LTI WeBWorK - BlackBoard

Hi there,

I have set up LTI between BlackBoard and WeBWorK in anticipation of the new teaching year with starts September using the instructions here WebWork - University IT (rochester.edu).

I have contacted IT admin at our institution expressing the need to 'road test' the LTI and suggested that they set up (a) fake student account(s) in order that I can enrol the fake student(s) on the modules in with I will be using WW in order to test the direct access from BlackBoard and the grade sharing ahead of teaching this academic year.

My IT admin suggested the following

'If you start a "Student Preview" the KLE [BlackBoard] will create a student account within the KLE [BlackBoard] you can use to test LTI links'

Having followed the above advice the link throws the error included below the dashed line. May I ask members of the forum:

  • Has my IT admin given me the correct advice? 
  • How have other forum members tested the LTI?
  • Does the error message reveal anything that I may have missed?

Any help gratefully received.

Thanks,

Zak

The warning message that you posted shows that authentication worked.  Note that the reason the warning message is displayed is because you have $debug_lti_parameters = 1 in your authen_LTI.conf file.  Set that to 0 for production usage.  Then the warning will not be shown.
