[LON-CAPA-users] Issue with Configuration of 'Request Creation of Courses'

[Stuart Raeburn]

Joyce,

Unfortunately a bug was introduced into LON-CAPA 2.11 in the case  
where the "Request creation of courses" configuration had not  
previously been configured for the domain (in 2.10 or earlier).

You can eliminate this error in LON-CAPA 2.11.1 by replacing the  
shipped domainprefs.pm fie (rev. 1.160.6.64) with rev. 1.160.6.65 as  
follows (as root), all on one line ...

wget -O /home/httpd/lib/perl/Apache/domainprefs.pm  
'http://source.loncapa.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/loncom/interface/domainprefs.pm?rev=1.160.6.65;content-type=text/plain'


then:

/sbin/service httpd reload
