Does xwiki deal with "Edit Conflict"?
by Steve Z 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hi,all I tried xwiki and found it hadn't deal with "Edit Conflict" condition. It treats with "Edit Conflict" (concurrently edit same version record and save not concurrently) by saving as two different version simply, without notification for later save editor and without "Merge" assistant。 How about you think about ? maybe I was wrong? -- Best Regards!

Cannot find Import
by mjdenham 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

I originally installed xwiki version 0.9.840, which is still displayed as the version in the window. Now I am trying to upgrade to xwiki b2 but cannot find the Import tab. Do I need to upgrade anything. I thought it was automatic. Thanks Martin -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Cannot-find-Import-tf2959068.html#a8278056 Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Virtual wiki's and groupmembership (implemented on 0.9.840 due for upgrade to 1.0b2).
by Esbach, Brandon 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hi all, Me again, this time with another groups/permission issue. On my wiki's I use "$context.xWiki.groupService.listGroupsForUser($context.user, $context.context))" to get a list of groups a user is a member of. This has worked very well up until implementing a virtual wiki setup...since implementing a virtual wiki setup, I've found the listGroupsForUser only works for the main wiki (the one pointing to xwiki database), and not for the "other" wiki's hanging on the same server. The users are definitely regarded as being in the group as a permission check works for the group (eg if only group ABC has right EDIT for a space, the user is granted the right only if they are in the group). But, the listGroupsForUser always returns no groups, even for XWiki.Admin - even though every user has at least one group.

I'm trying to get xwiki setup and working. I am using tomcat5 and postgresql and (now) a 1.5 jdk.

Change xwiki menu
by Sebastien Cesbron 11 Jan '07

11 Jan '07

Hi, I would like to change my xwiki right side menu (the toolbar I guess) to the one at xwiki.org. Two questions : - I've tried to create some Toolbar pages in different spaces but this does not seems to change anything : is it always the way to go with xwiki 1.0-beta2 ? - Is there a way to grab the source code of the xwiki.org toolbar ? Thanx Seb

upgrade xwiki to 1.0b2 encounter "Could not initialize main XWiki context"
by xwiki xwiki 11 Jan '07

11 Jan '07

Hi, we were using xwiki 0.9.840, and recently I test to update with 1.0b2 with old database. as we are using postgresql as our db backend, I need to update xwiki with database migration (which I have seen 1.0b2 supports migration), I have modified the hibernate.cfg.xml to postgresql configuration. our system is: * gentoo 2006.1 * tomcat: 5.0.27-r6 * postgresql: postgresql-8.0.8 * jdbc: postgresql-8.0-315.jdbc3.jar after start tomcat, I connect to xwiki page and get following exception: exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Error number 3201 in 3: Exception while saving document XWiki.TagClass Wrapped Exception: Could not execute JDBC batch update org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processException(RequestProcessor.java:535) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(RequestProcessor.java:433) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:236) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:414) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) com.xpn.xwiki.web.SetCharacterEncodingFilter.doFilter(SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java:121) root cause com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Error number 3201 in 3: Exception while saving document XWiki.TagClass Wrapped Exception: Could not execute JDBC batch update com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.getMainXWiki(XWiki.java:223) com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.getXWiki(XWiki.java:303) com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiAction.execute(XWikiAction.java:96) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(RequestProcessor.java:431) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:236) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:414) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) com.xpn.xwiki.web.SetCharacterEncodingFilter.doFilter(SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java:121) i believe that there are people using postgresql, is that you have experienced same error? or it's not the problem with postgresql? any help to solve this problem? best regards, muzi

Permissions/Rights assignment
by Esbach, Brandon 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

In the old Xwiki rights screen (0.9.840 style), you could type in any text as a permission type (instead of view, edit, programming, etc), this means you could use dynamic permissions instead of group looping to determine different options for certain users. This means that you do not have to loop groups (or any other object) to restrict the options. In the new xwiki rights assignment panel there is no obvious possibility to add to the permissions list (they are a scroll list, I would assume they are based on a database entry). Any chance there is a way I can manually add to this list on my local wiki for the time being?
