[LON-CAPA-admin] Map not loaded; sequence does not exist

[Stuart Raeburn]

Paul,

To gather more information I'd recommend finding the reference to the  
missing sequence file in the sequence files which do exist in the new  
course.

So on the file system, do:

cd /home/httpd/lonUsers/ndsu/4/e/2/4e24219a3cf874c08ndsul1/userfiles

grep 'default_1087484056' *.sequence


If this finds a .sequence file, the next thing to do would be to  
compare the contents of that file with the corresponding file in the  
course which was cloned.

diff  
/home/httpd/lonUsers/ndsu/4/e/2/4e24219a3cf874c08ndsul1/userfiles/$filename.sequence  
/home/httpd/lonUsers/ndsu/$1/$2/$3/$oldcourse/userfiles/$filename.sequence

where $filename is the name of the sequence file containing the  
reference to default_1087484056.sequence and $oldcourse is the  
courseID of the old course (with $1,$2, and $3 the first, second and  
third characters of the courseID).

I'm not sure what is meant by squigglies".

Enrollment of students/account creation from an uploaded file is a  
slow process ( ~ 2s/student) - see:  
http://bugs.loncapa.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5596 (now fixed).
The fix for that bug will be in the next LON-CAPA release.

At present the following is displayed, on screen while enrollment is  
in progress:
...........

with more dots added for each batch of 10 students enrolled.

The plan is to replace that with the standard LON-CAPA progress  
indicator (i.e., N/M students processed, X seconds for last student).

In the meantime, the advice is to patient when using CSV uploads of  
class rosters.
