Devizes School Online Booking System

[reggiep]

I'm trying to work out how a block booking could be made on a room for all the lessons for one day, if that makes sense.

For example if the library was closed for the day it could be done once instead of for every lesson.

Anyone any ideas on this?

 

Thanks:D

Would it be possible to have a flat panel monitor showing the calendar of the bookings mounted on the wall outside of our ITC? We currently print of each week, but a monitor would be so cool. I'm trying to figure out how it would update the day automatically and what I would have to plug the monitor in to. Thanks in advance!

Yup fine here too. I have set it up so many times on our new server. Though if you want to use the AD feature, i have found out that you it needs to be sat on a DC

I have downloaded the Devizes system but everytime I run the index file I get a page of HTML text,, any reason why ?

We started using this tool last year as a temporary replacement for an Excel spreadsheet (there was supposed to be a room booking feature coming in Eclipse.Net that's yet to materialise).

 

Moved the data structure from Access to SQL 2003 and have found it to be generally good but it's yet another tool to look after (and I'm the poor munchkin who has to look at the timetables in SIMS and then manually create endless block bookings on 2 week timetables).

 

Had thought about using the resource booking feature in Fronter but soon back pedalled on that idea and so we're running the Devizes tool this year too.

Struggling to get the devizes system working I think I've set up everything as it says in the manual, but when I try to access it the title bar of IE briefly changes to "booking system" before changing to a 404 "the page cannot be found".

 

At this time, the path that's displayed "http://griphook/start/default.asp" does exist and is correct... as far as I can see.

 

All the services that I think should be running, seem to be.

 

Anyone got any ideas what I could have got wrong and how to start trouble shooting?

I'm running 3.5.1 which may be older than your implementation. Mine has default1.asp rather than default.asp.

 

My only suggestion is to trace back to the initial file index.htm checking each redirect and include in turn.

Sorry to bring back an older topic but.......

 

Any one got a copy of this floating around as I cant seem to access the website to get it. Or can someone post how to set it up for auto authentication agains AD? I know you can do it as I did it at my old school but can't remeber how to do it now.

 

Cheers,
