Known Issues

1. Survey code message appears always for survey evaluation access of anonymized surveys and survey evaluation access is denied

For anonymized surveys a survey access code input field is shown always when a user - even the administrator - wants to start the survey evaluation. The access to the survey evaluation is then denied, if user did not take part in the survey and enters his/her survey access code. This happens with all "Evaluation access" settings in the survey properties.

To fix this bug, make a backup copy of the file survey/classes/class.ilSurveyEvaluationGUI.php, then copy the attached file class.ilSurveyEvaluationGUI.php into the survey/classes/ directory.

2. Adding groups or roles as participants to online exams causes a script error

When you try to add an existing group or role as participants to an online exam, a script error occurs and the groups or roles are not added to the online exam. To fix this bug, make a backup copy of the file assessment/templates/default/tpl.il_as_tst_invite.html, then copy the attached file tpl.il_as_tst_invite.html into the assessment/templates/default/ directory.
