Aggregator V.5 self paced learning not working

. I have 11 individual projects that I have combined into one aggregated file. When I run the aggregated file, the self-paced learning is not working correctly. Here is what I know:
Captivate 5, WIN 7, Chrome browser. Clients choice of Captivate version.
Client is not using a LMS
All 11 projects have the “self-paced learning” checked in the TOC.
I have published all 11 projects and they run fine. I can exit the browser while they are running and restart each project. The box displays, “Continue from where you stopped last time?” and I can either resume or start over.
For each of the 11 projects, here are some settings:
In >File>Publish settings>Project>Start end> Autoloader is checked
In >File>Publish settings>Project>Start end> Autoplay is checked
In >File>Publish> eLearning output=disabled
In >File>Publish>ActionScript Version=AS3
I have republished all individual projects, and also checking the “Force republish all the slides”.
Cleared the browser cache
All 11 individual projects (.swf and .html), the .js file as well as the aggregated file(s) (.swf and .html) are all located in the same folder on my hard drive. They are close to the top of the naming hierarchy.
Client wants to be able to use self-paced learning in the Aggregated files to allow the learner to resume where they left off as well as starting over. I start the aggregated file, let the slides run for a bit and then stop, exiting the browser. I return to the location on my hard drive and click the .html file name. I am returned to the aggregated file at the very beginning and not given the option to start where I left off. I have checked each of the projects persistanceInfo.sol. Among the oddball characters, the wording "don'task" appears, but I am not sure if some of the characters are indicative of the "Don't ask" box being checked or not. I have reviewed each of the projects in the aggregated file. On each and every occasion, when I close and reclick the link, I am presented with the dialog box asking if I want to continue where I left off. Clicking ok allows the project to resume where I left off. Clicking cancel restarts the project at the beginning.
Additionally, I have made sure that the target file location is listed on the Global Flash Security settings as a trusted location.I have uploaded the files to a web server on our company site. Running the file from there provides no additional benefit-I get the same results.
Thoughts?
Thanks
Jim

All slides in the presentation are marked as continue. I have gone
through the first 5 slides and when I refresh the browser or exit out of
Internet Explorer and open the project again it just starts at the
beginning.

Hello Brenda,
How did you check: after uploading to a LMS?
You have to be aware of the fact that a slide will be marked as 'viewed'
only when the playbar has played the whole slide till the end. If you do
pause slides with a click box, button, TEB and attach the action 'Go to
Next slide' or something similar instead of the default action 'Continue'
this will not happen and the slide will not be marked as completed.

TOC Self-Paced Study not working

I am not able to get my Captivate 4 videos to bookmark, I have selected TOC, self-paced study-but when I close the video after running a few slides, including an interactive one, then open again-my TOC flags are gone and it starts from the beginning.
I do not have the "Never Resume Data" checked.
Any help on this would be appreciated.

Hi there
What is your output format? I ask because this is something that could be format dependent. Meaning it would possibly work if you were using the SWF/HTML combination but not EXE.
I'm not certain that's the case, but I find it reasonable that it could be.
Cheers... Rick

Self-Paced Learning - Bookmark not working in Captivate 5

I followed the directions of adding a Table of Contents to one of my captivate projects and selecting Self-Paced Learning in order to create a bookmark but this does not work. I have saved it as Adobe Flash 9 and Adobe Flash 10 but I am not getting the message about starting where I left off when either refreshing the browser or exiting and going back in. What am I missing?
Thanks for your time,
Brenda

Self paced learning does not work properly in lms

I made a course and I want learners to go back to the point they last visited when returning.
The page last visited is remembered (It is stored in our database) but it is reset to 0 when the course is opened again.
I've tried al possible combinations in self-paced learning and 'resume data' in the quiz options.
In all combinations the page is remembered but set to 0 when the course is opened again.
What can I do to make sure the course does not reset the 'last page visited'.
I'm using Captivate 5 / and a internal lms we made ourselves.
The quiz reporting settings are:
The reporting option is enabled
Standard AICC
Complete/incomplete
Percent
Quiz results and slide views
Report score

Hello Astrid,
Too bad that each LMS has different reactions, are you sure it has this functionality. Here only the tips that are clear.
In the LMS Customization settings, check that 'Never send Resume data' is unticked.
You can turn on Self-paced learning in the TOC, but this is not a functionality about transmitting data to the LMS, it will store a cookie on the PC to have the user get back to the place where he left previously.

Synching Issues with Self-Paced Learning and Embedded Flash Files

Hi Everyone,
I'm having some issues with my files not properly synching or displaying when Self-Paced Learning is active.
Here is my set-up:
Captivate 5
5 separate Captivate files combined using the Aggregator
Each Captivate file is about 15 slides
Each slide contains an audio file (for closed-captioning) and a single SWF file - the content is all created with Flash and then inserted into Captivate using Insert > Animation
Each SWF file is back 1/10 of a second from the beginning of the Cap timeline (otherwise there are rewind issues when the user selects the slide they are currently viewing from the ToC)
Each embedded SWF has the beginning and ending fade built into it; Captivate is not doing any fading
Synch to Project is selected for each embedded SWF (although it doesn't seem to work all the time)
Self-Paced Learning is active, as well as, Enable Navigation
It is not being loaded to an LMS or using any built-in Captivate quiz features. These are instead custom built AS3 Flash files that are embedded.
Windows 7, 4GB RAM, 1GB Video Card, High-end Processor, etc... a beast.
The Issue:
When the user opens the course, views it for a while and then closes it and returns it will display the first slide of the course for a moment before jumping to the bookmarked slide. This slight timing misstep causes the bookmarked slide to get out of synch. It will sometimes not display the bookmarked slide at all or it will cut-off a small bit from the end of the slide (even with Synch to Project active). It sometimes works fine but randomly will break. The course is set to 100% preload and nothing is being loaded from an external location. It seems to work fine until Self-Paced Learning is activated.
I don't think this is a common development approach for Captivate but it has been very successful with some clients. Has anyone encounted similar issues or does anyone have some suggestions that might resolve this problem?
Thanks!
Greg

It's been mentioned many times on this forum that nesting Captivate SWFs inside other Captivate SWFs gives rise to all kinds of strange issues. Captivate was not designed to work this way. If you choose to do it, and you encounter issues (as you have done) there's usually NOT a lot you can do. There are just too many ways the SWFs can get into bun fights over which one does what.
I suggest you rethink your approach to avoid nesting.

Does Self-Paced Learning require the Enable Navigation?

Good morning.
I'm working with multiple Cap4 generated swf files aggregated into one swf/html project incorporating the Self-Paced Learning feature (in the TOC). After I published the project, I opened it & went through a few slides, then closed the project. The Resume feature would not work, so I selected the Enable Navigation feature along with the Self-Paced Learning feature, and now the Resume function works! Is this a bug? Is it possible for me to get the Resume feature to work without enabling Navigation? I have to control the sequence my audience takes in my project, so enabling Navigation is not desirable. Implementing an LMS is not possible in my circumstances.

Self paced learning/quiz/HTML5 issue

Back again! My current project has self paced learning in place. We definitely want the student to be able to return to their last spot if they exit. This works fine throughout the whole course in the swf and html5 versions, until the quiz. The swf version functions correctly in the quiz, and returns you to where you last exited. In html however, if you select "OK" upon relaunch, it takes you to the beginning of the quiz. "CANCEL" takes you to your last (quiz) slide. In both instances, the quiz submit button does not function and you cannot navigate.
I've tried numerous setting and have had zero luck fixing this issue. Any ideas would be appreciated because the client does want to keep self paced learning.
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
I have a question regarding your post. I have a quiz (created in Captiave 7) and I can not get the quiz to return to where I exited in the swf. How were you able to do that? Are you using an LMS? Are you using the Quiz Results slide? If so, what settings?
I have Self Paced Learning checked (in the TOC Settings) and I have a slide after the Quiz Results slide that closes the project (Project > Start and End > Project End Options: Action: Close Project) and whenever I try to go back in, I go to this slide that automatically closes the project.
On thing I was told on the forum is "Self-paced Learning bookmarking is disabled as soon as you turn on LMS reporting." Again, I'm not sure if you're using an LMS but that was something I did not know.
Thanks,
Peter

TOC Self-Paced Learning

Captivate v5.5
I am trying to test the Self-Paced Learning option on the TOC.
I have created a CBT with a TOC and have selected the Self-Paced Learning option.
I run the project (F4) and stop it after 3 chapters. I look at the TOC and there are the required green ticks on the TOC for the first 3 chapters - all fine so far.
Then I run the project again (F4) but the project starts from slide 1 and the ticks are no longer visible.
Will this option only work once the project has been uploaded to our LMS or am I doing something wrong ?
Thanks in advance,
Noel

Actually, the Self Paced Learning option is of no use at all if you have published your project with settings to report to an LMS. It can only be used when Quiz Settings > Enable Reporting for this Project is deselected.
When publishing for an LMS, Captivate always assumes you will be using Resume Data bookmarking, NOT Self Paced Learning bookmarking.
However, although Resume Data Bookmarking is designed for LMS integration, it does not update the Captivate TOC markers on subsequent user sessions as does Self Paced Learning.
It's one of those nice little Catch 22 situations...

Self-Paced Learning

Hi,
I would like to remove the pop-up message "Continue from where you stopped last time?"; however, even though I uncheck Self-Paced Learning, it still pops up.
I am using Captivate 7.0
I am NOT publishing to a LMS
I have unchecked the Self-Paced Learning check box
My published files reside on a ftp site
Do you have any ideas?
Thank you,
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
If you have unchecked that option then it should not prompt this message.
Can you open your published output in any other browser, may be it is picking that course from browser history or cache, (if you might have published with self-paced checked earlier).
In whcih format have you published the output? .swf or HTML 5?
Have you enabled the reporting in your project?
Thanks.

WSUS "Self-update is not working" after new certificate

After creating a new self-signed certificate in SBS 2008 wizard we get the following error:
Text: Self-update is not working
Source: Windows Server Update Service
Event id: 13042
I know that it must be something simple. But I can not find the solution.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks

Hi,
Based on your description and this error message, this issue may be caused by:
The Default Web Site is not running and/or has a site binding for SSL (HTTPS).
The Selfupdate virtual directory has the "Require SSL" checked under the SSL settings.
For more details, please refer to the following KB and check if can help you to solve this issue.
WSUS 3.0 Self-update is not working on Windows Small Business
Server and Event ID 13042 is generated
If anything I misunderstand or any update, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Hope this helps.

Self-Paced Learning - Two learners on a PC

Hi There,
I just wanted to confirm something with the TOC and self-paced learning.
If two people are sharing a computer and each is taking the same course with self-paced learning turned on - do they share the same cookie and therefore both resume at the same place? Or if they logged into the same computer differently and used the course would there be a Captivate cookie for each separate login?
Thanks in advance!

Thank you - that is what I thought but just wanted to check because I couldn't find it documented anywhere.
Thanks so much!

ISE upgrade 1.2: Self-provisioning portal not working

Hi all,
I need help with Self-Provisioning portal flow not showing the agent installation page after upgrade from 1.1.1 to 1.2 on a couple of 3315. I've configured all the pieces as instructed by BYOD SBA guide at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/SBA/February2013/Cisco_SBA_SLN_BYOD_InternalCorporateAccessDeploymentGuide-Feb2013.pdf
Screenshot of page is attached:
I've checked ise-console.log application log file and found two errors correponding to the first page:
[portal-http-84431][] SystemConsole -::c0a8a82a000000d7523c70f9::guest:- com.cisco.cpm.provisioning.exception.ProvisioningException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: Unable to initialize, java.io.IOException: DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=127, too big.

and the second (not working) one:
[portal-http-84431][] SystemConsole -:xxxxx@xxxxxxx:c0a8a82a000000d7523c70f9::guest:- java.lang.NullPointerException

Looks like something is wrong with a certification file, but I cannot find what is. I've exported and re-installed current server certificates (as instructed by upgrade guide for 1.2) and nothing changed.
Can somebody please help?
Thanks,

Errors When Adding Devices to My Devices Portal
Employees cannot add a device that is already added if another employee has previously added the device so that it already exists in the Cisco ISE endpoints database.
If employees are attempting to add a device that supports a native supplicant, recommend that they use that instead. That registration process will overwrite the original registration and switch ownership to the new user.
If the device is a MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) device, such as a printer, then you must resolve ownership of the device, and if appropriate, remove the device from the endpoints database so that the new owner can successfully add the device.

Self secured page not working in multiple sessions of same browser

Hi
I have created a selfsecured page by making security mode of page 'selfsecured' and adding validateParameter() in page controller.I didnt do guest user/resp setup as I want user to manually provide user id and choose responsibility,XLA_LINESINQ_GL_DRILLDOWN is a seeded function so no changes there.
I am seeing very inconsistent behavior.
1)At some times when I invoke function through url
http://rws60180rems.us.oracle.com:8049/OA_HTML/RF.jsp?function_id=XLA_LINESINQ_GL_DRILLDOWN&jeHeaderId=64524&jeLineNum=1&jeSource=Payables&searchType=customize
I get error "You are not authorized to access the function SLA: View Subledger Journal Entry Linesfrom a GL Journal Line. Please contact your System Administrator."
2)On other times url works and user is taken to Ebs R12 login page,after providing login credentials user is able to view the page.But If I invoke same url or url with different parameters in different tab of browser or different window of same browser,get following error.Basically user can invoke this function and use this url only one at a time which is not practical in real world
"You are trying to access a page that is no longer active.
- You may have attempted to access to this page directly by bookmarking the page or copying the URL. This page does not support bookmarking.
- The referring page may have come from a previous session. Please select Home to proceed."
Am I missing something in my implementation?Are there any fnd profiles which control page behavior.Does OAF support that self secured pages successfully open in multiple browser windows.
Preeti

Hi,
Is there any specific requirement to make the page as self secured, as most of the self selcured pages are build for guest user account. If there is any, kindly share.
Now lets talk about the behaviour of the pages in different scenarios
1) I get error "You are not authorized to access the function SLA: View Subledger Journal Entry Linesfrom a GL Journal Line. Please contact your System Administrator."
Comment: As OAF pages does certain initialization like setting org_id, language etc based on the login user. But as you are trying to access the page by directly hitting the URL on browser, this might be one of the reason that you are getting above error.
2) On other times url works and user is taken to Ebs R12 login page,after providing login credentials user is able to view the page.But If I invoke same url or url with different parameters in different tab of browser or different window of same browser,get following error.Basically user can invoke this function and use this url only one at a time which is not practical in real world
Comment: As there is an active transaction and session for the browser, so it won't allow you to start with another transaction. But still can you try to do the same in another machine. Some of the browser allows you to have different session.

Gyan

Self Extracting Archives not working?

I downloaded a file that comes as a .sea (self extracting archive). Rumor has it I'm supposed to double click it to extract, but when I do, OS X asks me what program I want to use. The exact same file just opens on my friend's machine running Tiger, but not mine?
Questions:
1. Shouldn't it just open it? I thought that was the point... Anything I need to setup ot make it work?
2. In my efforts to solve it, I picked "Stuffit Expander" when it asked me what App to use to open the .sea. How can I un-register .sea with Stuffit so that, in case Tiget does decide to finally open the file, it isn't being sent to Stuffit?
Thanks

Very weird how they created that file.
When I double click on HPA3.sea, the OS asks what I want to open it with. Meaning that the file has no extension (visible or hidden) and no type/creator tags. So the OS has no idea what to do with it.
So I launched Stuffit Deluxe and chose it through the Open command. It then says, "The archive you are opening cannot be browsed. Would you like to expand it instead?". I choose yes, and it creates a file named "HPA3.1.sea", which still has no icon, but behaves like an application when I double click it. It then goes on to install some Photoshop actions.
So if you drop it on the Stuffit Expander, you should be getting another similarly named file. Either in the same location as the original, or in the folder where the Expander sits. If you're not getting it in either location, then try downloading the latest Expander from Allume's site. The Expander is free.

Recommendations API by Azure Machine Learning - not working

I purchased the Recommendations API by Azure Machine Learning using the marketplace. When I go to the API explorer and the quickstart
screen, all i see is the rotating circles. I waited for about 10 minutes...no luck. I tried the sample app and it seem to build, run and work. Not sure what's going with the azure portal UI. Is
anyone really using it in prod?

This is a known issue in the Azure Management Portal, and it is being worked one. That said, it is only a visual glitch in the quick start page. You should be able to click on the DASHBOARD tab, and be able to access all the links required to use the Recommendations
API.
The marketplace in the management portal is in "PREVIEW" mode right now, and this is one of the issues that needs to be fixed there.
thanks!
