Error exporting to LMS for delivery via Tracker.NET (SCORM 1.2)

Mar 21, 2012

I am new to Articulate so please forgive my naivite.  I am trying to export my first Articulate project as SCORM 1.2 so I can distribute it via Tracker.NET.  I did the export.  When I preview via the index.html I get a string of errors refering to AICC something or other.  I moved the Lesson to a Web Server and get this error string:

Howdy Peter,

This is my first attempt to get an Articulate Presenter compiled course into the LMS.  Does it have to be launched via the LMS?

Our sites deliver eLearning via Platte Canyon's Tracker.NET, a web-based LMS.  We upload DHTML Lessons created with SumTotal ToolBook 10.5/11 almost every day.  The launch file is "index.html". 

Before the lesson is added to the LMS it is tested just through IE by launchng it via indx.html.  If there are no issues then the folder goes to the content server and students get access via their LMS log in.
