Session transcript saving

December 3rd, 2007 by Michael Bachers

The latest round of server upgrades introduced a new bug that several of you have let us know about. During sessions, transcripts are now re-saved every minute. The goal is to make sure students and tutors have access to session transcripts, even if the session ends abnormally. However, a bug in the code is causing new files to be created in the digital locker every minute of the session, rather than updating the same file.

The fix is in the works and should be in place later tonight. Once the issue has been addressed your digital locker will be cleaned up and you should only see a single copy of saved transcripts for each session. As always, thanks for your patience and don’t hesitate to notify us of any further problems.

    UPDATE: The changes have been made on the server. For all sessions from this point on, you should only see one session transcript in your digital locker, and that transcript should be updated each minute you’re in the session.
