Team: I have completed a high-level summary of the XWiki DB Schema which can be found at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/XWiki+Database+Schema In our efforts to dramatically improve developer documentation on XWiki, one of our goals is to ensure that the documentation is both accurate and up-to-date. It would therefor be beneficial if someone could take the time to cross-check the document for errors and correct them or notify me of necessary changes. Thanks! ================================== Cody Burleson

RSS feeds for private wikis
by Vincent Massol 26 Aug '05

26 Aug '05

Hi there, It would be nice for xwiki to offer a solution for providing RSS feeds for private wikis. One solution that I've seen used is to generate a unique RSS feed URL per registered user. Here's a security note I've found on a site that does this: " Don't share RSS and iCal links Anyone with the URL to these links can see your posts (via RSS) or milestones (via iCal), so be careful who you share them with (and don't post them on public web-based newsreaders or aggregators such as Bloglines). Also, don't share these links within the company. Each person should login and subscribe to their own personal feed. Should someone else get ahold of your private RSS/iCal URL, just change your password ("Contacts" tab) and a new URL will be generated (you'll need to resubscribe - the old URLs will be invalid. The details: The RSS and iCal links use a unique token in the URL as their only form of authentication. That means anyone with the full address will be able to subscribe to the feeds without logging in. Therefore, you should take care to keep these URLs hidden. " Here are the format of the feed URL on that site: http://learning.something.com/projects/174559/feed/recent_items_rss?token=f4 546fdb83e37546546ghgfddg4&client_id=139454 I think this is a nice solution. WDYT? -Vincent

That worked...thanks! Can you explain to me why it worked? Also, what is the appropriate way to clean up (i.e. remove) unwanted users?

Unable to register new users
by jhammonds＠purina.com 26 Aug '05

We have been running XWIKI for a couple of weeks now, and all had been running great. Earlier today, a new user registered for the site, having no problems. I added him to a group to enable him to edit content on the site. A little later, another new user attempted to register for the site, and he was unable to register. I looked in the Tomcat logs directory and found no errors. I also bounced the servlet and ultimately rebooted the box to see if something like that was the source of the problem. Nothing has enabled us to register new users. Each time we attempt to register a new user, I get the same response, "An error occured during the registration process. Please contact the support?", and the user is not registered. Trying to narrow down the problem, I started a separate instance of the servlet against the same MySQL database and encountered the same problem. When I ran the servlet against a test copy of the base xwiki mysql database, the problem is not found. This leads me to believe that the problem is within the database itself. Again, there are no errors within the tomcat logs directory log files. Any other suggestions? Thanks, Johnnie

Re: [xwiki-users] Need Aggregate PDF's with TOC
by Ludovic Dubost 25 Aug '05

25 Aug '05

Hi Stephen, Aggregated PDF is clearly something XWiki can do.. Table of Content it can do it too thanks to Jiri ! But it's true that it's currently not possible to handle page numbering and adding the numbers to the table of content.. Now this is a really powerful and interesting feature.. I'm highly interested in how this could be done and learning about existing tools that can do it.. If cocoon can do it, it could be possible to write a wrapper around the cocoon feature that does it as long as cocoon can accept the XHTML of XWiki. Maybe it's not that complex and FOP or PDF can give us some help in this area with some easy markup.. Any pointers about existing tools that do it would help me check how this could be put in XWiki. I'm adding the developers list because developers could have some ideas ! Ludovic Stephen Schaub wrote: > I am attempting to use Xwiki as a CMS for software development project > documentation.

I noticed your "Development Environment" page, and am very interested in your section on "Building with Eclipse". We have been able to build the project in IntelliJ, but not Eclipse; so, we welcome any advice.
