Setup on VMware vsphere env

Hello all,

We are trying to get Webworks setup on VMware vsphere, but we are running into issues with the services that are not running properly. We got to the testing part of the article and the webworks screen popped up, but not the course administration and the mytest course. Let me know if anyone has any advice on this, and or have any documentation on setting this up on VMware Vsphere.

It sounds like you are using the Virtual Machine image.  There shouldn't be anything special about running it within VMware Vsphere.  Since you are seeing the webwork screen (I'm assuming you mean in your browser) then the web server is running and serving pages, so likely the issue has to do with configuration within the VM.

The first thing to check is that the courses folder (/opt/webwork/courses) is readable by the web server.
