Hi again Jacques,
The error says during installation of mod_publication in your Moodle instance, Moodle core tries to create mod_publication's main table (holding instance data) and fails due to it being already present.
I tried a complete new installation (once Moodle 3.3.1 and Student folder v3.3.0 at the same time and once Moodle first and Student folder afterwards) without problems.
Do you use a Database shared with other applictions/sites? Do you have other plugins installed, which may used the table name YOURMOODLEDBPREFIX + 'publications'?
Have you tried a complete new installation or have you upgraded from an older Moodle instance? Was mod_publication installed before?
What Database under which OS do you use? Have you tried looking for the mentioned table in the DB?
Cheers,
Philipp

Hi Jacques,
I'll take a look at it ASAP and gerne back to you before tomorrow evening!

Dear Jacques, thanks for reporting your problem. I just contacted our developer to look into this.

BTW, it's the 3.3 version I tried to install. We're using 3.3.1.

Hi, there.
I just tried to install Student Folder, and I got a DDL sql execution error. This caused our site to go down for a few minutes, and I had to delete the plugin folder from the server.
The first line of the error log says "× Debug info: Table 'mdl_29err_publication' already exists". This sounds like the plugin might already be installed, but it's not.
Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated, as this plugin is exactly what we need right now.
thanks.
Jacques

It is our policy that teachers are never able to alter student's submissions. The student can delete the files as long as the submission is still open.

How does the Admin or teacher delete an uploaded file? I mean, the teacher can unapprove a file. Thereafter it always appears in the Uploads listing with a red "X" over it. But an approved file is as good being deleted because it has no use. So rather than have lots of unapproved files clutter the Student Upload activity, not to mention the server hard disk space being used up by such files, could not those 'rejected' files be removed/deleted by the Teacher?

Hi Philipp. Thank for being responsive to my comments. I've followed your advice and I have posted 2 new issues at https://github.com/academic-moodle-cooperation/moodle-mod_publication/issues

Hi Frankie,
yup, currently we log a little bit too less information and we don't send messages at all in mod_publication. I'll mention both points in discussions for future features - alongside the filters. You can also put all your feature requests on our github page: https://github.com/academic-moodle-cooperation/moodle-mod_publication/issues
Cheers,
Philipp
