Tutor local launch after install/enabling plugin

[Ivor_Scott]

Why is it necessary to run tutor local launch after installing and enabling a plugin?

I am automating tutor deployments from my pipeline and noticed in the browser that I was missing environment variable definitions required by plugins (tutor-mfe).

I basically only ran tutor local launch once with the non-interactive flag in my pipeline then built up the tutor instance declaratively with a series of commands: adding config, plugins, enabling plugins etc. Then performed a tutor local reboot --detach but it looks like I should really do a tutor local launch (time consuming). This makes it less desirable to run automatically every time in my pipeline.

I’m assuming tutor local launch retrieves any required configurations from the installed plugins. Not sure why the plugin command wouldn’t do this.

UPDATED

As I expected running tutor local launch a second time doesn’t work. It broke my working tutor installation.

Hi. To answer the question about using tutor local launch after adding a plugin, the launch command internally does the update of configuration and environment. This is not done by reboot. When a plugin is added, the launch is needed to ensure the hooks added by the plugin (in actions and filters) are looped into to tutor core.
https://docs.tutor.edly.io/plugins/intro.html#introduction

Also, looking at the traceback, it seems your LMS service is not working as expected. Typically, if you are not using any custom edx-platform and are only adding plugins/updating configs, the launch should not cause any issues. What is printed in LMS logs (tutor local logs --tail=500 lms)?

[joel.edwards]

lms-url=“http://lms:8000”
studio-url=“http://cms:8000”

503 Server Error: Service Unavailable for url: http://lms:8000/oauth2/access_token)

it looks to me like your URL’s are not configured correctly?
As a side note you should avoid using “edX” in your site name/url as per the Trademarks agreement:

• Do NOT use or register a domain name with any edX Marks.
  Your domain names may not include any edX Marks or other words that are confusingly similar to an edX Mark. Examples of unacceptable domains include:
  • openedx.yourdomain.org
  • edx.yourdomain.org
  • openedxyourdomain.org
  • yourdomain-edx.com

[Ivor_Scott]

Regarding the domain name, this is just a development environment and it’s not publicly hosted.

Currently, we only made a few changes to the default setup.

We followed the tutor documentation to run open edx behind a web proxy.
https://docs.tutor.edly.io/tutorials/proxy.html

Our setup uses Traefik, which forwards traffic to Caddy and it’s working correctly. But as soon as I login as a user (with the MFE plugin enabled) I get redirected to a broken page. MFE creates a new login form. When we disable MFE, logging in through the default login form works as expected with no redirect issues.

It is obvious now that this is due to our changes to the domain name conventions.

It looks fine.

We are still searching for a solution while using the mfe plugin. I have confirmed the issue is with the urls we use. Everything works as expected when we don’t use a subdomain for the LMS_HOST.

For example:

LMS_HOST=charite.local
CMS_HOST=studio.charite.local
MFE_HOST=apps.charite.local
ECOMMERCE_HOST=ecommerce.charite.local
DISCOVERY_HOST=discovery.charite.local
PREVIEW_LMS_HOST=preview.charite.local

Unfortunately, this is not an option for us. We do plan to deploy a public version of open edx eventually (without edx in the domain name ) We already have a website at “charite.de” so LMS_HOST needs to exist as a subdomain.

MFE seems to required additional configuration to use the urls we have:

LMS_HOST=best-edx.charite.local
CMS_HOST=best-edx-studio.charite.local
MFE_HOST=best-edx-apps.charite.local
ECOMMERCE_HOST=best-edx-ecommerce.charite.local
DISCOVERY_HOST=best-edx-discovery.charite.local
PREVIEW_LMS_HOST=best-edx-preview.charite.local

This issue is a duplicate from:

Tutor mfe plugin fresh startup error

Good day fellow Developers! I recently installed open edx tutor on a fresh instance. I followed the instructions on the open edx tutor documentation and everything seems to be working fine. But there seems to be a problem with the tutor-MFE plugin. There are times that it works, and there are times that it don’t. For example, if I would click the “Profile” or “Account” tab here: [image] It would redirect me to the MFE_HOST. But on my end, there are times that it displays what is to be expecte…

When attempting to enter a course's home on Learning MFE, Error: getLocale called before configuring i18n

The situation is the same for me. openedx-language-preference is set on the lms dashboard as seen in the picture. [image] But on the mfe profile page there are no cookies set at all. Here is the Network console: [image]

I simply created a new environment variable: BASE_DOMAIN=charite.local and a plugin to patch settings.

from tutor import hooks

hooks.Filters.ENV_PATCHES.add_items(
    [    
        (
            "lms-env",
            """
"SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN": ".{{ BASE_DOMAIN }}"
"""
        ),
        (
            "cms-env",
            """
"SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN": ".{{ BASE_DOMAIN }}"
"""
        ),
        (
            "openedx-cms-production-settings",
            """
SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN: ".{{ BASE_DOMAIN }}"
"""
        ),
        (
            "openedx-lms-production-settings",
            """
SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN: ".{{ BASE_DOMAIN }}"
"""
        )
    ]
)

Patches append a new variable to the files, it doesn’t replace the old values which creates a duplicate. This seems unintuitive but the last key is always read so it works.
