Error when exporting for LMS use
Mar 10, 2014

I have recently received numerous errors when trying to export for the LMS. I'm able to export the course and zip it right in Articulate. Then, I'm required to change one small detail in the code of the SCORMFunctions.js file. I have done this for several courses in the past and had no issues at all.
I re-zip the extracted folder, and upload it into the LMS (Saba). For some reason, I now constantly get this error:
I'm not moving anything when extractig and re-zipping the file either. I've also had very slow zip and extract times (way slower than normal). Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Amy and welcome to Heroes!
It may be helpful to sharing what type of change you're making to the published output files as that error message seems to be indicating that something is off in one of your XML files.
Sure! Once I get the zipped file on my desktop, I extract the files. Then, I open the SCORMFunctions.js file in Dreamweaver. I remove the word 'suspend' from the 2nd line of code.
It should look like this:
var SCORM_SUSPEND = "SUSPEND";
to the following instead:
var SCORM_SUSPEND = "";
Then, I save this file, and re-zip the folder back up. This code change allows us to track time spent for reporting purposes in our LMS. When I try and load the zipped folder to the LMS, then, I get the XML error.
Thanks Amy for sharing here - and although editing the published output is not something I can support, I hope that someone else in the community can offer assistance!
