Hi. We are finding that some of our courses (three so far) have had grades changed for the students in bulk to the max grade possible all at the same time, by the Admin User via CLI. No one has change the grades, in fact know one actually knows how to change them in bulk by triggering the CLI as we are fairly new with Moodle.
Example from Grade History:
| Friday, 11 August 2017, 10:00 AM | Student1 | e10612@citycollege.ac.uk | Facilitating Change in HSC Assignment Jan 17 Submission | 3.00 | 5.00 | Admin User | mod/assign | No | No | No |
Then when you look into the site logs for that time you see:
| 11/08/17, 10:00 | Admin User | Student1 | Course: Unit 26: Facilitating Change in HSC | System | User graded |
| The user with id '2' updated the grade with id '228' for the user with id '692' for the grade item with id '67'. | cli |
The above is for every student in that course.
I can't see in the logs anything that triggers a bulk grade change. I've checked scheduled tasks and there are none executed at that time. I don't know exactly where to look for additional logs for scheduled tasks in the Linux install, but would appreciate the information.
Moodle info: Moodle 3.1.3+ (Build: 20161129)
Linux, CentOS 6
The course aggregate is set to Natural and the weights at 100%. I can see in the logs that they don't adjust the grade.
I haven't turned on debugging as it happens randomly with two/three week gaps.
So my questions, besides has anyone had this, are:
- Is there a way to set max grades in bulk within Moodle?
- Is there any logs or Moodle section that you can see what actually triggers CLI actions? And can you tell me where to find them?
- Where are the schedule task logs in CentOS? Are there other logs I should be looking into to find this in Linux?
