I was just fiddling with the form input styles in the fluid.css document, changing the background color to a lighter gray. The problem is my students, some as young as 9, can’t see their cursor in the fields when they are creating a new account so they think they aren’t able to input their name, etc. Even after changing the background color I find the cursor still won’t focus in the field you click on. Is this somehting that could be changed for better feedback?

Diva, as a test I was trying a merge of the Wifi module elements into a recent 0.7.1 dev master to see if I could work out how to do that. I apprecviate that some things may have changed and that the MySQL data base .dll is a later version, so it may not be smooth. If its going to require many changes, its probably best that I wait for a stable 0.7.1 release.

Maybe it would it be useful to add a brief note on how to merge the Diva Wifi module source code distribution elements into a recent/current reelase of OpenSim obtained from the OpenSim GIT repository for those trying to compile from sources? This is the procedure I adopted/assumed… is this correct?

To Use the Wifi module when compiling from other OpenSim Sources:

1. Obtain the OpenSim distribution you wish to use and unpack it to a build location.

2. Obtain the Diva distribution with Wifi source code repository from http://github.com/diva/diva-distribution/

3. Extract the following from the Diva distribution and place in the OpenmSim distribution you wish to use:

addon-modules/*
WifiPages

4. Build and compie as usual.

I ask as I get this message when I try a prebuild and compile…

Project “D:Tempopensim.sln” (1) is building “D:Tempaddon-modulesDataMySQLDiva.Data.MySQL.csproj” (50) on node 0 (default targets).

Thanks Diva. Noted. Besides the top level URL stopping working though it SEEMS as if everything else is working at present? maybe we just have not noticed lurking demons.

@Tobit: Are you using Wifi with the diva distribution or with some other setup?

@Ai Austin: Wifi only works with the version of OpenSim that it was released for. Since then, the current Git master has considerably changed such that the binary releases of Wifi (both the one that comes with the diva dist and the one for grid mode) are not any longer compatible with it. To make it work with the dev version of OpenSim you need to adjust the source code of the Wifi module and build your own binary.

It seems tio be just the top ebvel URL
http://virtual.aiai.ed.ac.uk:8002/wifi

The ones below al work fine like
http://virtual.aiai.ed.ac.uk:8002/wifi/splash.html

http://virtual.aiai.ed.ac.uk:8002/wifi/welcome.html
and the various functions like create accout and so on. maybe just an issue with teh top level URL in some way?

Diva, a-fter update to 0.7.1 dev r/14257, I am not sure if I have used Wifi interface since then, but I now notice that attempts to connect to the http://virtual.aiai.ed.ac.uk:8002/wifi URL gave an errror message in red on ROBUST console and here is the details from the log… pasted here in case you can spot a problem.

Yes, adding the home region has been on my TODO list for a while, but I haven’t had time to work on it yet. Patches welcome!

Diva… I wonder if you feel that it would be helpful to add in the ability to set a home location (region name, x,y,z) when an avatyar is created and to allow it to be vieweed and edited via the “edit account” facility. the default location to use might be something specified via a Wifi section configuration parameter, and if the “” null string it could be left unset.
