[xwiki-users] Export a PDF using a template
by Wilson Leão Neto 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

Hello all, I've being working with XWiki and I'm stalled on the following issue. I've being assigned to work on a pdf generation with some already defined templates. I took a look at the tutorial: A - http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HCustomiz… And studied something about the rendering module: http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Modules/RenderingModule I've followed the steps in A, created the Class and the Page, to which I attached the previously created Class. Then I tried to generate the pdf using: http://wiki.atech.com.br:8086/xwiki/bin/export/Main/p?format=pdf&pdfcover=0… Where XWiki.templateForm002 is the template page I've just created. It just doesn't work... What am I doing wrong? Has anyone experienced something similar? Best regards, Wilson

[xwiki-users] Link to wiki page in LiveTable
by Frantisek Kall 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

Hi, I created class "Example" with some string properties. When i write text with link to other wiki page into property, it works well in document page, but when I display list of documents in LiveTable, link to wiki page is not visible. Is there possibility to display link to any wiki pages in LiveTable which is used to display documents type "Example"? (not link to "Example" documents, but link to any wiki page written in some property). I studied LiveTableMacro description but I didn't manage to do it.

[xwiki-users] Flash video files over 20MB errors
by Meng Wu 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

Dear XWiki developers and users, Some of our users are having trouble uploading flash video files larger than 20MB on pages in the wiki. We've noticed either of two things happening: 1) When clicking the file attachment, it leads to a page that says "template does not exist" Or 2) When clicking the file attachment, you are prompted to download it. However, the download file is 0KB. These symptoms are only happening for flv files larger than 20MB. For more clarification, here is a timeline of what happens: · User uploads these files · Big files return “template does not exist” error and most flash video files larger than 20MB gets cut down to 0KB · User re-uploads these files · These files work, are able to be downloaded with all the content, are able to be played by the jw player, and the problem, at least for a while, seems to be fixed · A little while later, these files start to fail, seemingly in the order they were uploaded in (somefiles bigger than 20MB get the error message and some files, when downloaded, have 0KB, even though the attachment display says otherwise) We checked that the maximum attachment size for us was set to 1GB, so we're not really sure what the problem is. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Felix

[xwiki-users] Reverse proxy problems
by Gerhard Esterhuizen 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

Hi, I recently deployed XWiki Enterprise behind an Apache HTTP server acting as a reverse proxy. This was done in order to map the XWiki web interface into our intranet namespace and to perform SSL termination. To get this working, I had to resort to a few hacks and workarounds due to the fact that not all parts of XWIki Enterprise seem to be friendly towards reverse proxies. A workable solution was eventually achieved through config file changes and the addition of some Apache URL rewrite rules (e.g. redirect all requests for "http://foo.com/xwiki/bar" to "https://foo.com/xwiki/bar"). Today, I had to deploy another XWiki instance behind an Apache HTTP server, again for reasons of namespace consolidation and SSL termination. However, this time I do not have as much freedom as I had on the previous server and are finding myself stuck at this point. Examples of specific issues are that URLs of skin resources are served using the HTTP (i.e. insecure) protocol and some redirects are generated for the local address instead of the proxied address (e.g. login page from unauthorised and default post login redirect page). I'm not looking for particular solutions to these issues as much as trying to establish how likely I am to get this right and whether I'm trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Specific questions as follows: 1. Did anyone manage to successfully deploy XWiki behind an HTTP reverse proxy without resorting to hacks and workarounds ? If so, please share some information about the magic configuration. Does the problem, perhaps, lie with Apache's reverse proxy module or its interaction with XWiki ? 2. Is my expectation to have XWiki working behind an HTTP reverse proxy misplaced ? If not, and XWiki does intend to support this, are the issues I describe above well known or should I report them somewhere ? Also, what can I do to help and contribute to such an effort ? 3. Are these issues due to the platform or the layers above it (e.g. skins and apps) ? Does the platform provide a "right way" that the layers above it can use to generate URLs that would always work correctly through a reverse proxy ? BTW, thanks for a great product!
