LDAP Authorization
by igor_ti＠yahoo.com.br 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

Hi people, I am using XWiki with LDAP authentication, and its fine, but I can't figure out how to make the authorization process. Inside xwik.cfg I have a key (xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping) where I make the ldap mapping for xwiki, so I map xwiki "name" for my ldap return key and so one, what I need to know is what's the xwiki key that I have to map my ldap role field? Or I need to use something else to configure Roles? If someone has the link for the doc that explains it, please send me. Please if anyone don't understand my question, tell me, I will try to express myself better :-) Regards, Igor Regis

Composite documents, section edit.
by roopesh＠digitalglue.in 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

Hi I am new to xwiki. I am facing a problem with composite documents. I have created 3 classes and its classsheets with a textarea in each class (classes A, B, C) and I included all the three objects in another class D's template and included the forms . Now if I edit any documents of D class then I am able to change the whole document (the part of A, B, C). But I want to do enable section edit the part of A, B, C separately. (One doubt : Is this the correct way of creating composite document?) How can I do this? (Here I am creating documents of type D and thus I am able to edit a document class D. To edit the section of classsheet B there should be a document present in B, I guess. In my case the document will only be in class D.) Can anyone please guide me the exact way to do this. Thanks, Roopesh

Excluding pages from WebRss
by Paul Armstrong 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

So I opened http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1018 with a patch that allowed for excluding pages from the RSS feed in a manner similar to Panels.Navigation (i.e. edit the WebRssCode page to remove pages and spaces). Vincent came back with: """ Thanks Paul. I looked at the patch and I have one issue with it: what about users who want to see those pages/spaces? For example, I rely on my RSS feed to verify xwiki.org every day and I want to see if someone tags/modifies one of those pages. Also I think most if not all admins will want to see them. I'd rather we have a more generic solution. Some ideas: * A RSS wizard that lets users pick what they want to see * Possibly also some special tag (like "norss") that removes pages * tagged with it from the RSS feed At the very least I think we should modify the patch to let admins have a RSS feed of all files. """ Now the wizard idea is pretty much covered by http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Code/PersonalRSSFeedApplication and I think the norss tag idea has some merit but a way still needs to be made to block out entire spaces (for example XWiki). I tried adding "$hasadmin" to the code as that seems like the simplest way to solve the site admins wanting to see all edits but that just broke the feed (anyone who's more awake able to debug it?). Another option would be to provide a third feed (but this is starting to seem excessive to me): * Blogs * Pages without the admin pages * All pages What do others think? Paul

I used the 1.0-beta-6 WAR and changed the hibernate config file ---- I don't believe a lack of a db connection would cause this error?? The Error: The requested resource (/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome) is not available.

Can xwiki run on Window2003server with IIS 6.0?
by Brian Carpenter 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

With intermediate tech skills, I have loaded mediawiki on w2k3 with IIS(WIMP). Also exteneded Mediawiki to use Oblix Single sign-on authentication. One year later, very few in out fortune 500 intranet use it due wiki markup (not wysiwyg editting) and inability to enforce group privacy. Create artcles that can only be viewed by few, then later viewed anonymously. Can I accomplish task with similar skill level on same w2k3/IIS box? <this email duplicates first attempt through nabble that never made it to the maillist archive>

Hi Vincent, thanks for your answer. I found the patch you mentioned and I made the most as described. What is about the java-files? I do not now much about, but where I have to save them? And do I have to compile them? Maybe someone can tell me, which pages I can import without errors? Because before I try to import, the most works fine!

Problems with import XAR File

Dear all, I installed Tomcat 5.5.23 and the XWIKI 1.0. beta 6 in Oracle 10g on WinXP. Now I want to import some pages, so I downloaded the XAR File.

Hello instead of XWikiPreferences
by Gunter Leeb 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

Hi, I have now a reproducable issue around the "XWikiPreferences" page. This issue is around for all beta releases so far (seen with B4,B5 and B6). On a fresh install, if you chage to dodo skin in xwiki.cfg and then try to go to the /xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences page you just get a "Hello". This is bad especially when you want to import or export something. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install B6 2. run, test 3. change xwiki.cfg to dodo & restart 4. change skin to MySkin 5. go to http://.../xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug with dodo that slipped through?
