LimeSurvey version
4.2.3
LimeSurvey build
200511

Every time my PHP program reaches this line:

$sSessionKey= $myJSONRPCClient->get_session_key( LS_USER, LS_PASSWORD );


I get:

Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Incorrect response id (request id: 1, response id: )

in jsonRPCClient.php on line 158


I've tried presenting the password in every way I can think of... as plain text, as the encoded value I find in the lime_users table on the database, etc.

define( 'LS_USER', 'admin' );

define( 'LS_PASSWORD', ' ' );


Any suggestions?

You have plugins maybe ?

Else : can you update your config.php file to create a log file and set debug at 2 ?
manual.limesurvey.org/Optional_settings#Logging_settings

(maybe there are an issue in 4.X)

I've not installed any plugins. I set 'debug'=>2 in application/config/config.php file. I didn't uncomment this line:
// 'runtimePath'=>'/var/limesurvey/runtime/'
Do I need to somehow "restart" the LimeSurvey application after modifying config.php?
My PHP program addLSparticipant.PHP still returns exactly the same error message.
I don't know where to look for LimeSurvey application error logs. I can see access logs to my website with POST requests to /limesurvey/index.php/admin/remotecontrol following GET requests to my /limesurvey/admin/addLSparticipant.php file

Hint: The file is saved by default to limesurvey/tmp/runtime/application.log, which is located in the LimeSurvey root folder.

I give you hint to get the error …

Since it's hard to see exact error with remote control i give you an advice to have error …

My limesurvey/tmp/runtime directory contains only cache, HTML, and twig_cache directories, and a file index.html
I don't see an "application.log" file there , or in /limesurvey/application/logs folder

Did you update your config file with

Does it matter that my config.php file is located in limesurvey/config ?
I don't see a limesurvey/application/config folder
Possibly LimeSurvey is not processing my config.php file?
How can I tell if it is?

No, the log part must be inside component , it clearly inside the comment in manual …

bin.shnoulle.net/?29c3310f57a972a2#3A5jt...sXLgGphBoo3LwHASo4qz

OK, I have the 'log' section within 'components'. I still don't see an application.log file.
Please confirm locations in which I should have config.php and should see application.log appear.

I am still getting an exception thrown by jsonRPCClient.php on line 158... an "Uncaught Exception" said to be the result of "Incorrect response id (request id: 1, response id: )"

Then, no error from LimeSurvey ???

Did you activate the remote control ?

Now something I did has totally broken LimeSurvey. I can't even get the admin screen to come up with my browser directed to:
debrota.com/limesurvey/index.php

Attached is the text in this file.

Also attached is text in:
debrota.com/limesurvey/config/internal.php

I don't recall trying to change either of these files from defaults.

my config.php file in limesurvey/config folder looks basically like the one you sent to me, only with my host and database credentials in it.

When I try to connect to LimeSurvey, I get an error from line 179 of index.php
