Hi everyone,
At my college, we are currently running WeBWorK 2.19 on Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS. We’re trying to integrate it with D2L Brightspace using LTI 1.3, but it’s not working as expected.
This semester, students are logging in directly using bulk-created accounts. However, I’d like to get the LTI integration working by the summer term so students can log in via Brightspace.
We followed the configuration steps from the official guide:
https://webwork.maa.org/wiki/Desire2Learn_Brightspace_LTI_1.3_Configuration
The server itself is running fine. But when we try to access WeBWorK through a Brightspace link, it redirects to the login page with this URL:https://webwork.qcc.cuny.edu/webwork2/ltiadvantage/login
Even when I try to log in using my admin credentials, I get the following error:
"No WeBWorK course was found associated to this LMS course. If this is an error, please contact the WeBWorK system administrator."
I’ve enabled $debug_lti_parameters = 1; but no debug info is displayed when accessing WeBWorK via the Brightspace link.
I've double-checked the settings and everything seems correct—but clearly, something’s off.
I’d really appreciate any suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Below, I’ve included the registration information, configuration settings, and relevant debug.log message from one of my LTI login attempts.
Thanks in advance for any help!
