I wanted to follow up with more detail, to know exactly where the problem is.
First, we just upgraded to the most recent stable build of 1.7.5+. And after the upgrade, all of my beautiful equations "disappeared." They are still properly entered if I edit the resource/post, but in the page/forum itself there is a space.
I ran this "http://-our moodle server-/filter/tex/texdebug.php". And every time I get the following error message.
DB cache_filters entry for \frac{x}{y} not found -or- sh: /usr/moodle/cwa/filter/tex/mimetex.linux: Permission denied The shell command "/usr/moodle/cwa/filter/tex/mimetex.linux" -e "/usr/moodle_data/cwa/filter/tex/5268a594bf38cb0fdd461f258fefe10d.gif" '\Large \frac{x}{y}' returned status = 126 File size of mimetex executable /usr/moodle/cwa/filter/tex/mimetex.linux is 491043 The file permissions are: 100644 The md5 checksum of the file is c294ab11905323bb5cb0f451241bedc1 Image not found!I do not have access to the server, since it is hosted off-site. So, while I am asking the host to check permissions on the filter/tex folder, is there anything else I can do from my end to fix this?
Try to explain it to a 3rd grader because I am a total n00b.
Thanks! (especially Mauno and Marc )
