[Year 12 IT Apps] Moodle Problems

[Laurie Savage]

Thanks Andrew, I tried your trick and my error log is looking healthy now.

Here is the active part FYI

$PVGCip = $_SERVER ['REMOTE_ADDRESS'];
$PVGCparts = explode('.',$PVGCip);

If ($PVGCparts[0] = 10){
	$CFG->wwwroot = 'http://<local alias>';
}
else{
	$CFG->wwwroot = 'http://moodle.pvgc.vic.edu.au/
}

I can either guess it DNS at the school or the moodle config file.

Had the same issue when I ran a moodle box at home with no DNS server.
Wrote a little if statement in PHP to help it work.

Something along the lines of

If IP = 10.0.**
Then moodle root directory is http://10.0.0.5/ Else
	www.mymoodlebox.com

If need be I may still have the file but I just searched the moodle docs.

Any networking gurus out there?

My Moodle server is returning a lot of "Page not found" errors when accessed
from within our LAN but not when accessed from student homes.
Should I be suspecting faulty switches?

This is a typical message
[client 210.11.184.9] request failed: error reading the headers,
referer:
http://moodle.pvgc.vic.edu.au/<rest of path deleted by me>

Where I think 210.11.184.9 is the border IP.
