Question

upload the URL of the HTM AICC file to LMS

We(company) have introduced LMS and trying to figure out how to link training material with test which are located in local server and outside LMS.

We refer to a sentence in adobe help below;

‘If you are using an AICC-based LMS, publish the Adobe Captivate project and upload it to an HTTP location (your content server). Then, upload the URL of the HTM file to LMS.’

Abr http://help.adobe.com/en_US/captivate/cp/using/WSc1b83f70210cd1015881ff7211c9893458a-8000.html

We saved published AICC file which is included training materials with test created by Captivate in local server, and then linked the URL to training course in LMS which is outside LMS server.

We opened a file( located in local server) through the link and received the test with passing score. We expected that the result would be reflected to LMS transcript right after taking the test, but it wasn’t.

Do you think this is feasible method what we want to do?

If so, please let us know what is wrong with noted above and exact way to make it work.

Incidentally, we do not want to upload the zip file which is published by Captivate into LMS server because of security reason.

With this way, we confirmed that the result was reflected to LMS transcript correctly.  Thanks.

Are you certain you have published the course as AICC compatible and NOT used SCORM?

Thanks for your reply. What do you mean "AICC compatible and NOT used SCORM"?

AICC and SCORM are two different integration standards for LMS.  Captivate allows you to configure a course as either one of these standards, but not both at the same time.  AICC allows you to have the course content reside on a different server to the LMS, whereas SCORM requires that the content IS located on the same server as the LMS.  Since your content is NOT working when you have it on a different server, I'm wondering whether you have perhaps set the course for SCORM instead of AICC.

So my question is:  If you go into the Quiz > Reporting settings in your course modules, are they set for AICC or for SCORM?

Additionally, when you set this course up in your LMS, did you ensure that the LMS was expecting the course to be AICC or SCORM?  Whatever your course is configured to be, the LMS config for that course must match, otherwise they won't work together.
