[xwiki-users] Ajax.Query and cross-site AJAX requests?
by xwiki.mexon＠spamgourmet.com 26 Jan '13

26 Jan '13

Hi, I want one of my pages to make a post to another site and insert the results into its page. Right now I've got a JavaScriptExtension that looks like: function doquery() { new Ajax.Request('http://mat.exon.name/test.php', { method:'post', parameters:{ 'arg' : document.getElementById('thearg').value, }, }); return false; } I find that this does an OPTIONS request, but not the intended POST. If I change the URL to a local page, the POST goes through as intended. Am I tripping up over some kind of XSS defense, and is there some way to turn it off?

[xwiki-users] off-line-Version of XWiki
by lists＠yhmail.de 26 Jan '13

26 Jan '13

Hello again! I would like to make a xwiki-instance accessible off-line. I tried to export everything as HTML with rather bad results as the navigation and the scripting isn't exported. So the idea was to somehow export xwiki to some standalone version. Has anyone ever done something like this and wouldn't mind sharing his/her inside thoughts? Thanks for your help, Stephanie

[xwiki-users] translations
by Gerritjan Koekkoek 25 Jan '13

25 Jan '13

The XWiki instance where the community can translate the keys for XWiki enterprise is very difficult to use. Would it be possible to select the keys based on extensions/modules Example: 1) If I would like to check which keys of the BLOG application are translated in dutch? And which are still not translated? 2) Look at keys for the top-menu bar in XWiki To look at a alphabetical list of more then 5000 key's is a bit overestimating the stamina of potential translators Gerritjan Koekkoek

[xwiki-users] Problem with changing access rights at a page level
by Marcin Zajączkowski 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hi, I would like to change access rights for a given page. Regarding to: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/RightsManagement it should be possible with "Hover over "Edit" and click on "Access Rights":". Unfortunately I don't have any drop down menu next to an "Edit" link. I can just click Edit, but I don't see any rights management options there. My account has an Admin rights in my wiki. Has it been changed since a version described in a documentation? I'm using XWiki 4.4. Marcin

Hi XWiki users, I could not find in the XWiki documentation a hint of the supported languages for the code macro. I wrote a small script in a XWiki page that read out of pygment (the technology behind the code macro) all supported languages with language name, files extension and mimetype. See: http://www.hierlmeier.de/wiki/bin/view/Main/SupportedCodeMacroLanguages Richard

[xwiki-users] Avatar in livetables oversized after migrating to 4.4
by Nicolas Sanitas 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hi all, I've got a problem after having migrating to 4.4. I use a few livetables in different workspaces displaying their users ; it worked well until now. But the avatar are now oversized when displayed in livetables, ie. it looks that it's the photo in its actual size which is displayed... I precise that I tried to upload new avatars; I also verified that this happened in all my workspaces. I was previously in 4.2. Anybody can help? Thanks by advance, Nicolas

[xwiki-users] Authenticate to database backend with kerberos
by Eric McCorkle 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Hi, I'm trying to set up XWiki in a network with a PostgreSQL database that uses kerberos for authentication. I know it is possible to control the authentication mechanism used by the JDBC driver using login.conf. For example, the following simple program accesses a postgresql database: import java.sql.*; import java.util.*; import org.postgresql.Driver; class Test { public static void main(String... args) throws Exception { Properties props = new Properties(); props.setProperty("loglevel", "2"); props.setProperty("user", "xwiki"); props.setProperty("ssl", "true"); Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://db.example.com:5432/xwiki", props); } } It can be made to use a kerberos keytab by passing -Djava.security.auth.login.config=login.conf, with the following login.conf file: pgjdbc { com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required useKeyTab=true keyTab=xwiki.keytab principal=xwiki storeKey=true doNotPrompt=true; }; (pgjdbc is apparently the default application name for the postgresql driver) I want to do something similar with the xwiki installation (running inside tomcat 7). 1) Is there some reason this cannot be done? 2) What is the application name I need to give in login.conf for this to work properly? Thanks, Eric
