When creating a new course, it does not create svn repositry. Was it supposed to be taken care by the installation or do we have to configure it ourselves? The following error pops up when trying to preview the content developed

03:04:38,053 ERROR [org.jboss.as.ejb3.invocation] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-default-Thread-3) WFLYEJB0034: EJB Invocation failed on component ResourceDeliveryManager for method public com.google.gson.JsonElement edu.cmu.oli.content.boundary.managers.ResourceDeliveryManager.previewResource(edu.cmu.oli.content.security.AppSecurityContext,java.lang.String,java.lang.String,boolean): javax.ejb.EJBTransactionRolledbackException: Error previewing resource: Resource not part of a valid SVN repository.

So a couple of things to mention here:

  1. The SVN repository that the authoring-server will automatically sync your course content with is not created automatically by the development environment. You would have to create this repository externally, and then update the URLs in the authoring-server configuration to point to your SVN repo. That SVN repository, though, isn't strictly necessary to have in place for you to successfully run the authoring platform and create and author a course locally. The SVN repo acts as a "bridge" to the OLI content delivery system - the system that actually delivers courses to students.

  2. The "Preview Course" feature relies heavily on OLI development servers (and in fact, the presence of course material stored in SVN). We haven't fully worked out yet how to make these internal OLI development servers available to external developers like yourself - so at the moment the "Preview Course" feature will not work in your environment. You can, however, preview individual workbook pages using the "Preview" button in upper right hand corner.

I'd like to learn more about your interest in OLI and the OLI authoring platform. Is it your intention to develop a course? Is there anything that we here at OLI can do to help? Feel free to email me at darrensiegel at cmu.edu.

I'm going to rename this issue '"Preview Course" feature does not work' and leave it open.
