Hello fellow team-based learning faculty,
We are trying to get ipeer 2.0 setup on our local server but our IT person
is new to mySQL & PHP and he needs some help in getting ipeer installed and
setup. All the ipeer documentation is for older versions (before the mySQL &
PHP code rewrite) & the developer said there are no funds to provide
installation support at this time.
Have any of you gone thorough the install and setup process and are willing
to spend a bit of time working with our IT person? He is super sharp and
great to work with, just needs a bit of guidance. If you are willing please
email me directly the best contact info for you (both email and phone would
be helpful).
WebP (http://webpaos.lboro.ac.uk/) is another peer feedback program that was
recommended, but it doesn't seem to allow for written comments, which I
think can be very helpful for students to know what to do differently in the
future.
Thanks!!
-Lara

Hi,
I've contacted the developer to see if they can give me a hand with this
setup. The instructions is for version 1.0 and we are trying to setup 2.0
It require MySQL and PHP and that is where the problem for the install is.
I'll help you guys out by looking at it next week. I'm officially off next
week to deal with some personal issue, but I should have some time to take a
look at it. MySQL and PHP which is required for ipeer to work are new to me
on Windows so it is not a slam dunk because those setups are a bit
complicated.
Boon
