Hi folks

On my Moodle site, I get this message when I go to
Site Administration | Server | Environment

"php_extension    xmlrpc    should be installed and enabled for best results

Installing the optional xmlrpc extension is useful for Moodle Networking functionality."

(See attached jpg).

How can I install this xmlrpc thing?

To install the xmlrpc library on Windows 1. Open the php.ini file found in the moodle/apache/bin folder 2. Find the line: ;extension=php_xmlrpc.dll 3. Remove the ; at the beginning of the line 4. Restart apache if necessary To install the xmlrpc library on Linux/Unix If you are using PHP as provided by the OS, you can just install the appropriate package, and restart apache: * On Ubuntu and Debian, the command is: apt-get install php5-xmlrpc * On RedHat, Fedora, CentOS and SuSE, the command is: yum install php-xmlrpc If you compiled your PHP from source 1. You need to recompile PHP from source 2. add --with-xmlrpc to the command line when you run configure
