Users who have attempted to create a VIUBlog site recently may notice that their site has not been created correctly and they will not be able to navigate, create, or customize their newly created site.

To prevent further broken sites from being created we have disabled site creation. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working with IT staff to solve the underlying issue.

If you need support with VIULearn, VIUTube, VIUBlogs or Zoom, please contact the Centre for Innovation and Excellence in Learning at learnsupport@viu.ca or call us at 250-740-6179. We are open 9:00 am – 4:00 pm, Monday-Friday, except days of university closure. You can also find help resources at https://ciel.viu.ca.

The old VIUTube platform (viuvidoes.viu.ca) is no longer in service. If you encounter any linked or embedded media that is displaying an error or pointing to the old site, please email CIEL at learnsupport@viu.ca with the URL of where that media is shared and a brief description so we can assist with updating that media.

When using VIUTube’s Browser Capture application, users will get a Processing Failed error message after their browser capture videos have been uploaded to VIUTube.

We do not currently have an estimated time of resolution, but technicians are working on finding and resolving the underlying issue. Thank you for your patience.

In the meantime, please do not delete any videos that have failed to process.

If you need to record a browser capture video while this issue is ongoing, please Download your browser capture video rather then clicking the Upload button. Once the video file has downloaded to your device, please upload the file to your VIUTube media library using the standard uploading process.

If you have questions, please contact learnsupport@viu.ca or call us at 250-740-6179.

Hotmail is currently blocking Assignment Submission email confirmations and other email notifications sent from learnsupport@d2l.viu.ca as Hotmail believes these email notifications are spam. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We are currently working with our vendor to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

In the meantime, if users have an alternative email address and domain that they would like to receive notifications to instead, they can edit their notification preferences by clicking their Profile Icon in the upper right hand corner and navigating to the Notifications preference screen.

More information about editing and changing your email and notification preferences can be found on our website here: https://ciel.viu.ca/pages/account-settings-and-notifications

Users can also view any notifications that they have received by logging into VIULearn and clicking the Notification Bell at the top of the screen.

We are pleased to report that all systems are currently stable.
