General Notes for AICC TPLMS Deployment

This section provides information about hosting Skillsoft AICC content on TPLMS in general. The LMS-specific notes in the next section cover exceptions.

BS, CCA, IT, SkillSim on a Remote Content Server:

• Where this content is hosted on a different server to the LMS, it must be configured to use a Signed Java Applet.

  

• This is achieved by checking the ‘Enable signed applet’ box during the content install which will generate launch URLs in the .AU files for Signed Applet and configure launch pages enabled for Signed Applet use.

KNet content launch will not launch if content is hosted on a different server to the LMS

• For KNet content only, unless the content and LMS servers have the same domain name, a crossdomain.xml file is generally required in the web root of the LMS server in order to play KNet content.

  Workaround: Place a crossdomain.xml file on the webroot of the server hosting the LMS. The purpose of the crossdomain.xml file is to indicate to the web server that hosts the LMS, which domain(s) are allowed to post data.

  An example of a crossdomain.xml policy file:

  <cross-domain-policy>

  <allow-access-from domain="*"/>

  </cross-domain-policy>

SkillSim session time not accurately tracking:

• By default, the SkillSim Player sends multiple PutParams during a session with each PutParam reporting the time elapsed since the last PutParam rather than the time elapsed since the start of the session. This results in the TPLMS under-reporting the time spent by users playing SkillSim content.

  Workaround: Ensure the following value is set in the SimPagePlayer.Properties file.

  FULL_SESSION_TIME=true
