Wes, I'd be very interested in doing this also. I did succeeded in being able to read the moodle calendar in outlook last year but could only change details from moodle - no update in outlook was accepted (but I think that was probably on Moodle v1.9). Hopefully v2 can do this better. Appreciate if there is anyone out there who know how to do this. Ger

Thank you very much for all you help. That solved the problem. Did backup and updated. The file upload is now available. Thanks You.

Yes, you were spot on php had been updated to 5.3. I'll do a backup and update. Many thanks for all your help - it's appreciated.

Excuse me didn't see this question earlier. At the moment Moodle is version 1.9.2+

Thanks guys - was trying to remember how to turn on the messages. Using Firefox I'm getting. Fatal error: Call to undefined method MoodleQuickForm_hidden::MoodleQuickForm_hidden() in /home/ctiw111/public_html/moodle/lib/pear/HTML/QuickForm/element.php on line 363 Checked IE also getting exact same message "Fatal error: Call to undefined method MoodleQuickForm_hidden::MoodleQuickForm_hidden() in /home/ctiw111/public_html/moodle/lib/pear/HTML/QuickForm/element.php on line 363" I know this was working last Sat - as I uploaded some files. I've just been told by a techer here that this has been happening since approx Wed. Also had a phone call from hoster - he's been updating his server setting over the past few days also. But don't know it that's also having an effect. I'm going to do a full backup and backup database - with the idea of possibly updating to a more recent version of 1.9.? - hoster setting cannot install version 2.

Moodle (1.9.2) starts properly, can login properly. I can open a course - turn editing on - then under "add a resource" - I select "link to a file or website". I'm given a blank white page only (in fact there's a problem with all the items on this pull down menu). This only happened a few days back - but can't seem to find any help on Moodle forums. It's happening in school and at home (so I think I can rule out internal work servers issues or webfiltering). Moodle is remotely stored on a linux server - it's more storage and we internally manage it - so I'm not expecting the provider to be of much use (but I have asked). Appreciate any advice that anyone can offer.

Apologies had my mind on another product - that's why I removed the post in the first place.

No not yet - all the teaching staff back here for past week - so not getting much time to myself - will give it a go again asap. Intend to go back and start process from start. Thanks for getting in touch again.

Thanks for your help on this but I know when I'm stumped. I've gotten on to the webserver hosts to see if they can do it for me. I'd like to have sorted it myself but I there's a time to call a halt. Thanks again.

Thanks very much for you help on this - now getting additional error messages. It's time to call in the "big guns" who understand this better than I do. Your time and direction was appreciated.

Thank you very much for this. I'll have a go at this probably tomorrow - (today is a baby sitting day). If I can't get it sorted I'll have to consider the same route as you and set up a pc with wampserver. Thanks again.

Thanks for taking the time to answer and try and help me out - it is very much appreciated. From the cpanel - I'm getting "CentOS 5.2 Linux Kernel 2.6.18-92.1.10.el5", "Apache version 2.2.9", "MySQL version 5.0.91-community", "PHP version 5.2.6" - to be honest most of this doesn't mean much.

Apologies, just a typo. However, have made some progress. But I think solution is still in the same area - have Live login button on Login Screen but on pressing it it presents me with a blank screen. Logged in as administrator. On the left hand side, under Site Administration, selected Server> Debugging In the drop down list, choose "Developer" When I pressed the Live button this time I get "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mhash() in /home/..../public_html/test/auth/liveid/windowslivelogin.php on line 1535" This was one of the the items mentioned in my origianal posting "extension=php_mhash.dll" - anyone any advice on sorting this particular one out. Again this on a remote web server (using linux). Progress slow.... but still making progress all the same.

Apoplgies - you are correct - it should be php.ini (was in too much of a hurry for my own good).

Have a new test moodle site (v1.99) set up on a remote web server - safer that using main site. Went throught most of the instruction and got buttons on moodle page - but blank white screen presented. When I had a closer look at the instructions - I had missed a step "Environment Setup". This mentions that 6 different features of PHP need to be enabled. extension=php_mhash.dll extension=php_mcrypt.dll extension=php_openssl.dll extension=php_hash.dll extension=php_curl.dll extension=php_soap.dll And mentions the php.ini file - but on the web server install I don't have this file listed in the moodle folder. I've done a lot of seracing and don't really find a solution - one fix mention the .htaccess file (which I can find) but even if can put these lines into this file - how would I make them run? Any advice would be gratefully appreciated - this is driving me nearly mad at this stage. Ger
