How to fix a crash of the teacher station control panel
- Problem: control panel on the teacher station unresponsive (both hardware and software buttons). No AV and on/off switching.
- Cause: Octo switch in the AV cabinet crashed (it needs replacing).
- Resolution: Open the door to the AV cabinet and powercycle the switch (= unplug and replug the lower thin black cable in the 1st or top rightmost thin black cable in the 2nd photo). Or use the call button (still functional) and wait for help.
Moodle 1 into Moodle 2 course restore fails with error “unsupported subplugin” or “unknown resource successor” or “parameter (contextid) was missing
-
I could not get the course to convert, until I deleted everything but the fora , and not even my rss blocks converted with urls – if this helps somebody, I describe the steps I took here:
-
upconclicking on more info: error/moodle/unsupported subplugin From MoodleDocs
-
The cause of this is likely due to an unsupported subplugin not being available in the version of Moodle you are using. If this error appeared during the restore of a Moodle course check the plugins within the backed up course against what is available in the Moodle you are restoring the course to. The Moodle you are restoring the course to is likely to be missing a plugin that is present in the backed up course. There is a tracker for this error to be a bit more graceful during course restore for Moodle version 2.x.x http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-29288 <http://docs.moodle.org/23/en/error/moodle/unsupported_subplugin>
- Do not include "Video Assignments" means not only video files, but also Kaltura streamed video.
- If I remove pretty much anything which was useful and retry backup/restore with these settings
- I removed the video, however, there is a new error

Workaround for Sanako study 1200 tutor v7 window limitations
- Problem: Window maximizes only to size of,and location defaults to, primary screen. This is now on windows7.
- Workaround: make the screen whose size you desire the primary (and live with the side effects).
- Downside:
- Screencast recordings of instruction won’t work: Community Clips can only record the primary screen, which is not the screen displayed to students during regular teaching. Windows Media Encoder does not work with our non-standard dual screen configuration on Windows7.
Sanako student lite recorder needs reconfiguration
- Because of a misconfiguration, students now always have to make these two changes (on teacher screen) from the default configuration (on student screen) before their Sanako will become operational:
- If you made the default, but wrong choice “Lite recorder”, you will get stuck with this:
- To get out of it, click button:”close”and start over.
How to fix cygwin extension "unable to start correctly 0xc000007b" on Windows 7 64-bit
In this instance, the cryptic message denoted a bitness problem: dcfldd (the extension in question, like so: for /f %i in ( ‘dir /b .\input’ ) do dcfldd.exe if=input\%i of=output\%i.jpg bs=1 skip=6) would not start in a Cygwin 64-bit environment. Installed cygwin 32-bit (and changed my path), and dcfldd worked fine.

How to fix exception: Sanako Graph Data not installed
- Problem: When trying to administer an oral exam, using model imitation, source: file, I could not, but rather I got this error
- Root: The same feature had worked in the morning – however, then the Sanakorecorder interfered with the Sanako tutor. Turned out that the Sanako tutor had been installed over a Sanako Student recorder which caused the tutor pc to connect to itself (distracting, also potentially a liability since it eats up licenses if not managed). In between morning and afternoon exam, the student recorder was uninstalled, but without the required functionality testing afterwards. So this exam had to become the test.
- Workaround: Reinstall the student recorder. We used the “test the Sanako installer” program on my home page to not delay the exam too much.
- Solution: do not install the Sanako tutor over a student installation in the first place.
- Either remove the Student recorder after imaging the teacher station with the student image,
- or better, image the PC without the added baseline task “Student recorder”.
