required password field automatically filled with characters

Hi,

Has anyone come across this?

When restoring a course which has hot potato quizzes, the "required password" fields are restored having extraneous characters...rendering the quizzes unavailable to students...also resulting in repetitive corrections.

We are using...
PHP 5.2.6
Postgres 8.3.3
Apache 2.0/Linux
Moodle 1.9.2+

Thank you.

Hi Karen,
maybe the following post is related:
In fact the more I look at that post, the more it seems to be similar: restoring to a PG database, and strange characters are inserted into the textfields. I wouldn't be surprised if your student feedback and subnet fields are messed up too. In which case you can probably fix it by running the SQL statement givcen in the above post.

If that doesn't work - or even if it does, please let us know
Gordon
