What is exactly the "Enroll sync plugin"? Couldn't find it under the https://docs.moodle.org/en/Enrolment_plugins.
Does it answer your question? I had a similar question: "Is LDAP enrollment also groups/groupings/cohorts capable?" https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=324567. which led to the third party plug-in https://github.com/patrickpollet/moodle_local_ldap. See also, MDL-25011.
In any case, the correct forum is "Enrolment" https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=2981 - I think.

Hi Amir
Intermittent faults are the worst kind to debug. Well, they are never _random_, unless a piece of hardware is dying slowly.
;-(
So, the first thing is find out whether they happen together with something else, heavy server load for example. Obviously you need to monitor (continuously record some system parameters) and compare the times of database failures with the load peaks.
For that, there is a dedicated forum, the "Hardware and performance" forum: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=596. You may ask the moderator to shift this discussion to that forum. In the mean time the documentation of that forum. Unfortunately you don't see them simple on the entry page (given earlier), for that you need to simulate a new discussion, "Add a new discussion topic" https://moodle.org/mod/forum/post.php?forum=94, first.

Moodle in English -> General help -> Disaster recovery -> Re: Disaster recovery

If you have the three things as explained in https://docs.moodle.org/en/Site_backup, the recovery is straight-forward: https://docs.moodle.org/en/Site_restore.
Compare what you have with those three things and report what is missing.
P.S. I, to be exact, the computer lab I looked after, had its portion of lightning experiences, in a tropical island.

Moodle in English -> General help -> Moodle changing from localhost to azure web app -> Re: Moodle changing from localhost to azure web app

No clue on azure or related "web apps" nor what a "web matrix" is. Migrating a Moodle site is documented in, well, you guessed it, https://docs.moodle.org/en/Moodle_migration.
P.S. See the P.S. in the parallel thread: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=325280#p1307013

Moodle in English -> General help -> Downloaded moodle but didnt contain the config.php file -> Re: Downloaded moodle but didnt contain the config.php file

Dear Support Team
There is no config.php file in the Moodle package. It is created during the installation! Read https://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_Moodle.
P.S. Isn't it tragic that a whole support team couldn't find the page called Installing_Moodle?
Seriously, my tone changes depending on whom I am talking to. I tend to be moderate with living persons, and ignore or curt with the "hidden".
