[xwiki-users] Fwd: Fwd: Re: Fwd: Migrated Xwiki to latest 'stable' release - Login user pic is now covering the first letter in title

Ok last mail from me tonight!


Everything seems to work!!! :-)


I was using 3.3 XAR file so found the 3.1 file and used that then only 
needed to deselect:


Main.WebHome
Xwiki.Admin
Xwiki.DefaultSkin
Xwiki.XwikiPreferences
Xwiki.WebPreferences
Xwiki.XwikiAdminGroup
Xwiki.XwikiAllGroup


Now all seems fine..... just need to upgrade to 3.3 and that's it I'll 
be on the latest Xwiki.


Just a quick question - The Global Admin panel used to be iconified.... 
(pics on it) now I have many links with a few pics (icons) at the 
bottom.... is this correct??


Regards,


Kaya

Hi,

I've gone step by step to perform the upgrade and hosed the issue many 
times :-)


The biggest problem I kept running into was that the skin modifications 
I made kept going funny.

After carefully peeking through each option I managed to figure out to 
deselect these:

Main.WebHome
Panels.Spaces
Panels.Quicklinks
Panels.MyRecentModifications
Xwiki.Admin
Xwiki.DefaultSkin
Xwiki.XwikiPreferences
Xwiki.XwikiSkins
Xwiki.XwikiSkinSheet
Xwiki.SkinTemplate
Xwiki.WebPreferences
Xwiki.XwikiAdminGroup
Xwiki.XwikiAllGroup


However, now when I go into Administration - Global I get an error:

Failed to execute the [velocity] macro


???

I will restart Postgres and Tomcat in the mean time but something else 
might be up........


Regards,


Kaya

Hi Marius,

I attempted one upgrade which got botched as the skin and logo went
loopy - didn't come up! Seems default color scheme came up instead.

I then tried again unchecking:

Panels
Main
Xwiki

 From the root checkboxes rather then individual sub elements and my
wiki is fine....

Somehow I feel that I have half done the upgrade!

I know I added some panels giving them new names and also altered the
contents of MenuCLA. I couldn't see these things under the Panels
section though.

I found it under Xwiki ->  XwikiPreferences as you said.... I think I
confused the syntax :-)


XWiki.XWikiPreferences meaning Xwiki heading followed by XwikiPrefs sub
item.


Apologies I'm GUI retarded ;-P


I think I need to go through each individual element of my wiki and see
which has been updated and compare the element to the .xar.....

Kaya
