[xwiki-users] Upgrade problems xwiki 6.1 - missing attachments
by Leonardo Kodato 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Hi everyone. I've got some problems upgrading xwiki 5.4.1 to xwiki 6.1(stable). The upgrade went well, but it missed almost all the attachments(I use filesystem storage). They are there, inside Storage folder, but Xwiki can't find it. I searched over the internet and found 3 different documentations for the upgrade process. 1 - https://network.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/DocXE51En/XWikiEnterpriseInstallat… 2 - http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade 3 - http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowCanIUpdateXWIKIFromAnOlderVersion The last one is a FAQ and appears to be outdated. So I used only the first ones. They differ little, but I think they should be unificated, because some aspects are not present in one, but they are present in another or vice versa. Correct me if I'm doing something wrong: 1 - Stop java container(Tomcat) 2 - Backup up data schema, 3 - Backup up files and folders: Extension, Lucene, Solr, Storage(Im using filesystem storage), jobs and xwiki-temp. hibernate, xwiki.cfg and .properties, logback.xml. Also backup up any changes you've made(skins, for example) 4 - Remove the old xwiki files(5.4.1) and replace it with the new ones(6.1). 5 - Configure xwiki.cfg, xwiki.properties and hibernate to match the old configuration(do not replace). 6 - Insert the database connector(in this case, Mysql) inside lib folder 7 - Put all the data files from item 3 inside the environment.permanentDirectory(in my case, its the data folder) 8 - Restart the container 9 - Point the browser to xwiki instalation 10 - Follow the steps of Distribution Wizard 11 - Check if everything went right(attachments, dataschema, templates Thank you very much.

[xwiki-users] Enabling "Forgot your username or password?" on Log-in page
by ghri-bh 16 Jul '14

16 Jul '14

Hello, I have a new installation of XWiki Enterprise 6.0.1. The Log-in screen initially included the feature/line "Forgot your username or password?" (Where username and password are both links). In order to prevent unregistered users from viewing pages, I enabled (in Administer Wiki > Users & Groups > Rights > Groups) the setting "Prevent unregistered users from viewing pages, regardless of the page or space rights." But after enabling this configuration option, the "Forget your username or password?" feature has disappeared from the Log-in screen. Is there any way to get this feature back onto the Login-screen? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Enabling-Forgot-your-username-or-password… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] [IDEA] Community phonebook
by Andreea Popescu 15 Jul '14

15 Jul '14

Hello all, I was thinking about implementing an easier means of communicating and keeping in touch with you, like a community phonebook. An example of such a means of communication is the one implemented by Mozilla for their contributors: mozillians.org. Such a system would allow various badges or the possibility to be accepted in certain groups, for the users who contributed the most or who took part in certain activities. For instance, could create a badge for the testing process, and when you’ve amounted 30 or more manual tests, you would receive that badge automatically. This badge system could be implemented for other perks as well, one for every type of contribution to XWiki. The badge system would need you to create a profile that would contain the following: - E-mail address, which would have the option to hide the address if the user desires it; - Language options; - The fields of activity you are most interested in; - The groups you are part of; - The badges received so far. The system is aimed to enhance the communication between community members and we would like to know your opinion regarding its implementation and usefulness and, also, the system would allow recognitions of the community contributions This system is just an idea (a general one), so, please express your view in a reply to this email to know if I go further with it. Thank you, Andreea

[xwiki-users] exchanging the ScriptMacro ClassLoader
by Summer, Roman 14 Jul '14

14 Jul '14

Hello I want to write a java script macro which is able to load jars from an external currently not supported source (e.g. from a maven repository). Therefore I want to exchange the used class loader. Overriding the ScriptMacroParameters#getJars() method is not possible for me, because I only want to load the classes in view and not in edit mode. My question: How is it possible to exchange the currently injected implementation of the interface org.xwiki.rendering.internal.macro.script.AttachmentClassLoaderFactory for my macro to exchange the used class loader or is there another recommended official way to ream my aim. Thank you very much for your help. Yours faithfully Roman Summer

[xwiki-users] Display problem: gray background
by Leonardo Kodato 12 Jul '14

12 Jul '14

Hi all. I'm using xwiki for some months and it was going very well. But today I've got the following problem: When I try to access any page, it loads and then it turns into a gray background right after the loading. I can, however, access the code by the browser. The last thing I did before this happen was change the layout of an app via App Within Minutes. I have not changed a single line in the source code. I have also tried to access with another browser and restarted the server, with no success. I think it's a problem with Javascript and how it displays the page, but I don't know very well Javascript to check where is the error. I'm using Tomcat 7 and Mysql 5.6. The Xwiki's version is 5.3, I think, but I can't check it for sure because I cant see it =P. Here's a print screen: http://imgur.com/PgL5uak Thank you very much.

Re: [xwiki-users] Welcome to the "users" mailing list

Hello, I'm new new new to xwiki, but I think it's pretty cool so far. I've been killing myself trying to work out where to add javascriptextension on an "app within minute" page. I want the javascript to create some handlers on page load, hide some buttons, form validation etc.. for the life of me I can't really figure out the best place to put my code. Right now I've got some javascript working by putting an {{html}} tag with a <script> tag on the class sheet, but somehow it doesn't feel like the right way to do it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[xwiki-users] [ANN] XWiki 6.1 released
by Thomas Mortagne 09 Jul '14

09 Jul '14

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki 6.1. A lot of work has been done for the new Flamingo skin and we hope to make it the default in 6.2. This version also comes with many improvements but also introduce many new APIs and tools for developers like the integration of LESS preprocessor, a new authorization API taking care of the context and its associated script service, a new experimental Mail API, the support of grouped and asynchronous jobs in default job module executor, the possibility to log from any script, a new converter to make easier to manipulate XDOM in Velocity, and many others. The memory used in wikis with lots of documents like http://myxwiki.org has also been reduced a lot (around 40% in http://myxwiki.org for example). Finally a new loading screen with progress displayed during XWiki initialization has been introduced and the initialization speed itself has also been improved. You can download it here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download Make sure to review the release notes: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki61 Thanks -The XWiki dev team
