I seem to have the same problem in my moodle courses. I'm a teacher and have no admin rights, so I don't know whether there have been any setup problems. The only thing I know is that some students have uploaded Word or open office documents and that those are supposedly converted into a pdf, as it says in a short message in the pdf-window along with a "working" symbol. But then the resulting document is empty.
I don't know the exact version of moodle we use, just that it has the new assignment grading interface.
Is there anything I can do with only teacher's rights, or do I have to talk to my admin? And what do I tell him?
