Re: Gibbon Integration with Moodle

Hi Emma

I am a bit stuck in external db enrollment. I believe that I may be doing some configuration in external db enrollment view.  I have successfully done external db authentication. And my enrollment testing also showing correct testing. But when external user logged in moodle, I assume that his external enrollment along-with course info should appear on my moodle. But it is now appearing. My external db is MSSQL Servver. I am pasting some screen shots which better describe my configuration and if your please mention where I am doing wrong, I would be greatly thankful to you. 

Here are screen shots of configuration and external table views.



Basic external db connection

Local Field Mapping (I doubt I am missconfiguring this one)


Local Field Mapping


Remote enrollment sync


Creation of Courses


MSS SQLServer external enrollment and course tables:


Enrollment TABLE has username and CourseID fields. I did not create role field though as i assumed that is optional and default role would be Student.


Course Table is as below:

Correction : External courses are NOT showing in Moodle

Are the courses being created?  

I am presuming that you have external database enrollment enabled.  Did you fill in the Course ID field in the course settings?  This is what the enrollment is looking for - not the Short Name...

Hi Emma,

Shibbolethis listed below LDAP as authtentication option. However, this has no effect because Shibbolteh users log in via a separate link. They cannot log in via the usual login box. In addition setting email as username, would not work because the Shibboleth system uses this separate login that does not allow this.

Rgrds,
Paul.

Hi,

This is a great idea. I tried inserting your code below that line you mentioned and although the confirmation email was automatically sent to the student, the admin account did not return to the course page (instead it lead to a blank screen).

What line should come immediately after that code?


Thanks!

Re: Moodle as SAML Identity Provider

I am also looking into this option to allow a single sign on for our Moodle users to complete a course on an external LMS (non moodle) that has suggested we use SAML for the SSO process (to save 10,00 users having to create a new account on the external system).

I have found documentation to allow SAML as a Moodle authentication option but not how to configure Moodle to be an identity provider - is this possible?

The other LMS  is not an LTI  publisher so are there any other options to look at?

Regards

External Athentication

by Mark Iannone.  


Hi ,

I created a mysqldatabase on my server to connect with a Moodle also on the server using external Authorization. The fields I made were Varchar, except for the password, which I made MD5. When I use the test function I get the message below:


(mysqli): SELECT * FROM New_Users WHERE User_Name <> 'random_unlikely_username' 

External table contains following columns:
User_Name, Password, First_Name, Surname, Email, Driver_School, Course_Name, ID


I am using a MariaDB and there is no option for that so I used mysqli.

I made some users and I could not login with their credentials after adding them to the external database,

If anyone can provide me with some advice I would really appreciate it.

Thank-you in advance,


Mark Iannone

Yup I did select that but no errors - I found the problem, the correct variable is "oidc" not "openid" if anyone else is stuck on the same issue! 

If anyone has the full list of variables for the "auth" field, that would be useful to have somewhere on the web. smile

Login to Moodle using OpenLDAP User

by dawood algharib.  

Hi,

I am new to configuration of LDAP and Moodle. I installed the OpenLDAP 2.4.40 on Linux Centos 6 and configured it successfully using this link. Then I got to another Link which provides the configuration of LDAP Server Authentication on Moodle 3.2.

After implementing all the configuration, the login to the Moodle using a LDAP user is not working knowing that all the configurations are applied as documented in the above links.

I installed the Apache Directory Studio and configure the connection to the LDAP Server successfully. Hereafter is a snapshot of the LDAP Server Tree:



Then I got to the LDAP server installed in Linux thru using putty tool and run the "ldapsearch -x -LLL -b dc=sorce,dc=online"and it works fine.

My Moodle Authentication configuration parameters of LDAP Server are as follows:

  • Distinguished Name - bind user is set to the Root User: cn=Manager,dc=sorce,dc=online
  • User Type: posixAccount (rfc2307)
  • Context is set to the "users" entry:  ou=Users,dc=sorce,dc=online 
  • All the passwords are double checked 

However, after implementing all the above configurations, I`m still not able to connect to Moodle using LDAP Users, and I got the following error:

LDAP-module cannot connect to any servers: Server: '80.79.155.44', Connection: 'Resource id #82', Bind result: ''

My Moodle installation is hosted in a cloud account,  the LDAP Server is installed in a local office server (Linux Centos 6), and the Apache Directory Studio is installed in my PC (Windows 7)

Any ideas regarding how I can make Moodle authenticate LDAP Users and login..please help? 

Thanks in advance!

So the issue is with the bind user.  It looks like the connection is ok.

1.  I don't see the Manager user listed in your domain - does this user exist in the place you have them listed?

2.  If user exists but is just not listed for whatever reason, does the user have the appropriate rights on the users folder?  Must be able to read (and write if you want Moodle to update information).

3.  Check password on bind user again...

Hi All,

I've been fighting with this for some time now too and didn't find anything on the Internet.  I managed to get it working and hopefully by replying here I will save someone else some time.

What you need to do is use the full identity URL from the iDP in the mapping.  e.g.

If you are using email address as the nameid from the iDP then enter "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress" in the idp to Moodle mapping and select Email Address from the drop down.

You could also use "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/name" if passing in UPN from your iDP.  

As an FYI my iDP is Azure AD.  If you are using Azure AD connect you can even configure it to pass on premises samaccountname if you have used those as your IDs in Moodle.  Let me know if you need more information on this.

Hi Dave, 


First, thanks for the answer. We configured it and it works also fine in the DMZ. The only problem is, that the SSO works only with IE and with Chrome and Firefox it shows something like "Server errror... has to be fixed by the server administrator". 

Is there something special for fixing Chrome and SSO? We are having REHL7 as server. 


Thanks.

Self registration with admin confirmation

$

by fred hunter.  

Hi all,

I've installed the latest edition of the 'Self Registration with admin confirmation' plugin onto my moodle 3.1 instance and ma having some issues.

Firstly, when, as a test user, when I submit a create a new account from the signin page, I'm immediately getting an 'internal error 500' message. The server I'm running it on has PHP 5.5 and IIS7. I suspect that whatever is happening in the signup.php code is trying to call something which just isn't there e.g. a default confirmation screen stating that the request has gone to an administrator for approval or something. I haven't seen this feature working in situ so I don't know how its supposed to  look and I don't know where to being troubleshooting. There are no error logs in Moodle even with debugging verbosity set to maximum and there are no useful logs on the host server. The user account is being created and an admin request email being sent.

Secondly, I've manage to customise the wording of the confirmation email which goes to the admin, with the exception of the placeholders. I added an additional field onto the singup form called 'Establishment' and made it a required field etc ,but I can't call it through a place holder on the language string. I've inspected the form at the front end in developer mode in the browser and it looks like Id_Profile_Field_Establishment. I've tried every permutation I can reasonably think of to get the placeholder to resolve the user data but have been unsuccessful. The moodlelib.php file is referred to on a number of threads for passing additional strings for inclusion in the email confirmations, but said file makes no reference to the auth_emailadminconfirmation string which the self-reg with admin confirmation plugin uses.

I'm really eager to iron this out as I'm planning to go live with the site early next year. Any help you can give me would be appreciated.



LDAP Authentication with Azure Active Directory

Hello,

I'm wondering if it is possible to authenticate against Azure Active directory. Ideally I would like it to us some data mapping with this. 

Thanks in advance.

Azure is like an ADFS on-premise server in the cloud I believe?
If you set your moodle site as an application on the Azure side, I hear it's possible.

What I'm not sure of, is which authentication mode/plugin you need to pull it off - can't remember if it's SAML, or you just install the Office 365 integration and tell it the Azure IdP details. Data mapping with that, probably possible but never tried it to vouch either way.

Have you tried directing the ldap auth plugin at it?  I don't really know what difference it makes where the AD is as long as you can access it.

I won't pretend I've tried it, but I would be surprised if either LDAP port was exposed onto the public internet without IP restrictions at the firewall end. Even with IP address restrictions on who can dial into it, that's a major security concern to my mind.

Get a user from a section with moodle

by Valmir de Santana Santos Jr.  

Dear,
I'm new to the moodle environment.
I use a third-party ERP that allows me to put the link to call the moodle environment, however I would like to get the user through the section, so he would not have to enter the password again, since the portal will manage the access.
Is it possible, can anyone help me?
Sorry for the typos.
