Known issues: None at present Recent changes 29 Oct 2024 Updated core scripting engine from PHP7 to PHP8 Migrated from Cavendish server to UIS "IaaS" cloud server Raven login replaced by Microsoft Single Sign On (SSO) (change should not be noticed by users) Numerous minor bug fixes and enhancements It has been transferred to a new cloud server, and migrated to an in-maintenance version of the PHP scripting language. Unfortunately PHP8 is very fussy about language constructions that used to be standard, and this is generating lots of errors. We have been testing as much as possible over the last six weeks, but it is almost impossible to exercise every bit of the code base with the available resource, and I am sure many errors will remain. Fortunately most of them will crash the code rather than producing bad data. IF you come across an error, please email me directly (as below). The most important thing is to tell me as accurately as you can WHEN the error occurred, and as much as possible what you were trying to do when it did. If there is any useful information on the screen, then do send a screenshot as well. Rachael Padman, 29th October, 2024

Web access to the teaching databases in the Department of Physics

Both staff and students can use these pages to access the Department of Physics Teaching Information System (TiS).

In order to use this site, your browser must be set to allow session cookies.

Users who have already registered on the TiS can log in using your University identifier (CRSid), via the link at the top right of the page.

New Users

Students should automatically be registered on the system. However, if you have changed tripos then you may not be on our database. If you can't login, then please contact the Undergraduate Office who will then contact your college for the necessary information.

Staff and supervisors need to do three things:

• If you don't already have one, request a University identifier (previously called the CRSid) from the University Information Services.
• Again, if you don't already have it, get your password (see below).
• Once you have your login details, request a log-in for the teaching databases (you will be asked to sign into your University account first, so that we can validate your identifier and get any details from Lookup).

About your login credentials

Microsoft SSO is the University of Cambridge web authentication server, which seamlessly replaces Raven. To log in you will need your Raven/University password.  You can request a University account here. If you have a valid password and your login is rejected by the teaching system, please let the Undergraduate Office know your CRSID so that we can enable your account. If you have lost your password, or it doesn't work, then read this first.

Please note that the authentication service is operated by University Information Services (UIS), and not by the Department of Physics.
