Hi,

I am trying to import some quiz questions into moodle and kept getting this error:

There are no questions in this file!


 
 

Error occurred during processing!

This is what my text file look like:

All of the following are major factors in determining what we eat EXCEPT the _____ of food.
A. cost
B. taste
C. shape
D. texture
Answer: C

The two most important elements in the selection of food for most people are
A) taste and texture of food.
B) health and prevention of disease.
C) time and convenience.
D) energy and fat content.
Answer: A

Could anyone see what is wrong with my formating?

Thank you,

Wayne

I got it also. The solution I did is to change Answer to ANSWER. Yes, that should do the trick.

You still need to use the "ANSWER" and ignore the "Answer" wink

All other parts of aiken format are clear.

but why does it only accept questions which are ending with " ? " in aiken format ?

I did a bit of a rewrite of Aiken a while back. See...

http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=113319

...then didn't do anything with it (as it was not quite backward compatible). It does work better IMHO.

Hi Howard, that seems pretty useful, thanks!

When I try going to the URL: question/format/aiken
I see format.php but when I try to open it, it is a blank page.

Is this because I don't have ample administrator privileges? Or is it blank by default?

Hi Ravi S, in my tutorial I happen to end my questions with a question mark. However, this is not necessary.

An acceptable question could be:
Q: Fill in the blank: Be the ______ you want to see in the world.
