Hi Everyone.


We are trying to restore a mbz (it is located in temp/backup/restore/baa6149889a780d8d0dc4aaa903471ee7a45b8c4.mbz) that contains  just a quiz. We want to restore in a created course (eg courseid=49)

// Transaction
      $transaction = $DB->start_delegated_transaction();

      $folder = 'restore';
      $mycourse = 49;

      $controller = new restore_controller($folder, $mycourse,backup::INTERACTIVE_YES, backup::MODE_GENERAL, $USER->id,backup::TARGET_CURRENT_ADDING);
      $controller->get_logger()->set_next( new output_indented_logger(backup::LOG_INFO, false, true) );
      $controller->execute_precheck();
      $controller->execute_plan();
      $controller->destroy();
We found Excepción - Call to a member function set_excluding_activities() on null
How can we do it? The function parameters are right?

Thanks in advanced

Regards!!

Hi,

In case it can be useful, you have to leave the uncompressed files of the .mbz in moodledata/temp/backup/rs

Then if you want to restore in a created course (eg 48) you may use

     $folder = '/rs/';
     $mycourse = 48;
     echo "Overwriting current content of existing course -> Course ID: $mycourse\n";
     $rc = new restore_controller($folder, $mycourse, backup::INTERACTIVE_NO, backup::MODE_GENERAL, $USER->id, 0);
     $rc->execute_precheck();
     $rc->execute_plan();
     $rc->destroy();
Regards!!

Am not a developer ... so pardon 'stupid' questions ... how else should one learn! smile

First, the /rs/ directory is required ... I see that in the code clip.

But the entire clip above ... what is it?  Entire contents of a [name].php script that resides where?

Or is the code clip inserted into some core code?

Thanks, in advance, Ken

No problem Ken smile

the /rs/ directory is my own name in this example, just have to exist  moodledata/temp/backup/rs

here the files of the copy

The code is part of the development of a block, as external plugin
