Hey Visvanath,

thank you very much for your support. We have finally managed to upgrade our moodle website to the lates version (and Ubunto 20.04.1) on a test environment.
Still some little adjustments to apply (ssl, ldap and clamav) but all the data are there along with users!

Have a nice day,
Davide.

Those adjustments come because it is a _new_ server. If you clone the whole prod. server, similar to a snap-shot in virtualization, and then dist-upgrade you don't have to make those adjustments. Only thing, I don't know how well Ubuntu supports a dist-upgrade 18.04 to 20.04. Under Debian dist-upgrades are very reliable. Only thing you can't skip a release. That is why I asked how exactly you do the upgrade.

Re: 3.9.2+ fresh install - installation session start failure, "headers already sent" PHP error

Last update by me on this thread.
I deleted all program files and data files and re-installed them.
Re-applied the patch for the InnovaDB compression bug.
The DB I dropped all tables but left the empty DB in place, as that part was working in the original install attempt.

Second time was the charm - web UI install completed without further incident, moodle installed and working now.

No idea what was causing the original error. Some file must have gotten corrupted somewhere somehow in the git/download etc., to be spitting out those stray '==' chars that triggered the above errors.

From same page you were following:

https://docs.moodle.org/39/en/Step-by-step_Installation_Guide_for_Ubuntu

"Run 'sudo mysql_secure_installation' to set the root password for mysql - please, please my dear friends, WRITE IT DOWN and spare yourself some grief, you will need it in step 6."

The command you ran had to be run as the superuser (below I've used 'root' of the DB server ... you might have used some other name for superuser.

mysql -u root -p

Then issue the grant command.

'SoS', Ken

I've recently added a Let's Encrypt SSL to the site and the email, which was going though the gmail SMTP has now stopped working with regular errors in the logs:

Failed to send an email from the user with id '2' to the user with id '914' due to the following error: "SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting".

I'm at a loss to understand this.  Settings below but the userID and PW removed.

Nothing I can find anywhere makes any sense.

Any help gratefully received

Cheers

Dave

To get this type of transcript would require custom SQL. All the data exists in the database, it is just that you need it in this special format. Also, some data that you want in the transcript would have to be captured somewhere. For example, Term-I and Term-II. Where do you enter this into Moodle. In other words, does something in a course let you know that it is Term1 or Term2? Likewise for "subject code,""Roll no," and "Batch no."

Appreciate that Moodle's built-in reports are built to support the most common needs. Special needs, like yours, requires custom SQL.

1. Enrol each teacher in Moodle with the Teacher role in the site context. Then they'll all be able to create their own courses.
2. What do you mean by "classrooms"? Perhaps creating a Group in each course for each "classroom" does what you want?
3. Perhaps you can use Cohorts for this?
4. Only enrol each teacher in his/her own course and disable self-enrolment in those courses. That prevents other teachers from enroling in the courses. To "hide" each course from other teachers (why would you ever do that???) use enrolment keys in each course. Each course has a unique enrolment key which teachers don't share with other teachers.

Isn't it better to let the teachers collaborate and work together instead of dividing them up like you're implying? That way they could produce better courses and help each other...

Re: Delete multiple users by CSV with only their emails

You cannot bypass usernames. Usernames are the unique user identifiers in Moodle.

Use a sql query like this to get the usernames for those email addresses:

SELECT username, email, firstname, lastname
FROM mdl_user
WHERE email IN (
'joe@gmail.com',
'jane@doe.com',
'jack.jill@thehill.com',
etc
)

Replace the emails with your 290 emails before you run that sql script. It will give you a list of all the usernames associated with the profiles you want to delete.

This is only useful if, for some reason, you don't want to use Randy's solution.

thank you luis for response.
great i will do try your steps.
yes i mean by classroom a group of students . i used the word classroom because the most activity will be done in my platform would be learning video conference like a classroom but virtual.
i'm integrating video conference services for this functionality like bigbluebutton or wiziq.

about hiding teacher related data from the others, it's just not to confuse every teacher with all this data of courses and students that he might not make use of.
imagine i have about 20 or 30 teachers and every teacher has more than 50 or 80 student and about 5 courses, it will be a mess for a teacher if he have to see all of this in his dashboard.
if you have any other recommendations or advice it's more than appreciated, and thank you for help.
