Itay,


Recently, all the searches for resources that I have committed have
failed.


Your LON-CAPA library server is currently unable to sustain outbound connections to a number of other LON-CAPA servers in the network. (I tested connectivity for a couple of LON-CAPA nodes -- at both educog.com and msu.edu).

Inbound connections from other LON-CAPA servers to the dedicated LON-CAPA port on your server are working, so students from the jce domain are able to have their sessions hosted on both msu and educog nodes.

As a workaround you might try your search in a web session hosted on one of the MSU LON-CAPA servers.

Outbound "LON-CAPA" connections from your server to the dedicated LON-CAPA port on other nodes don't seem to be working. I would recommend asking your server administrator to restart the LON-CAPA daemons on your server using:

/etc/init.d/loncontrol restart

If that does not resolve the issue, you might ask if your institution has implemented firewall rules in your network which could block outbound connections to the dedicated LON-CAPA port on remote servers.

You might also use Main Menu > Browse Resources to see if you can browse published resources from any domains besides your own.

The IP rules at an OS level for the MSU LON-CAPA library server, and also at the MSU network border both allow inbound connections from the IP address of the LON-CAPA library server in the jce domain to the standard LON-CAPA port.

Hi



Recently, all the searches for resources that I have committed have
failed. With no exception.
These include searches with single words such as 'force',
'acceleration', 'mass', using the basic mechanism.
I kept the "use related words" check box 'on'.

The response of the system was always the same : 'There are 0 matches to
your query.'


Any idea what could go wrong?



In the past, searching on such ubiquitous words always gave lots of
hits.


Thanks in advance

Itay
