in one folder and then copy the files from there to the older version's directory)
+
make *absolutely sure* that the .htaccess file of version 1.11 is copied as well
+
make sure "AllowOverride All" is present in your Apache configuration, as interpreting the .htaccess files is very important for Chamilo to work (note that the Order-Allow directive has been replaced by "Require all granted" in Apache 2.4)
+
point your browser on your portal URL + main/install/
+
click Install, then choose Upgrade from 1.9.*
+
once your portal is upgraded, clean your app/cache/twig directory: delete all the contents *in* this directory (do NOT remove the directory itself, only its contents!). It will all be re-generated. You can also delete the contents of this directory through the "Archive directory cleanup" option in the "System" box of the Administration page.
+
+
+
+
+* Styles and images are located in the main/css or main/img
+directories. You can still recover them from your backup if you have made it.
+ Any modified style or image that uses the default style/image name will be
+ overwritten by the next step. To avoid loosing your customisations, always
+ ensure you copy the styles/images under a new name and use and modify the
+ copy, not the original. The original will always be overwritten by newer
+ versions. In Dok€os 1.8.5, we have changed the name of several CSS themes.
+ Backwards compatibility is ensured by the fact that an upgrade only adds the
+new themes, but you should try and use these new themes rather than sticking
+to the old ones which will be deprecated shortly (not maintained).
+
+
+
+
+
+WARNING:
+
+Do not delete the previous Chamilo installation directory before installing
+the new one. The upgrade process should take care of all unrequired folders.
+
+
3.4 Upgrading from Chamilo 1.8.x
+To upgrade from version of Chamilo prior to 1.9.0, you will need to first upgrade them to 1.9.10.x, then upgrade again (separately) to 1.11.x.
+You can find the 1.9.10.x packages here: https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/releases
+
+
+
3.5 Directories permissions when upgrading from 1.9.x
+
+The following directories need to be readable, writeable and executable for the web server:
+
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/ (in order to delete unnecessary language files)
+
[chamilo]/courses/ (in order to move the courses files to the app/courses folder)
+
[chamilo]/archive/ (in order to remove unnecessary files or move them to app/cache/)
+
[chamilo]/home/ (in order to move files to app/home)
+
[chamilo]/app
+
[chamilo]/web
+
[chamilo]/vendor
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+On Linux, Mac OS X and BSD operating systems you can quick-fix this using the
+chmod 0777 command, but if you are unsure, we recommend you seek advice for
+your own OS on our forum.
+In Windows, you may need to check the properties of the folders.
+
+
+
+
+
4. Troubleshooting
+
+
+
If you have problems, go to the Chamilo website and ask a question on the
+support forum. Please read the previous messages first to see if there is
+already an answer to your question.
+
+
+
5. Administration section
+
+
To access the Chamilo administration section, open browser, go to your Chamilo adress and log in with the admin user.
+Then you will see an "Administration" tab in the webpage header. You can manage users, courses, sessions, portal look
+and feel, homepage content, course categories etc. there
+
+
+
+
6. LDAP
+
+
+This part is optional, only organisations with an LDAP server will need to read this.
+An LDAP module is already provided in Chamilo, but it has to be configured to make it work.
+
+
+
Compiling
+
+
+Linux servers: It's possible that you have to recompile php with ldap support.
+Newer distributions also allow downloading rpms for additional packages.
+
+
+
Activating LDAP in Chamilo
+
+
Note: Please check
+the LDAP configuration settings inside Chamilo to learn the details.
+
+
+In [Chamilo folder]/app/config/configuration.php, around line 93, you'll find settings like the following:
+
+// -> Uncomment the two lines below to activate LDAP AND edit main/inc/conf/auth.conf.php for configuration
+// $extAuthSource["extldap"]["login"] = $_configuration['root_sys'].$_configuration['code_append']."auth/external_login/login.ldap.php";
+// $extAuthSource["extldap"]["newUser"] = $_configuration['root_sys'].$_configuration['code_append']."auth/external_login/newUser.ldap.php";
+
+
+remove the // from the last two lines to activate LDAP.
+
+
+
+
Settings
+
+
+Ask the LDAP server admin for the settings:
+
+
+
+
ldap server name
+
+
ldap server port (usually 389)
+
+
ldap dc
+
+Since 1.8.5, you have to change the LDAP settings inside the "Portal
+administration" panel, under "Chamilo configuration settings", section
+"LDAP".
+
+
+As an example, you should find the following kind of values:
+
+LDAP main server's address: "myldapserver.com"; // your ldap server
+
+LDAP main server's port: 389; // your ldap server's port number
+
+LDAP domain: "dc=xx, dc=yy, dc=zz"; //domain
+
+
+
+
+
Teacher/student status
+
+
+By default, Chamilo will check if the "employeenumber" field has a value. If it has, then Chamilo will
+consider this user as being a teacher.
+
+If you want to change this behaviour, you can edit main/auth/ldap/authldap.php, function ldap_put_user_info_locally(),
+and change the if (empty($info_array[$tutor_field])) condition to whatever suits you.
+
+You can also remove this check by removing the condition and leaving only the $status = STUDENT; line.
+
+
+
Protected LDAP servers
+
+
+
+Some LDAP servers do not support anonymous use of the directory services.
+In this case, you should fill in the appropriate fields in the
+administration panel (e.g. "manager" and "mypassword") and Chamilo will
+try to authenticate using these, or fall back to anonymous mode before
+giving up.
+
+
+
LDAP import into sessions
+
+
There is a new set of scripts now that allow you to insert users
+from LDAP directly into a Chamilo session. This, however, relies on a
+set of static choices in the LDAP contact attributes.
+
+The fields used intensively by the Chamlio module are:
+
+
+
+
+
uid, which is matched to the username in Chamilo
+
+
userPassword, which is matched to the user password, although
+this part will only work for non-encrypted passwords for now, but it
+shouldn't be necessary if using the LDAP server as authentication
+
+
ou should end with the year of the person registration or any
+criteria you will use to filter users, so that they can be retrieved on
+that criteria
+
+
sn is used as the lastname field in Chamilo
+
+
givenName is used as the firstname field in Chamilo
+
+
mail is used as the email field in Chamilo
+
+
+
+
7. Mathematical formulas with WIRIS MathType
+
Installing this plugin you get WIRIS MathType.
+This activation will not be completed unless you have previously downloaded
+ the PHP plugin for CKeditor WIRIS
+ and unzipped its contents into the main/inc/lib/ckeditor/editor/plugins/ckeditor_wiris/ directory.
+ This is necessary because Wiris is proprietary software and its services are
+ commercial.
+ To make adjustments to the plugin, edit configuration.ini file or replace his content by
+ configuration.ini.default Chamilo file.
+
+
+
8. Full-text indexation with Xapian
+
+Note: This step will require a dedicated server or a virtual dedicated server as the packages involved are not available on most shared hosting solutions.
+On Debian or Ubuntu 10.04 and superior, you will simply need to install the php5-xapian package and restart your web server:
+
+Then go to your administration page -> Configuration settings -> Search
+and enable the search tool. Follow the recommendations on the page to get the
+complete indexing suite installed. Once you're done, all documents you import
+into your Chamilo portal in a recognized format will be indexed and searchable.
+Chamilo intermediate Administrators training (which you can ask any Chamilo's Official Provider for) include a full review of the full-text search feature.
+
+Note: Xapian's licensing for the PHP extension is a bit different from what is necessary to enter the Debian repositories, so it has been excluded. You can, however, generate your own package by following the packaging instructions on Xapian's wiki.
+
+
+
+
9. Chamilo Rapid - PPT conversion system
+
+Note: This step will require a dedicated server or a virtual dedicated server as the packages involved are not available on most shared hosting solutions.
+On Debian or Ubuntu 22.04 and superior, install LibreOffice v7 (or superior) and start it as a headless server:
+
+In previous versions of LibreOffice, the command above was more complex. If you still need it, please check previous versions of this installation guide.
+
+Please note that this will effectively launch LibreOffice in a "headless" mode (thanks to the --headless option), in a "headless" terminal (thanks to screen). You can later get back into your "headless" terminal by launching:
+
+sudo screen -r
+
+You can then go to your administration page -> Chamilo Rapid and set the host to "localhost" and the port to "2002". Save. Go to your course, learning path tool and see the new icon appeared. Import your PPT. This should work.
+Note: Sometimes, this doesn't work out so easily. You can probably ask for the assistance of any system administrator around with a bit of Java and PHP experience, or you can always ask one of the Chamilo's Official Providers for assistance (ask for a guaranteed commercial contract). The above is *not* meant for production servers with a high load. You should get a real system administrator to look at it and develop init scripts, in a way that makes monitoring and relaunching feasable. If any sysadmin wants to contribute this, feel free to contribute it to Chamilo: send us an e-mail at info@chamilo.org.
+Note: If you use LibreOffice 4, please note that version 4.2 (available in Ubuntu 14.04) has demonstrated to be more successfull at converting documents than version 4.1, which tended to crash when sending a document for conversion.
+
+
+
10. Setting chronological tasks
+
+Since Chamilo 1.8.8, a few tasks need to be executed regularly in order to get
+the best out of your server resources. One of such tasks (and the only one
+around at the time of Chamilo 1.8.8) is the sending of internal messaging
+notifications by e-mail, i.e. when you receive an e-mail from another person or
+from a group inside the internal messaging system of Chamilo, if all e-mails are
+sent immediately, then you might not have the chance to receive them at your
+pace, once a day or even once a week. For cases like this you, as a Chamilo
+administrator, should set up a cron process on the server to check the queue of
+e-mails and send is timely.
+
+Setting up a cron task is easy and there are several ways to do it. We recommend
+you have a look at the Drupal documentation
+for setting up cron and define your own cron process as:
+
+Make sure you have a look into run.php as maybe you want to change a few
+settings there.
+
+
+
+
11. Changing the language's firstname/lastname order
+As Chamilo becomes more popular and crosses many borders now, it frequently happens that administrators want to re-order the firstname and lastname fields in tables, and also on which field it is sorted first.
+This can easily be modified by editing the app/config/configuration.php file, finding the following section, uncommenting the PHP lines and adapting it to your language:
+
+
+for example. The effect should be immediate.
+
+Please note that, although Chamilo allows you to define its position, the "title" field does not exist at this time, so no need to worry about it.
+
+
+
12. Improving files download efficiency
+File download can be very slow when passing through a PHP script to control permissions. One solution to this
+ is to use the X-Sendfile header, which depends on a module on the webserver. Check https://stackoverflow.com/a/3731639/1406662 for more details on implementing Sendfile.
+Chamilo LMS 1.9.8 (and following versions) supports the X-Sendfile headers, but requires a specific line of configuration to be
+ added to configuration.php:
+
+If you have issues with files taking a long time to download, make sure you reconfigure your webserver and add this line. You should see a notable difference in download time.
+
+
13. Videoconference
+
+ Chamilo supports the connection to two different videoconference servers: BigBlueButton (versions 0.81, 0.9 and 1.0) and OpenMeetings.
+ While BigBlueButton seem easier to install, more clearly documented and more
+ esthetically finished, some users have manifested that OpenMeetings
+ consumes less bandwidth, is less restrictive in terms of running environments
+ and offers more tools and connectors.
+ The decision is up to you, but in any case you will have to install a
+ videoconference server separately from the normal Chamilo LMS installation
+ process.
+ You will find the installation guide for BigBlueButton here. Once installed,
+ issue a "bbb-conf --secret" on the command line to get the parameters to
+ indicate in the "Videoconference" plugin in Chamilo (platform settings page).
+ This should make an additional "Videoconference" tool icon appear in every course.
+
+
+
14. Rewrite
+
+ Chamilo LMS 1.10 is the first version to require the web server to allow redirections of requests (and so 1.11 does as well).
+ For Apache, this is done through enabling the Rewrite module and either allowing overrides (through .htaccess) or adding a specific configuration section to the VirtualHost defined for Apache.
+ For Nginx, this is done through specific redirection rules in the corresponding virtual host (server clause).
+ To make sure this isn't too complex for anyone, we recommend a configuration below to help you out in both cases.
+ Please note that using .htaccess is the easiest way but might affect your server load considerably,
+ given .htaccess files are interpreted on *every* request, while a configuration block in your VirtualHost
+ section is compiled at configuration reload time.
+
Apache + .htaccess
+ To enable .htaccess on Apache, you just need to check 1 thing: In a <Directory> block of the root folder of Chamilo, ensure the following lines are present:
+
+ <Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+ </Directory>
+
+ or, if you are working with Apache 2.4, that syntax changed a little and looks more like this:
+
+ <Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+ </Directory>
+
+ In Chamilo 1.11.16, we added the possibility (see configuration.php) to share questions between
+ several courses. This feature, although working great for pure-text questions, does however generate
+ an issue when sharing media files between courses, as one media file in one course will not be
+ visible by a user that sees the question in another course and doesn't have access to the question's
+ original course.
+ To avoid this issue, you can adapt your .htaccess (or the VirtualHost in case you put it there) to allow
+ for media files to be accessed directly (without logging in to the portal). This will also speed up
+ loading these media files, but it introduces a reduction in the level of security, as those specific media
+ files are accessible by anyone having access to the portal itself and knowing the path of the files.
+ To apply the patch, locate this line in your .htaccess:
+ Nginx doesn't support .htaccess rules, so you have no other option than to apply the following rules (note that your PHP backend configuration may vary).
+ These are only the redirection rules to be placed inside a server{} block, as other settings might differ from one installation to another.
+
+ Scott Steven reports that Apache on OS X requires specific actions
+
+
First, make sure you have the .htaccess file present at the root of your Chamilo folder
+
Get to your Apache"s HTTPd.conf file and configure your domain and the fact that mod_rewrite is loaded
+
In your Apple Server app, Advanced Settings, check the box to allow .htaccess
+
+ Alternatively, you can find the settings file for your domain in Apple's settings folder under
+ /Library/Server/Web/Settings to update it manually.
+ You cannot, however, only allow .htaccess files in the main httpd.conf file, as OS X will override it with the
+ domain-specific configuration file.
+
+
IIS
+
+ Users @ullfindsmit and @rozepeda on GitHub were kind enough to contribute to this IIS configuration after testing it based on our
+ configurations above. This has not been tested by the Chamilo team, but the rules look legit:
+ If you have sufficient experience with Git and have installed your initial Chamilo portal
+ from the Git version, you might want to upgrade from 1.9.x to 1.11.x using Git directly.
+ Here are a few tips that might help you:
+
+
Get into your Chamilo Git repository
+
Make sure you have no additional elements that were not commited (git status/git stash)
+
If you have issues, you can always save your code somewhere else and ask Git to put you exactly at the most recent 1.9.x stage ("git pull"/"git reset --hard origin/1.9.x")
+
Once you're sure you have a "clean" local Chamilo repository, create a 1.11.x branch with "git checkout -b 1.11.x"
+
In the new branch, download all code from the 1.11.x branch upstream: "git pull origin 1.11.x"
+
If you never used composer or used it only a few times in the past, you might need to update it (rm -rf ~/.composer/vendor; composer clear-cache) before trying the following command
+
Update composer: "composer update" (you might need to give a GitHub token here)
+
Change permissions on folders app, web, main/lang and main/default_course_document/images
+
Go to your portal install page (main/install/) and follow the upgrade procedure
+ Chamilo puede ser instalado indiferentemente en servidores Windows, Linux, Mac OS X y UNIX.
+ Sin embargo, nosotros recomendamos el uso de un servidor Linux para una óptima flexibilidad,
+ control remoto y escalabilidad.
+
+
+ Chamilo es fundamentalmente un LMS que se ejecuta con:
+
+
+
Apache 2.2+
+
MySQL 5.6+ o MariaDB 5+
+
PHP 7.4
+
+
+ Todo este software es software de código abierto y está disponible libremente.
+
+
+ Para ejecutar Chamilo LMS en su servidor, necesita instalar WAMP, LAMP o MAMP:
+
+
+ Para instalar WAMP (AMP en Windows), recomendamos el instalador
+ XAMPP.exe
+
+
+ Para instalar LAMP (AMP en Linux), use el administrador de paquetes de su distribución favorita
+ (Synaptic, RPMFinder etc.). Por ejemplo, en un servidor Ubuntu, use Shell o Synaptic siguiendo la
+ Ubuntuguide on Apache
+ y las secciones siguientes.
+
+
+ Para instalar MAMP (AMP en Mac OS X), referirse al sitio web dedicado a
+ MAMP
+
+
Asegúrese de revisar la página Dependencias, si necesita saber los requisitos de una manera más precisa.
+
+
+
+
Servidor de Base de Datos MySQL
+
+ Usted necesitará un nombre de usuario y contraseña que le permita administrar y borrar+crear una base de datos.
+ Por lo general, la configuración predeterminada en los equipos locales es permitir que usted conecte
+ como root con una contraseña vacía. Se recomienda cambiar la contraseña y definir un usuario con acceso
+ sólo a una base de datos específica. Por favor, consulte la documentación de MySQL o MariaDB con el fin de hacer esto.
+
+
+ Nota:Esto se ha simplificado en gran medida desde la versión 1.9, ya que antes era necesario elegir entre
+ múltiples bases de datos y un modo obsoleto de una sola base de datos.
+
+
+ Si no tiene permisos para borrar y crear la base de datos seleccionada, la instalación de
+ Chamilo no funcionará porque, para mantener la base de datos limpia de todos restos de otras instalaciones,
+ intentará borrar (drop) la base de datos antes de volverla a crear. Eso se explica en cierto detalle en
+ este reporte
+
+
+
Redirecciones de Apache
+
+ Desde su versión 1.10, Chamilo requiere del servidor web que pueda gestionar redirecciones.
+ Es algo muy comunes entre todos los sistemas web (ya sean CMS, LMS, ERP, etc) que permite,
+ entre otras cosas, el uso inteligente y amigable de las URLs.
+ Si no usa Apache, debería consultar la sección "Configuraciones opcionales para Apache y
+ Nginx" al fin de este documento.
+ Si usa Apache, configurar las redirecciones consta de dos pasos:
+
+
+
Activar el módulo "rewrite" de Apache (en línea de comando con "sudo a2enmod rewrite")
+
+ Configurar el VirtualHost de Apache para que incluya el bloque siguiente, autorizando la interpretación
+ de los archivos .htaccess
+
+
+Para Apache <=2.2 (remplace /var/www/chamilo/ por la ruta de su carpeta Chamilo en el servidor):
+
+<Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+</Directory>
+<Directory /var/www/chamilo/>
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+</Directory>
+
+y para Apache >=2.4:
+
+<Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+</Directory>
+<Directory /var/www/chamilo/>
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+</Directory>
+
+
+Una vez configurada esta parte (que quizás ya esté configurada por su proveedor), basta con reiniciar el servidor web para activar el cambio.
+
+
+
2. Instalación de Chamilo LMS
+
+ Antes de inciar la instalación de Chamilo LMS, debe entender que, como proveemos Chamilo como
+ un paquete de software libre, diversos proveedores (oficiales y no-oficiales) han podido
+ desarrollar extensiones de Chamilo, las cuales han hecho posible la instalación de Chamilo
+ de muchas maneras distintas:
+
+
+
Como un solo paquete a través de un proveedor oficial certificado por la Asociación Chamilo
+
Como una solución instalable en unos de muchos proveedores de alojamiento que soportan cPanel con Scriptaculous
+
Con vuestro proveedor de alojamiento preferido, usando instaladores a distancia como el Installatron
+
En vuestro propio servidor, descargando e instalando Chamilo manualmente
+
En vuestra computadora, en casa o en la oficina, solo para probarlo o desarrollarlo
+
+
+ Esta guía solo cubre los dos últimos métodos. Para los demás, siempre podeis consultar las posibilidades
+ con vuestro proveedor.
+
+Para instalar, sigue estos sencillos 6 pasos:
+
+
+ Copiar el directorio de Chamilo en su directorio web de Apache. Este puede ser
+ C:\xampp\htdocs\ en un servidor Windows
+ o /var/www/html/chamilo (o /var/www/chamilo/)
+ en un servidor Linux.
+
+
+ Verificar que su servidor web soporta los archivos .htaccess (ver sección de Rewrite más a bajo)
+ (este paso es nuevo en comparación con versiones anteriores)
+
+
Abrir su navegador web (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, ...) y escribir
+ http://localhost/chamilo/ si se instala de manera local o
+ https://www.tu-dominio-chamilo.com si se instala remotamente.
+
Seguir el proceso de instalación web. Usted puede aceptar todos los valores predeterminados.
+ Considere cambiar la contraseña de administrador y recuérdela.
+
+
+ * Recomendammos definir un VirtualHost específico para esta instalación, si tiene las competencias para hacerlo.
+
+
+
+
Recomendaciones
+
+
Recomendamos definir un Virtual Host especifico para esta instalación.
+
+ Si tiene que instalar varias instancias de Chamilo, evite la instalación de Chamilo dentro de una carpeta,
+ prefiera el uso de diferentes dominios o el uso de ejemplos de subdominios:
+
+
https://www.mi-dominio.com/ ( recomendado)
+
https://chamilo.mi-dominio.com ( recomendado)
+
https://chamilo2.mi-dominio.com ( recomendado)
+
https://www.mi-dominio.com/chamilo ( no recomendado)
+
https://www.mi-dominio.com/chamilo2 ( no recomendado)
+
https://chamilo.mi-dominio.com/my-chamilo/ ( no recomendado)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Nota: en caso de instalar Chamilo localmente usando "localhost" o la dirección IP de la máquina durante
+ la instalación, algunos problemas podrían presentarse cuando se acceda desde otra computadora. Para evitarlo,
+ recomendamos la lectura
+
+ de este artículo para aprender como cambiar su archivo de configuración
+ .
+
+
+
Permisos
+
+ Los siguientes directorios necesitan tener permisos de lectura, escritura y ejecución en el servidor web.
+ Esto por lo general no requiere ninguna acción específica en los servidores de Windows, pero se requiere
+ un "chmod" bajo Linux y Mac. Consulte las siguientes instrucciones.
+
+Remplace [chamilo] por el directorio en el cual está ubicado su Chamilo:
+
+
[chamilo]/app/
+
[chamilo]/vendor/ (solo en lectura y ejecución)
+
[chamilo]/web/
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+Opcionalmente, puede hacer lo mismo al directorio siguiente si desea activar la definición de sub-idiomas:
+
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/
+
+
+ Si encuentra una carpeta tests/ a la raíz de su paquete Chamilo, por favor borrelo.
+ Se trata de una carpeta de trabajo de los desarrolladores, y no ha sido verificado para evitar riesgos de seguridad,
+ por lo cual no debería *nunca* ser accesible a usuarios finales en un servidor de producción.
+
+
+
+ En Linux, Mac OS X y sistemas operativos BSD puede usar el comando "chmod 0775" para cambiar estos permisos
+ (aunque nosotros recomendamos que busque la ayuda de un administrador de sistemas con experiencia para evitar
+ fallas de seguridad). En Windows, es probable que necesite revisar las propiedades de los directorios
+ (mediante el uso del clic derecho en ellos).
+
+
+
+ Windows: con paquetes combinados de todos en uno como XAMPP, usted puede
+ instalar Chamilo facilmente. En este caso (y si no lo utiliza en la producción), el nombre de usuario y una
+ contraseña para MySQL probablemente permanecerá vacía.
+
+
+
Configuración y seguridad después de la instalación
+
+
+
+ Proteger su directorio de configuración: asegurarse que nadie pueda sobreescribirlo.
+ Usted puede encontrar el directorio de configuración en (carpeta de chamilo)/main/inc/conf. Hacerlo de solo
+ lectura (windows/xwindows: clic derecho en el archivo para editar las propiedades. linux/bsd/macosx: usar el
+ comando chmod 0555). El archivo de configuración es creado por el servidor web (Apache + PHP, normalmente),
+ por lo tanto usted necesita ser administrador para cambiar sus permisos.
+
+
+ Configurar su instalación de Chamilo:
+ en la sección de administración de Chamilo, usted puede usar las Opciones de Configuración de Chamilo para
+ ajustar el comportamiento de su instalación.
+
+ Para obtener lo mejor de Chamilo, necesita ajustar la configuración de PHP. Considere:
+
+
+ Configuración del correo de Chamilo: la mayor parte de Chamilo usa la configuración de correo del archivo
+ php.ini. Sin embargo, si utiliza un servidor de correo electrónico distinto, puede necesitar ajustar la
+ configuración del correo electrónico en (carpeta chamilo ) /app/config/mail.conf.php.
+
+
+ Editar el archivo php.ini (en Windows puede estar ubicado en
+ C:\xampp\php\php.ini, en Ubuntu Linux :
+ /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
+
+
Buscar la palabra "_max" y incrementar los valores para optimizar el servidor
+
Nosotros recomendamos ajustar los siguiente valores (lo que sigue ";" son comentarios):
+
+
+
+max_execution_time = 300; Tiempo máximo de ejecucion para cada script, en segundos
+max_input_time = 600; Tiempo máximo que cada script que puede emplear para analizar los datos solicitados
+memory_limit = 256M; Maxima cantidad de memoria que un script puede consumir (128MB
+post_max_size = 100M
+upload_max_filesize = 100M;
+short_open_tag = Off
+safe_mode = Off
+magic_quotes_gpc = Off
+magic_quotes_runtime = Off
+
+
+
+
Importante: Necesitará configurar el parámetro date.timezone
+ al valor de zona horaria de su servidor.
+ Por ejemplo, si su servidor está en la zona horaria de 'America/New_York', configurar el
+ parámetro date.timezone a este valor en su php.ini:
+
+
+date.timezone = 'America/New_York'
+
+
+
+ Nota:PHP 5.3.9 introduce un nuevo parámetro
+ llamado "max_input_vars", que limita la cantidad de elementos que puede enviar
+ en un solo formulario.
+ Si gestiona numerosos usuarios o lecciones muy largas, asegúrese de configurar este parámetro
+ a un valor mayor a su valor predeterminado de 1000.
+
+
+
+ Usuarios BSD y CentOS: estas bibliotecas de php tienen que ser incluidas durante la
+ instalación de PHP (php5 podría tener que ser reemplazado por php en algunos casos):
+
+
+
+
php-session La extensión compartida de sesión para php
+
php-mysqlnd La extensión compartida de mysql para php
+
php-zlib La extensión compartida de zlib para php
+
php-pcre La extensión compartida de pcre para php
+
php-xml
+
php-json
+
php-iconv o php5-mbstring (cualquiera de los dos)
+
php-gd la extensión de generación de gráficos de PHP
+
php-intl la extensión de reglas de representación internacionales
+
+
+
También puede necesitar estos módulos y paquetes:
+
+
php-ctype
+
php-ldap
+
php-xapian
+
php-curl
+
php-xsl
+
php-soap, para los servicios web en SOAP
+
+
+
+
+
+ 3. Actualizar desde una versión previa de Chamilo LMS (1.*) o Dok€os (<2.0)
+
+
+ Antes de actualizar, le recomendamos seriamente que haga una copia de seguridad de los directorios
+ y bases de datos de Chamilo/Dokeos que previamente haya en su servidor. Si no está seguro de cómo hacer esto
+ solicite asistencia a su proveedor de servicios de almacenamiento.
+
+
+ Chamilo LMS 1.10 unifica todos los archivos dentro de cada idioma de la carpeta main/lang/.
+ Si había cambiado algun archivo de idioma directamente (en vez de usar el método recomendado: sub-idiomas),
+ debería tomar una copia de backup de estos cambios antes de actualizar.
+
+
Important: Si actualiza, hacia 1.11.16, una plataforma instalada antes del 2016 (es decir antes de la versión 1.11.0),
+ será necesario que descargue este script,
+ que lo ponga en la carpeta main/inc/, que lo edite para eliminar el
exit;
en la línea 15, y luego que lo cargue en su navegador
+ como https://vuestrositio.com/main/inc/fix_quiz_id_to_iid.php. Este script arreglará un problema de inconsistencia de identificadores internos de
+ ejercicios, preguntas y respuestas que existía antes del año 2016 (antes de la versión 1.11.0). Si el sistema ha sidot instalado por primera
+ vez con una versión 1.11.0 o superior, no hay nada que hacer.
+
+ NOTA: Para sistemas Chamilo con bases de datos muy pesadas, algunos de nuestros proveedores
+ han desarrollado procedimientos usando más memoria pero acortando el tiempo necesario de la migración por hasta
+ 20 veces. No dude en contactar con ellos (referencias más a bajo) si requiere de este tipo de servicios
+
+
+
+ NOTA: Esta versión de Chamilo sólo se puede utilizar para actualizar desde versiones inferiores
+ de Chamilo 1.9.*. Por ejemplo, no puede utilizar los scripts de actualización normales de Chamilo 1.9 para
+ actualizar desde Dok€oS 2.0. Si usted necesita esto, por favor póngase en contacto con uno de los proveedores
+ oficiales de la Asociación Chamilo)
+
+
+
3.1 Actualizar desde Chamilo 1.11.x (actualización menor)
+
+ Dado que se trata sólo de un cambio de versión menor previa de Chamilo 1.11.*, lo único que tiene que hacer es:
+
+
+ Revisar que no ha dejado alguna hoja de estilo personalizada o imagen
+ (si es que tiene, asegúrese de guardar una copia de respaldo)
+
+ Descomprimir los nuevos archivos de Chamilo 1.11 sobre los archivos de la versión anterior
+ (o descomprimirlos en una nueva carpeta y después copiarlos sobre los archivos de la versión anterior)
+
+
+ Limpie el directorio app/cache/twig: elimine todos los contenidos *en* este directorio (NO elimine el directorio
+ en sí, ¡solo sus contenidos!). Se volverá a generar todo. También puede eliminar los contenidos de este
+ directorio a través de la opción "Limpieza de caché y archivos temporales " en el cuadro "Sistema" de la página
+ de Administración.
+
+
Edite el archivo app/config/configuration.php
y ubique el parametro $_configuration['system_version'] para cambiar el número de versión al número de esta nueva versión que acaba de instalar (por ejemplo, cambiar de '1.11.18' a '1.11.26').
+
Ya está! Ningún otro procedimiento de actualización es requerido.
+
+
+
+
3.2 Actualizar desde Chamilo 1.10.x
+
+
+ Compruebe que no ha dejado ninguna hoja de estilo o imagen personalizada
+ (si la tuviera, asegúrese de realizar una copia de respaldo*)
+
+ Descomprima los nuevos ficheros de Chamilo 1.11 sobre los ficheros de la antigua versión
+ ( o descomprima en una carpeta y luego copie los archivos en el directorio de la versión antigua)
+ Nota: debes borrar los directorios "home" y "searchdb" del paquete antes de sobrescribir
+ los archivos anteriores.
+
+
+ Limpie el directorio app/cache/twig: elimine todos los contenidos *en* este directorio (NO elimine el directorio
+ en sí, ¡solo sus contenidos!). Se volverá a generar todo. También puede eliminar los contenidos de este
+ directorio a través de la opción "Limpieza de caché y archivos temporales " en el cuadro "Sistema" de la página
+ de Administración.
+
+
Escriba en su navegador web la URL de su portal + main/install/ y sigue el procedimiento de actualización
+
+Tenga en cuenta que si (desafortunadamente) actualizó desde cualquiera de las versiones 1.9 a 1.10 en contra de
+nuestra recomendaciones, proporcionamos un parche (script) para obtener la mayor parte de orden. Este parche está
+disponible aquí:
+
+ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/1.10.x/tests/scripts/fix_migrations_1.9.x_1.10.0.php
+ o, si está utilizando una versión de desarrollo de Chamilo, directamente en la carpeta tests/scripts/ .
+Debe colocar el fichero en la carpeta /tests/scripts/ , luego edítelo para eliminar la línea del "die();",
+finalmente ejecutelo su navegador (después de conectarse a su sitio Chamilo como administrador).
+Deberías borrar el script una vez finalizado.
+Este script se proporciona sin garantía. Por favor * siempre * realice una copia de seguridad antes de usarlo.
+
+
+
3.3 Actualizar desde Chamilo 1.9.x
+
+ Chamilo LMS 1.11.x viene con una nueva estructura de base de datos en comparación con 1.9, como fue el caso
+ entre 1.9 y 1.8. Aunque el script de actualización toma la migración a cargo, puede generar una carga alta
+ de recursos en su servidor durante la actualización, y cambiará su base de datos considerablemente, conservando
+ los datos lo mejor posible (hemos probado el procedimiento muchas veces, pero recuerde esto es GNU/GPLv3 y no
+ nos hacemos responsables de lo que sucedería con sus datos sin supervisión profesional). Es por eso que *realmente*
+ le recomendamos que haga una copia de seguridad completa de su sistema antes de actualizar.
+
+
+ También tenga en cuenta que Chamilo LMS 1.10 une todos los archivos de idioma del directorio main/lang/ en un
+ solo archivo por idioma. Si ha cambiado los archivos de idioma directamente (en lugar de usar la manera
+ recomendada: sub-idiomas), debe tomar una copia de seguridad de estas traducciones modificadas antes de
+ actualizar. Los sub-idiomas también pueden requerir algún trabajo manual, pero el procedimiento de actualización
+ no afectará directamente a los sub-idiomas.
+
+
+
+ Asegúrese que ninguna tabla de una versión anterior (a la 1.9) exista en su base de datos. Estas tablas pueden
+ causar errores durante el proceso de actualización hacia versiones superiores. En particular, las tablas de
+ versiones 1.8.* y anteriores podían repetirse una vez por curso, resultando en una gran cantidad de tablas que
+ compartían el mismo prefijo. Solo las tablas sin prefijo o con un prefijo "c_" son legítimas en Chamilo 1.9 y
+ siguientes. Asegúrese de que ninguna de estas antiguas tablas persista. Tóme una copia de seguridad de la base
+ de datos (por si a caso) y luego borre estas tablas con prefijo (drop table ...).
+
+
+ Compruebe que no ha dejado ninguna hoja de estilo o imagen personalizada (si la tuviera, asegúrese de realizar
+ una copia de respaldo*)
+
+ Descomprima los nuevos ficheros de Chamilo 1.11 sobre los ficheros de la antigua versión ( o descomprima en una
+ carpeta y luego copie los archivos en el directorio de la versión antigua)
+
+
Asegúrese *por completo* que el archivo .htaccess de la versión 1.11 ha sido copiado en la raíz también
+
+ Asegúrese que "AllowOverride All" está presente en su configuración de Apache, ya que interpretar el archivo
+ .htaccess es muy importante para que Chamilo funcione (ojo que la directiva Order-Allow ha sido remplazada
+ por "Require all granted" en Apache 2.4)
+
+
Escriba en su navegador web la URL de su portal + main/install/
+
Elija su idioma y haga click sobre Actualizar desde 1.9.x
+
+ Limpie el directorio app/cache/twig: elimine todos los contenidos *en* este directorio (NO elimine el directorio
+ en sí, ¡solo sus contenidos!). Se volverá a generar todo. También puede eliminar los contenidos de este
+ directorio a través de la opción "Limpieza de caché y archivos temporales " en el cuadro "Sistema" de la página
+ de Administración.
+
+
+
+ * Los estilos e imágenes están ubicados en el directorio main/css o main/img. Usted puede recuperarlos desde la
+ copia de seguridad en el caso de que usted hya tenido la precaución de realizarla. Cualquier estilo o imagen
+ modificada que use el nombre predeterminado style/image será sobrescrita en el siguiente paso. Para evitar
+ perder cualquier personalización, siempre asegúrese de copiar styles/images bajo un nuevo nombre y use y
+ modifique la copia, no el original. El original siempre sera sobrescrito por nuevas versiones.
+ En Dok€os 1.8.5, hemos cambiado el nombre de varios temas CSS. La compatibilidad hacia atrás está asegurada
+ por el hecho de que una actualización sólo agrega los nuevos temas, sin embargo usted debe usar estos nuevos
+ temas en lugar de quedarse con los antiguos que quedarán obsoletos dentro de poco (sin mantenimiento).
+
+
+
+
3.4 Actualizar desde Chamilo 1.8.x
+
+ Para actualizar desde una versión previa a la 1.9.0, deberá a partir de ahora primero actualizar a la
+ versión 1.9.10.x, para luego actualizar de ahí a la 1.11.x. Podrá encontrar una versión descargable de
+ 1.9.10.x aquí:
+ https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/releases
+
+
3.5 Permisos de directorios al actualizar desde 1.9.x
+Las carpetas siguientes necesitan tener permisos de lectura, escritura y ejecución para el servidor web:
+
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/ (in order to delete unnecessary language files)
+
[chamilo]/courses/ (in order to move the courses files to the app/courses folder)
+
[chamilo]/archive/ (in order to remove unnecessary files or move them to app/cache/)
+
[chamilo]/home/ (in order to move files to app/home)
+
[chamilo]/app
+
[chamilo]/web
+
[chamilo]/vendor
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+En Linux, Mac OS X y BSD, puede arreglar esto rápido usando el comando chmod 0777 pero, si no
+está seguro, recomendamos que busque consejo para su propio sistema operativo en nuestro
+foro abierto.
+En Windows, puede necesitar propiedades de las carpetas.
+
+
+
+ ADVERTENCIA:
+ No elimine el directorio de instalación previo de Chamilo antes de instalar
+ el nuevo. Usted puede eliminar la ruta antigua, cuando la actualización haya finalizado satisfactoriamente.
+
+
+
+
4. Solución de problemas
+
+ Si usted tiene problemas, vaya al Sitio Web de Chamilo y haga una
+ pregunta en el foro de soporte. Por favor, primero lea los mensajes
+ previos para ver si existe ya una respuesta a su pregunta. Nosotros también mantenemos una lista de
+ Preguntas Frecuentes.
+
+
+
+
5. Sección de Administración
+
+ Para acceder a la sección de administración de Chamilo, abra el navegador,
+ diríjase a su dirección de Chamilo y acceda a el con el usuario admin.
+ Luego usted verá un enlace a la "Sección de administración de la plataforma" en la parte superior
+ de la página web. En ese lugar usted puede administrar usuarios, cursos, secciones, apariencia del portal
+ contenido de la página principal, categorías de cursos, entre otros.
+
+
+
+
6. LDAP
+
+ Esta parte es opcional, solamente organizaciones con un servidor LDAP necesitan leer esto.
+ Un módulo LDAP está ya implementado en Chamilo, pero debe ser configurado para que tenga un correcto funcionamiento.
+
+
+
Compilar
+
+ Servidores Linux: Es posible que se requiera recompilar PHP con soporte para LDAP.
+ Distribuciones nuevas también permiten descargar rpms para los paquetes adicionales.
+
+
+
Activar LDAP en Chamilo
+
Nota: compruebe la configuración de LDAP dentro de Chamilo para conocer los detalles.
+En (la carpeta de Chamilo)/app/config/configuration.php, aproximadamente en la line 93, se puede ver:
+
+// -> Uncomment the two lines below to activate LDAP AND edit main/inc/conf/auth.conf.php for configuration
+// $extAuthSource["extldap"]["login"] = $_configuration['root_sys'].$_configuration['code_append']."auth/external_login/login.ldap.php";
+// $extAuthSource["extldap"]["newUser"] = $_configuration['root_sys'].$_configuration['code_append']."auth/external_login/newUser.ldap.php";
+
+eliminar // de las dos últimas líneas para activar LDAP.
+
+
Configuraciones
+
+ Solicitar al administrador del servidor LDAP los siguientes datos:
+
+
+
nombre del servidor ldap
+
puerto del servidor ldap (usualmente 389)
+
dc del ldap
+
+
+Desde 1.8.5, usted tiene que cambiar las configuraciones de LDAP dentro del panel
+"Administración del Portal", bajo "Opciones de configuración de Chamilo", sección
+"LDAP".
+
+Como ejemplo, usted debe encontrar tipos de valores como los siguientes:
+Dirección principal del servidor LDAP: "miservidorldap.com"; // su servidor ldap
+Puerto principal del servidor LDAP: 389; // el número de puerto de su servidor ldap
+dominio LDAP: "dc=xx, dc=yy, dc=zz"; //dominio
+
+
+
Estado Profesor/Estudiante
+
+ De manera predeterminada, Chamilo revisará si el campo "employeenumber" tiene un valor. Si lo tiene,
+ entonces Chamilo considerará que este usuario es profesor.
+ Si usted desea cambiar este comportamiento, usted puede editar main/auth/ldap/authldap.php, la función
+ ldap_put_user_info_locally(), y cambiar la condición if (empty($info_array[$tutor_field])) a
+ la que a usted mejor le convenga.
+ Adicionalmente usted puede suprimir esta revisión, eliminando la condición y dejando solamente la linea
+ $status = STUDENT;
+
+
+
Servidores LDAP protegidos
+
+ Algunos servidores LDAP no permiten usos anónimos de los servicios del directorio.
+ En este caso, usted debe rellenar los campos apropiados en el
+ panel de administración (ej. "manager" y "mypassword") y Chamilo tratará
+ de autentificarse usando esto, o volver al modo anónimo antes de darse por vencido.
+
+
+
Importar LDAP en sesiones
+
+ Existe un nuevo grupo de scripts que permiten insertar usuarios
+ desde LDAP directamente a una sesión de Chamilo. Sin embargo, esto se basa en un
+ conjunto de opciones estáticas en los atributos de contacto de LDAP.
+ Los campos usados intensivamente por el módulo de Chamilo son:
+
+
+
+
uid, el cual se corresponde con el username en Chamilo
+
+ userPassword, el cual se corresponde con la contraseña del usuario. Aunque esta parte, por ahora,
+ solamente funcionará con contraseñas no encriptadas, no será necesaria si se usa el servidor LDAP
+ para la autentificación.
+
+
ou debe terminar con el año de registro de la persona o cualquier
+ criterio que usted use para filtrar a los usuarios, de manera que ellos puedan obtenerse
+ con ese criterio
+
sn es usado como el campo lastname en Chamilo
+
givenName es usado como el campo firstname en Chamilo
+
mail es usado como el campo email en Chamilo
+
+
+
+
7. Fórmulas matemáticas con Wiris MathType
+
+ Instalando este plugin obtendrá Wiris MathType.
+ La activación no se realiza completamente si previamente no ha descargado el plugin PHP para CKeditor de WIRIS y descomprimido su contenido en el directorio de Chamilo /main/inc/lib/javascript/ckeditor/plugins/ckeditor_wiris.
+ Esto es necesario debido a que WIRIS es un software propietario y los servicios de WIRIS son comerciales. Para realizar ajustes en el plugin edite el archivo configuration.ini o sustituya su contenido por el de configuration.ini.default que acompaña a Chamilo.
+
+
+
+
8. Indexación de texto completo con Xapian
+
+ Nota: Este paso requiere de un servidor dedicado o servidor virtual privado (VPS) porque los paquetes
+ involucrados no están disponibles en la mayoría de soluciones de hosting compartido.
+
+En Debian o Ubuntu 10.04 o superior, simplemente puede instalar el paquete php5-xapian y reiniciar su servidor web:
+
+ A continuación, vaya a la página de administración -> Ajustes de configuración -> Buscar y
+ habilitar la herramienta de búsqueda. Siga las recomendaciones de la página para obtener la suite
+ completa de indexación instalada. Una vez que haya terminado, todos los documentos importados en su
+ portal Chamilo en un formato reconocido serán indexados y buscados. En formación de administradores
+ de Chamilo ( el cual puede preguntar a cualquier
+ Proveedor Oficial de Chamilo) incluyen una revisión
+ completa de la función de búsqueda de texto completo.
+
+
+
+
9. Chamilo Rapid - sistema conversion PPT
+
+ Nota: Este paso requiere un servidor dedicado o un servidor dedicado virtual ya que los paquetes involucrados
+ no están disponibles en la mayoría de soluciones de hosting compartido. (Consulte con su proveedor):
+
+En Debian o Ubuntu 22.04 y superior, instale LibreOffice v7 (o superior) e inícielo como un servidor en segundo plano:
+
+En versiones previas de LibreOffice, el comando anterior era más complejo. Si lo necesita, verifique versiones anteriores de esta guía de instalación.
+
+Tenga en cuenta que esto ejecutará LibreOffice en modo "headless" (gracias a la opción --headless), en un terminal
+"headless" (gracias a la pantalla). Tu puedes posteriormente regresar a tu terminal "headless" ejecutando:
+
+sudo screen -r
+
+
+ A continuación, vaya a la página de administración -> Chamilo Rapid y establecer el host a "localhost" y
+ el puerto a "2002". Guarde los cambios. Vaya a su curso, en la pantalla de herramientas de aprendizaje y verá
+ que apareció un nuevo icono. Importar tu PPT. Esto debería funcionar.
+
+
+ Nota: A veces, esto no se resuelve tan fácilmente. Usted probablemente tenga que solicitar la asistencia
+ de algún administrador de sistemas con un poco de experiencia en Java y PHP, o siempre podrá preguntar a uno de
+ los proveedores oficiales de Chamilo para asistirle (pregunte por un contrato comercial garantizado).
+ Nota: Si usa la versión 4 de LibreOffice, es importante notar que la versión 4.2 (disponible en
+ Ubuntu 14.04) ha mostrado resultados considerablemente más exitosos al momento de convertir documentos que la
+ versión 4.1 (disponible en Ubuntu 13.10), la cual tiene tendencia a colgarse durante las conversiones.
+
+
+
+
10. Configuración de tareas programadas
+
+ Desde Chamilo 1.8.8, algunas tareas necesitan ejecutarse con regularidad con el fin de obtener lo mejor de los
+ recursos del servidor. Una de las tareas de este tipo (y el único en todo en el momento de Chamilo 1.8.8) es el
+ envío de notificaciones de mensajería interna por e-mail, es decir, cuando usted recibe un correo electrónico de
+ otra persona o de un grupo dentro de la mensajería interna del sistema de Chamilo, si se envían todos los e-mails
+ inmediatamente, puede que no llegue a recibir el correo a su ritmo, una vez al día o una vez a la semana.
+ Para casos como este, como administrador de Chamilo, debe configurar un proceso cron en el servidor para comprobar
+ la cola de mensajes de correo electrónico y enviarlo puntualmente.
+
+Configurar una tarea de cron es fácil y hay varias maneras de hacerlo. Le recomendamos echar un vistazo a la
+documentación de Drupal para configurar el cron y definir su propio proceso de cron como:
+
+ Asegúrese de revisar el run.php tal vez desee cambiar algunas algunas opciones de configuración.
+
+
+
+
11. Cambiando el orden del nombre/apellido en el idioma
+
+ Como Chamilo se hace más popular y atraviesa muchas fronteras ahora, es frecuente que los administradores
+ quieran pedir cambiar el orden del nombre y apellido en los campos de las tablas, y también en qué campo se
+ pondrá en primer lugar.
+
+
+ Esto fácilmente se puede modificar editando el archivo app/config/configuration.php, encontrando la siguiente
+ sección, descomentando las líneas PHP y adaptándolas a su idioma:
+
+La descarga de archivos puede ser muy lenta al pasar a través de un script PHP para controlar los permisos.
+Una solución para esto es usar la cabecera X-Sendfile, que depende de un módulo en el servidor web.
+
+ Consultar https://stackoverflow.com/a/3731639/1406662 para obtener más información sobre la implementación de Sendfile
+.
+Chamilo LMS 1.9.8 (y versiones siguientes) es compatible con las cabeceras X-Sendfile, pero requiere una línea
+específica de configuración para ser agregado a configuration.php:
+
+Si tiene problemas con los archivos que tardan mucho tiempo en descargarse, asegúrese de reconfigurar su
+servidor web y agregar esta línea. Debería ver una diferencia notable en el tiempo de descarga.
+
+
+
13. Videoconferencia
+
+ Chamilo admite la conexión a dos servidores de videoconferencia diferentes:
+ BigBlueButton (versiones 0.81, 0.9 y 1.0) y OpenMeetings.
+ Aunque BigBlueButton parece más fácil de instalar, más documentado y más estéticamente acabado, algunos usuarios
+ han manifestado que OpenMeetings consume menos ancho de banda, es menos restrictivo en términos de entornos en
+ ejecución y ofrece más herramientas y conectores.
+ La decisión depende de usted, pero en cualquier caso tendrá que instalar un servidor de videoconferencia
+ por separado del proceso normal de instalación de Chamilo LMS.
+ Encontrarás una guía de instalación aquí.
+ Una vez instalados, ejecute un "bbb-conf --secret" sobre línea de comandos para obtener los parámetros que se
+ solicitan desde la configuración del plugin de la videoconferencia.
+ Esto debería hacer que aparezca un icono adicional de la herramienta "Videoconferencia" en cada curso.
+
+
+
+
14. Rewrite
+
+ Chamilo LMS 1.10 es la primera versión que requiere que el servidor web permita las redirecciones de las solicitudes
+ (y, por lo tanto, también lo hace 1.11).
+ Para Apache, esto se hace habilitando el módulo Rewrite y permitiendo reemplazos (a través de .htaccess) o agregando
+ una sección de configuración específica al VirtualHost definido para Apache.
+ Para Nginx, esto se hace a través de reglas de redirección específicas en el virtual host correspondiente
+ (cláusula de servidor).
+
+
+ Para asegurarse de que esto no sea demasiado complejo para nadie, recomendamos una configuración a continuación
+ para ayudarlo en ambos casos. Tenga en cuenta que el uso de .htaccess es la manera más fácil pero puede
+ afectar considerablemente la carga de su servidor, dado que los archivos .htaccess se interpretan en *cada*
+ solicitud, mientras que un bloque de configuración en su sección VirtualHost se compila en el momento de la
+ recarga de la configuración.
+
+
Apache + .htaccess
+
+ Para habilitar .htaccess en Apache, solo tiene que marcar 1 cosa: en un bloque <Directory> de la carpeta
+ raíz de Chamilo, asegúrese de que las siguientes líneas estén presentes:
+
+
+<Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+</Directory>
+
+ o, si está trabajando con Apache 2.4, esa sintaxis cambió un poco y se parece más a esto:
+
+<Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+</Directory>
+
Nota especial para compartir preguntas entre cursos
+ En Chamilo 1.11.16, hemos añadido la posibilidad (ver configuration.php) de compartir preguntas entre
+ distintos cursos. Esta funcionalidad, aunque funcione bien para preguntas de tipo texto únicamente,
+ genera noobstante un problema cuando se comparten elementos de tipo multimedia entre cursos, ya que un
+ recurso multimedia en un curso no será visible por un usuario que ve esta pregunta desde otro curso y
+ no tiene acceso al curso de origen.
+ Para evitar este problema, puede adaptar su .htacess (o el VirtualHost si lo ha puesto ahí) para
+ permitir el acceso directo a los archivos de tipo multimedia (sin logearse en el portal). Esto también
+ acelerará la carga de estos archivos multimedia, pero introduce una reducción de nivel de seguridad,
+ porque estos archivos ya se ponen disponibles para cualquier persona que tenga acceso a la página
+ principal del portal y conozca la ruta exacta de estos archivos.
+ Para aplicar el parche, ubique esta línea en su .htaccess:
+Nginx no es compatible con las reglas de .htaccess, por lo que no tiene otra opción que aplicar las siguientes reglas
+(tenga en cuenta que la configuración de back-end de PHP puede variar). Estas son solo las reglas de redireccionamiento
+que se colocarán dentro de un bloque de servidor {}, ya que otras configuraciones pueden diferir de una instalación a otra.
+
+ Scott Steven informa que Apache en OS X requiere acciones específicas
+
+
+
Primero, asegúrese de tener el archivo .htaccess presente en la raíz de su carpeta Chamilo
+
Acceda al archivo HTTPd.conf de su Apache y configure su dominio y el hecho de que se carga mod_rewrite
+
En su aplicación de servidor Apple, Configuración avanzada, marque la casilla para permitir .htaccess
+
+
+ Alternativamente, puede encontrar el archivo de configuración para su dominio en la carpeta de configuración
+ de Apple en /Library/Server/Web/Settings para actualizarlo manualmente.
+ Sin embargo, no puede permitir archivos .htaccess en el archivo httpd.conf principal, ya que OS X
+ lo reemplazará con el archivo de configuración específico del dominio.
+
+
IIS
+
+ Los usuarios @ullfindsmit y @rozepeda en Github fueron amables en compartirnos estas reglas de configuración de IIS
+ luego de probarlas basado en nuestras configuraciones anteriores. No han sido probadas directamente por el
+ equipo de Chamilo, pero las reglas usadas parecen tener lo necesario:
+ Si tiene suficiente experiencia con Git y ha instalado su portal inicial de Chamilo desde la versión de Git,
+ es posible que desee actualizar de 1.9.x a 1.11.x usando Git directamente.
+ Aquí hay algunos consejos que pueden ayudarlo:
+
+
+
Entra en tu repositorio de Chamilo Git
+
Asegúrate de no tener elementos adicionales que no se hayan comprometido (git status / git stash))
+
ISi tiene problemas, siempre puede guardar su código en otro lugar y pedirle a Git que lo coloque exactamente
+ en la etapa 1.9.x más reciente ("git pull" / "git reset --hard origin/1.9.x")
+
+ Una vez que esté seguro de tener un repositorio local "limpio" de Chamilo, cree una rama 1.11.x
+ con "git checkout -b 1.11.x"
+
+

+
+
+ Chamilo peut être installé sous Windows, Linux, Max OS X et serveurs UNIX
+ indifféremment. Cela dit, nous recommandons activement l'utilisation d'un
+ serveur Linux pour sa flexibilité optimale, son facile contrôle à distance
+ et sa capacité de redimensionnement. En particulier, nous recommandons la
+ distribution Debian (ou sa petite soeur Ubuntu)
+
+
+
+ Chamilo est un système de gestion de l'apprentissage (LMS) qui fonctionne
+ principallement sur base d'un serveur web (Apache 2.2+), de MySQL 5.6+ ou de MariaDB 5+
+ (5 ou 10) et de PHP 7.4.
+
+
+
+
+ Tous ces éléments logiciels sont sous licence de logiciels libres et sont
+ disponibles gratuitement.
+
+
+
+ Pour faire fonctionner Chamilo LMS sur votre serveur,
+ il est suggéré d'installer WAMP, LAMP ou MAMP (ou leurs composants
+ individuellement):
+
+
+
Pour installer WAMP (AMP sous Windows), nous
+ recommandons le paquet
+ XAMPP en
+ installateur ".exe"
+
+
Pour installer LAMP
+ (AMP sous Linux), utilisez le système de gestion de paquets de votre
+ distribution préférée (apt, Synaptic, RPMFinder, yum etc.). Par exemple,
+ sur un serveur Ubuntu, vous pouvez utiliser le Shell (terminal) ou
+ Synaptic via le guide
+
+ Ubuntuguide on Apache et les sections suivantes du présent guide/li>
+
+
Pour installer MAMP (AMP sur Mac OS X),
+ référez-vous au site dédié de
+ MAMP
+
+
Assurez-vous de vérifier les
+ dépendances si vous
+ avez besoin de connaîtres les pré-requis de façon plus précise.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Serveurs de base de données MySQL ou MariaDB
+
+ Vous aurez besoin d'un login et d'un mot de passe pour gérer et supprimer+créer une base
+ de données. Généralement, la configuration par défaut sur des ordinateurs
+ locaux est de permettre la connexion comme utilisateur root avec un mot de passe
+ vide. Il est FORTEMENT RECOMMANDÉ de modifier le mot de passe et de définir un
+ utilisateur avec un accès à une (et une seule) base de données spécifique.
+ Veuillez vous référer à la documentation de MySQL ou MariaDB pour ce faire.
+
+
+
+ Les versions de Chamilo antérieures à la 1.9.0 nécessitaient de choisir entre une installation sur plusieurs bases
+ et une installation obsolète sur une seule base. Ca a été clarifié et simplifié par l'usage d'une seule base de données.
+
+ Si vous ne disposez pas des permissions de suppression+création de la base de
+ données choisie, Chamilo ne pourra pas terminer l'installation car, pour éviter tout déchêt d'une
+ version antérieure de Chamilo ou d'un autre système, nous supprimons d'abord la base de données avant
+ de la recréer. C'est expliqué dans un peu plus de détail dans cette demande
+
+
+
Redirections d'Apache
+
+ Depuis sa version 1.10, Chamilo exige que le serveur web puisse gérer les redirections. Il s'agit d'un pré-requis très commun de nos jours pour les applications web (autant CMS que LMS, ERP, etc) qui permet, entre autres, l'utilisation intelligente et user-friendly des URLs.
+ Si vous utilisez un autre serveur web qu'Apache, dirigez-vous à la section "Configuration de la réécriture" en fin de ce document.
+ Si vous utilisez Apache, la configuration des redirections se fait en deux étapes simples:
+
+
Activer le module "rewrite" d'Apache (en ligne de commande, faites simplement un "sudo a2enmod rewrite")
+
Configurer le VirtualHost d'Apache pour qu'il inclue le bloc suivant, ce qui permettra l'interprétation des fichiers .htaccess
+
+ Pour Apache <=2.2 (remplacez /var/www/chamilo par le chemin vers votre répertoire de Chamilo):
+
+ <Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/chamilo/>
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+ </Directory>
+
+ et pour Apache >=2.4:
+
+ <Directory />
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/chamilo/>
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+ </Directory>
+
+
+ Une fois configurée cette partie (qui est peut-être déjà mise en place par votre fournisseur d'hébergement), il suffit de redémarrer le serveur web pour activer la modification.
+
+
+
+
2. Installation de Chamilo LMS
+
+
+ Avant d'installer Chamilo LMS, vous devez comprendre que du fait que Chamilo est un logiciel libre,
+ de nombreux prestataires de service ont été en mesure de développer des extensions pour Chamilo,
+ qui ont rendu son installation possible par différents biais :
+
+
Comme un paquet "tout-compris" fourni par un fournisseur officiel certifié par l'association Chamilo
+
Comme une solution installable depuis de nombreux hébergeurs supportant cPanel et Scriptaculous
+
Sur votre hébergeur préféré en utilisant des installateurs distants comme Installatron
+
Sur votre propre serveur, en le téléchargeant et l'installant manuellement
+
Sur votre ordinateur, à la maison ou au bureau, juste pour tester et développer
+
+ Ce guide couvre uniquement les deux dernières méthodes. Pour les premières, veuillez consulter votre fournisseur de services pour plus d'infos.
+
+ Pour installer Chamilo LMS, suivez ces 6 étapes :
+
+
Copiez le répertoire de Chamilo dans le répertoire racine de votre serveur web.
+ Celui-ci peut se trouver dans C:\xampp\htdocs\ sur
+ une machine Windows avec WAMP, ou dans /var/www/html/ (ou /var/www/) sur un serveur Linux
+
Vérifiez que votre serveur web supporte les .htaccess (Voir la section "Configuration de la réécriture" plus bas)
+
Ouvrez votre navigateur (Firefox, Chrome, ...) et tapez l'adresse suivante
+ http://localhost/chamilo/ si vous l'avez installé localement ou
+ https://www.domain.com/chamilo/ si vous l'avez installé à distance*
+
+
+
Suivez le processus d'installation. Vous pouvez accepter toutes les
+ valeurs par défaut. Pensez à modifier le mot de passe d'administrateur
+ afin de vous en souvenir plus tard.
+
+ * Nous recommandons de définir un Virtual Host spécifique pour cette installation, si vous avez les compétences pour ce faire
+
+ Note: si vous installez Chamilo localement en utilisant
+ "localhost" ou l'adresse IP de votre ordinateur durant l'installation, vous
+ pourriez rencontrer des difficultés lors de l'accès depuis d'autres ordinateurs.
+ Pour éviter ça, vous pouvez
+ appliquer une petite modification à votre
+ fichier de configuration.
+
+ Les répertoires suivants doivent êtres lisibles, éditables et exécutables par votre serveur web.
+
+ Note: Cela ne requiert généralement pas de modification spécifique
+ sous Windows (ce qui est d'ailleurs l'une des raisons principales pour
+ l'existence d'autant de virus et malware pour ce système d'exploitation,
+ mais cela demande l'utilisation de "chmod" sous Linux et Mac. Dans ces
+ derniers cas, veuillez suivre les instructions qui suivent.
+
+ Remplacez [chamilo] par le répertoire où vous avez placé le contenu du zip:
+
+
[chamilo]/app/
+
[chamilo]/vendor/ (nécessite seulement d'être lisible et exécutable)
+
[chamilo]/web/
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+ Optionnellement, vous pouvez faire la même chose pour les répertoires suivants
+ si vous souhaitez permettre l'envoi de styles CSS ou la définition de nouvelles
+ langues par les administrateurs de Chamilo:
+
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/
+
+
+
+ Si vous trouvez un répertoire tests/ à la racine, veuillez le supprimer.
+ Il s'agit d'un répertoire de développement qui ne bénéficie pas des
+ vérifications de sécurité nécessaires pour un système en production. Il ne
+ devrait en tout cas *jamais* être accessible aux utilisateurs finaux sur un
+ système en production.
+
+
+
+
Sous les systèmes d'exploitation Linux, Mac OS X et BSD, vous pouvez utiliser
+ la commande chmod 0775 pour modifier les permissions, bien que nous
+ recommandions, pour des raisons de sécurité, de cherchez l'assistance d'un
+ administrateur système expérimenté pour le faire.
+ Sous Windows, vous pourriez avoir besoin de vérifier les propriétés de ces
+ répertoires (en cliquant dessus avec le bouton droit de la souris).
+
+
+
Sécurité : liste à vérifier après l'installation
+
+
+
+
Protégez votre répertoire de configuration:
+ assurez-vous que personne (à part vous) ne puisse l'éditer.
+ Vous trouverez le répertoire de configuration dans (chamilo folder)/app/config.
+ Rendez-le lisible uniquement (windows/xwindows: click-droit sur le répertoire
+ pour en éditer les propriétés - Linux/BSD/MacOSX: utilisez la commande "chmod -r 0555".
+ Le fichier de configuration (main/inc/conf/configuration.php) est créé par votre serveur webThe config
+ file is created by your web server (Apache + PHP, usually) so you may
+ need to be root user to change its permissions.
+
+
Configurez votre installation de Chamilo:
+ dans la section d'administration de Chamilo, vous pouvez utiliser les paramètres
+ de configuration pour ajuster le comportement de votre installation.
+
+
Des astuces pour une sécurité plus forte sont disponibles dans notre nouveau guide de sécurité
+
+
+
+
+
+
Configuration de PHP
+
+
+ Pour obtenir le meilleur de votre installation de Chamilo, vous devez configurer vos paramètres PHP:
+
+
+
+ Configurer les mails de Chamilo : la plupart des portails Chamilo utilisent les propriétés mail définies dans le fichier php.ini.
+ Cependant si vous utilisez un serveur mail distinct, vous voudrez peut-être ajuster les propriétés mail
+ dans (chamilo folder)/app/config/mail.conf.php
+
+
Editez le fichier php.ini (sous Windows, il devrait se trouver dans
+ C:\xampp\php\php.ini,
+ et sous Debian ou Ubuntu (Linux) :
+ /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
+
cherchez les mots contenant "_max" et augmentez les deux valeurs pour optimiser le serveur
+
nous recommandons les valeurs suivantes :
+
+
+
+ max_execution_time = 300 ;Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
+ max_input_time = 600 ;Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
+ memory_limit = 128M ;Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)
+ post_max_size = 100M
+ upload_max_filesize = 100M;
+ short_open_tag = Off
+ safe_mode = Off
+ magic_quotes_gpc = Off
+ magic_quotes_runtime = Off
+
+
+
+
+ Important :
+ Vous aurez besoin de définir votre date.timezone en fonction de votre fuseau horaire.
+ Par exemple si votre serveur se trouve dans la zone America/New_York, indiquez cette valeur pour
+ le paramètre date.timezone du fichier php.ini :
+
+
+
+ date.timezone = 'America/New_York'
+
+
+
Note: PHP 5.3.9 introduit un nouveau paramètre appelé
+ "max_input_vars", qui limite le nombre d'éléments que vous pouvez envoyer au
+ travers d'un formulaire déterminé. Si vous devez gérer de grandes quantités
+ d'utilisateurs ou de longs parcours d'apprentissage (de nombreux éléments),
+ assurez-vous de configurer ce paramètre plus haut que se valeur par défault
+ de 1000.
+
+
Utilisateurs de BSD: les librairies suivantes doivent être
+ incluses durant l'installation de PHP:
+
+
+
php-session : L'extension pour le partage des sessions pour php
+
php-mysqlnd (ou php5-mysqli) : L'extension mysql pour php
+
php-zlib : L'extension zlib partagée pour php
+
php-pcre: L'extension pcre partagée pour php
+
php-xml
+
php-json
+
php-iconv ou php5-mbstring (au choix)
+
php-gd L'extension de manipulation d'images pour PHP
+
php-intl L'extension pour la gestion de l'internationalisation pour PHP
+
+
+
Nous recommandons aussi les extensions suivantes:
+
+
php-ctype
+
php-ldap
+
php-xapian
+
php-curl
+
php-xsl
+
php-soap, pour les services web en SOAP
+
+
+
Certains sections de ce manuel ne sont pas encore traduites. N'hésitez pas à consulter
+ le forum de Chamilo si la lecture
+ en anglais vous est impossible.
+
+
+
3. Mettre à jour depuis
+ une version antérieure de Chamilo LMS (1.*) ou de Dok€os (<2.0)
+ Avant de mettre à jour, nous recommandons chaudement la prise d'une copie de
+ sauvegarde de votre installation (répertoires et bases de données).
+ Si vous ne savez pas comment faire, consultez votre fournisseur d'hébergement
+ ou un administrateur système qualifié avant de continuer l'installation.
+ Chamilo LMS 1.10 (et donc 1.11) est livré avec une nouvelle structure de bases de données
+ en comparaison avec 1.8. Bien que le script de migration la prenne
+ complètement en charge, il pourrait générer une surcharge sur votre serveur
+ durant la mise à jour, et il changera la base de données de façon assez
+ profonde, préservant les données le mieux possible (nous avons testé la
+ procédure de nombreuses fois, mais rappelez-vous qu'il s'agit d'un logiciel
+ GNU/GPLv3 et que nous ne saurions être tenus pour responsables de ce qui
+ pourrait arriver à vos données sans la supervision d'un professionnel).
+ C'est pour cela que nous recommandons *vraiment* de faire un backup complet de
+ votre système avant la mise à jour.
+
+
+ Notez également que Chamilo LMS 1.10 (et donc 1.11) agrège les fichiers du dossier
+ main/lang en un fichier unique par langue. Si vous avez modifiez les fichiers de langue directement (plutôt que
+ d'utiliser la méthode recommandée des sous-langages), vous devriez faire une copie
+ des traductions modifiées avant la mise à jour. Les sous-langages nécessitent également
+ un peu de travail manuel, mais la procédure de mise à jour n'y touchera pas directement.
+
+
Important: Si vous mettez à jour, vers 1.11.16, une plateforme installée avant 2016 (soit avant la version 1.11.0),
+ il vous sera nécessaire de télécharger ce script,
+ de le déposer dans le répertoire main/inc/, de l'éditer pour retirer le
exit;
en ligne 15, puis de le charger dans votre navigateur
+ comme https://votresite.com/main/inc/fix_quiz_id_to_iid.php. Ce script réglera un problème d'incohérence des identifiants internes des exercices, questions
+ et réponses qui existait avant l'année 2016 (avant la version 1.11.0). Si votre système a été installé pour la première fois avec une version 1.11.0
+ ou supérieure, vous n'avez rien à faire.
+
NOTE: Pour les bases de données très lourdes de Chamilo,
+ certains de nos fournisseurs officiels ont dévelopé des procédures de
+ migration optimisées qui utilisent plus de mémoire mais exécutent les
+ migrations beaucoup plus rapidement. Si c'est le genre de choses qui
+ vous intéresse, nous vous recommandons chaudement de les contacter (voir
+ références ci-dessous).
+
+ NOTE: Cette version de Chamilo peut seulement être utilisée pour mettre à jour des versions antérieures de Chamilo ou de Dok€os.
+ Par exemple vous ne pouvez pas utiliser les scripts de mise à jour normaux de Chamilo 1.11 pour effectuer une mise à jour depuis Dok€os 2.0 (dont la sortie est ultérieure à celle de la création de Chamilo).
+ Si vous avez besoin de ce genre de choses, nous vous conseillons de contacter les fournisseurs officiels de l'Association Chamilo)
+
+
+
+
+
3.1 Mettre à jour depuis Chamilo 1.11.x (upgrade mineure)
+ Comme cette version est une version mineure de Chamilo par rapport à une
+ quelconque version 1.11.*, les seuls pas à suivre sont:
+
+
+ vérifier que vous n'avez pas créé une version modifiée d'une feuille de
+ style en utilisant un répertoire css existant (si c'est le cas, elle sera
+ écrasée par la mise à jour. Gardez-en une copie que vous renommerez au
+ moment de la replacer dans le répertoire main/css/)
+
dézippez les nouveaux fichiers de Chamilo 1.11 par dessus les fichiers de
+ l'ancienne version (ou dézippez les fichiers dans un répertoire et copiez-les ensuite
+ là où se trouve votre version actuelle de Chamilo)
+
éditez le fichier app/config/configuration.php : localisez le numéro de version antérieur dans le paramètre $_configuration['system_version'] (p.ex. '1.11.18') et remplacez-le
+ par le numéro de la nouvelle version (p.ex. '1.11.26')
+
videz votre dossier archive/ : faites une copie temporaire de index.html, supprimez touss les contenus *dans* ce dossier (ne supprimer pas le dossier, juste ses contenus). Vous pouvez également vider ce dossier depuis le lien "Vidange du répertoire archive" du bloc "Système" de l'interface d'administration.
+
c'est fini! Il n'y a pas d'autre étape requise.
+
+
+
+
+
3.2 Mettre à jour depuis Chamilo 1.9.x ou 1.10.x
+
+
assurez-vous qu'aucune table ne persiste d'une version antérieure de Chamilo. Ces tables peuvent en effet causer une erreur durant la mise à jour. En particulier, les tables des versions 1.8.* et antérieures pouvaient se répéter une fois par cours, résultant en un grand nombre de tables partageant le même préfixe. Seules les tables sans préfixe ou avec un préfixe "c_" sont légitimes dans les versions 1.9 et supérieures. Assurez-vous qu'aucune de ces anciennes tables ne persiste. Prenez une copie de sauvegarde de votre base de données (au cas où) puis supprimez-les (drop table ...).
+
vérifiez que vous n'avez pas laissé de feuille de style personnalisée ou d'image (le cas échant, faites-en une sauvegarde*)
décompressez les nouveaux fichiers de Chamilo 1.11 sur les fichiers de votre ancienne installation (ou décompressez les dans un nouveau dossier et copier les fichiers extraits sur les anciens fichiers).
+
vérifiez que le fichier .htaccess de la version 1.11 a bien été copié
+
vérifiez que "AllowOverride All" est présent dans votre configuration Apache, car l'interprétation du fichier .htaccess est capitale pour le fonctionnement de Chamilo
+
accéder à l'adresse de votre portail URL + main/install
+
Choisissez votre langue et cliquez sur Mettre à jour depuis la version 1.8.x / 1.9.x
+
Videz votre dossier archive/ : faites une copie temporaire de index.html, supprimez touss les contenus *dans* ce dossier (ne supprimer pas le dossier, juste ses contenus). Vous pouvez également vider ce dossier depuis le lien "Vidange du répertoire archive" du bloc "Système" de l'interface d'administration.
+
+
+
+
+ * Les styles et images se trouvent dans les répertoires main/css ou main/img.
+ Vous pouvez les récupérer depuis la copie de sauvegarde (que vous n'avez pas manqué de prendre).
+ Toute image ou style modifié qui utilise le nom de l'image/style par défaut sera
+ écrasé lors de l'étape suivante. Pour éviter la perte de customisations, assurez-vous toujours
+ de copier les styles/images sous un nouveau nom et de modifier la copie et non l'original.
+ L'original sera toujours écrasé par la nouvelle version. Dans Dok€os 1.8.5, nous avons changé
+ le nom de quelques thèmes CSS. La compatibilité descendante est assurée par le fait que la mise à
+ jour ne fait qu'ajouter de nouveaux thèmes, mais essayez toujours d'utiliser de préférence les
+ nouveaux thèmes plutot que se conserver d'anciennes versions qui ne seront plus maintenues.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ ATTENTION:
+
+ Ne supprimez pas le précédent dossier d'installation de Chamilo avant d'avoir installé le nouveau.
+ Quand la mise à jour sera terminée, les dossiers obsolètes devraient être automatiquement pris en charge.
+
+
+
3.3 Mettre à jour depuis Chamilo 1.8.x
+ Pour mettre à jour depuis une version antérieure à la 1.9.0, vous devrez commencer par la mettre à jour vers la version 1.9.10.x,
+ et seulement alors mettre à jours vers la 1.11.x.
+ Vous pouvez trouver une version téléchargeable de 1.9.10.x ici: https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/releases
+
+
3.4 Dans les deux derniers cas
+
+ Les répertoires suivants doivent être accessibles en lecture, écriture et
+ exécution pour le serveur web:
+
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/ (pour supprimer les fichiers de langues inutiles)
+
[chamilo]/courses/ (pour déplacer les cours dans le dossier app/courses)
+
[chamilo]/archive/ (pour supprimer les fichiers inutiles ou les déplacer dans app/cache/)
+
[chamilo]/home/ (pour déplacer les fichiers dans app/home)
+
[chamilo]/app
+
[chamilo]/web
+
[chamilo]/vendor
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+ On Linux, Mac OS X and BSD operating systems you can quick-fix this using the
+ chmod 0777 command, but if you are unsure, we recommend you seek advice for
+ your own OS on our forum.
+ In Windows, you may need to check the properties of the folders.
+
+
+
+
+
4. Problèmes
+
+
+
If you have problems, go to the Chamilo website and ask a question on the
+ support forum. Please read the previous messages first to see if there is
+ already an answer to your question.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
5. Section d'administration
+
+
Pour accéder à la section d'administration, ouvrez un navigateur, chargez l'adresse de votre Chamilo
+ et connectez-vous avec l'utilisateur administrateur.
+ Vous verrez alors un onglet "Administration" dans le menu principal.
+ Vous pouvez y gérer les utilisateurs, les cours, les sessions et
+ l'apparence de votre site
+
+
+
+
6. LDAP
+
+
+ This part is optional, only organisations with an LDAP server will need to read this.
+
+ An LDAP module is already provided in Chamilo, but it has to be configured to make it work.
+
+
+
Compiler
+
+
+ Linux servers: It's possible that you have to recompile php with ldap support.
+ Newer distributions also allow downloading rpms for additional packages.
+
+
+
Activer LDAP dans Chamilo
+
+
+ Note: Vérifiez la configuration LDAP dans Chamilo pour voir le détail
+
+
+
+ In [Chamilo folder]/app/config/configuration.php, around line 93, you'll find settings like the following:
+
+ // -> Uncomment the two lines below to activate LDAP AND edit main/inc/conf/auth.conf.php for configuration
+ // $extAuthSource["extldap"]["login"] = $_configuration['root_sys'].$_configuration['code_append']."auth/external_login/login.ldap.php";
+ // $extAuthSource["extldap"]["newUser"] = $_configuration['root_sys'].$_configuration['code_append']."auth/external_login/newUser.ldap.php";
+
+
+ remove the // from the last two lines to activate LDAP.
+
+
+
+
Settings
+
+
+ Ask the LDAP server admin for the settings:
+
+
+
+
ldap server name
+
+
ldap server port (usually 389)
+
+
ldap dc
+
+ Since 1.8.5, you have to change the LDAP settings inside the "Portal
+ administration" panel, under "Chamilo configuration settings", section
+ "LDAP".
+
+
+ As an example, you should find the following kind of values:
+
+ LDAP main server's address: "myldapserver.com"; // your ldap server
+
+ LDAP main server's port: 389; // your ldap server's port number
+
+ LDAP domain: "dc=xx, dc=yy, dc=zz"; //domain
+
+
+
+
+
Teacher/student status
+
+
+ By default, Chamilo will check if the "employeenumber" field has a value. If it has, then Chamilo will
+ consider this user as being a teacher.
+
+ If you want to change this behaviour, you can edit main/auth/ldap/authldap.php, function ldap_put_user_info_locally(),
+ and change the if (empty($info_array[$tutor_field])) condition to whatever suits you.
+
+ You can also remove this check by removing the condition and leaving only the $status = STUDENT; line.
+
+
+
Protected LDAP servers
+
+
+
+ Some LDAP servers do not support anonymous use of the directory services.
+ In this case, you should fill in the appropriate fields in the
+ administration panel (e.g. "manager" and "mypassword") and Chamilo will
+ try to authenticate using these, or fall back to anonymous mode before
+ giving up.
+
+
+
LDAP import into sessions
+
+
There is a new set of scripts now that allow you to insert users
+ from LDAP directly into a Chamilo session. This, however, relies on a
+ set of static choices in the LDAP contact attributes.
+
+ The fields used intensively by the Chamlio module are:
+
+
+
+
+
uid, which is matched to the username in Chamilo
+
+
userPassword, which is matched to the user password, although
+ this part will only work for non-encrypted passwords for now, but it
+ shouldn't be necessary if using the LDAP server as authentication
+
+
ou should end with the year of the person registration or any
+ criteria you will use to filter users, so that they can be retrieved on
+ that criteria
+
+
sn is used as the lastname field in Chamilo
+
+
givenName is used as the firstname field in Chamilo
+
+
mail is used as the email field in Chamilo
+
+
+
+
+
+
7. Formules mathématiques avec Wiris MathType
+
+ En installant ce plugin, vous intégrez Wiris MathType.
+ Cette activation ne sera pas complète à moins que vous n'ayez d'abord téléchargé le plugin PHP pour CKeditor WIRIS et l'ayez décompressé dans main/inc/lib/javascript/ckeditor/plugins/ckeditor_wiris.
+ Cette étape est nécessaire parce que WIRIS est un logiciel propriétaire et ses services sont de type commerciaux. Pour faire des modifications au plugin , éditez le fichier configuration.ini ou remplacez son contenu par le fichier configuration.ini.default de Chamilo.
+
+
+
+
8. Indexation full-text avec Xapian
+
+ Note: This step will require a dedicated server or a virtual dedicated server as the packages involved are not available on most shared hosting solutions.
+ On Debian or Ubuntu 10.04 and superior, you will simply need to install the php5-xapian package and restart your web server:
+
+
+ Then go to your administration page -> Configuration settings -> Search
+ and enable the search tool. Follow the recommendations on the page to get the
+ complete indexing suite installed. Once you're done, all documents you import
+ into your Chamilo portal in a recognized format will be indexed and searchable.
+ Chamilo Administrators training (which you can ask any Chamilo's Official
+ Provider for) include a full review of the full-text search feature.
+
+
+ Note: Xapian's licensing for the PHP extension is a bit different from what is necessary to enter the Debian repositories, so it has been excluded. You can, however, generate your own package by following the packaging instructions on Xapian's wiki.
+
+
+
+
9. Chamilo Rapide - Conversion de PPT
+
+ Note: This step will require a dedicated server or a virtual dedicated server as the packages involved are not available on most shared hosting solutions.
+ On Debian or Ubuntu 22.04 and superior, install LibreOffice v7 (or superior) and start it as a headless server:
+
+ Then go to your administration page -> Chamilo Rapid and set the host to "localhost" and the port to "2002". Save. Go to your course, learning path tool and see the new icon appeared. Import your PPT. This should work.
+ Note: Sometimes, this doesn't work out so easily. You can probably ask for the assistance of any system administrator around with a bit of Java and PHP experience, or you can always ask one of the Chamilo's Official Providers for assistance (ask for a guaranteed commercial contract).
+
+
+
+
10. Configurer les tâches chronologiques
+
+ Since Chamilo 1.8.8, a few tasks need to be executed regularly in order to get
+ the best out of your server resources. One of such tasks (and the only one
+ around at the time of Chamilo 1.8.8) is the sending of internal messaging
+ notifications by e-mail, i.e. when you receive an e-mail from another person or
+ from a group inside the internal messaging system of Chamilo, if all e-mails are
+ sent immediately, then you might not have the chance to receive them at your
+ pace, once a day or even once a week. For cases like this you, as a Chamilo
+ administrator, should set up a cron process on the server to check the queue of
+ e-mails and send is timely.
+
+ Setting up a cron task is easy and there are several ways to do it. We recommend
+ you have a look at the Drupal documentation
+ for setting up cron and define your own cron process as:
+
+ Make sure you have a look into run.php as maybe you want to change a few
+ settings there.
+
+
+
+
11. Changer l'ordre nom/prénom des langues
+
+ As Chamilo becomes more popular and crosses many borders now, it frequently happens that administrators want to re-order the firstname and lastname fields in tables, and also on which field it is sorted first.
+ This can easily be modified by editing the app/config/configuration.php file, finding the following section, uncommenting the PHP lines and adapting it to your language:
+
+Please note that, although Chamilo allows you to define its position, the "title" field does not exist at this time, so no need to worry about it.
+
+
12. Améliorer la performance des téléchargements de fichiers
+
+ File download can be very slow when passing through a PHP script to control permissions. One solution to this
+ is to use the X-Sendfile header, which depends on a module on the webserver. Check https://stackoverflow.com/a/3731639/1406662 for more details on implementing Sendfile.
+ Chamilo LMS 1.9.8 (and following versions) supports the X-Sendfile headers, but requires a specific line of configuration to be
+ added to configuration.php:
+
+If you have issues with files taking a long time to download, make sure you reconfigure your webserver and add this line. You should see a notable difference in download time.
+
+
+
13. Vidéo-conférence
+
+ Chamilo supporte la connexion à deux serveurs de vidéo-conférence : BigBlueButton (versions 0.81 et 0.9) et OpenMeetings.
+ Tandis que BigBlueButton paraît plus simple d'installation, plus clairement documenté et plus
+ abouti esthétiquement, certains utilisateurs ont attesté que OpenMeetings consomme moins
+ de bande passante, est moins restrictif en termes d'environnement et offre plus d'outils
+ et de connecteurs.
+ La décision vous revient, mais dans chaque cas vous aurez à installer un serveur de vidéo-conférence
+ en plus du processus d'installation normal de Chamilo.
+ Consultez le guide d'installation de BigBlueButton
+ Une fois celui-ci installé, entrez la commande "bbb-conf --secret" pour obtenir les paramètres à indiquer dans le plugin
+ "Vidéo-conférence" de Chamilo (page Paramètres de configuration).
+ Une icône "Vidéo-conférence" devrait alors apparaître dans chaque cours.
+
+
+
+
14. Réécriture
+
+ Chamilo LMS 1.10 est la première version nécessitant que le serveur web autorise les redirections d'url (et donc 1.11 également).
+ Pour Apache, il s'agit d'active le module rewrite et d'autoriser l'utilisation des fichiers .htaccess ou d'ajouter une section spécifique dans le Virtual Host.
+ Pour Nginx, il s'agit de définir les règles de redirections dans le Virtual Host.
+ Pour être certain que c'est à la portée de tous, nous recommandons le fichier de configuration ci-dessous pour vous aider dans les deux cas.
+ Notez que l'utilisation d'un fichier .htaccess est la solution la plus facile mais peut altérer les performances de votre serveur,
+ car les fichiers .htaccess sont interprêtés à *chaque* requête, alors qu'une section de configuration supplémentaire dans le Virtual Host
+ est compilée uniquement lors du chargement du serveur.
+
Apache + .htaccess
+
+ Pour activer le .htaccess dans Apache, vous devez juste vérifier une chose : dans un tag <Directory> du dossier racine de Chamilo, vérifiez que les lignes suivantes sont présentes :
+
+ AllowOverride All
+ Order allow,deny
+ allow from all
+
+ou, si vous travaillez avec Apache 2.4, la syntaxe est légèrement différente et ressemble plutôt à ça :
+
Note spéciale concernant le partage de questions entre cours
+ Dans Chamilo 1.11.16, nous avons introduit la possibilité (voir configuration.php) de partager
+ des questions entre différents cours. Cette fonctionnalité, si elle fonctionne très bien pour des
+ questions de type texte, génère un nouveau problème lorsqu'une ressource média (image, vidéo, etc)
+ fait partie de la question. L'utilisateur qui voit la question dans un cours vers lequel elle a
+ été partagée mais n'a pas accès au cours original, ne pourra pas voir la ressource média parce
+ que celle-ci se trouve uniquement dans le cours original.
+ Pour éviter ce problème, vous pouvez adapter votre .htaccess (ou votre VirtualHost si c'est là
+ que vous avez placé la configuration) pour permettre aux fichiers de type média d'être lus
+ directement (sans même se connecter au portail). Cela améliorera parallèlement la vitesse
+ de chargement à ces médias, mais introduira une baisse du niveau de sécurité, puisque ces ressources
+ seront directement accessibles par quiconque a accès à la page d'accueil du portail et connaît
+ les adresses exactes de ces médias. À prendre en considération, donc.
+ Pour appliquer le patch, localisez la ligne suivante dans votre .htaccess .htaccess:
+Nginx ne supporte pas les règles .htaccess, donc vous n'avez pas d'autre option que d'appliquer les règles suivantes (notez que la configuration PHP peut changer).
+Ce sont uniquement les redirections à placer dans un bloc server{}, comme les autres valeurs peuvent changer d'une installation à l'autre.
+
+ Les utilisateurs @ullfindsmit et @rozepeda sur Github ont été bien aimables en contribuant à la configuration suivante
+ pour IIS, qu'ils ont testé au préalable. Ces règles sont basées sur les configurations ci-dessus et, bien
+ que nous n'ayons pas testé la configuration nous-même, elle est suffisamment proche de la configuration
+ d'Apache et de Nginx pour nous permettre de vous la suggérer ici:

------------------------------------------
+
+
+
+
Pre-requisiti
+
+
+
Chamilo può essere installato indifferentemente su server Windows, Linux, Mac OS X e Unix. Tuttavia raccomandiamo l’utilizzo di server Linux per sfruttarne al meglio le caratteristiche di flessibilità, controllo remoto e scalabilità.
+
+
Chamilo è principalmente un LMS (Learning Management System) che gira sulla piattaforma composta da Apache 2.2+, MySQL 5.6+ (o MariaDB) e PHP 7.4, meglio nota come piattaforma AMP.
+
+
+
Tutti questi software sono gratuiti e liberamente scaricabili.
+
+
Per eseguire Chamilo LMS sul tuo server, devi installare WAMP, LAMP o MAMP:
+
+
+
per installare WAMP (AMP su Windows), raccomandiamo XAMPP
+
per installare LAMP (AMP su Linux), utilizza il Package Manager della tua distribuzione linux preferita (Synaptic, RPMFinder, etc.). Per esempio su un server Ubuntu utilizza Shell o Synaptic seguendo la Ubuntu Guide on Apache e le sezioni che seguono di questa guida.
+
per installare MAMP (AMP su Mac OS X), fai riferimento al sito ufficiale di MAMP
+
assicurati di verificare la pagina delle dipendenze se hai bisogno di sapere con precisione quali sono i requisiti minimi.
+
+
+
Database Server MySQL o MariaDB
+
Ti servono le credenziali di accesso (login e password) per poter gestire e creare un database. Tipicamente la configurazione di default su computer locali ti consente di connetterti al database manager come utente root con password vuota. E’ strettamente consigliato di cambiare la password e di definire un utente con accesso limitato ad uno specifico database. Fate riferimento alla documentazione ufficiale di MySQL e di MariaDB per effettuare queste operazioni.
+
Si fa presente che questa procedura è stata enormemente semplificata dalla versione 1.9 di Chamilo, in quanto precedentemente si prevedeva di scegliere tra numerosi database oppure un unico database deprecato.
+
+
+
+
+
2. Installazione di Chamilo LMS
+
+
+
Fare il download di Chamilo LMS
+
Effettuare l’unzip
+
Copiare la cartella Chamilo nella tua cartella web sul server Apache. Potrebbe essere C:\xampp\htdocs\ su un server Windows oppure /var/www/html (o /var/www/chamilo) su un server Linux
+
Apri il tuo browser web (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome,etc.) e digita http://localhost/chamilo/ se stai facendo un’installazione in locale oppure https://www.dominio.com/chamilo/ se stai facendo una installazione su un server remoto. Raccomandiamo di definire uno specifico Virtual Host per questa installazione se hai le competenze tecniche per poterlo fare
+
Segui il processo di installazione web Puoi accettare tutti i valori di default. Considera la possibilità di cambiare la password di amministratore e di ricordartela!
+
+
+
Le seguenti cartelle devono essere leggibili (readable), scrivibili (writeable) ed eseguibili (executable) dal tuo server web. Questo non richiede tipicamente azioni specifiche sui server Windows, mentre richiede un “chmod” sui server Linux e Mac. Segui le istruzioni che seguono.
+
Sostituisci [chamilo] con la cartella dove hai posizionato i file di installazione di chamilo:
+
+
+
[chamilo]/app/config/
+
[chamilo]/app/upload/users/
+
[chamilo]/app/upload/sessions/
+
[chamilo]/app/upload/courses/
+
[chamilo]/app/cache/
+
[chamilo]/app/courses/
+
[chamilo]/app/home/
+
[chamilo]/app/logs/
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+
+
Opzionalmente puoi fare lo stesso alle seguenti cartelle se vuoi consentire il caricamento dei pacchetti di stile CSS (CSS styles package) e la definizione di sotto-linguaggi (sub-language definition):
+
+
+
[chamilo]/main/css/
+
[chamilo]/main/lang/
+
+
+
Dalla versione 1.8.8 di Chamilo puoi anche abilitare la funzione di indicizzazione full-text che richiede l’installazione del modulo di estensione PHP chiamato php-xapian. Se lo vuoi utilizzare devi pertanto consentire al tuo sistema di scrivere nella cartella searchdb:
+
+
[chamilo]/searchdb/
+
+
+
Se trovi una cartella /test/ nella cartella radice root del tuo pacchetto di installazione sei pregato di cancellarla. Si tratta di una cartella di sviluppo che non è stata controllata e verificata in termini di sicurezza e non dovrebbe essere mai accessibile agli utenti finali sul server di produzione.
+
+
Sui sistemi operativi Linux, Mac OS X e BSD puoi utilizzare il comando chmod 0775 per questa operazione (ad ogni modo ti raccomandiamo di coinvolgere e chiedere consiglio ad esperti amministratori di sistema per evitare problemi di sicurezza) Sui sistemi Windows devi controllare le proprietà delle cartelle (facendo click sul tasto destro quando sei posizionato su di esse).
+
+
La seguente cartella deve essere leggibile e scrivibile dal browser we soltanto durante il processo di installazione:
+
+
+
[chamilo]/main/inc/conf/ (se presente)
+
+
+
Sui sistemi operativi Linux, Mac OS X e BSD puoi usare il comando chmod 666 per questa operazione (ad ogni modo ti raccomandiamo di coinvolgere e chiedere consiglio ad esperti amministratori di sistema per evitare problemi di sicurezza) Sui sistemi Windows devi controllare le proprietà delle cartelle (facendo click sul tasto destro quando sei posizionato su di esse).
+
+
NOTE:
+
Non modificare direttamente i file home_*.html. Se devi modificarli entra nella sezione Amministrazione di Chamilo e scegli la funzione “Configura la HomePage”.
+
+
Windows: tramite i pacchetti tipo XAMPP puoi installare facilmente Chamilo. In questo caso e a meno che tu non lo userai in produzione, il login e la passoword per MySQL probabilmente rimarranno vuoti.
+
+
Configurazione e sicurezza dopo l’installazione
+
Proteggi la tua cartella di configurazione: assicurati che nessun altro tranne te possa sovrascriverla. Troverai la cartella di configurazione in [chamilo]/main/inc/conf. Fai in modo che sia solo leggibile (read-only), in Windows fai click con tasto destro sulla cartella per modificarne le proprietà. In Linux/Mac/BSD utilizza il comando chmod 0555. Il file di configurazione è creato dal tuo server web (Apache + PHP, tipicamente) pertanto devi avere l’accesso come utente root sul server web per modificare questi permessi.
+
Proteggi la tua cartella di installazione: se [chamilo]/main/install è ancora accessibile qualcuno potrebbe effettuare una nuova installazione sopra alla tua, facendoti perdere tutti i dati che avevi. Sposta la cartella install da un’altra parte rispetto alle cartelle web, in un posto non accessibile, cambiane il nome, cancellala completamente o modificane le proprietà in modo tale che nessuno possa leggerla o eseguirla.
+
Per un livello di sicurezza migliore: facendo si che tutti i file siano scrivibili da tutti ti aiuta sicuramente durante il processo di installazione e risolve molti problemi tipici per le persone che non hanno molta esperienza di amministratori. Ad ogni modo è molto più sicuro creare un utente diverso come proprietario di tutti i file e di tutte le cartelle di chamilo e consentire l’accesso in lettura a tutti i file soltanto al server web e in particolare poi l’accesso in scrittura soltanto alle cartelle sopra menzionate. In questo modo tali file devono essere leggibili e scrivibili soltanto dal proprietario dei processi di Apache e non da chiunque. E’ altresì preferibile far si che tutte le cartelle scrivibili rifiutino l’interpretazione dei file PHP (ad eccezione della cartella root della sottocartella dei corsi). Non esitate a chiedere aiuto ad esperti amministratori di sistema per fare queste operazioni che sembrano essere eccessivamente dispendiose ora, ma che vi proteggeranno da potenziali perdite di dati se il vostro sito viene attaccato.
+
Configurare la vostra installazione Chamilo: nella sezione di amministrazione di chamilo potete utilizzare la funzione specifica di impostazione della configurazione per tarare il sistema in modo più aderente alle vostre esigenze.
+
Configurare la mail di chamilo: molte installazioni di chamilo utilizzano le impostazioni mail del file php.ini. Ad ogni modo se voi utilizzate un server e-mail differente potete farlo, dovrete però modificare le impostazioni mail nel file [chamilo]/main/inc/conf/mail.conf.php.
+
Controllate le nostra nuova guida di sicurezza per ulteriori informazioni
+
+
+
Configurazione di PHP
+
+
Per ottenere il meglio da Chamilo è opportuno raffinare la tua configurazione delle impostazioni PHP. Considera le seguenti modifiche :
+
+
Edita il file php.ini (in windows dovrebbe essere localizzato in C:\xampp\php\php.ini, mentre in Ubuntu Linux : /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
+
cerca la parola "_max" ed incrementa i due valori che troverai per ottimizzare le prestazioni del server
+
ti raccomandiamo i seguenti valori:
+
+
max_execution_time = 300; rappresenta il tempo massimo di esecuzione di ogni script, misurato in secondi
+
max_input_time = 600; rappresenta il tempo massimo che ogni script può dedicare nel parsing delle richieste di dati
+
memory_limit = 256M; rappresenta il massimo ammontare di memoria che uno script può consumare (128MB)
+
post_max_size = 100M
+
upload_max_filesize = 100M
+
+
Qualche utente potrebbe riscontrare problemi se le sue impostazioni PHP non sono uguali alle seguenti:
+
+
short_open_tag = Off
+
safe_mode = Off
+
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
+
magic_quotes_runtime = Off
+
+
+
Le versioni precedenti di Chamilo richiedevano che la variabile register_globals fosse impostata come “On”. Questo non è più necessario nelle versioni attuali e future di Chamilo, per cui può essere e dovrebbe essere impostata sempre su “Off”. E’ considerata una scelta scorretta impostare register_globals su “On” in termini di sicurezza.
+
Nota: Devi impostare il tuo valore di date.timezone rispetto alla timezone del tuo server. Per esempio se il tuo server si trova nella timezone 'America/New_York', imposta il parametro date.timezone in php.ini come segue:
+
date.timezone = 'America/New_York'
+
+
+
Per utenti BSD: le seguenti librerie php devono essere incluse durante l’installazione php:
+
+
php-mysql, l’estensione mysql shared per php
+
php-pcre, l’estensione pcre shared per php
+
php-session, l’estensione session shared per php
+
php-zlib, l’estensione zlib shared per php
+
(opzionale) php-ldap, se vuoi poter utilizzare l’autenticazione LDAP
+
+
+
Potresti altresì aggiungere i seguenti moduli e packages PHP:
+
+
php-ctype
+
php-gd
+
php-iconv
+
php-json
+
php-mbstring
+
php-intl
+
php-curl
+
php-iconv
+
php-xsl
+
php-ldap
+
php-xapian
+
php-soap
+
+
+
+
+
+
3. Upgrade da versioni precedenti di Chamilo LMS (1.*) o Dok€os (<2.0)
+
+
+
Prima di fare l’aggiornamento, ti raccomandiamo fortemente di effettuare un backup completo delle precedenti cartelle e dei database di Chamilo p Dok€os. Se non sei sicuro come procedere per queste operazioni chiedi al tuo hosting provider per un consiglio.
+
La versione 1.9 di Chamilo LMS si presenta con una nuova struttura del database. Sebbene gli script di aggiornamento si occupano anche di questa migrazione specifica, tale attività genera un carico molto pesante per il tuo server durante l’aggiornamento e modificherà completamente il tuo database, preservando i tuoi dati al meglio possibile (abbiamo testato la procedura molte volte, ma ricorda che si tratta di un progetto rilasciato sotto GNU/GPLv3 e non possiamo essere ritenuti responsabili per quello che può succedere ai tuoi dati senza una supervisione professionale). Questo è il motivo per cui ti raccomandiamo *vivamente* di effettuare un backup completo del tuo sistema prima di fare l’aggiornamento.
+
Nota: Questa versione di Chamilo può essere utilizzata per aggiornare da versioni più piccole di Chamilo o Dok€os. Per esempio, non puoi utilizzare lo script di aggiornamento standard di Chamilo 1.9 per aggiornare un sistema Dok€os 2.0. Se per te è necessario effettuare questo tipo di aggiornamento per favore contatta uno dei partner ufficiali associati di Chamilo.
+
+
3.1 Aggiornare da Chamilo 1.9.x (minor upgrade)
+
Siccome si tratta solamente di modifiche minori rispetto alla versione 1.9.* di Chamilo le sole cose che devi fare sono le seguenti:
+
+
controlla di non aver lasciato stylesheet o immagini personalizzate (se così fosse assicurati di averne fatto una copia a parte*)
+
fai il download del package di installazione di Chamilo 1.9 dalla pagina di download di Chamilo
+
fai unzip dei nuovi file di Chamilo 1.9 trascrivendoli sopra i file della versione precedente (oppure fai unzip dei file in una cartella e poi copia i file da questa cartella alla cartella della versione precedente)
+
modifica il file main/inc/conf/configuration.php: alla fine del file cerca il numero di versione precedente (per esempio ‘1.9.2’) e modificalo con la presente nuova versione (per esempio ‘1.9.4’)
+
questo è quanto! Non sono necessarie altre procedure di aggiornamento
+
+
+
3.2 Aggiornare da Chamilo 1.8.x
+
+
+
controlla di non aver lasciato stylesheet o immagini personalizzate (se così fosse assicurati di averne fatto una copia a parte*)
+
fai il download del package di installazione di Chamilo 1.9 dalla pagina di download di Chamilo
+
fai unzip dei nuovi file di Chamilo 1.9 trascrivendoli sopra i file della versione precedente (oppure fai unzip dei file in una cartella e poi copia i file da questa cartella alla cartella della versione precedente)
+
collegati con il tuo browser alla pagina: [ChamiloLMS-URL]+ main/install
+
seleziona la tua lingua e fai click su “Upgrade from 1.8.x”
+
+
+
3.3 Aggiornare da Dok€os 1.8.x
+
Se stai facendo l’aggiornamento da Dok€os 1.8.x:
+
+
+
controlla di non aver lasciato stylesheet o immagini personalizzate (se così fosse assicurati di averne fatto una copia a parte*)
+
fai il download del package di installazione di Chamilo 1.9 dalla pagina di download di Chamilo
+
fai unzip dei nuovi file di Chamilo 1.9 trascrivendoli sopra i file della versione precedente (oppure fai unzip dei file in una cartella e poi copia i file da questa cartella alla cartella della versione precedente)
+
collegati con il tuo browser alla pagina: [ChamiloLMS-URL]+ main/install
+
seleziona la tua lingua e fai click su “Upgrade from 1.8.x”
+
+
+
Alcuni amministratori di Chamilo hanno riportato alcuni problemi minori nella migrazione tra versioni molto diverse tra loro (per esempio nel passaggio da DokΩos a Chamilo). Questi includono la perdita di alcuni esercizi assegnati o post dei forum. Per evitare qualsiasi spiacevole effetto nei confronti dei tuoi utenti ti raccomandiamo di definire una checklist di tutti i contenuti che sono critici per te e di mantenere attiva una copia funzionante del tuo sito durante la migrazione. In questo modo sarà più semplice gestire la transizione permettendo ai tuoi utenti di accedere ai propri contenuti dalla precedente versione del sito e permettendo a te di effettuare una facile comparazione delle versioni dei contenuti. Se incontri difficoltà considera la possibilità di chiedere aiuto ad uno sviluppatore PHP o chiedere a qualcuno dei provider ufficiali di Chamilo. Essi ti daranno il supporto migliore per assicurarti una corretta migrazione di Chamilo.
+
+
*Gli Style e le immagini sono localizzate nella cartella main/css e main/img. Puoi comunque recuperarle dal tuo backup se lo hai fatto. Qualsiasi style o image che utilizza il nome di default di style o image verrà sovrascritto nel passaggio successivo a questa fase della migrazione. Per evitare di perdere la tua personalizzazione, ricordati sempre di fare una copia degli styles e images con un nuovo nome, utilizzando e modificando questo file copia, mai l’originale. L’originale viene sempre sovrascritto nella nuova versione. In Do€os 1.8.5 abbiamo cambiato il nome di molti temi CSS. La retro compatibilità è assicurata dal fatto che un aggiornamento aggiunge solamente nuovi temi, ma dovresti provare ed utilizzare i nuovi temi piuttosto che continuare ad utilizzare i vecchi che verranno deprecati rapidamente (ovvero non più mantenuti).
+
+
+
3.4 Aggiornare da Dok€os 1.6.x
+
Se stai facendo l’aggiornamento da una vecchia versione di Dok€os (1.6.x) la prima e più importante cosa da fare è di *spostare* la tua cartella corrente in un altro posto. Il modo più veloce per farlo è di creare una sottocartella chiamata “old_version” nella tua attuale cartella Chamilo/Dok€os e spostare tutto ciò che vi è presente utilizzando il semplice comando “move” (per esempio in Linux: mkdir old_version;mv * old_version/), successivamente rendere la cartella old_version scrivibile dal webserver in modo tale che le cartelle /courses e /upload possano essere trasferite dalla old_version nella nuova installazione.
+
Il processo completo è il seguente:
+
+
+
sposta tutto il contenuto della cartella corrente Dok€os in una sottocartella chiamata “old_version” e rendila scrivibile dal webserver. Questo è importante per consentire di spostare o copiare le cartelle /courses e /upload nella nuova installazione
+
fai il download del package di installazione di Chamilo 1.9 dalla pagina di download di Chamilo
+
fai unzip dei nuovi file di Chamilo 1.9 nella cartella principale Chamilo/Dok€os. La nuova cartella “main” dovrebbe essere localizzata direttamente nella cartella root di Chamilo/Dok€os
+
collegati con il tuo browser alla pagina: [ChamiloLMS-URL]
+
seleziona la tua lingua e fai click su “Upgrade from 1.6.x” e conferma la cartella corrente della vecchia versione
+
+
+
Nota: l’aggiornamento da 1.6.x a 1.8.x implica una revisione della grafica e degli stili personalizzati. La nuova versione utilizza un set di icone e stili completamente rinnovato, per cui quelli della versione 1.6 non possono essere semplicemente riutilizzati. La buona notizia è che la versione 1.8.x consente di creare il tuo stile in un file CSS separato, che puoi pertanto riutilizzare in tutte le versioni 1.8.x
+
+
Attenzione: non cancellate la cartella di installazione precedente di Chamilo/Dok€os prima di installare la nuova versione. Soltanto quando l’aggiornamento è andato a buon fine potete rimuovere la vecchia cartella.
+
+
Nota: non modificate mai direttamente i file home_*.html. Piuttosto scegliete l’opzione “Configura la homepage” nella sezione di amministrazione di Chamilo.
+
+
3.5 In entrambi gli ultimi casi
+
Le seguenti cartelle devono essere leggibili (readable), scrivibili (writeble) ed eseguibili (executable) dal webserver:
+
+
+
[chamilo]/app/config/
+
[chamilo]/app/upload/users/
+
[chamilo]/app/upload/sessions/
+
[chamilo]/app/upload/courses/
+
[chamilo]/app/cache/
+
[chamilo]/app/courses/
+
[chamilo]/app/home/
+
[chamilo]/app/logs/
+
[chamilo]/main/default_course_document/images/
+
+
+
Sui sistemi operativi Linux, Mac OS X e BSD puoi facilmente settare queste impostazioni utilizzando il comando “chmod 0777”, ma se non ne sei sicuro, ti raccomandiamo di chiedere consiglio per il tuo sistema operativo sul nostro forum. In Windows devi controllare le proprietà di tutte le cartelle sopraindicate.
+
+
+
+
4. Risoluzione dei problemi (Troubleshooting)
+
+
+
Se hai problemi visita il sito di Chamilo e chiedi aiuto al support forum. Leggiprima attentamente i messaggi archiviati per vedere se trovi già la soluzione ai tuoi problemi.
+
+
+
+
5. Sezione amministrazione
+
+
+
Per accedere alla sezione di amministrazione di Chamilo, apri il browser e vai all’indirizzo web del tuo sistema Chamilo, fai il login come utente admin. Vedrai il link “Sezione Amministrazione della Piattaforma” nell’Header della pagina. In questa sezione potrai gestire gli utenti, i corsi, le sessioni, il look and feel del portale, il contenuto della homepage, le categorie dei corsi, etc.
+
+
+
+
6. LDAP
+
+
+
Questa parte è opzionale, soltanto le organizzazioni con un server LDAP sono interessate a questa parte del documento.
+
Un modulo LDAP è già presente in Chamilo, ma deve essere configurato per poter funzionare.
+
+
Compilazione
+
Linux Servers: è possibile che si debba ricompilare php per il supporto ldap. Le distribuzioni più recenti permettono di fare il download dei file rpms per i packages addizionali.
+
+
Attivazione del LDAP in Chamilo
+
+
Nota: Il sistema LDAP è stato modificato in 1.9. Come risultato, alcune delle seguenti informazioni potrebbero non essere corrette. Si prega di verificare le impostazioni di configurazione all'interno di Chamilo per verificare i dettagli.
+
+
In [Chamilo folder] /main/inc/conf/configuration.conf.php, intorno alla linea 93, troverete le impostazioni come le seguenti:
+
+
// -> Uncomment the two lines below to activate LDAP AND edit main/inc/conf/auth.conf.php for configuration
Eliminate il simbolo di commento // dalle ultime 2 linee per attivare LDAP
+
+
Impostazioni
+
Chiedete all’amministratore del server LDAP le seguenti informazioni di settings:
+
+
LDAP server name
+
LDAP server port (tipicamente 389)
+
LDAP dc
+
+
+
Dalla versione 1.8.5 dovete cambiare le impostazioni LDAP all’interno del pannello di controllo “Amministrazione Portale”, sotto “Impostazioni di configurazione Chamilo”, sezione “LDAP”.
+
Come esempio dovreste trovare questo tipo di valori:
+
LDAP main server's address: "myldapserver.com"; // your ldap server
+
LDAP main server's port: 389; // your ldap server's port number
+
LDAP domain: "dc=xx, dc=yy, dc=zz"; //domain
+
+
+
Stato Insegnanti/Studenti
+
Per default Chamilo verifica che il campo “numero impiegato” abbia un valore. Se si allora Chamilo considererà questo utente come un insegnante.
+
Se vuoi modificare questo comportamento, puoi modificare come meglio credi il file main/auth/ldap/authldap.php, e più precisamente la funzione ldap_put_user_info_locally() nel ciclo condizionale if (empty($info_array[$tutor_field])).
+
+
Puoi anche rimuovere questo controllo eliminando la condizione e lasciando solamente la linea di codice $status = STUDENT;
+
+
Server LDAP Protetti
+
Alcuni server LDAP non supportano l’utilizzo anonimo dei servizi di directory.
+
In questo caso dovreste compilare i campi appropriati nel pannello di amministrazione (per esempio. “manager” e “mypassword”) e Chamilo cercherà di autenticarvi usando queste credenziali, oppure tornerà nella modalità anonima prima di rinunciare all’accesso.
+
+
Import LDAP nelle Sessioni
+
C’è un nuovo insieme di scripts ora che consente di inserire gli utenti direttamente da LDAP nelle sessione di Chamilo. Questo, comunque, dipende da una serie di scelte prefissate negli attributi di contatto di LDAP.
+
I campi utilizzati intensamente dal modulo Chamilo sono:
+
+
uid, che viene confrontato con lo username di Chamilo
+
userPassword, che viene confrontato con la user password, sebbene questa parte funzionerà solo per password non criptate, per il momento, ma non dovrebbe essere necessario se si sta utilizzando il server LDAP come sistema di autenticazione
+
ou dovrebbe terminare con l’anno di registrazione della persona o con un qualsiasi criterio che potresti voler usare per filtrare gli utenti, in modo tale che essi possano essere ricercati con questo criterio
+
sn viene usato come il campo lastname in Chamilo
+
givenName viene usato come campo firstname in Chamilo
+
mail viene usato come campo email in Chamilo
+
+
+
+
+
7. Formule matematiche con LaTeX

Questa parte è opzionale, solo le organizzazioni che intendono utilizzare le formule matematiche all’interno dell’editor online dovrebbero leggere questa parte.
+
+
Puoi abilitare le equazioni matematiche scrivendo all’interno dell’editor online di Chamilo (FCKEditor) seguendo questi passi:
+
+
Configurare la vostra installazione Chamilo in modo tale daaggiungere la directory cgi-bin che contiene il link simbolico al file mimetex.cgi che fisicamente si trova in chamilo/main/inc/lib/mimetex/ (* vedi oltre, al punto 4)
+
Ricarica la configurazione di Apache in modo tale da rendere attive le nuove impostazioni
+
Modifica il file di configurazione dell’editor online chamilo/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/myconfig.php e
+
+
3.1Abilita il plugin mimetex, cercando la linea //$config[‘LoadPlugin’][]= ‘mimetex’; e rimuovendo il simbolo di commento //
+
3.2 Le impostazioni addizionali $config[‘MimetexExecutableInstalled’], $config[‘MimetexExecutableDetectionMethod’] e $config[‘MimetexExecutableDetectionTimeout’] sono configurate per la condizione più probabile di riconoscimento automatico del file mimetex.cgio mimetex.exe installato. In alcuni casi eccezionali queste opzioni devono essere ritarate, consultando i commenti che le accompagnano nel file myconfig.php
+
3.3 Una volta che il plugin è attivo troverete il relativo pulsante in quasi tutte le toolbar. Se dovete modificare qualche toolbar consultate i file di configuraizone in php all’interno della directory chamilo/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/toolbars/. Ecco un esempio:
La voce ‘mimetex’ rappresenta il pulsante, puoi aggiungerlo o rimuoverlo da qualsiasi toolbar.
+
+
+
+
4. Per installare il file eseguibile mimetex dovete apportare le seguenti modifiche:
+
+
Aggiungere la corrispondente directory cgi-bin nel vostro file di configurazione di Apache, che per Apache2 vuol dire :
+
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/cgi-bin/
+
<Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin">
+
AllowOverride None
+
Options ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
+
Order allow,deny
+
Allow from all
+
</Directory>
+
+
Per aggiungere un link simbolico in Windows basta creare un shortcut al file mimetex.exe dalla cartella cgi-bin, mentre in Linux usare il seguente comando:
Se non volete modificare il vostro file di configurazione di Apache potete, in alternativa, nel passaggio n.4 semplicemente compiare il file mimetex.exe (per Windows) o il file mimetex.cgi (per Linux) dalla cartella chamilo/main/inc/lib/mimetex direttamente nella cartella cgi-bin
+
+
+
5. Assicuratevi che il file mimetex.cgi (o mimetex.exe) abbia i permessi di esecuzione da parte del server web. Per esempio, in un sistemaUbuntu Linux dovreste scrivere il seguente comando:
+
+
sudo chmod a+x mimetex.cgi
+
+
+
6. Assicuratevi che il file mimetex.cgi (o mimetex.exe) venga caricato in formato BINARY. Questo è un altro problema tipico che viene risolto molto semplicemente ri-caricando il file nel formato ASCII. Consulta la documentazione del tuo programma FTP per capire come effettuare questa operazione. BINARY viene usato per oggetti non-text, quali file eseguibili (*.exe), zip files (*.zip), file immagine (*.jpg,*.gif) e similari. ASCII viene usato solo per documenti di testo, il che include *.txt,*.cgi,*.pl,*.css,*.html, etc.
+
+
Puoi anche provare a ricaricare il file mimetex utilizzando la funzione “Upload file” nel “File manager” tipicamente presente in CPanel/Plesk se le soluzioni precedenti non sembrano funzionare o ti sembrano difficili da effettuare.
+
+
Come risultato di questa procedura un nuovo pulsante diventa disponibile nel tuo editor online all’interno di Chamilo che ti consente di inserire formule matematiche nei tuoi documenti.
Per scrivere formule con ASCIIMath nei documenti esiste un corrispondente plugin per l’editor online che deve essere attivato. Per fare ciò vedere la sezione di amministrazione della piattaforma, aprendo la pagina “Amministrazione”>”Impostazioni di Configurazione”>”Editor”. Abilitare l’impostazione “ASCIIMathML mathematical editor”.
+
+
All’interno dei vostri documenti lo script ASCIIMathML.js presenterà le formule matematiche in queste due modalità alternative:
+
+
traducendo le notazioni delle formule ASCIIMath in codice MathML. Gli standard di MathML sono supportati attualmente dai seguenti browsers:
+
+
Mozilla Firefox, potresti però dover installare i font STIX (https://www.stixfonts.org) sulle tue macchine client per avere una resa ottimale delle formule;
per browser che non supportano MathML viene effettuata la conversione della notazione delle formule ASCIIMath in notazione TeX passando tramite un servizio esterno. Il servizio esterno produce e ritorna un’immagine che contiene la formula. Questa modalità è chiamata “image-based fallback”.
+
+
+
Per fornire un servizio di image-based fallback in un sistema di produzione dovresti installare sul tuo server il software per il rendering TeX quale:
Apri con un editor di testo il file .../chamilo/main/inc/lib/asciimath/ASCIIMathML.js. Cerca all’inizio del codice che inizializza la variabile AMTcgiloc.
+
Dovresti modificare le impostazioni come nell’esempio seguente:
Per testare come deve essere impostata la variabile AMTcgiloc ci sono alcuni esempi all’interno dello script stesso.
+
+
+
+
9. Formule matematiche con Wiris MathType
+
+
+ Installare il plugin PHP plugin for CKeditor WIRIS, decompattarlo nella cartella /main/inc/lib/javascript/ckeditor/plugins/ckeditor_wiris.
+ A seguito dell’installazione si ottiene un editor Wiris MathType.
+ Si segnala che WIRIS è un software proprietario ed i suoi servizi sono servizi
+ commerciali.
+ Per qualsiasi modifica o configurazione ulteriore del plugin modificare il file configuration.ini o sostituirlo con il file configuration.ini di default di Chamilo.
+
+
+
+
10. Indicizzazione Full-text con Xapian
+
Nota: questo passaggio richiede un server dedicato o un virtual server perchè il pacchetto tipicamente non è disponibile nella maggior parte delle soluzioni di hosting condivise presenti sul mercato.
+
Su un sistema Debian o Ubuntu 10.04 o superiori devi semplicemente istallare il pacchetto php5-xapian e riavviare il web server:
+
sudo apt-get install php5-xapian
+
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
+
+
Poi vai nella pagina di Ammistrazione-> Impostazioni di Configurazione>Ricerca e abilita il tool di ricerca. Segui le raccomandazioni indicate nella pagina per istallare correttamente la funzione di indicizzazione. Una volta terminata tale operazione tutti i documenti che importerai in Chamilo saranno indicizzati e resi ricercabili se ne viene riconosciuto il formato.
+
I corsi di Amministratore Chamilo (che puoi richiedere ai nostri Chamilo's Official Provider) comprendono un completo approfondimento della funzione di ricerca full-text.
+
+
+
11. Sistema Chamilo Rapid per conversione file PPT
+
Nota: questo passaggio richiede un server dedicato oppure un server virtuale perchè il pacchetto tipicamente non è supportato dalla maggior parte delle soluzioni di hosting condiviso presenti sul mercato.
+
Su un sistema Debian o Ubuntu 22.04 o superiori basta semplicemente installare LibreOffice v7 ed avviarlo come server headless:
Poi vai nella pagina di Amministrazione> Chamilo Rapid ed imposta l’host a “localhost”, la porta a “2002”. Salva. Ora vai nel tuo corso, nel tool Percorsi di Apprendimento e dovresti vedere una nuova icona aggiunta. Ora puoi importare un file PPT e dovrebbe funzionare.
+
Nota: qualche volta non funziona così facilmente. Potresti dover necessitare di assistenza da parte di qualche amministratore di sistema con conoscenze di base di Java e PHP o comunque puoi chiedere assistenza ai nostri Provider Ufficiali (con un contratto commerciale di assistenza per questo tipo di servizio)
+
+
+
12. Impostare compiti con cadenza regolare
+
Dalla versione 1.8.8 di Chamilo alcuni compiti necessitano di essere eseguiti regolarmente per ottimizzare l’utilizzo delle risorse del server. Uno tra questi (e l’unico al tempo di Chamilo 1.8.8) è quello di inviare messaggi interni di notifica via e-mail, per esempio quando ricevi una mail da un’altra persona all’interno di un gruppo all’interno del sistema di messaggistica di Chamilo. Se tutte le email venissero inviate immediatamente allora non avresti nessuna possibilità di riceverle con scadenze regolarei, una volta al giorno, oppure alla settimana. Per questo tipo di casistica, in qualità di Amministratore Chamilo, dovresti impostare un processo cron sul server per verificare la coda di email da inviare ed inviarli con le cadenze opportune.
+
Impostando un task cron è facile e ci sono diversi modi per farlo. Noi raccomandiamo di guardare il documento Drupal documentation for setting up cron e stabilire i tuoi processi cron in questo modo:
Assicurati di controllare il file run.php perchè potresti dover modificare qualche impostazione.
+
+
+
13. Cambiare l’ordine firstname/lastname di lingua
+
Con la crescente popolarità di Chamilo accade frequentemente che gli amministratori vogliano riordinare i campi nelle tabelle relative ai firstname/lastname e vogliano altresi invertire il campo di ordinamento primario tra firstname/lastname.
+
Questo può essere modificato facilmente modificando il file main/inc/lib/internationalization_database/name_order_conventions.php, cercare al suo interno la vostra lingua e modificare i campi. E’ molto autoesplicativo e dovrebbe apparire come segue:
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+
Preamble
+
+
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works.
+
+
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
+the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
+GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
+any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+
To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
+certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
+you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
+
+
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
+or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
+know their rights.
+
+
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+
+
For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
+authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+authors of previous versions.
+
+
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
+can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
+protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
+pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
+use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
+have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
+products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
+stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
+of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
+
+
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
+avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
+make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
+patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+
+
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+
0. Definitions.
+
+
“This License” refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+
“Copyright” also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+
“The Program” refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License. Each licensee is addressed as “you”. “Licensees” and
+
+“recipients” may be individuals or organizations.
+
+
To “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy. The resulting work is called a “modified version” of the
+earlier work or a work “based on” the earlier work.
+
+
A “covered work” means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+
To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+
To “convey” a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+
An interactive user interface displays “Appropriate Legal Notices”
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+
1. Source Code.
+
+
The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it. “Object code” means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+
A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+
The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
+“Major Component”, in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+
The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+
2. Basic Permissions.
+
+
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+
3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+
4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+
5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+
+
a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+ it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+
b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+ released under this License and any conditions added under section
+ 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+ “keep intact all notices”.
+
+
c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+ License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
+ License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+ additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+ regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
+ permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+ invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+
d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+ Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+ interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+ work need not make them do so.
+
+
+
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+“aggregate” if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+
6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+
+
a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+ (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+ Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+ customarily used for software interchange.
+
+
b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+ (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+ written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+ long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+ model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+ copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+ product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+ medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+ more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+ conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+ Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+
c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+ written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
+ alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+ only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+ with subsection 6b.
+
+
d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+ place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+ Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+ further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
+ Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
+ copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+ may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+ that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+ clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+ Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
+ Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+ available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+
e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+ you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+ Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+ charge under subsection 6d.
+
+
+
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+
A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
+product received by a particular user, “normally used” refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+
“Installation Information” for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+
7. Additional Terms.
+
+
“Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+
+
a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+ terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+
b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+ author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+ Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+
c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+ requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+ reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+
d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+ authors of the material; or
+
+
e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+ trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+
f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+ material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+ it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+ any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+ those licensors and authors.
+
+
+
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further
+restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+
8. Termination.
+
+
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+
9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+
10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+
An “entity transaction” is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+
11. Patents.
+
+
A “contributor” is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's “contributor version”.
+
+
A contributor's “essential patent claims” are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
+purposes of this definition, “control” includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+
In the following three paragraphs, a “patent license” is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement). To “grant” such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients. “Knowingly relying” means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+
+
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+
A patent license is “discriminatory” if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+
12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+
13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+combination as such.
+
+
14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
+Public License “or any later version” applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+
Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+
15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+
16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+
17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+ Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
+
+ This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+ it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+ the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+ (at your option) any later version.
+
+ This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+ MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
+ GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+ You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+ along with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+
+
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+
If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+
<program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
+
+ This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+ This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+ under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+
+
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
+might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an “about box”.
+
+
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
+<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+
The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
+into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
+may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
+the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
+<https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.

+ GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+ Version 3, 29 June 2007
+
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+ Preamble
+
+ The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works.
+
+ The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
+the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
+GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
+any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+ To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
+certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
+you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
+
+ For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
+or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
+know their rights.
+
+ Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+
+ For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
+authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+authors of previous versions.
+
+ Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
+can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
+protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
+pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
+use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
+have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
+products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
+stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
+of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
+
+ Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
+avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
+make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
+patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+ 0. Definitions.
+
+ "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+ "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+ "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+ To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+ A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+ To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+ To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+ An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+ 1. Source Code.
+
+ The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+ A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+ The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+ The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+ The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+ The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+ 2. Basic Permissions.
+
+ All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+ You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+ Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+ 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+ No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+ When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+ 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+ You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+ You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+ 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+ You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+ a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+ it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+ b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+ released under this License and any conditions added under section
+ 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+ "keep intact all notices".
+
+ c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+ License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
+ License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+ additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+ regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
+ permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+ invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+ d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+ Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+ interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+ work need not make them do so.
+
+ A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+ 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+ You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+ a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+ (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+ Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+ customarily used for software interchange.
+
+ b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+ (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+ written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+ long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+ model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+ copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+ product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+ medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+ more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+ conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+ Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+ c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+ written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
+ alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+ only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+ with subsection 6b.
+
+ d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+ place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+ Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+ further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
+ Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
+ copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+ may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+ that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+ clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+ Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
+ Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+ available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+ e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+ you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+ Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+ charge under subsection 6d.
+
+ A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+ A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+ "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+ If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+ The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+ Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+ 7. Additional Terms.
+
+ "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+ When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+ a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+ terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+ b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+ author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+ Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+ c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+ requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+ reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+ d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+ authors of the material; or
+
+ e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+ trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+ f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+ material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+ it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+ any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+ those licensors and authors.
+
+ All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+ If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+ Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+ 8. Termination.
+
+ You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+ However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+ Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+ Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+ 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+ You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+ 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+ Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+ An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+ You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+ 11. Patents.
+
+ A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+ A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+ Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+ In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+ If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+ If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+ A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+ Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+ 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+ If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+ 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+combination as such.
+
+ 14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+ Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+ If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+ Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+ 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+ THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+ 16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+ IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+ 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+ If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+ If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+ To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+
+ Copyright (C)
+
+ This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+ it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+ the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+ (at your option) any later version.
+
+ This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+ MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
+ GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+ You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+ along with this program. If not, see .
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+ If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+ Copyright (C)
+ This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+ This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+ under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
+might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
+
+ You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
+.
+
+ The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
+into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
+may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
+the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
+.

+
+ Chamilo Optimization Guide
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
In seldom cases, you will need to start looking into efficiency issues
+ with Chamilo. This guide is a work in progress intended to help
+ administrators optimize their Chamilo installation.
+ From version 5.5, PHP includes the Zend OpCache Optimizer, which can
+ bring considerable efficiency improvements and is very reliable.
+
+ Using OpCache should come by default, but if you want to make sure it's
+ running, just check that your opcache.ini config file says
+
opcache.enable = 1
+ Some websites will recommend the addition of additional settings, and this
+ is really up to you. Check
+ the official OpCache config page for more information.
+
+ To check if OpCache is effectively running, you can check the
+ Chamilo systems status page
+ on the administration page, or you can check it in phpinfo, if you have any script with it.
+
+ Zend OpCache is an "opcode" cache, meaning it will compile static code to make their processing faster.
+ However, this will not allow you to "store" shared variables in memory between all users. To do that, we suggest
+ you complement Zend OpCache (opcode) with a user-land cache like APCu.
+
+
APCu
+ You can also check whether APCu is working or not from the systems status page. Check
+ the official APCu config page
+ for configuration options.
+
+ In previous versions, this optimization guide contained information about how to use xCache, APC or Memcache to
+ boost the number of online users. However, starting from version 1.11, code has been added to Chamilo to use
+ APCu by default from the banner.lib.php library, so as long as APCu is installed and running, you'll benefit from
+ this optimization naturally.
+
+
Other items
+
+
It is also worth noting that the Université de Genève, Switzerland, observed
+ that the calculation of the total size used by course documents is one of
+ the heaviest queries in Chamilo, so you might want to cache the results of
+ this one as well, using the same technique.
+
+
Finally, if your portal is highly public *and* you are showing the popular
+ courses on the homepage, you might want to also reduce the amount of
+ queries this generates, using the same technique as above, but for the
+ main/inc/lib/auth.lib.php library, looking for the
+ "Tracking::get_course_connections_count()" call:
+
+ Finally, the Free Campus of Chamilo has a very specific case of slow query:
+ the courses catalog! Because there might be more than 32,000 courses in
+ there, getting the number of "Connections last month" can be a disastrous
+ query in terms of performances. This is why you should try to cache the
+ results as well.
+ Obviously, as we are speaking about showing the number of visits this month,
+ it doesn't really matter if the number doesn't refresh for an hour or so...
+ Locate the main/inc/lib/course_category.lib.php file, open it and go to the
+ browseCoursesInCategory() function.
+ Locate the $count_connections_last_month = Tracking::get_course_connections_count(...)
+ call, and wrap in into something like this (you'll have to update this to use APCu):
+
+ $xc = method_exists('Memcached', 'add');
+ if ($xc) {
+ // Make sure the server is available
+ $xm = new Memcached;
+ $xm->addServer('localhost', 11211);
+ // The following concatenates the name of the database + the id of the
+ // access url to make it a unique variable prefix for the variables to
+ // be stored
+ $xs = $_configuration['main_database'].'_'.$_configuration['access_url'].'_';
+ }
+ $result = Database::query($sql);
+ $courses = array();
+ while ($row = Database::fetch_array($result)) {
+ $row['registration_code'] = !empty($row['registration_code']);
+ $count_users = CourseManager::get_users_count_in_course($row['code']);
+ if ($xc) {
+ if ($xm->get($xs.'cccount_'.$row['code'])) {
+ $number = $xm->get($xs.'cccount_'.$row['code']);
+ } else {
+ $count_connections_last_month = Tracking::get_course_connections_count($row['code'], 0, api_get_utc_datetime(time() - (30 * 86400)));
+ $xm->set($xs.'cccount_'.$row['code'], $count_connections_last_month, 3600);
+ }
+ } else {
+ $count_connections_last_month = Tracking::get_course_connections_count($row['code'], 0, api_get_utc_datetime(time() - (30 * 86400)));
+ }
+ ...
+
+
+
+
2. Slow queries
+Enable slow_queries in /etc/mysqld/my.cnf, restart MySQL then follow using sudo tail -f /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log
+
+In Chamilo 1.9 in particular, due to the merge of all databases into one, you might experience performance issues.
+To solve this performance issue, you can execute the following query manually in your database:
+
+ALTER TABLE user_rel_tag ADD INDEX idx_user_rel_tag_user (user_id);
+
+
+In Chamilo 1.10.0 (the first version of the serie), many indexes were forgotten, so you can boost your database by adding the following indexes:
+
+alter table extra_field_values add index idx_extra_field_values (field_id, item_id);
+alter table usergroup_rel_user add index idx_usergroup_ru (usergroup_id);
+alter table usergroup_rel_user add index idx_usergroup_ru_u (user_id);
+alter table c_student_publication add index idxstudpub_cid (c_id);
+alter table c_student_publication add index idxstudpub_uid (user_id);
+alter table c_quiz_question add index idx_cqq_cid (c_id);
+alter table c_quiz_rel_question ADD INDEX idx_cqrq_qid (question_id);
+alter table c_quiz_rel_question ADD INDEX idx_cqrq_cid (c_id);
+alter table c_quiz_answer add index idx_qa_cidqid (c_id, question_id);
+
+In Chamilo 1.10.6, two additional queries were confirmed to still have effect a considerable effect:
+
+ALTER TABLE c_quiz_question_rel_category ADD INDEX idx_qqrc_qid (question_id);
+ALTER TABLE c_lp_item_view ADD INDEX idx_clpiv_c_i_v (c_id, id, view_count);
+
+
+ Note that, because these situations only occur when a portal is under real-world high-load stress, we only get to
+ find out about these possible bottlenecks after we release stable versions of Chamilo. This is why we list those
+ queries here. However, as soon as we confirm them with a few real life scenarios, we add them into the core of
+ Chamilo, so you can benefit from them immediately by installing a new version.
+
In Chamilo 1.11.x you can boost the DB tables related surveys invitations by adding the following indexes:
+
+
+ ALTER TABLE c_quiz_answer add index idx_qa_cidqid (c_id, question_id);
+ ALTER TABLE c_lp_item_view ADD INDEX idx_clpiv_c_i_v (c_id, id, view_count);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_survey_q_qid ON c_survey_question (question_id);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_survey_code ON c_survey (code);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_survey_inv_code ON c_survey_invitation (survey_code);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_survey_qo_qid ON c_survey_question_option (question_id);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_c_survey_answerucsq ON c_survey_answer (user, c_id, survey_id, question_id);
+
+ # Also by adding a index on access_url_rel_session to improve the course/session list
+ CREATE INDEX idx_accessurs_sid ON access_url_rel_session (session_id);
+
+ # If you have lots of gradebook stuff, add this
+ ALTER TABLE gradebook_result ADD INDEX idx_gb_uid_eid (user_id, evaluation_id);
+ ALTER TABLE gradebook_category ADD INDEX idx_gb_cat_parent (parent_id);
+ ALTER TABLE gradebook_evaluation ADD INDEX idx_ge_cat (category_id);
+ ALTER TABLE gradebook_link ADD INDEX idx_gl_cat (category_id);
+
+ # If you have to delete a lot of users, you'll realize deleting users is a slow operation.
+ # Using the following queries might help:
+ ALTER TABLE extra_field_values ADD INDEX idx_efv_item (item_id);
+ ALTER TABLE c_document ADD INDEX idx_cdoc_path (path);
+ ALTER TABLE c_document ADD INDEX idx_cdoc_size (size);
+ ALTER TABLE c_document ADD INDEX idx_cdoc_id (id);
+ ALTER TABLE c_document add index idx_cdoc_type (filetype);
+ ALTER TABLE c_document add index idx_cdoc_sid (session_id);
+
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_attempt ADD INDEX idx_track_e_attempt_tms (tms);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_login CHANGE login_date login_date DATETIME NOT NULL;
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_login ADD INDEX idx_track_e_login_date (login_date);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_login ADD INDEX idx_track_e_login_user_id (login_user_id);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_login ADD INDEX idx_track_e_login_user_date (login_user_id, login_date);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_course_access ADD INDEX idx_teca_countconn (c_id, session_id, login_course_date);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_course_access ADD INDEX idx_c_id_session_user (c_id, session_id, user_id);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_course_access ADD INDEX idx_session_user_login (session_id, user_id, login_course_date);
+
+ ALTER TABLE extra_field_values ADD INDEX idx_efv_fv1 (field_id, value(1));
+ ALTER TABLE message ADD INDEX idx_message_senddate (send_date);
+
+ CREATE INDEX idx_message_receiver_status_send_date ON message (user_receiver_id, msg_status, send_date);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_message_status ON message (msg_status);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_message_user_receiver_status ON message (user_receiver_id, msg_status);
+ CREATE INDEX idx_msg_urid ON message (user_receiver_id);
+
+ ALTER TABLE c_item_property CHANGE insert_date insert_date DATETIME NOT NULL, CHANGE lastedit_date lastedit_date DATETIME NOT NULL;
+ # If you have to delete a lot of users, you'll realize deleting users is a slow operation.
+ # Using the following queries might help:
+ ALTER TABLE c_item_property ADD INDEX idx_cip_lasteditu (lastedit_user_id);
+ ALTER TABLE c_item_property ADD INDEX idx_item_property_visibility (visibility);
+ ALTER TABLE c_item_property ADD INDEX idx_cip_ctv (c_id, tool(25), visibility);
+ ALTER TABLE c_dropbox_person ADD INDEX idx_file(file_id);
+
+ ALTER TABLE c_chat_connected ADD INDEX idx_user_course_session(user_id, c_id, session_id);
+ ALTER TABLE c_chat_connected ADD INDEX idx_user_course_group(user_id, c_id, to_group_id);
+
+ ALTER TABLE c_chat_connected ADD INDEX idx_course_session(c_id, session_id);
+ ALTER TABLE c_chat_connected ADD INDEX idx_course_group(c_id, to_group_id);
+ -- For big online exams, this index reduces the load considerably
+ ALTER TABLE c_quiz_question ADD INDEX idx_cqq_cidid (c_id, id);
+ -- If you have many messages with attachments
+ ALTER TABLE message_attachment ADD index idx_msgat_msgid (message_id);
+ -- If you query audit logs from track_e_default on huge tables
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_default ADD INDEX idx_ted_uid (default_user_id);
+ ALTER TABLE track_e_default ADD INDEX idx_ted_et (default_event_type);
+
On large implementations, the users sessions might be stored in numbers too large (hundreds of thousands) to be
+ efficiently managed by the filesystem is stored in one single folder. In order to avoid that, you can either store
+ your sessions in another key-value storage (memcache, redis, etc.) or you can instruct PHP to store your session
+ files in a directory with a certain level of subdirectories (so sessions are spread across multiple directories
+ instead of inside just one.
+
+
This is done by adding the following setting to your php.ini or your Apache's Virtual Host
Please note that, by defining a different directory than your system's default, you will need to reconfigure
+ your system's session cleaning procedure, which is usually defined under /etc/cron.d/php, so that it cleans
+ this specific directory as well.
+
+
5. Users upload directories
+The default in Chamilo is now to spread user accounts in 10 different directories inside app/upload/users/ to avoid
+ overloading that specific directory. Nothing to be done here. Please move on.
+
+
6. Zlib compressed output
+Although this will not make your server faster, compressing the pages you are sending to the users will definitely
+ make them feel like your website's responses are a lot faster, and thus increase their well-being when using Chamilo.
+Zlib output compression has to be set at two levels: PHP configuration for PHP pages and Apache for images and CSS.
+To update the PHP configuration (either in php.ini or in your VirtualHost), use the
+ zlib.output_compression. If you set this inside your
+ Apache's VirtualHost, you should use the following syntax.
+
+php_value zlib.output_compression 1
+
+
+Configuring your Apache server to use output compression is a bit trickier. You have to use the mod_deflate module to do it. Your configuration should look like something like this (please read the corresponding documentation before implementing in production).
+Easy mode:
+
or, for every content type (dangerous) you can put the following inside a location or directory block:
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
+
+Advanced mode:
+
+
+# Insert filter
+SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
+
+# Netscape 4.x has some problems...
+BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
+
+# Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
+BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
+
+# MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
+# BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
+
+# NOTE: Due to a bug in mod_setenvif up to Apache 2.0.48
+# the above regex won't work. You can use the following
+# workaround to get the desired effect:
+BrowserMatch \bMSI[E] !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
+
+# Don't compress images
+SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \
+\.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary
+
+# Make sure proxies don't deliver the wrong content
+Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary

Memory considerations for high numbers of users
+Some administration scripts *have to* handle lists of all users, and this might have a considerable impact on portals with very high numbers of users. For example, the main/admin/add_users_to_session.php script that handles the registration of users into a specific session, if used with the (non-default) full list of users, will devour about 3KB per user, which, for 100,000 users, translates into the need for around 300MB of RAM just to show this page, and to around 3GB for 1,000,000 users.
+This mode is not loaded by default, but could still be selected, leading to a "Fatal error: Allowed memory size ... exhausted" message.
+The only non-scripted solution here is to allow for the corresponding amount of RAM for your PHP configuration (memory_limit = 300M) or your specific VirtualHost if you use mod-php5 (php_value memory_limit 300M).
+
+
+
Avoiding dynamic values
+Many things in Chamilo are written focusing on the ease of use, even for the
+ administrator. Sometimes, these settings are weighing a little bit more on
+ the system. This is the case, between others, of the mail.conf.php file
+ (being loaded unconditionally) and its CONSTANT "IS_WINDOWS_OS", which is
+ defined by a function call (api_is_windows_os()) at the beginning of
+ main_api.lib.php.
+
+The definition of this constant (which is executed at *every* page load) can
+ easily be avoided, and the only place where it is used unconditionally
+ (mail.conf.php) can be modified to set the line as you expect it
+ (depending on whether you use sendmail/exim or smtp).
+
+$platform_email['SMTP_MAILER'] = 'smtp';
+
+or
+
+$platform_email['SMTP_MAILER'] = 'mail';
+
+In fact, the complete loading of mail.conf.php can also be avoided if
+ loaded conditionally (with require_once) when sending an
+ e-mail (which is the only case where it is useful).
+
+As an additional node, on very active portals with a lot of courses
+ for each user, the icons that appear next to the courses illustrating
+ changes in the corresponding course might be heavyweighted. You can
+ alter slightly the behaviour by not querying for notifications you
+ don't care about, like dropbox, notebook or chat. Change this in
+ main/inc/lib/display.lib.php, in function show_notification().
+
+
+
Speeding file downloads with mod_xsendfile
+
It might have come to your attention that file downloads through Chamilo
+ might get slow, under default conditions, in particular using Apache 2.
+
There are several ways to fix this, one of which is removing the .htaccess
+ inside the courses/ directory. This, however, will remove all permissions
+ checks on the files contained in this directory, so... most of the time,
+ not ideal unless your portal is *really* open to the world.
+
Another technique, revealed to us by
+ VirtualBlackFox
+ on this Stackoverflow post,
+ is to use the X-SendFile module for Apache 2.2+ (other web servers might
+ offer other solutions, or avoid the problem initially).
+
Installing the X-SendFile module will depend on your operating system,
+ but if you use Ubuntu, you'll have to check you are including the "universe"
+ repository inside your packages sources (check /etc/apt/sources.list), then:
+
+Once you're done with installing, you'll have to configure Chamilo to use it.
+First, edit your VirtualHost or your Apache configuration in general (in Ubuntu,
+ check the /etc/apache2/ or /etc/apache2/sites-available/ folder). This is done
+ by adding the following line inside your configuration, and reloading Apache
+ (example provided on the basis of a virtual host located in
+ /etc/apache2/sites-available/my.chamilo.net.conf) :
+
+sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/my.chamilo.net.conf
+# add the following line:
+ X-SendFile on
+# exit the file
+sudo service apache2 reload
+
+Finally, you'll have to go to your Chamilo configuration file, and add the
+ following line at the very bottom of the file main/inc/conf/configuration.php:
+
+Done! Now your downloads should go substantially faster. This is still a
+ feature in observation. We're not sure the benefits are sufficient, so
+ don't hesitate to let us know in
+ the related issue in Chamilo's tracking system
+
+
+
IGBinary for courses backups and better
+ sessions management
+
+IGBinary is a small PECL
+ library that replaces the PHP serializer. It uses less space (so less
+ memory for serialized objects) and is particularly efficient with memory-based
+ storages (like Memcached). Use it for course backups
+ (see issue 4443) or
+ to boost sessions management.
+
+
+
Removing files download permissions check
+
+This measure is not cumulative with mod_xsendfile explained above. It is not *recommended*
+ either, as it removes an important security layer.
+
+In Chamilo, for security and tracking purposes, all downloaded files pass through PHP
+ scripts that check whether the user has access to the file given his/her current
+ permissions. This process requires important database accesses and processing, which
+ might terminally affect your server's performance. In particular, this can
+ have a huge effect if having hundreds of simultaneous users accessing
+ learning paths pages composed of local resources.
+The logic behind this verification is that, whatever resources that needs to be
+ downloaded/viewed that come from the /courses/ directory, the /courses/.htaccess
+ file with get in the middle and redirect these accesses to a PHP script
+ (usually called download.php but there are more than one depending on the
+ type of resource).
+If you want to speed up files accesses, and you don't really care about whom can
+ see your files, then an option is to simply change this redirection to
+ download.php and let Apache treat the file directly.
+Furthermore, using a PHP script for the download (unless you have special rules)
+ will usually prevent static content caching, which will multiply downloads
+ and use large amounts of additional bandwidth.
+Typically, the .htaccess will look like this (with additional comments):
+
+This is easy, doesn't require a server reload, and you should see the results pretty
+ quickly. As mentioned above, if security of your content is an issue, though,
+ you should avoid using this technique.
+
+
+You can also mitigate the risk by disabling permissions check only
+for some static resource like css,js and fonts files.
+
+For that is required to load header module
+in apache (check with a2enmod in your favorite root terminal)
+add these lines after RewriteBase /courses/:
+
+<IfModule mod_headers.c>
+ # all file name ended with these extensions names will bypass the permission check (and also served by the browser cache at the next request)
+ <FilesMatch "\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|pdf|ico|icon|css|swf|avi|mp3|ogg|wav|ttf|otf|eot|woff)$">
+ Header unset Cache-Control
+ Header set Cache-Control "public, max-age=29030400"
+ RequestHeader unset Cookie
+ Header unset ETag
+ </FilesMatch>
+</IfModule>
+# also adjust files here
+RewriteRule (\.(html|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|pdf|ico|icon|css|swf|avi|mp3|ogg|wav|ttf|otf|eot|woff))$ - [L]
+
+
+
+Since version 1.11.10, the .htaccess has been modified to do this by default with media files, and a change post-1.11.10 also does it for documents that are not in a SCORM folder. These changes will improve speed considerably but will lower the security on media files, as a direct link could be used to open the file with no validation. As such, you can comment those lines with media files to ensure increased security, at the cost of performance. These are the two lines (followed by their more wide-ranging rule) that have to be present in .htaccess for maximum efficiency.
+
+If your database server is separate from your web server, you have to play with
+ bandwidth, firewalls, and network restrictions in general.
+In particular, when dealing with large-scale portals, the time a SQL query
+ will take to return to the web server will take longer and, eventually,
+ in the most critical cases, will take too long, and your web servers
+ will be completely overloaded (load average very high because the system
+ is waiting for I/O operations, but processors usage not being very high
+ is a clear sign of this).
+To solve this kind of issues, MySQL and MariaDB offer a data compression
+ mechanism, which will reduce the amount of data passed between PHP and
+ the database server. Ultimately, this reduction will lower bandwidth
+ usage and reduce the impact of numerous and heavy data requests (and
+ save you).
+In 1.10.0, we have added the possibility to enable this compression very
+ easily, from the configuration.php file, defining a secret parameter called
+ db_client_flags. The database connection library changed in 1.11.0 and this
+ possibility was removed until 1.11.12. where you can now use client flags
+ by defining an array (it is very important to define it as an array) in
+ configuration.php, like this:
+
+The values used in the array (in this case CLIENT_COMPRESS) are the hexadecimal
+ values documented in the MySQL
+ documentation. There is no corresponding documentation for MariaDB, so we assume
+ most of these flags will work in MariaDB too. The PDO driver for MySQL
+ doesn't seem to understand the constants related to those flags, so you
+ have to use the hexadecimal value directly.
+Changing CLIENT_COMPRESS will only have a positive impact if the CPU
+ utilisation is low and the bandwidth utilisation is high in your specific
+ use case, so make sure you analyze this properly.
+
+
+
Increasing PHP limits
+
+ As your use of Chamilo increases, and you get above the thousands of users,
+ you're likely to hit a few milestones set by PHP to avoid hacks.
+ One of them is PHP5.4's Suhosin extension limit post_max_vars, which was
+ extended into PHP5.5 and above through the max_input_vars limit. This limit
+ is usually set to 1000. What does it mean?
+ It means that, when you manipulate any list greater than 1000 items, PHP will
+ automatically remove anything sent above the first 1000 registers (usually
+ a little bit less because it needs to add the other input fields of the page).
+ For example, if subscribing 5 new users to a course where you already have
+ 1000 users subscribed, you will remain at 1000, although the 1000 will not
+ necessarily be the 1000 that were there in the first place (they are sent
+ in order of the elements inside the form, so probably alphabetically,
+ depending on the page).
+ Increasing this limit to a higher level (say 10,000 instead of 1000) should
+ be relatively safe, considering your application is normally not open to
+ the public (and so also open to the evil kind of users). So, in your
+ php.ini, this limit should now look like this:
+
+ max_input_vars = 10000
+
+ A number of other limits might also become an issue in the long run, like
+ memory_limit, post_max_size, etc. We have given reasonnable recommendations
+ in the installation process for these values, but remember that if you
+ have a larger portal than anyone else, you probably need to give it more
+ care than anyone else.

Chamilo is an e-learning and course management web application, a free software under the GNU/GPLv3+ license.
+ It's translated into more 30 languages, SCORM 1.2 compatible, light and flexible.
+
+
Chamilo supports many different kinds of learning and collaboration activities.
+ Teachers/trainers can create, manage and publish their courses through the web.
+ Students/trainees can follow courses, read content or participate actively
+ through groups, forums, chat.
+ Administrators provide support to trainers and trainee
+
+
+
Technically, Chamilo is a web application written in PHP that stores data in a MySQL database.
+ Users access it using a web browser.
+ The first stable version of Chamilo, 1.8.6.2 Salto, was based on the Dokeos(TM) 1.8.6.1 code and
+ can be used to upgrade institutions away from Dokeos or Claroline 1.*.
+
+
+
+
If you would like to know more or help develop this software, please visit
+ our homepage at https://chamilo.org
+
SCORM
+ Chamilo imports and manages SCORM 1.2 contents.
+ For more information on SCORM normalisation, see https://www.adlnet.org
+ Chamilo does not implement the full set of SCORM 1.2 specifications, as many are not mandatory.
+ Check our website for more details.
+
IMS/LTI
+ Since version 1.11.10, Chamilo also fully supports IMS/LTI 1, 1.1, 1.1.1, Outcomes and Deep Linking.
+ Since version 1.11.12, Chamilo also fully supports IMS/LTI 1.3.
+
+
Chamilo is an AMP software. This means it should work on any platform running Apache
+ + MySQL + PHP. It is then supposed to work on the following Operating Systems :
+
+
+
Linux
+
Windows (98, Me, NT4, 2000, XP, VISTA)
+
Unix
+
Mac OS X
+
+
+
+
It has been tested on
+
+
Fedora, Mandrake, Red Hat Enterprise Server, CentOS, Ubuntu, Debian
+
Windows XP, Windows 2000
+
Mac OS X 10.3
+
+We officially recommend Debian and Ubuntu operating systems for their security, packaging system, community and
+ availability to the public.
+
+
E-mail functions remain silent on systems where there is no mail sending software
+ (Sendmail, Postfix, Exim4, Hamster...), which is the case by default on a Windows machine.
+
+
Interoperability
+
+
Chamilo imports SCORM 1.2 compliant learning contents. It imports "On the shelves"
+ contents from many companies : NETg, Skillsoft, Explio, Microsoft, Macromedia, etc.
+
+
Admin interface imports users through CSV and XML. You can create a CSV file
+ from a list of users in MS-Excel. OpenOffice can export to both CSV and XML
+ formats.
+ Many database management systems, like Oracle, SAP, Access, SQL-Server, LDAP, etc
+ export to CSV and/or XML.
+
+
Chamilo includes an LDAP module that allows admin to disable database
+ authentication and replace it by connecting to an LDAP directory.
+
+
Client side, Chamilo runs on any browser : Firefox, Internet Explorer
+ (11+), Chrome, Safari, Opera, ...
+ For better user experience, we recommend Firefox (you can download it
+ freely from https://getfirefox.com).
+
+
Chamilo.org
+
+
Chamilo is also an association, backed up by a network of private partners
+ to assist companies and institutions in their e-learning projects. This
+ network also promotes professional versions of Chamilo solutions, which
+ consist of complete packages of services (see https://chamilo.org/providers
+ for more details)
+
+
Certification
+
+
The Chamilo association offers official certification programs through its
+ official providers. These certifications are available for affordable fees.
+ Check https://shop.beeznest.com for more info and to take the certification
+ test directly.
We recommend you don't take security issues too lightly. Chamilo is security-audited at least once a year,
+ but you're never too sure. This list is a work in progress. Feel free to recommend additional measures by
+ sending us an e-mail at info@chamilo.org.
+It is considered a safer behaviour not to disclose server information from your Chamilo page. In order to avoid
+ both web server and PHP information disclosure, you might want to take the following actions:
+
+
+
Locate the ServerTokens setting inside your Apache configuration and set it to "Prod"
+
Locate the ServerSignature setting inside your Apache configuration and set it to "Off"
+
Locate the expose_php setting inside your PHP configuration and set it to "Off"
Additionally to lacking the implementation of features that really improve the quality of your browsing the
+ Internet, older browsers tend to have many unresolved security flaws. Using an old browser, you put in danger the
+ security of your computer and the data it contains, but you can also put others in danger by letting crackers take
+ control of it and attacking others.
+
To avoid being a risk to yourself and others, you should download and install a recent browser. We recommend
+ the latest stable version of Firefox.
+
+
4. Moving your configuration file out of the web directory
+
It is considered unsafe to leave the configuration file inside the app/config/ directory, as it will be directly
+ accessible for all users, which could lead crackers to download it, uninterpreted, and read through your
+ configuration, which could lead to illicit
+access to your database if that one isn't well protected and many other stuff we'd prefer to avoid. To secure it,
+ move the configuration file out of your web directory. If your Chamilo installation is in /var/www/, move your
+ configuration to /etc/chamilo/configuration.php, for example. Then create a new app/config/configuration.php
+ file, open it, and write the following:
+This will prevent direct access to your settings and make it seem totally the same to Chamilo.
+
+
+
5. Restricting files permissions
+
Making all the Chamilo files world-writable will help you install quickly, and it solves many
+ issues for people without much admin experience. However, it's more
+ secure to make a distinct user owner of all the chamilo files and folders,
+ and only give read access to the web server to all files, and write access
+ only to the directories previously mentioned.
+
This way, these files need
+ only be readable and writable by the Apache process owner, not by the
+ entire world. It would also be advisable to make all writable directory
+ refuse the interpretation of PHP files (except for the root of the courses
+ directories).
+
Don't hesitate to hire an experienced administrator to do that,
+ it might be a bit more expensive now, but you'll be happy not to have to lose
+ all of your data to a hacker who attacked your site.
+
Only the following directories have required (or optional) write
+ permissions from the web server:
+
+
app/cache/
+
app/courses/
+
app/home/
+
app/logs/
+
app/upload/
+
main/default_course_document/images/
+
main/lang/ (optional, only for sublanguages)
+
web/css/ (optional, only for switching CSS through the web)
+
+
+ Because these directories have "write by the web server" permissions,
+ it is important to prevent the execution of PHP scripts from those
+ directories (because a specially-crafted attack could end up allowing
+ the upload of a PHP script to one of these). To do that, taking into
+ account we authorize overrides through .htaccess, we need to set
+ something that a .htaccess file cannot revert, and we need to set it
+ for each of those directories. This can be done as follows inside
+ your VirtualHost definition in Apache, where "/var/www/URL/" is the path of your VirtualHost web root:
+
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/app/cache>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/app/courses>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/app/home>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/app/logs>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/app/upload>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/app/Resources/public/css>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/main/default_course_document/images>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/main/lang>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+ <Directory /var/www/URL/web/css>
+ php_admin_value engine Off
+ </Directory>
+
+
+ For Nginx, this would look like the following rules. However, do
+ remember that Nginx interprets rules in order of appearance, so these
+ rules would have to be at the top of your location rules to take the
+ highest priority:
+
A relatively recent development in web security, HTTP headers can be modified either
+ from the web server or from the application (like Chamilo) to increase the security
+ of your visitors.
+
These implies several aspects, from simple to complex, to deal with, from stuff like
+ indicating which websites you say media or libraries can be loaded from, to adding
+ extra info about your SSL certificate to make sure a hacked certification authority
+ will not immediately make your certificate useless.
+
In Chamilo 1.11.6, we have added several parameters, together with recommendations,
+ to main/install/configuration.dist.php, that you are free to use or ignore,
+ depending on the level of security you want to achieve.
>
+
To check your portal for possible improvements in terms of headers security,
+ we highly recommend the securityheaders.io
+ website. If you want to read more about CSP and all related headers
+ security techniques, check Scott Helme's blog.
+
+
As per reported vulnerabilities #175 and #176 on
+ our Security Issues page,
+ we highly recommend setting $_configuration['security_content_policy'], in particular for
+ elements like 'script-src', 'style-src' and 'form-action' to 'self' or to a limited number of trusted URLs.
+ In particular, the social wall and the course chat spaces could be abused by some users to trick others
+ into filling forms that will send personal data to external sites. Letting users edit HTML is useful
+ but dangerous if you cannot trust people using these features. These features cannot be used by anonymous
+ users, but portals allowing for open registration could be particularly vulnerable.
+
If .htaccess is enabled or the .htaccess rules are translated into the
+ web server vhost configuration (see installation guide for that), Chamilo
+ will do some natural files access protection.
+
+ This protection is executed through redirections of some URLs to make the
+ request go through some kind of permissions validation script. For
+ documents, this means going through the main/document/download.php script,
+ but there are some more specific rules (see .htaccess for details).
+
+ While this does a great job to avoid access by unprivileged users, this
+ also creates an efficiency issue, whereby some files, in version 1.11, can
+ take up to 5 times the load time when it goes through the permissions
+ validation.
+
+ Because of that, we have taken some decisions to reduce the impact in a
+ reasonable way. For example, static files in SCORM content
+ (in courses/[code]/scorm/) like CSS, JS, PNG, JPG and GIF are *not* scanned
+ this way (there is an exception for that). We believe that these resources
+ do not contain confidential information. If you *DO* have confidential
+ information in images, CSS or JavaScript files, you will need to update
+ these rules to suit your needs.
+
+
Access to "personal" files
+ In Chamilo 1.*, it is possible to upload files to one's "personal" folder
+ through the social network page, or through any upload popup that allows
+ you to choose the file destination (and you select your personal folder).
+
+ Due to the development background in Chamilo, these files are then directly
+ accessible by anonymous users, which can lead to personal data leaks. This
+ has been left in this mode by default because many teacher users had used
+ this option to share common images between different courses and blocking
+ the feature would have meant public courses would not have shown the given
+ images.
+
+ To avoid this issue and make files accessible *only* to authenticated users,
+ please set the following option to 'true' in configuration.php:
+
+
+ SVG files and HTML files containing inline SVG are vulnerable to XSS attacks. This is a general fact, not
+ immediately related to Chamilo, but that can affect it.
+ As a general rule of thumb, you should not let your portal open to unauthenticated people, and you should not
+ allow unknown or unreliable people to upload content to your portal.
+ But in case you do, or accesses of reliable people get stolen and abused, you might want to take precautions to
+ avoid as much as possible giving the tools to crackers, to damage your portal's reputation.
+ The following are a series of measures you can take to reduce the risk to the maximum when talking about the
+ combination of SVG and XSS.
+
+
Disable the SVG editor, in the platform settings
+
In the security section of the platform settings, filter the SVG extension (either through putting it in the blacklist or removing it from the whitelist)
+
Make sure $_configuration['course_introduction_html_strict_filtering'] = true; is commented or is set to true in your configuration.php file
+
Do not make courses "public" if they include student-contributed content
+
Define some Content Security Policies ('security_content_policy') in your configuration.php file
+
Define some XSS Protection clause ('security_xss_protection') in your configuration.php file
