We have a unique issue where only 1 of our users (System Admin role) is getting an error when trying to 'View all submissions' on a course. Tried multiple other users and this action works as expected. Permissions for mod/assign look identical for this user as other users who do not get the error. Any thoughts?


Url - /mod/assign/view.php?id=9641&action=grading

(when clicking the view all submissions button below)

The next page throws the below error for them. (Note - also on this page where the error is thrown, all CSS / theme / images etc are gone)


Debug info:

Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: Improper use of the assignment class. Cannot load the grade item.
 
Debug info:
Error code: codingerror
 
Stack trace:
line 1438 of /mod/assign/locallib.php: coding_exception thrown
line 265 of /mod/assign/gradingtable.php: call to assign->get_grade_item()
line 4135 of /mod/assign/locallib.php: call to assign_grading_table->__construct()
line 4214 of /mod/assign/locallib.php: call to assign->view_grading_table()
line 589 of /mod/assign/locallib.php: call to assign->view_grading_page()
line 55 of /mod/assign/view.php: call to assign->view()



This appears to be the code that is throwing the error, i'm just not sure why for this user it's not able to create this grade item?

public function get_grade_item() {

if ($this->gradeitem) {

return $this->gradeitem;

}

$instance = $this->get_instance();

$params = array('itemtype' => 'mod',

'itemmodule' => 'assign',

'iteminstance' => $instance->id,

'courseid' => $instance->course,

'itemnumber' => 0);

$this->gradeitem = grade_item::fetch($params);

if (!$this->gradeitem) {

throw new coding_exception('Improper use of the assignment class. ' .

'Cannot load the grade item.');

}

return $this->gradeitem;

}

Hi John,


I would check that debugging is disabled in the config file or in developer settings(/admin/settings.php?section=debugging). there is a setting to turn on debugging for specific users in the config check that $CFG->debugusers = '2,5'; where 2 or 5 is the id of debug users. I had a similar message on our system after I updated the site to version 18 and I was troubleshooting some other issues. Other than the message, uploading submissions and grading them worked fine.

Appreciate the response! Unfortunately, debugging is set to None and there are no additional debug settings turned on in the config.php file.
