The final option is to apply the "real" fix yourself but you can only do this if you have Java/J2EE programmers available in your department. These instructions are only for someone familiar with Java/J2EE.

If you don't understand the instructions then DO NOT TRY IT! You try this at your own risk! You could seriously break LAMS if you get it wrong.

* Shutdown LAMS / JBOSS
* Change to the directory [jboss]/server/default/deploy/lams.ear.
* Copy lams-tool-lanb11.war to somewhere else as a backup.
* Open up lams-tool-lanb11.war and find the file learnerContent.jsp.
* At around line 61, change
      <html:hidden property="method" value="Finish"/>
  To
      <input type="hidden" name="method" value="<fmt:message key="button.finish" />">
* Rezip up the lams-tool-lanb11.war so that it is an archive again (and not an expanded directory).
* Start LAMS / JBOSS and see if this fixes it.

With any luck, you should have a functional noticeboard. If you don't, you can always shutdown LAMS / JBOSS and copy the backed up lams-tool-lanb11.war to the lams.ear directory.

You must turn lams-tool-lanb11.war back into an archive, rather than leaving it expanded, or the next update that we put out to LAMS will fail when it tries to overwrite the lams-tool-lanb11.war file.
