This plugin MUST be installed as a Repository Plugin.
The files MUST be saved in the following directory:

- Clone this repository
$ git clone https://github.com/DatabayAG/ILIAS_AdobeConnectPlugin
- Move the project to the ILIAS-plugin-directory
$ mv ILIAS_AdobeConnectPlugin <ILIAS_DIRECTORY>/Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/AdobeConnect
- Login to ILIAS with an administrator account (e.g. root)
- Select Plugins from the Administration main menu drop down.
- Search the AdobeConnect plugin in the list of plugin and choose Activate from the Actions drop down.
- Choose Configure from the Actions drop down and enter the required data.
- Please keep in mind that the Adobe Connect-Registration-Mode cannot be changed (only by direct database access) after it is selected once.
- An API connection by a proxy is currently not implemented.
- SWITCH AAI-Mode is not maintained anymore
- Authentication: Please ensure that the setting "Email-Adresse für Anmeldung verwenden" is disabled (Administration » Benutzer und Gruppen » Anmelde- und Kennwortrichtlinien).
- The creation of user folders is not possible (because of API limitations). The ILIAS plugins automatically disables the checkbox to activate the usage of folders if you choose the DFN mode.
- The authentication and mapping is done by the user's email address ( https://git.vc.dfn.de/lmsapi/doc/wikis/lms-user-create ). This can lead to authentication/user account mapping issues, if multiple ILIAS accounts use the same email address (which is possible in ILIAS).
- If a meeting is started once, changes concerning roles (moderator, etc.) have no effect on the running meeting (although the API acknowledges the permission change requests with a: OK, DONE)
