Description

« Hide

I edited my wwwroot in moodle/config.php ($CFG->wwwroot )
Then I tried to use networking (http://docs.moodle.org/en/Moodle_Network), but when I try to connect to a remote Moodle I've got an error "Payload is not encrypted".

The bug comes from that the wwwroot hasn't been changed in the database (table: mnet_host)

I've seen this recently as well. Also, the IP needs to be correct, and the host key will need to be regenerated.

For a fix, I would suggest that when the host key is updated, that the wwwroot and IP are updated by the code too.

I will make a patch if I have a spare moment today..

Cheers,

Patch which updates the wwwroot and ip_address whenever the key is deleted.

Applied patch to 1.9 branch. It was already in 2.0! Anyway, should work now :-)

Tested on 1.9. I change the wwwroot, setup the networking, it's working fine.
Thanks for your participation/fixes.
