Hi,
Both restoring methods I mentioned before are:
- drag and drop
- choose file and upload ( picking up file method) - but not through URL
both failed.
There is no problem with restoring "no-moodle files" such as PDFs, all kinds of audios and videos, .txt .doc and so on,
just drag and drop or choose file and upload - works as supposed to.
The problem is to restore all "moodle documents" such as book, file, forum, lessonand all the others,
created by using " Add an activity or resource" tool within moodle.
I know all the stages needed while backing up and restoring the course,
because i successfully backed up and restored courses within moodle,
changing names categories and so on.
Generally I know how to use moodle.
I studied many tutorials and practiced everything on my own.
Of course I still have to practice and do not consider myself a great expert.
Everything works excellent, except restoring courses from backup.mbz from out of moodle. I also tried to restore in my moodle the course which I got as free mbz from the net. The result was the same, so it seems to be not the case of my backing up.
My Moodle stops restoring external backup.mbz on stage one (never mind if this is only "book" file for example or sth more complex - and that's the end.
So something is definitely wrong.
As I told you before I have also tried moodle 3.1.1 lately. There are no errors shown (with no debugging), but restoring stops at stage 1 (exactly the same as in moodle 2.7). It is quite impossible for all the versions higher than 2.6 to have my restoring problem. So the problem seems to be in xampp for windows package and its default settings while working with Windows 7.
I am going to try to install moodle 3.1.1 on Ubuntu, (under virtual Windows 7) just to see if the problem also exists there.
It will take some time. Later I will also try Windows XP.
Which platform do you have your moodle installed on?
I will let you know when/if get some ideas.
Regards, Andrew
