After playing for while trying to create new virtual wikis in a 1.2 XWiki installation I can only conclude that something weird is happening here. As far as I remember, once you create a new database for a new virtual wiki, its schema is "automatically" updated. It seems that this doesn't happen here. Please, when must the schema be updated? The controller xwiki user has full rights on the new virtual wiki database. Thanks! -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your EPEC Network ICT Team

[xwiki-devs] [ANN] Skins now have their own build modules and JIRA projects

by Vincent Massol

Hi everyone, Just to let you know that I've finally implemented the separation of the skins from the web module that was planned a long time ago. See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2031 for details If you svn up you'll find a new xwiki-platform-skins/ directory. Also, the distribution now only includes the Albatross skin by default (see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2032 for details) I've also created one JIRA project for each skin so from now on please remember to use the Albatross jira project if you have issues regarding the albatross skin. If you find open issues in the platform that are for the Albatross skin don't hesitate to move them over too. Last, I've released the skin in version 1.0 as is so the current versions in trunk are now 1.1-SNAPSHOT for all. I'm currently finishing uploading them on ObjectWeb and modifying xwiki.org. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Howto-Request (+Donation)

by justanotheradress＠gmail.com

Hi all I'm just an Linux/Apace/MySQL/PostgreSQL guy (and no developer). I have no experience with Tomcat or whatsoever. Maybe I could indeed deploy the xwiki-installation but I'm not sure about that, so I'm asking for a step-by-step Howto (something like you can see on http://www.howtoforge.com ). Web(!)Server: Linux Debian 4 (console only) DB: MySQL Apache 2.2.x (mod_proxy must be used as mod_jk is obsolet as I saw it) Please with a Domain example. I would donate $50. Maybe there are other ppl who are interested in that and would donate too?? Anybody willing to lower the xwiki installation-barrier (no offend xwiki-guys :))? Cheers

[xwiki-devs] Fw: Re: [Issue] Commented: (XWIKI-2006) allows to configurate name of database schema [patch[

Good day, community. I think, some parts of JIRA comments (see below, especially after '***') must be discussed in mail list. ---------- Forwarded Message ----------- From: "rssh" <rssh(a)gradsoft.com.ua> To: "Thomas Mortagne (JIRA)" <jira(a)xwiki.org> Sent: Sun, 13 Jan 2008 18:45:56 +0300 Subject: Re: [Issue] Commented: (XWIKI-2006) allows to configurate name of database schema [patch[ > your code does not follow the xwiki coding rules to be applied > (mainly javadoc and some code style).

We could remove derby and hsqldb specifics conversions that A afraid, that if I understand what you try to say, this will be completely other story. Much bigger and harder (and I afraid in some cases impossible). Why -- because in XWiki getDatabase()/setDatabase() calls used in meaning get/set database and get/set application name. Now, when database name and wiki name become differ, to do this would be necessary review each call of get/set Database() in XWiki and XWikiContext, understand - what was means (application name or database name) and change. This would be more complex structure (where we will have logical database names) and (from my point of view) this complexity will not give any benefits. > would be useless if it can be setted in xwiki.cfg.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New free and community-managed farm on xwiki.org?

by Vincent Massol

Hi everyone, Some time back XWiki SAS, the company who started XWiki had a free online farm on xwiki.com. This farm was closed for new projects a few months ago after XWiki SAS realized it didn't have the manpower (or finance) to support it in a professional way. XWiki SAS still has a professional farm offering but it's not a free farm (see http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Services/#HHosting) . I'd like to discuss with you the idea of offering a free farm managed by the xwiki community and under the xwiki.org umbrella. In essence it means there would be 2 farms available: * a paying one which is on xwiki.com, for professional needs * a free one on xwiki.org for universities, individuals or anyone not requiring guaranteed support/availability at all times Here's how it would work: * No support guarantee. All support done on the xwiki.org user mailing list. * No stability guarantee. We would always install the latest Platform/ XE/XEM version on it and it would serve as a stability test for the xwiki development team. Obviously the community will always try to make it as stable as possible but that's not guaranteed. * There will be several members of the community who'll have admin access on the farm. * We will reduce admin tasks by offering a simple UI on the farm itself (restart, see memory stats, see blocking requests, ban a wiki, etc) * It will be open to anyone. However the target users will be technical people who can support themselves to some extent. We won't control that but it'll be mentioned on the registration page. XWiki SAS would pay for the machine, hosting and the initial installation. I have 2 questions for you: 1) As a user of it, would you be interested by such a farm? Do you think it's interesting for the xwiki project to have such a free farm? 2) As a community member, would you be willing to help administer it/ support it? For this farm to work we need to find several members of the xwiki community willing to help administer it. Here are the tasks I can think of: - work on the welcome page content for the farm - work on the FAQ for the farm (like "what do I do if I've lost my password", etc) - help answer user questions on the list (this can and should be be done by everyone) Thanks -Vincent, with 2 hats: community developer and CTO of XWiki SAS

[xwiki-devs] Status on XWiki rendering with Doxia

by Vincent Massol

Hi, As you know I've started exploring using Doxia for XWiki's rendering. I started writing a Doxia Sink (for generating XWiki wiki syntax source code) and a Doxia XWiki Parser. I'm implementing this in the Doxia project itself (in the sandbox for now till it's ready). You can see what I have committed so far here: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/trunk/doxia/doxia-module-xwik… You can also see the jira issue I've created to modify Doxia to fit our needs here: http://tinyurl.com/2wpeqg Status: * First xwiki sink version written * First xwiki parsing version written (not fully functional yet, not all syntax supported yet) * Next: Copy the link parser I have writte in xwiki's source code to Doxia's xwiki module * Next: Modify Doxia to implement http://tinyurl.com/2wpeqg * I've also started writing a wrapper around both Doxia/Wikimodel that I'd like to commit in xwiki (in a xwiki-rendering module for example) so that XWiki is independent from any rendering framework. To be honest I don't know if this is going to work fully but it seems the right thing to do for now. If someone is interested in writing the wikimodel implementation of it or help me work on it, let me know and I'll commit it. As you can see there are quite a few modifications that are required to be done in Doxia before we can have a functional XWiki Parser/Sink. Thanks -Vincent
