Update with XMLRPC
by diaga＠nomade.fr 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hi, I was testing the exchange of data with Xwiki using XMLRPC and I had a strange behaviour. When trying to update a page by adding some content, I had to relogging to view the change, this normal I think. But when I remove the content of the page and I put a new one, I have to reboot my Web Server. It's a strange behaviour for me. So is the problem coming from me ( environment: Apache Tomcat, database Mysql, Xwiki 1.0 ) or is this the normal behaviour? If you have any idea, thank you for your suggestion. Bye

Email shortage of 16/17th July 2007 - Please resend
by Vincent Massol 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hi everyone, ObjectWeb (our infrastructure) is not answering as to whether we will recover the mails lost on the 16th and 17th. I have asked OW Admins at least 3 times for the past 6 days and they said they're working on it (but they haven't told us whether it'll be possible or not to recover them). Thus we cannot wait any longer as there were important mails sent during that period. I'm going to resend my emails and I advise everyone to do the same. We're really sorry about this. I'm following this up on OW's side. Please note that the emails sent this week end have also not made it to the list yet. Let's hope they're not lost too. Thanks and again please accept our apologies for all these emails issues we're suffering from the past 3 months. We're working on finding a solution real soon so that it doesn't happen again in the future. -Vincent Massol XWiki Release Manager

[xwiki-users] How to remove properties from a class ?
by Dan Murphy 22 Jul '07

22 Jul '07

Hi, Is it possible to remove properties from a user defined class (I can't see it in the UI) ? Undeterred I tried to use the info at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/DatabaseSchema I tried : select * from xwikiclasses this returned no rows, which seems to imply no user defined classes select * from xwikiclassesprop where WXP_NAME like 'myprop%' did show the property I added to the class delete from xwikiclassesprop where WXP_NAME like 'myprop%' unfortunatly didn't seem to remove the myprop from my class (the class editor showed it) Incidently I edited the db before starting the server (to avoid possible caching issues). So, short of deleting and recreating my class... does anyone know how to remove unwanted properties from a class ? Many thanks in advance, Dan PS. Would others find this a useful feature ?

Virtual wiki
by diaga＠nomade.fr 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hi, I was trying to create two virtual wikis but this is not working. I used apache and the hosts file of windows to make virtual hosts pointing on the xwiki controller. I have no DNS, I am working on local. In the near futur, I will have an pûbmlic IP adresse and no DNS or subdomain. I am a little confuse. If someone can help because I am really lost. Thanks a lot, bye

[xwiki-users] Better User Profile Editing?
by BSayatovic＠amig.com 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I'd like to encourage users my my XWiki installation to meep useful information about themselves in their profile, and then have other link to them when referring to them by name in other topics, e.g. "A decision was made by [Brian Sayatovic|XWiki.bsayatovic]" to keep useful information in user profiles..." However, all we can edit is the description. While you can put wiki syntax in that texbox, it is a very small box to work within (I end up copying & pasting from a text editor) and you don't have the wysiwig editor. Is there a way around this, or should I enter this as an enhancement request? Regards, Brian. P.S.

Silly question about user documents
by Erin Schnabel 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I am wondering.. Is there any reason why ALL user documents have to be in the XWiki space? Wouldn't it make more sense to have an XWikiUser space, and perhaps an XWikiGroup space? For those of us with large installs already, it would be a pain to move.. but it doesn't seem to me that auth code checking for users should care much about what space the user document is in (aside from authorization/access, I suppose, as that is based on the space), but still, I think separating user and group documents out into their own spaces would make navigation of the xwiki space easier... thoughts? -- Waste of a good apple. --Samwise Gamgee

Blog breadcrumbs
by rene.dupre＠pobox.com 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi, After I create a blog entry using Create New Blog Post (let's say I named it crumbTest) and then view the entry, the navigational breadcrumb shows as Blog:Administration>crumbTest. I would have expected it to just say Blog:crumbTest. Where does the Administration come from? Is this the way it was intended to work? My guess is the parent determines the breadcrumb - which is XWiki.Webhome. I'd like to have the navigational crumbs be consistent with what space the user is in. I've looked at the templates/classes for the blog but I can't figure out where the parent gets set when the blog entry is created. I also tried creating a blog entry from the Blog.WebHome using the Add an Article button -and the resulting document was stored in the Main space (rather than Blog) and its breadcrumb showed Main:Administration>crumbTest2. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks! Rene
