STACK configuration when moodle is wrapped in docker

Hi moodlers,

I've installed a moodle environment which is wrapped in this docker containers.

Now, i've tried to use qtype_stack but there's an issue with the configuration related to the maxima command. Maixma is located (as usual) at /usr/bin/maxima, but the health-check-script is telling me that STACK can't connect to maxima. Do I have to adapt the maxima-path due to the reason that moodle is running in a docker-container?


Best,

Alex

If you are going down the Docker route, I would recommend running Maxima in a separate container. These nice people have done most of the necessary work: https://github.com/mathinstitut/goemaxima.

Hi Tim,

thank you very much for your post!
Finally, I was able to test STACK via https://projects.gwdg.de/projects/netzwerk-mathe-digital/wiki/stack-maxima-pool-technical-details#The-goemaxima-Server

Best,
Alex
