[xwiki-users] Need help for migration path from XWiki enterprise to XWiki enterprise Manager
by Nicolas Frank 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hello, We are currently using XWiki enterprise 1.7.2. I would like to upgrade to the last version (1.9.3) but as we have set up several instances, I would like to take avantage of XWiki enterprise manager, but I could not find information about the good migration path. Should I create a new instance of XWiki enterprise manager 1.7.3 or can I just upgrade one of the instance of XWiki enterprise to XWiki manager ? How then should I proceed with the other instance (need to upgrade each instance before doing anything, then how to merge to the manager instance ?) ? Thank's for your help.

Another question, we've been trying to change the pdf export layout: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HCustomiz… Created the Class, and a new pdf export definition. Now changing the style works but when we try to change xhtmlxsl or fopxsl nothing happens. Is this a know bug or is there somthing one should know .... Second question: Is this a way to create a own export definition for another format e.g latex Thanks hel. ----- ----- Helmut Lehner hel(a)hel.at -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Customizing-export-tp2213930p2213930.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

yes you can vote on the default one, or even can propose another. But the default version should be basic. This week I won't have time to focus more on Color Themes, because we need to polish the skin, but would be great to see other proposals for predefined themes.

[xwiki-users] DNS mapping
by Trevor 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

In setting up our wiki farm, we'd like to do this: http://www.oursite.com/xwiki = the XEM manager http://wiki.oursite.com/xwiki = internal wiki http://client1.oursite.com/xwiki = Client 1's wiki http://client2.oursite.com/xwiki = Client 2's wiki How do we go about doing this? I've got the wikis themselves set up and responding properly using my HOSTS file (mapping each of those to the same IP), but how is it done in a "production" environment (for both internal and external clients)? We don't have our own DNS server, we rely on the ISP. Are these subdomains? Or different hosts of the "oursite.com" domain? Yes, I've searched for answers and have read about DNS and subdomains, etc. but it's just not sinking in. Anyone have a good link for reference? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Trevor

[xwiki-users] Configuring XWiki as ROOT webapp
by Trevor 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

I've been trying to get XWiki installed as the ROOT webapp so I can access it with localhost:8080 instead of localhost:8080/xwiki (referencing http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ShortURLs) I had XWiki working properly first, following the original instructions (expanding the WAR to /usr/share/tomcat5.5/webapps/xwiki). Then I renamed xwiki to ROOT I created a ROOT.xml file in /usr/share/tomcat5.5//conf/Catalina/localhost as follows: <Context path="/" docBase="/usr/share/tomcat5.5/webapps/ROOT" debug="0" privileged="false" allowLinking="true"> </Context> and restarted Tomcat. Now when I go to localhost:8080 I get "Connection Interrupted The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." and get redirected to http://127.0.0.1:9080/xwiki/bin/Main/ThisWikiDoesNotExist Am I missing something? Thanks, Trevor

[xwiki-users] Exclude Admin from statistics
by Dilipkumar Jadhav 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hello friends, Is there a modification we could make to the most active contributor so that Admin is excluded from the results. The Admin does make a lot of changes & creates quite a few pages which are XWiki internal pages/test pages. These pages are never seen by the general user. Also, we would like to recognize those general users who contribute the most to Wiki. However, Admin & other power users show up at the top of the most active contributors list. The number of pages attributed to Admin are way too high (since XWiki default xar file that we install during fresh installation has almost all the pages attributed to Admin). This kind of gives skewed results. I looked through the api so that I could find a method call which would help me do this. I am unable to find anything that came close to these requirements. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

by clay 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

I'm a newbie. I searched the web for using this query: xwiki "user type" advanced simple and it didn't turn up anything to help me understand what those user types are. Could someone please clue me in and maybe tell me whether a different search would've turned up anything? Thanks!

[xwiki-users] simple email set up
by clay 23 Aug '09

23 Aug '09

I needed to set up an email address. I was really dismayed that it wasn't just a "change my account settings" type task. Are there any plans, or is there a way, to make specifying an email address a more end-user friendly task? Thanks!
