ILIAS 8 Install Tutorial for Ubuntu 22.04

PlugIns

  • PlugIns are always a pain in the ass (sorry)
  • Here is described how to live bist with:
    • BigBlueButton
    • EtherpadLite

EtherpadLite

cd /var/www/html/ilias/Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/EtherpadLite
sudo -u www-data git pull
sudo -u www-data git branch -a
sudo -u www-data git checkout release_9
cat plugin.php
#Must fit with your desired ILIAS release:
#$ilias_min_version = "9.0";
#$ilias_max_version = "9.999";
#Plugin-Homepage: https://github.com/ILIAS-Verein/EtherpadLite

BigBlueButton

cd /var/www/html/ilias/Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/BigBlueButton
#Its the same as above. 
 
 
#In this case I had trouble with the latest commit.
#Display the current commit:
git rev-parse HEAD
#Example: 24887e9d26e4ef2c5b822cb9667938498ab4dcd9
 
#I want to select a branch:
sudo -u www-data git branch -a
sudo -u www-data git checkout release_8
sudo -u www-data git checkout master
 
#Where am I?
git rev-parse HEAD
#gives fc32a8bde941ed8f32e385985dde57bf08f371a0
 
#return to 24887e9d26e4ef2c5b822cb9667938498ab4dcd9
sudo -u www-data git checkout 24887e9d26e4ef2c5b822cb9667938498ab4dcd9
 
#Show commit log:
 
sudo -u www-data:www-data git log

Error handling

Wrong right setting

#Error: fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository
#Solution (example): git config --global --add safe.directory /var/www/html/ilias/Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/BigBlueButton
#Try again eg sudo -u www-data git pull
chown -R www-data:www-data  /var/www/html/ilias/Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/BigBlueButton
#If error persists try without sudo: git pull

You are not currently on a branch

sudo -u www-data git branch -a
sudo -u www-data git checkout release_8
