Education Commons has received reports from members of the OISE community that UTORgrouper is currently unavailable. Instead of accessing the application, users encounter a blank screen that continuously refreshes or receive a notice stating, “An error occurred.”
The issue has been escalated to the central University of Toronto IT team, and we will notify the OISE community as soon as service is restored.

In Progress
All but two issues affecting the Quercus platform have now been resolved. The remaining known issues:
- Course Import Issue - When using the “Select Specific Content” option during a course import, leaving all items unchecked still results in all content being imported.
- Imported New Quizzes - When new quizzes are imported, they are always created as unpublished, regardless of the publication status in the source course.
