It does not work:
Debug info: Missing version.php file.
Stack trace:
line 601 of /lib/upgradelib.php: plugin_defective_exception thrown
line 273 of /lib/upgradelib.php: call to upgrade_plugins_blocks()

Anyway, it is a great effort!!
- Moodle 1.9.16
- Moodle 2.2.1+
Having read the instructions:
1. The plugin successfully shows on Modules.
2. I successfully create an Application ID with a secret Key.
3. I successfully created an impersonation account via powershell.
3. Then when I try to add the block:
a. In the 1.9.16 the add block menu dissapears.
b. In the 2.2.1+ I receive an error page.
Furthermore under authentication nothing regarding live id is displayed!
Ideally I want to enable two simple things:
1. Turn on the block on both versions.
2. Authenticate via Windows Live ID (Live@edu)
Has anyone tried the plugins and has a success story to share?
Thanks in advance
However the authentication returns me a 500 Internal Error...
Any ideas on what could be wrong?
gracias
However the authentication returns me a 500 Internal Error...
I removed the encryption (right click, Properties, Advanced, untick "Encrypt contents to secure data" and apply to all subfiles and folders) then the block installed OK.
If you're uploading to a Linux server I'd do this on a Windows machine then zip the files back up and then upload using the new archive you just created...
Haven't tried the authentication yet.
Again, it does not work for my Moodle 2.2.1

I have it working sort of.. If I log in manual way, the block will give the error of:
It says Warning: Windows Live ID does not match the authenticated user account.
how ever when I log in with windows ID as the authentication then the block works.
So it sort of works for me. Tried on 2.1 and 2.2
