Hi, I installed XWiki standalone on windows. I went in using Admin/admin then entered my own personal details. Now I can�t log in using either Admin or my account details, it always says Wrong User Name. So I uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem. Strangely after the reinstall the welcome message and other characteristics of the virgin installation don�t come back. Is something left in the registry? Any tips please? TIA John

Showing an icon for an attachment file.
by Lee Meador 25 Jul '07

25 Jul '07

I found something like this on the xWiki web site but it doesn't quite work. This is what I put on the page. #set($attachment=$doc.getAttachment("MyFile.doc")) #mimetypeimg($attachment.getMimeType().toLowerCase() $attachment.getFilename().toLowerCase()) "MyFile.doc" is an attached MS Word document. (Attached to that page.) The funny thing about it is that when the page displays it shows the ICON followed by some extra stuff that looks like this: doc?" title="doc?<http://10.57.38.187:8080/xwiki/bin/edit/WARS/doc?parent=WARS.2005&editor=wy…> "/> The problem seems to lie in the html where the code generated by the Velocity stuff above looks like this: <img src="/xwiki/skins/albatross/mimetypes/word.png" alt="<a class="wikicreatelink" href="/xwiki/bin/edit/WARS/doc?parent= WARS.2005&editor=wysiwyg">doc<spanclass ="wikicreatelinkqm">?</a>" title="<a class="wikicreatelink" href= "/xwiki/bin/edit/WARS/doc?parent=WARS.2005&editor=wysiwyg">doc?</a>" /> I first looked at xWiki last Thursday so I don't know much about what's going on. But that looks to me like some sort of text substitution is taking place where the contents of the "alt" is expanded into something containing a double-quote that ends the "alt" before its time. That makes the funny stuff display when it should only create an "alt" message for the image. The class "wikicreatelink" makes me suspicious as well. So ... am I doing something wrong in the Velocity code above when I try to create the interesting icon on the page? Or ... is something in the xwiki application messing it up? (And, if so, is there some workaround.) Thanks. -- -- Lee Meador

Issue on hosted wiki

The folliwing error occurs when saving custom article documents; I can't seem to find the problem (probably something daft). Anyone ever seen this, or could suggest where to start looking? ==== Error number 3201 in 3: Exception while saving document Daiwa.Title Wrapped Exception: Row was updated or deleted by another

RE: [xwiki-users] Virtual wiki

Hi Tim, Thank you for your answer. I was afraid that the only solution is using DNS. But at least, I am sure now that this is the only solution. Bye Diaga, I had the same problem and the way I solved it, and only way I know, is having a DNS. Look into the archive for the advice I recieved. Also, make sure you granted the rights for both databases on your relational database.

Can't adjust Page Layout in Panel Wizard
by justin_robbins＠cotyinc.com 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

Hello everyone, I tried to use the Panel Wizard to change the Page Layout from the default setting of "Right Column" to "Left Column". When I clicked "Save the new layout" I received a prompt "The layout has been saved properly". However, a stack trace was written to the console. I am now left with no side columns at all. What am I doing wrong? Here's the message that is now written to the console when I navigate to the Panel Wizard page. 16:22:30,727 ERROR P1-18 http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/PanelWizard?forceLeftPanels=1&f… SimpleLog4JLogSystem:logVelocityMessage:154 - Left side ($first) of '==' operation has null value.

Hi, I installed XWiki standalone on windows. I went in using Admin/admin then entered my own personal details. Now I can't log in using either Admin or my account details, it always says Wrong User Name. So I uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem.

Security problems
by bjquinn 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Ok so I'm using xwiki 1.0 standalone. Setup is pretty simple. I just unzipped the files and ran the start_xwiki.sh and opened it up in my browser. I haven't made any modifications (except changing the port number to 80 in the startup script). My problem is that a lot of the security related options don't seem to work. For example, when I create a new group, it doesn't always show up under http://192.168.1.27/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiGroups and if I try to recreate that group it says it already exists. Also, when adding a user to a group by clicking the little + button to add a new line for a new user (on http://192.168.1.27/xwiki/bin/inline/XWiki/GroupName) the link goes to http://192.168.1.27xwiki/bin/objectadd/XWiki/GroupName?classname=XWiki.XWik… Notice that there's no "/" in between the IP address and "xwiki", so of course the "page cannot be displayed". If I fix the link myself in the address bar and add the missing "/" then the page allowing me to add a user comes up correctly. If I change the startup script to go back to port 8080 (default), then the link is http://192.168.1.27:8080/bin/objectadd/XWiki/GroupName?classname=XWiki.XWik…. Of course, now there's a "/" but "/xwiki" is missing and I still get a "page cannot be displayed". My other problem is that once I do get a user and/or group created and I want to set permissions on a particular "space" (i.e. I do or don't want it to show up altogether for different users), I can deny all the permissions available on the administration "space rights" tab, but the space is still visible on the right hand side, it's just that it returns the user an error if they don't have rights. So I figured I might be able to hide the space altogether and saw the "space prefs" tab and thought that might be useful. Of course the link for this tab is http://192.168.1.27xwiki/bin/objectadd/SpaceName/WebPreferences?classname=X…. Notice the lack of "/" in between the IP address and "xwiki" again at the beginning of the link. Of course I can't bring that page up either. I'm using a completely default xwiki 1.0 standalone version downloaded from xwiki.org on Fedora 7. Apache is not running, just xwiki (tomcat, I guess). It seems rather bizarre that I'd have so many problems with something I didn't change at all, except for the port number. Of course, changing the port number back just mangles the above mentioned links differently. It doesn't fix the problem. Seems like I'm missing something pretty fundamental here. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? -BJ Quinn -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Security-problems-tf4119184.html#a11714695 Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

logging to file?

Hi everyone, This is my first post to this mailing list. Sorry in advance if this is a noob question. I have installed xwiki-enterprise-1.1-milestone-3 on a Windows XP machine. For now, I'm using the default HSQL database and Jetty web server. I start XWiki by running "start_xwiki.bat". This opens a command window. It appears the system out is logged directly to the command window. As I navigate around in the XWiki application I see multiple stack traces in the command window. How can I send the log to a file instead of the command window? If I were to post here for help with a problem it would probably be helpful if I could include the errors that are being logged. Thanks in advance for the help. I'm looking forward to evaluating XWiki and possibly using it in our organization. Regards, Justin Robbins
