Hi,
I am interested in solving this Jira issue and I have been working on it.
Its about displaying a warning to user when creating a user with a user name
that already exists. Issue occurs when adding users from admin account.
Below are the given steps to generate it
Administration -> 'Users' -> Add New User -> Try creating user with same
user name -> Nothing happens (or warning)
Adding a user from register button displays warning and uses warnings
defined in registerinline.vm called from register.vm template.
I have started looking at the xwiki-core code, specifically
com.xpn.xwiki.web.
What I found is as follows when adding a user with same user name,
when creating a new user from RegisterAction class ->
xwiki.createUser(true,"edit",context) returns -3 indicating user already
exists. And when adding from Administration panel I found it calls a
template 'registeruser?ajax=1.vm' that is not in /templates folder. There
fore, can you suggest me some steps to display a warning to user, when
adding users from Administration panel. It uses Ajax to display 'add new
user' UI. Here I am not clear on what template is being called and what to
look for the next step. I have just stuck with this. I thought of sending a
mail, I would get some points to continue with.
Thank you,

Hi,
By having a quick look I noticed that when you go to the Administration
panel to add a new user the following happens:
* admin.vm template is loaded (notice the admin action in the URL)
* admin.vm includes XWiki.AdminSheet
* XWiki.AdminSheet includes XWiki.AdminUsersSheet (notice section=Users
in the URL)
* in XWiki.AdminUsersSheet a click listener is registered to the
addNewUser button
* when the addNewUser button is clicked the registeruser.vm template is
rendered in a light box
Hope this helps,
Marius

Of course there is a registeruser template in the /templates folder.
It's called registeruser.vm.
When a URL contains xpage=xyz, then the xyz.vm template is the one
producing the output.
A good tool you can use is the Firebug Firefox plugin, which allows to
monitor ajax requests.

Hi,
I noticed that when we click save button from with in the lightbox,
following code gets executed when it calls Util.parseTemplate() the
parameter for template parsed here is registeruser?ajax=1
if (content.equals("")) {
// get Error template "This template does not exist
content =
context.getWiki().parseTemplate("templatedoesnotexist.vm", context);
content = content.trim();
}
There fore, registeruser.vm is never called from lightbox when click 'Save'
as I noticed. I am not sure on the usage of ?ajax=1 infront of template
name. Can I get some explain on it.

I think this ?ajax=1 part is appended from lightbox's lbSaveSync:
function(url), called from lbSaveForm: function()
lbSaveSync: function(url) {
new Ajax.Request(url + "?ajax=1", {parameters: this.formData,
asynchronous: false});
}
But the usage of it is not clear for me. I mean '?ajax=1' part, I think
after that Utils.parseTemplate() use "registeruser?ajax=1" as template
parameter, not calling the template to display the warnings appropriately
defined in "registeruser" template.

This looks like a bug. Please open an issue on Jira for it.

I have changed "?ajax=1" in lightbox.js in two places to
"&ajax=1"
lbSave: function(url) {
this.lbSaveData();
new Ajax.Request(url + "&ajax=1", {parameters: this.formData,
onSuccess:
this.lbSaveDone.bind(this)});
},
lbSaveSync: function(url) {
new Ajax.Request(url + "&ajax=1", {parameters: this.formData,
asynchronous: false});
},
After this correct template is selected but it does not stop to display the
warning with in lightbox. The parsed template has the warning message in it.
But view does not stop to display the warnings.
