      1. Configure git to not automatically change line endings
      2. Copy a version of lib/dml/oci_native_moodle_package.sql from a release zip file before the initial installation on Oracle
    • Hide

      Requirements:

      • Windows OS
      • Git set to auto change line endings (core.autocrlf needs to be set to true)

      Test:

      1. Check out Moodle
      2. Use the Moodle docker image to create an Oracle based environment (https://github.com/moodlehq/moodle-docker)
      3. Now ensure that a Moodle test environment installs:  

        bin/moodle-docker-compose exec webserver php admin/tool/behat/cli/init.php

      1. If the database installs then this change has worked.

      Staring the docker environment:

      If using Docker toolbox (rather than native docker) you will need to run the commands provided by:

      docker-machine env

      You will need to run:

      SET MOODLE_DOCKER_DB=oracle
      		 
      SET MOODLE_DOCKER_WWWROOT=path/to/moodle
      		 
      bin\moodle-docker-compose up -d

      Git can be configured to auto convert line endings of files in Moodle.

      This is useful on Windows as:

      • many editors default to using crlf, rather than just lf
      • it ensures that the code put into repositories when submitting patches only contain Unix line endings

      however with this configured to be on the lib/dml/oci_native_moodle_package.sql file also has it's line endings changed.

      When there are Windows line endings in the file Moodle will not split it into it's separate queries correctly, which results in Moodle not creating the MOODLELIB package correctly on Oracle when it first connects.

      It is possible to force the file to always have Unix line endings via the .gitattributes file file using:

      lib/dml/oci_native_moodle_package.sql text eol=lf

      This will ensure that the file will always function correctly no matter a user's git settings.
