Hi, I have several term that should point to the same Wiki page. How to do this? 1) create redirect page 2) add synonyms to the main page? How to do one thing or another?

Scratchpad for howto on xwiki.org
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (ATTSI) 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

Vincent, Sergiu, and the whole community: My conversation begun by Gunther Leeb has continued offline and I've agreed to help him implement a solution similar to one I've created, which will probably be generally useful. Ironically enough, we seem to have validated the old adage of the cobbler's children going barefoot - we're working on a feature of a Wiki, and though we have a community of interested users and developers and access to a Wiki, we began by still using a one-to-one email exchange. In repentance thereof, I wish to nail down a page or three on xwiki.org to simultaneously develop, publish, and offer for comment the work we are doing. Where would be the best place to put this? The topic is enhancing the LDAP authentication service implementation in the ways that Gunter needs, which would add a feature to discriminate on values in the LDAP-supplied user information. brain[sic]

Case insensitive search
by Zeljko Trogrlic 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

Hi, I noticed that XWiki does case sensitive search, e.g. if I search for "available", available will be found, but not "Available." How can I make searches case insensitive? Speaking of searching, it not clear to me what happens if I turn on Lucene. Does this replace searching back-end for regular search box, or I have to add new page for searching? Regards, v Zeljko

Internet explorer and WYSIWYG
by Esbach, Brandon 27 Mar '07

27 Mar '07

Hi All, I've been getting some strange results with WYSiWYG since Beta1, but have never been able to reliably test it. Effectively, here's the problems as reported from users (bear in mind these were appearing as random until this morning). Before logging the issue, I thought I'd check if anyone else has had it (and maybe could be some config problem): * User creates a news item (standard xwiki news page) using wysiwyg. Adding some color to certain words to highlight actions, etc. * Save item. * User (same or other) views the item, all is fine. * User edits the item, and two issues arise immediately * First, all text is changed to match a random (usually first) color chosen for any word in the text. * Second, a large chunk of the data is missing. This only happens with Internet Explorer 6. Firefox 2.0 and 1.5 do not exhibit the problem.

Stylesheet viewed on login with restricted access
by Julien Oix 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

Hi everyone, I'm tryin' to deploy a private xwiki, so XwikiGuests can't see/edit any wiki's pages. So I have to give specific pages access rights to login/register ... pages Unfortunately, I cant' manage to view these pages as a xwikiguest with the associated stylesheet :) I've seen this previous post : http://mail-archive.objectweb.org/xwiki-users/2005-07/msg00045.html But it's pretty old ... What I tried to do is to give a view access to xwikiguest on http://myserver/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/DefaultSkin, which is the skin I use by default. But it doesn't seem to fit. Thanks ! -- Julien Oix UFR d'Informatique - Université Paris Diderot Bureau 5C01 (5ème étage) 175 rue du Chevaleret 75013 PARIS Tel : +33 (0) 144 278 504 Mobile : +33 (0) 664 392 207 --------------------------------------------- http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html

LDAP -or- internal user management
by Gunter Leeb 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

Hi, Using XWiki 1.0B3. After switching to using LDAP (using our eDirectory), the current user access management behavior that I am seeing is, that 1. I can login with a user/pwd authenticated against LDAP/eDirectory. If the user does not already exist in XWiki, the user appears to be created. 2. A user, created in XWiki CANNOT Login anymore, if he/she is not an LDAP user. (Why is that?) 3. The old passwords do not work anymore for users with a matching entry in XWiki and LDAP. (ok) Why can't I add user per hand if I use LDAP? This would at least allow some Workaround for some other limitations and give the administrator a way to allow users that for some reasons do not get an entry in the LDAP. Can I hope for XWiki 1.0 to include the handling of an LDAP group for authentication? I have read a blog mentioning LDAP group support being planned for 1.0. Is this still the case? Regards, GLeeb xwiki.authentication.ldap=1 xwiki.authentication.ldap.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.LDAPAuthServiceImpl xwiki.authentication.ldap.server=dsmaster xwiki.authentication.ldap.check_level=1 xwiki.authentication.ldap.port=389 xwiki.authentication.ldap.base_DN=department=USER,department=INFORMATIK,department=1230,o=MP xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN=cn={0},department=USER,department=INFORMATIK,department=1230,o=MP xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_pass={1} xwiki.authentication.ldap.UID_attr=uid (I have posted this issue before but now I have split up the issues to allow separate answers.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Diese E-Mail enthaelt vertrauliche und/oder rechtlich geschuetzte Informationen.

Message resources
by Pavel 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

Greetings, There is a number of ApplicationResources_xx.properties in XWiki and it looks like all of them are different (contain different set of keys). Both ApplicationResources.properties and ApplicationResources_en.properties are in english and are mostly identical except for ~70 missing keys in _en file. Given that, I have two questions: 1. What is the "most supported" message resources file? 2. Are all messages from .properties used in XWiki, or some are redundant? If the latter, are there plans for removal of unnecessary keys for 1.0release? -- Best regards, Pavel
