RE: [xwiki-users] adding custom struts action to existing xwiki struts configuration
by YEUNG, HOWARD (CONTRACTOR) 14 Sep '05

Ludovic, Thanks. That works. As it has pointed by by another user - /xwiki/bin/youraction/ without the document specification works too. -----Original Message----- From: Ludovic Dubost [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2005 5:14 AM To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] adding custom struts action to existing xwiki struts configuration Hi, The XWiki actions expect always a document name I think.. So the URL should be /xwiki/bin/youraction/Space/Doc If you want a different behaviour you will need to modify the XWikiRequestProcessor I'd like to find a more dynamic way for plugins to add their actions.. This probably needs some XWiki service that binds to the struts config Ludovic YEUNG, HOWARD (CONTRACTOR) wrote: > Hi there, > I wonder if it possible to add my own action classes.

PDF export broken
by Jeremy Ehrhardt 14 Sep '05

14 Sep '05

I have a fresh install of xwiki 0.9.840 using Tomcat 5.0 and MySQL 4.1, and PDF export isn't working. Looking at xwiki.log reveals pages and pages of exceptions, but the parts that look relevant are lines like these: 03:28:28,881 WARN TP-Processor1 RequestUtils:createActionForm:177 - No FormBeanConfig found under 'pdf' 03:28:32,332 WARN TP-Processor1 http://SERVERNAME.DOMAIN.TLD/xwiki/bin/pdf/Main/KnowledgeBase ViewEditAction:execute:242 - Uncaught exception: Error number 12003 in 12: XSL Transformation Failed Any idea what might be causing this? The only out of the ordinary conditions of this install that I can think of is that I've deleted the XWiki.Admin account and created other accounts for the administrators.

Classes and "Edit as HTML"
by kenk＠ucar.edu 14 Sep '05

14 Sep '05

Hi, Has anyone considered trying to force an "Edit as HTML" on the contents of particular fields of a class, such as the Content field of the blog's ArticleClass when #if($context.action="inline") on ArticleClassSheet is true? With something as simple as a javascript plus a sql query around the $doc.display("content", "edit", $obj) ? I see how it might not be possible considering "Edit as HTML" works on a whole page, so maybe just wishful thinking. I like the setup as is with being able to write wiki syntax into Content fields, but some of my users will prefer to use htmlarea in all cases. thx in adv, -ken

FYI: My next focus for documenation will be about "Managing User and Group Access Rights". This documentation will live in the AdminGuide. I will leverage off of the FAQ doc (which is all that exists as I can tell). If there is anything you can contribute to this topic, please submit comments to me or directly online in the AdminGuide. I hope to have something solid written by next Monday. Latest submission for review: How to Edit the Top Menu http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/+Editing+Top+Menu and also How to Create Flatlook Tabs with Highlighting http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Top+Menu+Example+with+Flatlo… ================================== Cody Burleson

New user to XWiki
by Ashraf Yassin 14 Sep '05

14 Sep '05

Hi everyone, first, a compliment for the developers of XWiki, it seems to be well done and very promissing. I just starting using XWiki. I created a wiki at XWiki.com and now downloaded it to first run it at my localhost then later at my server. I have a couple of short question. Please forgive me if they are obvious questins or if they have been posted and discussed already. 1. When I start XWiki at localhost, I seem to be logged in. I see "Hello Ashraf" on the upper right corner. There is not an Edit function under "More Actions" link though, so I can not edit or add pages. I registerd a new user, logged in with the new account but it is the same, cann't edit either. Why that? What should I change in order to be able to edit contents of pages? Note, I can edit pages if i am logged in as admin. 2. In the installation instructions, it says: * The default admin user is Admin with password admin. Is it possible to change those default values? 3. Surfing around in Xwiki, online as well as local, seems to be slow! is Java responsible for that? Why? I've seen other java-based wikis that are faster than this! 4. How can I remove users ? is it possible at all? Thanks a lot, Ashraf

adding custom struts action to existing xwiki struts configuration
by YEUNG, HOWARD (CONTRACTOR) 13 Sep '05

13 Sep '05

Hi there, I wonder if it possible to add my own action classes. The action class runs fine in its own context. Then action class is added to the WEB-INF/classes and the struts-config.xml is updated to reference the class. (Of course I re-started the Tomcat) However I get an "Invalid path was requested" error when I reference the action in the /xwiki/bin/ context. Also I wonder if this is doable in xwiki. The xwiki uses struts. But can people add their own custom action class to it. Thanks. Howard Yeung

Some further developments.
