Stable branch
by Pavel 11 Jun '07

11 Jun '07

Vincent et all, Now that xwiki is 1.0, are there any plans to have a bugfixing-only branch? 1.1M1 anouncement mentions both bugfixes and new features/changes. While the former is good for stability, the latter may not be so. For me as a person who will need to support xwiki installation it is an important question. Thanks, Pavel

Hello! Can anyone give me a short advice, how a private wiki with token needs to be configured? There is a headline in documentation telling that this option exists, but beside this I haven't found any information...

[1.1Milestone1] Importing a large .xar file
by BOUSQUET Jeremie 08 Jun '07

08 Jun '07

Hello, I'm trying to migrate from xwiki 1.0 to 1.1.milestone 1 engine using the export/import feature. I'm configured to use a MySQL database on both sides. My exported .xar file is about 60Mo. I managed to go through following errors: - limit of 10Mo from XWiki as attachment size - limit of 1Mo as packet max size for MySQL Now I'm getting the following error while trying to attach the Backup.xar file in my new wiki instance: "java.sql.BatchUpdateException: Data truncation: Data truncated for column 'XWA_CONTENT' at row 1" Any ideas ? The .xar file do not get correctly attached after this. Best regards, Jérémie

Doubt regarding search
by roopesh＠digitalglue.in 08 Jun '07

08 Jun '07

Hi, Can I search based on a field in the structured content. Say for example, there are multiple structured documents which has User Details like Name, Age, Address, Date of birth, Company Address, Description etc. Can I do a search for all the users in a particular company i.e., a search taking into consideration Company Address field only. Let me describe it : if a user "roopesh" has Company Address field as "digital glue", then a search for digital glue should return roopesh. But if a user "roopesh" has Company Address field as "cdac" and Description field has a word "digital glue", then the search for digital glue should not return roopesh). Is this possible in xwiki? (Please tell me if my query needs more explanation). Regards Roopesh

AW: [xwiki-users] .xar file for UserGuide available?
by Klapf Hanspeter 08 Jun '07

08 Jun '07

Well, I don't know... Of course, having dead links in the help isn't nice, but would this behavior be different in pdf? An xar would give anyone the possibility to extend the existing content, but I don't know if anyone would do this. Because of its own space, I wouldn't mind "messing up" my installation - a later removal would be possible too. I can work with either options. Choose the one you think more people would use or the one which is less work. Thanks, Hanspeter -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Vincent Massol [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Freitag, 08.

I'd like to better understand this. IMO a XAR is less usable because: 1) it requires you to install it in your wiki and you usually don't want to have a xwiki user guide in your own wiki as your wiki is not about xwiki (usually :)) 2) it's harder because you need to navigate/open other windows because you'll be working on one page while you'll need to check the user guide at the same time 3) Beware that the user guide has external links to other parts of xwiki.org which will lead to non-existing page when we export it (like links to the Code Zone for example). OTOH, having a XAR is nice if you want to provide a user guide on, your own wiki for your users. Only issue is that it'll be a generic user guide and not a user guide adapted to your own usage of XWiki. WDYT?

Thanks for your fast reply!! I think a pdf-version would be better for print, while working on my instance I'd prefer an xar. The CodeZone-Application for download gave me this idea.

(You won't have to import it in your wiki and mess it up). We have added support for exporting several pages of a xwiki site to PDF in XWiki 1.1M1 (but no UI yet) so I guess we could try this on xwiki.org and see how it works. WDYT?

Hello, for some Environments (e.g. my Notebook) an local installation of the UserGuide-Space on xwiki.org would be helpful. Is a .xar file available to import the documents in my own xwiki-instance? Thanks, Hanspeter

[xwiki-users] Backup - Database and configs.- again
by Alain M. 07 Jun '07

07 Jun '07

Please help, I spent a few more hours today looking for this information, I even found http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Backup which apparently is not for version xwiki-1.1-milestone-1 I am reasonably fluent in Linux, not in java and not in xwiki at all ;-) ---last message--- I am running xwiki standalone on linux. Please tell me where are the files (or directories) that I need to save to have a full backup. Both database and configs. I searched xwiki, but could not find that information. Please note: I need the files or directories for *automated backup*, not a nanual procedure, which I found easely enough... Thanks, Alain PS: I just dicovered Xwiki and I am very impressed by it. Thank you to all that contributed to it :)

ETA for XWiki 1.1, JIRA 1079 - LDAP?
by Brian J. Sayatovic 06 Jun '07

06 Jun '07

We're deploying XWiki 1.0 at work for internal use. We've set up the LDAP integration to point to our Active Directory, but the existing integration isn't as tight as we'd like. Authentication is handled, but users must be explicitly created in XWiki, along with their details and group membership management coming from XWiki. I saw bug 1079 in JIRA addresses this. I think I saw this being included in XWiki 1.1 milestone 2: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1079 Is there a project timeline for XWiki? In lieu of that, has anyone tried the code attached to 1079 in an Active Directory integration? Regards, Brian.
