This is a strange one, connecting to my LRS the xAPI result page sometimes triggers a 500 error and sometimes not - they pretty much seem to alternate. The first one works fine and returns the expected results page.

xxx.xxx.x.x - [28/Jan/2021:13:52:31 +0000] "GET /xapi/statements?format=exact&activity=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.myexample.com%2Fxerte%2F9&verb=http%3A%2F%2Fadlnet.gov%2Fexpapi%2Fverbs%2Flaunched&related_activities=false&since=2021-01-14T00%3A00%3A00.000Z&limit=1000 HTTP/1.1"2004408"-""Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.16; rv:85.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/85.0""192.68.23.41"

This next one does not, note the // which is being flagged as a potential security breach.

What is causing exactly the same user action to sometimes include

xapi//statements

and sometimes

xapi/statements

tom Offline Administrator Posts: 1303 Thank you received: 326	Ok, endpoint is as expected. If you click on the launch graph does that work as well? What do you do in Xerte that causes the link with the double slash (that's waht I want to find out).

It works fine if I use Scorm Cloud as the LRS so I don't think it's the setup of my learning object. I don't do anything in Xerte to trigger the // it seems to alternate between the two.

(I can't include a link to GitHub because I have a new account) But I could be totally wrong! Sorry in advance if I send you down the wrong path.
