Edulink gives us a better error Last build failed: failed job: Students and Applicants: failed to get details for student ID XXXXXX: Call to SIMS agent failed (attempts=3): Student.Details : SIMS.NET internal error: Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression. Two Students so far Roll over seems fine Any ideas how you can get into a Student record when doing so crashes SIMS Seen this before years ago but cannot recall the fix and being first day SIMS helplines busy TIA Alastair

Ai for condensing student data
Alastairb25 replied to browolf's topic in AI in Education & Enterprise
GDPR, what sort of data We see similar around Marking, I assume its time intensive and they want to out source such a job -
We have a mixed fleet of Unifi Discs, mainly Nano HD, LR and Some U7 The Dream machine we have has never been reliable. Are we just unlucky? The latest issue is takes ten minutes to come on and says Unable to Retrieve Status Tried reset etc to No avail We are pretty much down the Unifi path to stay with, just would be useful to hear some other experiences TIA Alastair

iPad offsite filtering / Jamf / Netsweeper
Alastairb25 replied to Alastairb25's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Addendum We built an iPad and used a Phone to Tether and Allowed Jamf to Apply settings Worked fine, inc Google Back to our Wifi (Defaults as Student filtering on Netsweeper) Straight away google.com A problem repeatedly occurred on "https://www.google.com/?client=safari&channel=ipad_bm". -
Hi All, Currently use Talkstraight Wanted to setup iPad filtering offsite, to fix any potential issue should they be taken away from the Site where they would be filtered That was duly setup.. However .. Newly built iPads no freeze Looking at logs think this is because we enabled "Global HTTP Proxy", manual and relevant details Its like that setting is going on first The iPad then gets stuck because the Cert goes on to as part of a Profile, but with that setting on it goes through the Proxy and errors due to Cert, ie the Connection being intercepted We can turn the setting back off, however it likely will not pick up the updates Only happened on some iPads today, previous ones rebuilt yesterday where ok Restrictions mean Cannot Airdrop cert Cannot Scan QR etc It seems reasonable this is the issue However cannot seem to get around it to put a Cert on Any thoughts? TIA, Alastair

Hi All, Notes given to us by our Exams department detail some AQA requirements Students can complete the tasks and produce the evidence across several sessions. Students’ evidence (either hard copy or digital) must be kept securely by the teacher and access to assessment responses must be controlled. Students aren't permitted to access their work in between the assessment sessions. How are other people meeting these requirements using Teams ? TIA, Alastair

When we rebuilt ours (July 2023) Windows 2019 and SQL 2019 where latest supported versions, snippet from Notes at time The Server must be no higher than SIMS Server 2019 and the SQL Media must be SQL2016 SP3 (IF SIMS is on V7.208, Autumn 2022) or SQL2019 (If you have SIMS upgraded to V7.210 Spring 2023). SQL Express - CANNOT be used as a database server, IF the database size exceeds 10gb, and is not recommended if any of the following are true: • Number of users is greater than twenty • School intends to make extensive use of InTouch • The customer wishes to take advantage of database servers that have more than one CPU or more than four cores .net framework 3.5 and 4.7 Webserver IIS

Might be a bodgy way of extending a network cable run.
