Some students are getting this error at the bottom of the page upon entering WW. Not all students get the error.  I can't seem to find the right web search terms to figure out the issue/fix.

Help  would be appreciated. Thanks! 

Diff server vs oauth error

Hello Tim,


I had the same problem, But it was happening with ALL my test students. Alex Jordan was able to determine that it was due to a particular line of code.

He and Nathan Wallace were able to fix it for Version 2.16.

So... the question is whether you got the updated version for 2.16 which was made in Early August this year if I Recall.

I am sorry I can not not offer more help.

HI Tim,

Thank you for your reply, that is helpful.

We upgraded on August 5th, so it sounds like that may not have been late enough to include the fix.
To bring us up to date would the following be the appropriate commands?.

cd /opt/webwork/webwork2
git branch
* main
release/2.16
git pull

Thanks again.
Tim.

Sorry, but I am not confident in knowing if that was the right branch.

But i bet that Alex Jordan, or Nathan Wallace would know right off.

Best, tim

main is the correct branch.  You just need to run "git pull" from the /opt/webwork/webwork2 directory.  Then restart apache2 with "sudo systemctl restart apache2".

That warning is now only shown when LTI debugging is enabled.

There have been several other bug fixes added since August 5th as well.
