Tutor version Quince, Openedx: 17.06

Hi there,

I was going to test a new fresh code for a customized theme for tutor done on tutor dev.

In a complete indipendent machine, where I have a tutor local running I want to test that code if behaving /getting same result.

So I stoppend it.

Unfortunately after have run:

tutor images build openedx --no-cache

It hang all but because wsl space limit.

So I decide to run:

echo $(docker ps -a -q)|xargs -i sh -c ‘docker stop {}; docker rm {};’

to make sure to stop any other container that may interfer

After have cleaned some space with

docker system prune -a

and a complete new rebuild:

tutor images build openedx --no-cache

I still have white page at http://local.edly.io/

This even if tutor local show all services up and running without issue.

I wrongly understood that tutor local is set in order that a complkete rebuild avoid any conflict whatsoever?

I spend a certain amount of time in this and just to “stop” and “restart” the system(without success or at least only on the cli).

@carT I recategorized your post from Community to Site Operators > Tutor Help. Choosing the right category gets the right eyes on your post faster.

What version of Tutor are you running? Indicating that in your post helps us find you the right help.

Thank you. I have update the version info

@carT if this is a new installation, is there a reason you’re using Quince? Only the most recent release is supported. Quince doesn’t have a lot of the newer features such as plugin slots.

Unfortuantely the live application is on this version and am responsible for integrate some new update in term of theme. Migration to more recent version would meaning take care of a lot other more stuff, thus more complexity.

I am not sure by the way which new features you refer in term of plugin.

At moment I simply find very error prone and verz difficult to simply for example:

  1. Develop some new stuff in tutor dev instance on adedicated machine(windows host with WSL in which tutor run, with distro Ubuntu 22.04)
  2. Have Tutor local running, stopping it and rebuild (tutor openedx build images –no-cache), set proper env variable and restarting: tutor local start -d cause as wrote white page.

No errors, just not working for no reason :frowning:

Development lifecircle is been a very painful process so far.
