-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, another problem with Unicode: When I search for a text string containing eg. german "umlaute" (äü etc.), I get a velocity error (see below). There seems to be a problem passing the text entered in the search form to the search page. I tried searching for "äü" both on my and the xwiki.org installation. With my installation, the parameter "text" (given in the URL) is set to text=%C3%A4%C3%BC This is wrong. On xwiki.org it is: text=%E4%FC The velocity error (note the strange characters near the end): Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page Main.WebSearch Wrapped Exception: Invocation of method 'searchDocuments' in class com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki threw exception class com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException : Error number 3223 in 3: Exception while searching documents with sql where doc.web like '%Ã¤Ã¼%' or doc.name like '%Ã¤Ã¼%' or doc.content like '%Ã¤Ã¼%' order by doc.date desc Wrapped Exception: could not execute query Thanks, Michael - -- Michael Redinger Zentraler Informatikdienst (Central IT Services) Universitaet Innsbruck Technikerstrasse 13 Tel.: ++43 512 507 2335 6020 Innsbruck Fax.: ++43 512 507 2944 Austria Mail: Michael.Redinger(a)uibk.ac.at BB98 D2FE 0F2C 2658 3780 3CB1 0FD7 A9D9 65C2 C11D http://homepage.uibk.ac.at/~c102mr/mred-pubkey.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFE9FRkD9ep2WXCwR0RAojWAKDVJWBk5H2GLEEEbKw+0iX9JYRPggCg3S6l b//mS2GVrVGzth2YOSAzA74= =UbUJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Questions about the free hosted xwiki.

by Ryan Wood

Hello, I have been putting a lot of time into researching and testing wiki's to use for a work and document collaboration intranet for our non-profit organization that has highly non-technical users. After tested hosted wikis and installing about 4 different wikis (mediawiki, pmwiki, wikkawiki, etc) on our hosted web server (startlogic.com), and not being happy, I tried a xwiki.com wiki and I like the functunality and features. It does not seem possible to install xwiki on a hosted web server (correct me if I am wrong) , so I have some questions about the free xwiki I am currently using: 1. How much storage space does it offer per file and for the the whole wiki? What other limits are there to the free version? As an under-funded non-profit we are unable to afford a professional hosted version. 2. I am a big fan of hosted services (gmail, salesforce, writely, etc.) but xwiki.com is not quite that large and known of a service host. If we actually decide to built our intranet on xwiki.com, will we run into problems with downtime? How high are the risks of the servers being shut down and losing all critical data? 3. Currently we are without time or resources to setup our own server, but eventually may want to set up our own server to run it. Will it be possible to port our hosted xwiki onto our own server without losing data? Thank you so much for your help on this matter -- Ryan Wood www.absoluteontheweb.com

Rendering text from other documents' objects

by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI)

What's the proper way (if any) to get a piece of text rendered in the context of another document? One of my users has created aggregate pages that include fields of objects from other documents, rather like XWiki's blogging feature. However, when one of these object fields references attachments in their containing documents, these references (via the {image} macro) fail when rendered in the context of the aggregate document. I have tried replacing the direct reference to the field with $includedDoc.getRenderedContent($includedObject.text), and a few other tricks, like XWikiContext.setDoc with the XWikiDocument object of the objects' home document, without success. I can, of course, have him qualify the references to the attachments so that they are absolute (at least, relative to the wiki rather than to the referring document), but that's not nice. brain[sic]

Re: [xwiki-users] Style change on some xwiki.com wikis?

by Robin Fernandes

The problem seems to be that elements.css is no longer loading correctly: http://openmpt.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/skin/XWiki/MySkin/elements.css It is imported by xwiki.css : http://openmpt.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/skin/XWiki/MySkin/xwiki.css . This seems to be happening to at least one other wiki, which I believe is also on the "pro" system: http://eitc2006.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/skin/XWiki/MySkin/xwiki.css http://eitc2006.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/skin/XWiki/MySkin/elements.css Regards, Robin On 26/08/06, Robin Fernandes <robin(a)soal.org> wrote: > Hi, > > Maybe it's temporary, but it looks like there was a change to some of > the default styles on xwiki.com (at least on my wikis, which had been > moved to on the "pro" server).

xwiki automation

by Michael Redinger

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I am looking for ways to automate some important parts of the XWiki administration. We are using LDAP, so user provisioning is not a problem. We need to - - create groups - - manage the members of the groups (add, possibly delete) - - create spaces - - set the rights for a web (to a group or a user) I first thought that this was a job for XML-RPC, but the developers' page says that only the documents functions of the confluence RPC API are implemented (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/XWikiXMLRPC). So I think this means this has to be done in Java or Groovy (maybe using a wiki page and passing the user/group/space using parameters). However, at this point I am completely lost. How can this be done? I am not even sure about the steps necessary to achieve this ... Or can this done more easily? Maybe create group pages dynamically by querying an SQL server or something like that? I would be thankful for any directions - steps necessary, sample implementations, actually any kind of Java (or Groovy) script using the XWiki API.

Section Edits

by andrew_baptist＠adp.com

One of the listed features of the 0.9.1252 release was the ability to edit sections of a page rather than the whole page. I have upgraded my test server to this version (using the previous database) but do not see how to enable partial edits (or how to define a section). If someone is using this feature can you provide information on how to use it. Thank you Andrew Baptist

wysiwyg

by joe.greenawalt＠gmail.com

Hi, I recently installed XWiki Version 0.9.840, and when I go to edit, there is no wysiwyg option. Is this a setting i need to turn on, a module, or an installation problem? No really sure where to look to give more info, except i followed the following instructions (one note, there wasn't "xwiki.store.hibernate.updateschema=1" option in my xwiki.cfg file: Note � This install documentation is for most Linux installations, with Tomcat and MySQL standard downloads from the Apache and MySQL web sites.

"Clone" another documents objects when creating a new document

by Esbach, Brandon

Hi All, Is there any way to clone all objects in an existing document to a different document with one server request? So that a template document can be maintained with default object values; and can be brought in painlessly to a new document.

Problem with "save" action on objects (org.hibernate.StaleStateException)

by Xavier MOGHRABI

Dear all, I've recently migrate my XWiki installation to an other server after a hard drive crash. I've copied my XWiki installation as it was and upgrade from Tomcat 5.5.15 to Tomcat 5.5.17. Tomcat is able to start correctly however the behaviour of XWiki has been affected since I can't anymore use the "save" action on an object. For instance, if I reach the "Class Editor" page (XWiki.XWikiClasses) : - click on "PhotoAlbumClass" to create a new photo album - create a new photo Album called "Photos.MyAlbum" - I can see a form but if I enter a title and a description and then I save, I get a blank page without any object attached. - I have the following errors in my logs : 10:06:59,441 ERROR TP-Processor30 http://manage.objectweb.org/xwiki/bin/save/Photos/MyAlbum AbstractBatcher:doExecuteBatch:60 - Exception executing batch: org.hibernate.StaleStateException: Batch update returned unexpected row count from update: 0 actual row count: 0 expected: 1 at org.hibernate.jdbc.BatchingBatcher.checkRowCount(BatchingBatcher.java:92) ... 10:06:59,442 ERROR TP-Processor30 http://manage.objectweb.org/xwiki/bin/save/Photos/MyAlbum AbstractFlushingEventListener:performExecutions:277 - Could not synchronize database state with session org.hibernate.StaleStateException: Batch update returned unexpected row count from update: 0 actual row count: 0 expected: 1 ... Does somebody know what is wrong is my configuration ? -- Xavier MOGHRABI - Consortium ObjectWeb Jabber: moghrabi(a)jabber.objectweb.org - Phone: +33 4 76 61 52 35
