Sorry for my delay in responding. I've been unwell.
Akhilesh: I'm not sure what version you are using. The requirement for city and country was removed a few versions ago. If you are seeing an error, please report it on tracker.moodle.org and provide more details about the error.
Graham: It may be that the file permissions on the overview.php file are not set correctly. Others have reported that previously.
Jinxing Chen: I don't have plans of adding Equella support myself as I don't have access to an Equella server, but if you do add an entry for it in the lib.php file, please share it with me so I can add it to the distributed version. I suspect it will be a log lookup, similar to other resources.
Modestos: I found a problem with a recent change in older versions of Moodle. I suspect it was what was causing your problem. It relates to CONTRIB-5953. I'll push up a new version with a fix shortly. I suggest you upgrade your version of Moodle as well.
I tried to upgrade the plugin to the latest version 2015111200 but I get blank screens with no error messages on the debug log. This happen to all courses with active block.
My current version is 2013121800 running on 2.3.1+
Is there something I am missing.
Regards,
Modestos
Our Uni start using Equella as main repository, therefor most of resources will be under Equella (mod_equella) resource module.
Had try upgrade the progress bar block to the latest version, but seems can NOT recognize/monitored Equella resource. And same as Turnitin 2 (mod_turnitintooltwo) which I've comment before?
What's the best method to make Progress bar block CAN recognize these two modules? Or have you got any plan to upgrade it on the next version?
Cheers.
"Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request."
This is on a course with 11 enrolled students. The error message doesn't give much info, but there don't appear to be any other problems with the site. Any suggestions to fix this or diagnose it further ?
thanks
Category enrolled students are not coming in overview. only students enrolled in particular courses of that category are coming in overview. Please help.
Un paramétro necesario (city) faltaba
Thanks for your advice, I have checked blocks/progress/lib.php, for block_progress_monitorable_modules function, return array has one item for turnitin
'turnitintool' => array(
'defaultTime' => 'defaultdtdue',
'actions' => array(
'submitted' => "SELECT id
FROM {turnitintool_submissions}
WHERE turnitintoolid = :eventid
AND userid = :userid
AND submission_score IS NOT NULL"
),
'defaultAction' => 'submitted'
From the above array item, it was for Turnitin Assignment 1 (turnitintool), not for Turnitin Assignment 2 (turnitintooltwo).
Looking for DB, turnitintooltwo related some tables: mdl_turnitintooltwo, mdl_turnitintooltwo_courses, mdl_turnitintooltwo_parts, mdl_turnitintooltwo_peermarks, mdl_turnitintooltwo_ submissions, mdl_turnitintooltwo_users.

If you could find out what tables that module access, you might be able to come up with an entry for it. Look at what is in the blocks/prorgress/lib.php file for the 'turnitintool' plugin for a similar entry. You might want to update to the latest version of Progress Bar before doing that.

Sorry didn't provide much useful information before. The Plugin is Turnitin Assignment 2 (mod_turnitintooltwo), and currently we are using version 2015040104.
This plugin also required other two plugins, block_turnitin (version 2014012407) and plagiarism_turnitin (version 2015040104).
By the way, we are using this version 2015051500 for progress block.

Unfortunately, TurnItIn have about six different plugins. I'm not sure what one you're using. There is support for one of these in the Progress Bar and it looks like it's not yours. If you, or someone technically minded at your institution/organisation, can determine the queries needed to read from the appropriate tables for your version of the plugin, please share them with me so I can introduce them to the distributed version. Unfortunately you can't get a copy of the plugins without paying.

It's more difficult than you might think to distinguish users who are teachers or students. A person can be both in the same course, for example.
Regardless, people who set up the Progress Bar want to see what it looks like for users, so removing it would not be useful to them. Is there a problem with seeing the Progress Bar when you are not a student?
A simple workaround is to minimise the block for yourself. That doesn't affect the view of the block for others.

I don't know if this is just an issue in the local installation (in French) of the Progress Bar or more in general, but I'm asking the question anyway. As a teacher, I get the same progress bar as my students, urging me to do the things my students are supposed to do. I see no setting in the configurations of the bar that would allow me to limit the display of the progress bar or components of it to students only, so how do I limit progress (and completion also, by the way) to students only?

I don't think you can upgrade a plugin using the installation interface. Manually copy the "progress" folder from the zip into your "blocks" folder to overwrite the old version, then go to the Notifications page and the block will upgrade.
