[xwiki-users] Using a JDNI DataSource for connection pooling
by Bryn Jeffries 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

I've been exploring connection pooling for an external database, but I'm struggling to use it. I'm running XWiki 6.3 on a Ubuntu server. In /etc/xwiki/context.xml I have <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Context>  <Resource name="jdbc/mydbds" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" username="dbuser" password="dbpass" driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver" url="jdbc:postgresql:alertdb" maxActive="10" maxIdle="4" /> </Context> And I have a symlink to this at /usr/lib/xwiki/WEB-INF/context.xml I'm trying to test that I can access this with a Groovy script. I'm not entirely sure of the correct approach here, but the most successful I've got it with {{groovy}} import groovy.sql.Sql import javax.naming.Context import javax.naming.InitialContext import javax.sql.DataSource Context ctx = new InitialContext(); DataSource dataSource = (DataSource) ctx.lookup("jdbc/mydbds"); def sql = new Sql(dataSource) {{/groovy}} However this fails with javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name [jdbc/mydbds] is not bound in this Context. Unable to find [jdbc]. Would anyone be able to tell me whether this is the right sort of way to be going about using a JNDI resource, and what's wrong with my implementation?

[xwiki-users] Wrong parameter for password reset
by lorconksu 17 Feb '15

17 Feb '15

Just want to apologize if this has been asked already, but I was not able to find this in the archive. I have a new instance of XWiki install and everything is working fine, but I am having issue with the "Reset my password" link at the login page. It send the email out fine, but when I click on the link, it takes me to the xwiki with the error message: "Wrong Parameters. Back to the password reset page". I searched the internet and I come up empty, is there a setting I forgot to setup? Please let me know. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Wrong-parameter-for-password-reset-tp7593… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Server side validation / block save
by Jason Clemons 09 Feb '15

09 Feb '15

Hello all, I'm hoping someone can give me a suggestion to save my skin. When I was brand new to xwiki I quickly created an application for "ticketing" using AppWithinMinutes because it seemed like the easiest way for a newbie to create an application. In doing so I created a form which had several controls on it (e.g.. around 20 or so). In order to maintain business logic I wrote EXTENSIVE JavaScript which enforces business rules and prevents a save (basically cancelling the postback through JavaScript) if they aren't met. Admittedly this isn't that great of a solution as now I'm having problems with JavaScript failures (mostly with other libraries being loaded with xwiki which prevents my JavaScript from running) which then allow the pages to be saved despite validation failures. What I'm hoping is that there is some way to "shim" some server side code in using an event listener, or some sort of "before save" event in velocity or groovy that can evaluate the submitted page and prevent a save if the business logic rules are broken. I don't really have the luxury of re-writing or refactoring the solution I've written because it's in production at this point and works 95% of the time, but I definitely need to do more in relation to validation since broken rules cause downstream impacts to other applications relying on clean data. So, any help is GREATLY appreciated. I have seen this http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Creating+a+form+with+valid ation+and+tooltips and reviewed it, but I can't really figure out how I would use it with an existing page or with AppWithinMinutes. Also, I already have an event listener configured which does some stuff that I might be able to use for this purpose.. but I think those events (DocumentCreatedEvent() and DocumentUpdatedEvent()) happens AFTER the save and I haven't really been able to find a way to "block" the save if it does happen before anyway.. I would need to invoke validation on save and update of documents too.. I'm hoping there might be some way of adding code to the AppWithinMinutes generated page that can do some post save validation and stop the save if it fails. So help !!! :)

[xwiki-users] Solr schema customization
by Mike Hoolehan 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

I would like to customize the solr schema.xml and solrconfig.xml used for our instance of xwiki (enterprise 6.1) to provide some additional fields and to customize (and enforce) search behaviors. My first attempt at modifying xwiki's data/solr/xwiki/conf/*.xml seemed successful at first, but after xwiki restarts the solr index appeared flawed in some way (all search gave zero results) even after full index rebuilds. I see clues in xwiki.properties that custom solr config dirs and even external solr instances are supported, but have not found any specific documentation. I'm not certain the above implies that solr configuration customization is supported. Is it possible and, if so, is there any general guidance on utilizing custom schemas or external solrs? Thanks, Mike

by Pascal BASTIEN 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

Hello,I have a docClass with some properties and use a linked Sheet to display my data.On this thread http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Help-with-custom-display-td508630.htmlI saw we can get this value in "custom display" field of docClass properties.- $name = the name of the displayed field - $prefix = a prefix for the form field - $object = the displayed object - $type = the intended display mode (view, edit, hidden, search...) - $value = the property value I try to have same value from mydocSheet (in particulary prefix the id of the field in edit form) There Velocity code in my docSheet: #set($class = $doc.getObject('MySpace.docClass').xWikiClass) #foreach($prop in $class.properties) * "$prop.Name" * $prop.?????? How to obtain the prefix ??? * $object (it doesn't matter) * $xcontext.action * $doc.getValue($prop.Name) $prop.prettyName $doc.display($prop.getName()) #end #break If any have an (or many) idea how I can obtain this prefix in my Sheet (If not I can concanet MySpace.docClass_0_$prop.Name but I'm not sure about _0_) Thxs Pascal B

[xwiki-users] Creating a panel for all wikis
by Jamal 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

Hi, I'd like to create a new panel and place it in the sidebar of every wiki in my wiki farm. Is there a way to automatically make panels that I create for the main wiki available to subwikis, or do I have to manually copy them over?

[xwiki-users] attachmentsinline.vm loses context: $doc “undefined”
by Nazzareno Pompei 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

Hello xWikiers, I’ve just registered to the mailing list and I’m pleased to introduce you the site http://apice.unibo.it, developed by the APICe Research Group, which belong to The Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science (DISI) of University of bologna, Italy. The site is up since 2007, starting from xwiki 1.1. Since then it has been migrated step by step and is now powered by xwiki 2.1.2. It’s my aim to migrate to latest version, but I’m stuck in the middle of the process, because of a problem during migration to 2.2.6 with the rendering of the comments, attachments, history and Information Here's what happens: http://apice.unibo.it/xwiki/bin/download/Sandbox/WebHome/bug226.jpg As can be seen, I use a cloned test site to simulate every upgrade task; I’ve injected some debug code in the docextra.vm template (as in attachmentsinline.vm) To solve the bug, I’m focusing on docextra.vm template: the $doc and the $tdoc variables are “undefined” when the *inline.vm template are called inside the javascrit, with document.observe or Event.observe that run XWiki.displayDocExtra("${extraAnchor}", "${extraTemplate}", false); for instance ${extraAnchor} = “attachments”, ${extraTemplate} = “attachmentsinline.vm” From the log it’s clear that this is the problem ($tdoc variable is “undefined”) because I find in the log: https://test.apice.unibo.it/xwiki/bin/view/Publications/undefined?xpage=xpa… instead the correct url should be, for example: https://test.apice.unibo.it/xwiki/bin/view/Publications/BioSac2012?xpage=xp… that actually works! I do not can understand why The $doc and the $tdoc variable is “undefined” at runtime… Any suggestion? Thank you very much Nazzareno Pompei PS: I’m experiencing a problem with import page too, is it entangled? http://apice.unibo.it/xwiki/bin/download/Sandbox/WebHome/importBug.png --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Ing.

[xwiki-users] Refreshing a LiveTable
by Bryn Jeffries 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

Is there a "right" way to make a LiveTable refresh? I have a page that includes a LiveTable to show the results of a query on an external database, and a form triggers an AJAX call to modify the database (e.g., insert a new row). I'd like the AJAX call to include an action within OnSuccess to make the LiveTable refresh to show these modifications. http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Proposal-Hightlight-applied-filters-in-li… and http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-5100 appear to discuss something of this kind, but I couldn't find any instructions. The closest thing was a line in livetable.js https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/4f92c9fc4dc9d4bb7b42a54f3e289f… where it looks like a refresh is triggered on event "xwiki:livetable:mylivetable:filtersChanged". I have tried calling document.fire('xwiki:livetable:mylivetable:filtersChanged'); from within a javascript function, but this did not appear to make the "mylivetable" LiveTable update. Could anyone direct me further? Thanks, Bryn

[xwiki-users] Empty Document Title
by Matthias Wegner 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

Hi All, i have a working groovy script which is: I use a class and add an object to a document. Everytime a object is attached i look for it with the query and do something with the objects. the strange thing is that i try to port it to a service to java. where i get in groovy an title of the document it is NOT given in java. The java code of the service I didn't get it. Did i do something wrong? i never get a title of the document. I can read the document, the object of the document, but i did not get the title. I tried also to get translated documents because i use locals de and en. But even there i get the title back. You know why?
