[xwiki-users] Issues with XWiki Enterprise standalone installer in Windows 7 (X64)

by Akila Darshana Panditha

Hello , Recently i tried to use XWiki Entrprise windows installer on windows 7(x64) and encountered following problem Starting XWiki using Script fails with "The system cannot find the path specified." message on console caused by "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError" After basic inspection of stack trace , I have found that class path was set incorrectly by the installer. defined path was some thing like * "Darshana\AppData\Roaming\XWiki\5.0-milestone-2\data"* but correct path should be *"C:\Users\Akila Darshana\AppData\Roaming\XWiki\5.0-milestone-2\data" and *seems like space in the user account name is causing this error. I would like to know if anyone had similar experience and expert thoughts on this issue (a possible bug). Thanks in advance (FYI - my installation path is C:/XWiki avoiding access control issues with program files folder) -- Akila Darshana Panditha SMIEEE Undergraduate (BSc Engineering) Department of Computer Science and Engineering University of Moratuwa Sri Lanka. about.me/akiladarshana Telephone - *+94714407683* (Mobile) , *+94112641772* (Residence) Blog - akiladarshana.wordpress.com

In XWiki we often say "everything is a document". The diagram that you created is a document (a wiki page if you prefer). The diagram content (its drawing instructions) is stored in the document content. The diagram meta data is stored in objects attached to that document (just edit the document with the object editor and see). So if you want to display the diagram inside another document, the reference that you have to pass to the display macro is the reference to the document holding the diagram: {{display reference="Diagram.MyFirstDiagram" /}} The part before the diagram name (before the dot) is the space name, and currently the Diagram application creates all diagrams in the Diagram space.

[xwiki-users] Classification in Xwiki

by geoffreyma

Hello, I have tried several enterprise wiki and I like Xwiki very much appart from one thing that makes me hesitant to go for it. This thing is the classification. It seems so messy for me to not have a clear classification of the pages and documents, and I think others get crazy with it too. What would seem logical and intuitive for me is to have by default a side panel with a tree of all the directories (or categories or spaces, depending on how you call it), sub directories, sub sub, and pages. By default this panel would be empty and as soon as you create a first test directory and a first test page, this panel would start to fill up. This would be the main menu by default. Xwiki has spaces, that's well. But why cannot we create sub spaces and why are they not displayed in a hierarchical menu on all pages? My suggestion is a kind of taxonomy improvement. We could have displayed by default on all pages: - a panel with a tree of the spaces and pages - a panel you can expand with the type of documents (wiki pages, documents, etc) so that you can access to a page displaying all the wiki pages, to a page displaying all the documents, to a page displaying all the blog posts, to a page displaying all the comments, etc. - a panel you can expand with collections (or "categories"). This collections would be created by the administrator and would be for example "Procedure", "Specification sheet", "Documentation", "News", etc. - a panel you can expand with all the users. When you click on a user, you can see a page with all the pages he has created, all the pages he as modified, etc. - a tag panel The Classification is one of the most important aspect in an ressources/knowledge/procedure portal. It seems for me that the classification should be improved in Xwiki. If I haven't understood something, could you help me by giving me the good practises on how enterprise organise their documents in xwiki so that it is easily and intuitively accessible by their users.

[xwiki-users] Speech Wiki

by Hamster

I just noticed the new extension "Speech Wiki" <http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/SpeechWiki> That "sounds" great! But on the page it states that "Also you need to authorize access to voice recognition"...but it doesn't say how! So I can't use it at this moment :-( And I have read there's something "magic"al about this extension... ;-) -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Speech-Wiki-tp7584681.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [xwiki-users] a little help wanted

by Marius Dumitru Florea

Hi Joachim, It's best to ask for help on the users list so that others can benefit from the answer. Did you managed to install the extension? See http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Extension+Manager+Appl… if you have trouble. Note that if you're using XWiki 5.0M2 best is to install (or upgrade to) version 1.0.2 of the Diagram Application. After the extension is installed go to your home page and you should see a "Diagram" link in the Applications panel. Follow the link. On the Diagram Application home page there is a small panel with a "Add new entry" link which lets you create new diagrams. You can then include the created diagrams in other pages, if you wish, using the display macro http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Display+Macro . Hope this helps, Marius On Fri, Apr 12, 2013 at 2:11 PM, <joachim(a)mund-online.de> wrote: > Hi Marius, > > I am new to xwiki and would like to use your extension "Diagram Application". > > Unfortunately I'm not familiar how to include this extension in a xwiki page. > Could you please give me a link of a tutorial/doc or some words how to do this. > > Coming from DokuWiki I have to learn a lot of xwiki basics. > > Thanks in advanced, Joachim > > _____________________________________ > Sent from http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com >
