Hi! I've an installation behind a proxy. The proxy is administered not by me. In the proxy there's a rule that rewrite the URL, mapping
http://<myserver>/ATutor/ to http://fing.edu.uy/iimpi/e-cursos/.
This is causing several problems using the software...
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mario

Ask the admins to disable the proxy.

Sorry Joel, this is not an option.
Anything else?

This is the platform we're using:
ATutor 1.5.3 (last post were using 1.5.4) but we downgrade due to translation problems...
Windows XP with webdeveloper which include:
* Apache 2.2.4
o httpd.conf (optimized and minimized, modular design, secured, setup for SSL, PHP5, CGI, mod_security, mod_fastcgi, mod_deflate, mod_perl, Access Control)
o mod_ssl (OpenSSL 0.9.8e)
o mod_deflate (zlib 1.2.3)
o mod_fastcgi 2.4.2
* OpenSSL 0.9.8e
* Perl 5.8.8
o libwww-perl
o libwin32
o NET::SSLeay
o URI
o HTML::Template
o HTML::Parser
o Compress::Zlib
o FCGI
* mod_perl 2.0.3
* mod_security 2.1.0
* PHP 5.2.1
* MySQL 5.0.37
o DBI
o DBD::mysql
o DBD::mysqlPP
o Net::MySQL
* phpMyAdmin 2.10.0.2 (Setup for multi-user environment; Relational Features enabled)
* analog 6.0
Again: we're behind a proxy that rewrites de URL.
From anybrowser the URL is http://www.fing.edu.uy/iimpi/e-cursos when the real server is http://gurney.fing.edu.uy/ATutor (which cannot be accessed outside fing.edu.uy)
Please, some help or information?
Thanks,
Mario

Try replacing the value of the <base href> element in the include/header.inc.php file of the theme you're using, with a hard coded proxy URL.

Thanks, Greg. That seems to work...now I'm checking.
I discover another problems.
Imagine that a course (id=1) has this structure under content directory:
content/1/teorico
content/1/practico
content/1/imagenes
The course pages have url like ./teorico/capitulo1.pdf. I think that's ok. But, when I enter the course that url is resolve as
http://www.fing.edu.uy/iimpi/e-cursos/teorico/capitulo1.pdf.
As you can see, the reference to the course itself is missing.
Thanks,
Mario

Actually the base href is dynamic, so you won't be able to use a hard coded one. There's nothing more we can suggest at the moment. I've posted it to the features tracker, but it may be a while before we can get to it.
It might make it into the next release, a few weeks away, if there were funds to pay for the work. Or you could try to solve the problem yourself, and we could integrate your solution into a coming release.
