Need Spell Checker Path For Moodle DB

[his]

Hi!

I'm configuring Moodle for a client that will be handling teacher/student testing on their site and have tons of quizzes. I need for the database web editor to include the spell checker. When I put this path /usr/bin/aspell it said that the path was not good. Any iidea what the correct path should be? Thanks soooo much!

Hi Marie,

That's the correct path for aspell on the server you're on, and should work:

# whereis aspell
aspell: /usr/bin/aspell /usr/lib/aspell /usr/include/aspell /usr/share/aspell

# ls -l /usr/bin/aspell
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 85840 Dec 22 2004 /usr/bin/aspell*


# /usr/bin/aspell

Aspell .33.7.1 alpha. Copyright 2000 by Kevin Atkinson.

Usage: aspell [options] <command>

<command> is one of:
-?|help display this help message
-c|check <file> to check a file
-a|pipe "ispell -a" compatibility mode
-l|list produce a list of misspelled words from standard input
[dump] config dumps the current configuration to stdout
soundslike returns the soundslike equivalent for each word entered
filter passes standard input through filters
-v|version prints a version line
dump|create|merge master|personal|repl [word list]
dumps, creates or merges a master, personal, or replacement word list.
