by Asiri Rathnayake 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

Hi All, We need your support to make FoXWiki a public extension at addons.mozilla.org. The new version of FoXWiki includes all the features of previous version plus support for webdav. All you need to do is to try out new FoXWiki and rate / review the extension. Steps : 1. You need to have an account at addons.mozilla.org (this is the ugly part) 2. login to addons.mozilla.org and install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2358 3. Test FoXWiki using our test server located @ http://91.121.237.216/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ (Refer to screenshots provided at the plugin's location) 4. Rate / Review the extension :) Please keep in mind that webdav support is not yet included in official XE releases. Let us know if you have any trouble. Thanks. - Asiri ps : Introduction to FoXWiki (old) : http://soal.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Code/FoXWiki

[xwiki-devs] Milton (webdav)
by Vincent Massol 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

This should interest Asiri: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=50906 " Milton is an open source java library for implementing desktop integration in your web apps with WEBDAV. For those not familiar with WEBDAV, its like FTP but implemented in HTTP. Its a mature standard and supported natively in all operating systems. Once integrated, your users can view and/or manipulate remote data in your application using drag and drop of files and folders in their native OS file browser - eg Windows Explorer, Nautilus, etc, over HTTP. Milton is agnostic of the nature of your data and can be used with any type of persistence mechanism, including hibernate, JPA, etc. Milton can be integrated easily into most web apps by implementing a Resource interface and a ResourceFactory, and adding the Milton servlet to web.xml. Milton allows you to specify which http methods to support (eg DELETE, PUT, MKCOL, etc). HTTP authentication and authorisation are delegated to your application logic. Milton is not bound to the Servlet API, so it can easily be integrated into alternative web servers. " Note: I'm not saying we should move to that. Just that we need to keep it in our radar and decide at some point if it's better or not better than the jackrabbit api we're using. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Hiding underlying documents behind management interfaces (was: Administration of Groups not valid since 1.6)

WDYT > ? The question is how much do we target advanced developers versus normal users/administrators. The link is there so that somebody that knows XWiki well can go to the document and edit the objects, or manipulate in other ways the document holding the group. I guess that if there's an interface powerful and stable enough to render raw object editing useless, we could completely hide this kind of documents, not just from the RMUI, but from all other applications. After all, an advanced dev can always manually enter the right URL manually and go on from there. WDYT? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] GWT WYSIWYG - Macro handling behavior
by Vincent Massol 22 Oct '08

22 Oct '08

Hi Marius and everyone, Here's an idea of a specification for macro handling in the new wysiwyg editor: * Macros are rendered when displayed in the editor * There's an outline so that the user can see what content corresponds to a macro * When the cursor is inside a macro the background color is changed * Clicking on Edit Macro to edit the selected macro * There's a background thread running that re-renders the page (and thus the macro) every N seconds. We need this since the macro content depends on other content (for example the TOC macro will depend on sections, the velocity macro will depend on values set in other velocity macros, etc). We should also have a way to let the user refresh the rendering manually. ** Note that since there are both inline and block macros we also need to refresh the rendering for that reason. For ex, if you put a velocity macro inside a list item and then you remove the list item the renderer result of the macro will be different (in the second case an extra paragraph will be added). * We should also have a button to switch between rendering macros and not rendering macros. For example when a page is including another page with some large content the user might want to disable macro rendering to focus only on the content of the current page. The default should be to render macros. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Porting xwiki-webdav to xwiki-core 1.7-SNAPSHOT
by Asiri Rathnayake 22 Oct '08

22 Oct '08

Hi, Currently xwiki-webdav is using xwiki-core 1.6-SNAPSHOT and it's working fine. But when it's changed to 1.7-SNAPSHOT (${pom.version}) I get the following exception : <dump> Caused by: com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Failed to load component [org.xwiki.cache.CacheManager] for hint [default] at com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.getMainXWiki(XWiki.java:326) at com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.getXWiki(XWiki.java:387) at com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.utils.XWikiDavResourceFactory.initXWikiContext(XWikiDavResourceFactory.java:169) at com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.utils.XWikiDavResourceFactory.createResource(XWikiDavResourceFactory.java:113) </dump> The exception is thrown when the XWikiContext is being initialized.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] XE 1.7 Roadmap
by Vincent Massol 21 Oct '08

21 Oct '08

Hi there, Today is XE 1.6 release date so let's start planning for XE 1.7. Here are the dates (to reach a release for Javapolis 2008): - 1.7M1: 20th of October (that's more than 3 weeks after the 1.6 release) - 1.7M2: 10th of November (3 weeks after 1.7M1) - 1.7RC1: 17 Nov (one week after) - 1.7RC2 or final: 24 Nov (one week after) - 1.7 final (if needed): 1st of December Thus it's a short release (2 months). Proposed content: * Working and usable (i.e. users can use them for their day to day work instead of the old Syntax and old WYSIWYG editor) versions of new rendering and new WYSIWYG editor. (Vincent, Thomas, Marius) * Working JCR (can be used for day to day work instead of Hibernate). (Artem) * French XE (Jean-Vincent) * Blog revamping (Sergiu) * Webdav integration (Asiri) And bug fixes of course. Anything else planned? (I think we should be careful not to over commit). I'd like to have Office import too (Wang Ning) but I don't know how much time he'll get. Thanks -Vincent Note: I've updated http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Roadmap

Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-users] LDAP Authentiction -- Errors on LDAP Server for not doing a clean Bind and UnBind.

Does anyone have any inputs on the issue below? Thanks. Sharan. sharanabasavaraj.x.mudgal(a)jpmchase.com Sent by: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org 10/16/2008 05:38 PM Please respond to XWiki Users <users(a)xwiki.org> To "XWiki Users" <users(a)xwiki.org> cc Subject [xwiki-users] LDAP Authentiction -- Errors on LDAP Server for not doing a clean Bind and UnBind. Hi! Thomas, There are errors we see on the ldap server on authenicating users with LDAP for XWiki. It is critical to fix this issue for us to be able to use xwiki. This is what seems to be happening. Normally when you do a 'DoBind' with a LDAP directory it establishes the connection after successful authentication. Once you establish the connection you may ask for information within the LDAP directory or simple logout with a 'DoUnbind'. Since you did not ask for any more information or issue a DoUnbind the LDAP directory tried to extend your session, which was eventually dropped. Also below is an example of a Bind with simple authentication and then an UnBind. we would like to see a 'DoUnbind' following a 'Dobind' when authenticating to the LDAP directory. Could you please advise. 10:48:27 B0EB7BB0 LDAP: New cleartext connection 0x8352b08 from x.x.x.x, monitor = 0x7ac4dbb0, index = 6 10:48:27 B32C0BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0044:0x60) DoBind on connection 0x8352b08 10:48:27 B32C0BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0044:0x60) Bind name:cn=abc,ou=xyz, version:3, authentication:simple 10:48:27 B32C0BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0044:0x60) Sending operation result 0:"":"" to connection 0x8352b08 10:48:27 B32C0BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0044:0x60) Operation 0x44:0x60 on connection 0x8352b08 completed in 0 seconds 10:48:27 7FBC5BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0045:0x77) DoExtended on connection 0x8352b08 10:48:27 7FBC5BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0045:0x77) DoExtended: Extension Request OID: 0.0.0.0 10:48:27 7FBC5BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0045:0x77) Unable to find extension handler 0.0.0.0 in extension list 10:48:27 7FBC5BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0045:0x77) Sending operation result 2:"":"Unrecognized extended operation" to connection 0x8352b08 10:48:27 7FBC5BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0045:0x77) Operation 0x45:0x77 on connection 0x8352b08 completed in 0 seconds Trace Example 'Successful Bind and UnBind' 14:06:54 B0AB6BB0 LDAP: New TLS connection 0x838b948 from x.x.x.x, monitor = 0x969a4bb0, index = 6 14:06:54 969A4BB0 LDAP: Monitor 0x969a4bb0 initiating TLS handshake on connection 0x838b948 14:06:54 89F1EBB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0000:0x00) DoTLSHandshake on connection 0x838b948 14:06:54 89F1EBB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0x0000:0x00) Completed TLS handshake on connection 0x838b948 14:06:54 4C1FFBB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0xca72:0x60) DoBind on connection 0x838b948 14:06:54 4C1FFBB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0xca72:0x60) Bind name:cn=abc,ou=xyz,, version:3, authentication:simple 14:06:54 4C1FFBB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0xca72:0x60) Sending operation result 0:"":"" to connection 0x838b948 14:06:54 4C1FFBB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0xca72:0x60) Operation 0xca72:0x60 on connection 0x838b948 completed in 0 seconds 14:06:54 8CB10BB0 LDAP: (x.x.x.x)(0xca73:0x42) DoUnbind on connection 0x838b948 14:06:54 8CB10BB0 LDAP: Connection 0x838b948 closed Thanks.
