[xwiki-users] XWiki 1.8.2 : migration from 1.5, import default .xar not working
by jerem 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hi, I migrated the binaries from 1.5 to 1.8.2 (I'm on linux redhad / tomcat 5.5 / mysql 5). When importing default xar, most of the pages fail to be imported. Logs show these kind of messages : "ERROR packaging.Package - Failed to save document Stats.WebHome" In some cases, it fails on delete of existing pages. As I had many errors I removed the activity stream plugin temporarily. As it was too resource consuming, I also removed lucene to avoid full indexing at startup. Errors on import were the same with or without these plugins. I really don't know what I missed ... If anyone has a clue, thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] homepage in xwiki

Just an idea, maybe your wiki is not configured to be viewable by guest users, meaning xwiki will redirect to login page whenever a not logged in user try to view a page ? You might check the rights allowed to group XWikiAllGroup, in "Rights" under Administration pages, and the following options in same page : - Prevent unregistered users from viewing pages, regardless of the page or space rights - Prevent unregistered users from editing pages, regardless of the page or space rights -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/homepage-in-xwiki-tp2954111p3019299.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Velocity templates for skin
by Gerritjan Koekkoek 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hi, First: could you validate my understanding. When a document url is requested XWIKI will get the document from the database and start applying velocity-templates. It will look, according to skin-setting, down a "template path" and if a programmer did not put a "modified" template on the path it will end in the templates directory (xwiki/templates) A programmer can put a template on the path by putting a rightly-named *.vm file in a directory in skins directory (xwiki/skins/toucan or xwiki/skins/#####) (where ##### is the name of the skin) A programmer can also put a template as a object in a xwiki-page of class XWiki.XWikiSkins You create a TextArea with the same name as the original template, without the vm extension The mother(s) of all templates are view.vm, edit.vm, preview.vm and save.vm? xwiki will always only apply the first found template of a certain name, meaning if you put some script in header object in the xwiki page of your skin it will ignore the header.vm files on the file system? This would imply that you best first copy the orginal script into the text-area field and then make your changes? Would this practise not lead to missing out on features of newer xwiki versions, assuming that the template-scripts are also improved? Or is the programmer forced to, with each upgrade, examine his/her scripts against the scripts in the templates directory? What is best practise here? Second; If you put also graphical elements, CSS scripts in the XWiki.XWikiSkins page of your skin how does xwiki know if it is a velocity-script, a css or a graphical element? Gerritjan

[xwiki-users] How to display in inline mode, only an specific field from a class
by Heitor Mayer 03 Jun '09

I would like to know how to display only an specific field from a class in inline mode, obviously using the code in the class sheet related to that class. I would like to show only one field in inline mode because I need that embeddeb html editor that appears only in inline mode for text fields. The other fields can be showed in normal edit mode. Thank you so much Veja quais são os assuntos do momento no Yahoo! +Buscados http://br.maisbuscados.yahoo.com

[xwiki-users] Doubts using inline mode
by Heitor Mayer 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

First of all I would like to thanks anybody who has available time to answer my question. This is really important for me. My problem is described below : I have a class named Problem. It has a text field. When I have a page using the Template and the Class Sheet related to that Problem Class, I edit that specific page in inline mode, so I have access to put information in that specific "text field" using an embedded xwiki HTML editor, but the problem is that in inline mode I have so many buttons available, and I would like to have only my own button(and only that button) in order to save all typed data to avoid some confusion in the user's mind(with so many buttons). When I use a form in edit mode I can have only my own button to save the information in the form, but the problem than is that I have no access to that embedded xwiki html editor, so I can't put images etc... in the text field. Could anyone, please, give me a solution. Thank you so much. Veja quais são os assuntos do momento no Yahoo! +Buscados http://br.maisbuscados.yahoo.com

[xwiki-users] Anchors in 2.0
by Reto Hotz 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hi, On a page I have a html document attached and I link to that document: [[Some HTML Document>>attach:[email protected]]] This is working fine. But the attached html document is very large and contains a lot of anchors for easier navigation inside the document. So I'd like to improve the xwiki link to point directly to one of these anchors in the html attachment. I modified the link: [[Some HTML Document>>attach:[email protected]#someAnchor]] But unfortunately this is not working. The hash is always escaped. Is there a way to link directly to an anchor in an attached html document? Importing the html document in the wiki page is not an option, it has to be attached. We're using 1.8.3. Thanks. Reto

[xwiki-users] delete pages with unallowed characters in their names
by Sebastian Kannengiesser 01 Jun '09

Hi guys, is raw database hacking the only way to remove such pages? e.g. when looking at the orphaned pages tab in AllDocs, I find documents, generated through faulty code evaluation, such as .../SpaceName/<em class= , so to say, somehow the page was created with somje html stuff in its name. I've got lots of other examples. But when clicking on delete, XWiki tells me, that the page does not even exist yet. So, what can I do to delete it without hacking in the database itself. thanx for any suggestions Sebastian
