[xwiki-users] Can't contact farm administration wiki anymore
by Werner Greßhoff 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

Hello, I've a strange effect with our wiki farm: I can't contact the farm administration wiki anymore! All other wikis are available! Xwiki seems to think the xwiki wiki is not available and forwards me to the error page (this wiki is not available, as configured in xwiki.cfg). Is there a way to figure out what's happening here? Same system is running on a staging system and the farm admin is working well! -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Werner Greßhoff Dezernat 2 - Digitale Dienste Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster

[xwiki-users] Filesystem Storage vs Database Storage
by wac＠yellowhippy.com 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

Hello everyone, since we have a lot of large attachments (10 MB +) inside our wiki, we are considering the new filesystem based attachment storage engine. As described here: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filesystem+Attachment+… it is still experimental. I was wondering if anyone has any experiences which he/she could share with me so I am not losing any data and make the same mistakes? Has anyone used the extension to transfer their files from the database to the filesystem? Thank you for your feedback, Chris

[xwiki-users] [UX] Tips&Tricks
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

Hi, I was thinking about what tips and tricks XWiki has, things that are not really that well documented but that are very productive and fun. Would be nice to have such an inspiring thread from which we could learn a lot and, why not, have fun experimenting :) If the thread is really useful we could also integrate these tips more clearly in our documentation or also we could have a tips panel inside XWiki Enterprise, for beginners/intermediate users. The tip structure could be: *Title: ** Level: ** Target: * *Description:* Thanks, Caty* *

[xwiki-users] Why the "created" and "last modified" time are wrong?
by flyisland 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Hi All, I have installed "XWiki Enterprise 2.2.1.27354" on my laptop, and found that after created or modified the document, the "created" and "last modified" time are wrong! For example, my local time is "2010/04/28, 22:08", but the "date" of the document I just created is "2010/04/28, 09:38". My local time zone is "Beijing, China", UTC/GMT +8 hours. How could I solve this issue? You comments are welcome! Island

[xwiki-users] one to many - select - suggest - query error
by Gianluca Sabena 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

Hi, I have an object (Intranet.AbCompany) where I would like to insert a relation to objects of type Intranet.AbPerson Does "display type input" allow to display one field and submit a different field (I mean to work in the same way select list does)? This is useful because if you have 1000 or more values select is not practical and the only solution is an input box with suggest. In this scenario, I need to display the person surname, but store the related object id (my use case is an internal address book, where you need to connect company and person) Thank you, Gianluca ------- Note, settings an errors ------------------------ Settings: - multiple objects are stored in a single page - field type is "database list" - multiple select, relational storage, suggest are all checked - If display type is select it works well - if display type is input, the suggest ajax call throw an exception - Hibernate query used: SELECT pval.value, pid.value FROM BaseObject obj, StringProperty pval, StringProperty pid WHERE obj.className='Intranet.AbPersonClass' AND obj.name <> 'Intranet.AbPersonTemplate' AND pval.id.id = obj.id AND pval.id.name = 'surname' AND pid.id.id = obj.id AND pid.id.name = 'name' - ajax exception: Request URL:http://....../xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?

[xwiki-users] Include website as xwiki page
by Vincenzo Brancato 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

Hello, is there a possibility to include a website directly as a wiki page, so that clicking on a link, that redirects you to an external (www) page, loads the website directly as a "frame" in my xwiki instance. At the moment I am only able to create links that load the external site in a new tab or page.

[xwiki-users] database / xwiki objects corruption?
by brian 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Hey everyone I'm having a problem with my xwiki setup, but I can't figure out the source of the problem neither where I should look. Here's the problem: - Xwiki is running properly on my setup. After several hours, Panels and Blog posts are mostly empty - When I check one of my panels, it says it's got unused properties that can be deleted if I want to; in fact, these properties are very much needed. - Then I checked these xwiki objects in class edition mode: Blog.* Panels.*; they are all empty and do not have any property. Restarting the application does nothing. Reimporting those objects with a XAR file pretty solves the problem. *But I can't figure out what happened*. Is there a way these objects were corrupted in database? Here's my setup: - two tomcats running xwiki 3.0 - one mysql database (innodb engine) I checked all the logs for errors but couldn't find anything relevant (as far as I know) -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/database-xwiki-objects-corruption-tp66018… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
