Absolutely, you should upgrade to the Educational version of Google Apps.
Here is the link to do so:

hi,

thank you for responding. I have the standard version of google apps and and it seems it doesn't have some of the features that the moodle-google integration instructions-settings call for in the advanced tools of google apps..

I did all the things that you have suggested in your email such as ftp-ing the moodle-google integration files in the moodle directory of the host(ed) server.
I wonder if I can upgrade to the educational g-apps.

thank you again!

Alex

The www is redundant. You shouldn't ever need it.

If you have Moodle running on your server, all information is in that
database.

You will have to install the Moodle-Google integrations plugin in the moodle
folder. If you have FTP access, you should be able to do it just fine. Just
follow the instructions on the read me file in the Moodle-Google zip file
for installing in the Moodle directory. Let me know if you have any other
questions.

my google apps is hosted at hostmonster and they have a script Moodle 1.9.7. Would I install the script at http://www.epikinonia.org or http://epikinonia.org. What's the difference?

Another question is 'create a new database? I would assume yes

Do I still have to install the Moodle-Google intergrations plug in someplace or at epikinonia.org? How do I go about installing it there?

thank you!!

I followed this guide but the connection from moodle to gmail doesnt work. If i turn on full debugging i get this.

[message:protected] => Could not find private key file [C:\MoodleInstaller19\server\moodle/auth/gsaml/C:\MoodleInstaller19\server/moodledata/samlkeys/rsaprivkey.pem] which is needed to sign the authentication response

As you can see i use windows for this installation, the strange thing is that the sync to google works, i have pushed users from moodle to google, but the gmail function is dead.

I can’t sort it out, i have copied the certs to both locations mentioned above.

Anyone have any thoughts of this?

Thanks for your howto. It is still the best. At the moment, December 2009, there will be a more new software package from November 16th 2009. It can be downloaded directly from MoodleRooms.

Another thing: Google Apps Education has since 2009 no “Partner Start Page” available. So there is a small mistake in the Google-Block. I have just deleted the line in the code, so everything is now ok.
