[xwiki-users] How to completely remove XWiki Enterprise
by Giordano Ninonà 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

Hi users, Yesterday I was testing my java component and after I have deleted some pages from my wiki (I am running XWiki Enterprise 7.3) I started to get some errors and malfunctioning such as: I don't see anymore any pages under the "Deleted pages" index and when I try to delete some nested pages the wiki is telling me that the deletion would affect several childern even if those children are not diplayed anywhere. If I agree I got errors becase "I don't have the permission to delete them" even if I am logged as administrator. When I see that I am not even able to call the methods from my java component through the script service,( those method are in charge of creating new pages as well XClasses and XObjects) I have decided to unistall XWiki Enterprise and re-install it. Unfortunately I see that I have the same errors. Moreover after I have started the XWiki, before I click on the "XWiki Home" icon on my desktop, I have noticed in the terminal the following warnings: *[main] WARN ltInstalledExtensionRepository - Invalid extension [org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-wiki-ui-common-7.3] on namespace [wiki:WIKINAME] (InvalidExtensionException: No compatible extension is installed for dependency [org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-wiki-ui-common-7.3]* And I get this warning for each wiki that I have created BEFORE I UNISTALLED IT. After I try to call my methods (that should creates wiki pages Xclasses and Xobjects) it start working until I get a bunch of Exceptions and some ERROR 3002 and some ERROR 2002. The strange thing is that a couple of days ago it worked fine. So finally my question is how can I COMPLETELY delete everything that is related to XWiki Enterprise in my computer and then perform a clean XWiki Enterprise installation? I hope to get a quick answer because this is my master thesis project and I only need to perform some final testing as I am graduating in 40 days. Please help me in find a solution Giordano.

[xwiki-users] New versions of attachments not recognized
by Mark Sack 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

I started out with my system configured to use the hibernate attachment storage and then later converted it to file storage using the Database to Filesystem porter in the Admin Tools extension. Initially everything appeared to work fine. Attached images reappeared on the pages after I ran the porter. But now I'm finding that, if I load a new version of an attachment image, the page continues to display the old version of the image instead of the new one. If I edit the page, delete the image and then reinsert it, the updated version is displayed in the WYSIWYG view. But after I Save & View the page, the old version of the image is displayed. Even if I delete the attachment completely from the list of attachments and the page and then reload the new version (so that the old version is no longer listed) and add it back to the page, the old version is still displayed. My environment is as follows: Debian 8, Java openjdk-7-jre-headless, postgresql 9.4.6, tomcat8 The problem occurs in both my production system on 7.4.1 and a new VM created from scratch with 7.4.2. Note that, in order to get the porter to work, I had to replace the groovy script with the new version provided by Caleb as per http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Admin-Tools-database-to-filesystem-porter… -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/New-versions-of-attachments-not-recognize… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Help spread the word about XWiki - add your review!
by Guillaume Lerouge 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

Hi users, I'm trying new ways to spread the word about XWiki. One approach that seems to be popular right now are review websites such as Getapp and G2Crowd. For instance Drupal has a page on G2Crowd <https://www.g2crowd.com/products/drupal/reviews>, so I thought it could be interesting to try it out too. In order to see whether this could work well for XWiki, I have created a page on G2Crowd: *https://www.g2crowd.com/products/xwiki/reviews <https://www.g2crowd.com/products/xwiki/reviews>* It would be very cool if you could spend a bit of time to add a review of your experience with XWiki there! Thanks and happy XWikiing, Guillaume

[xwiki-users] Feature Request: Allow copy & paste of images into WYSIWYG editor
by Stuart Stephen 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

Hi all, In various web applications these days it is now possible to copy and paste images into web pages which makes the process of adding an image to a document online so much easier as you do not need to save it off somewhere, then upload it. Copy and paste makes the process so much more efficient. See the upload feature on http://imgur.com/ for example, where they also support drag and drop.

[xwiki-users] Duplicated entries in group from LDAP
by aleksey-s 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

Hi, We use version 7.1.2. We created some groups in xwiki. And set up them in LDAP menu. For example, perform next actions: 1. Create xwiki group `test`. 2. In LDAP menu in group mapping section input group name `xwiki.test` and group in LDAP for mapping `CN=test.... ` It works, users login and appear in group, but after few weeks we see many duplicated entries in group. If really in group must be ~200 users then today I see ~4000. This problem exist almost in all LDAP groups. Why xwiki duplicate user entries in groups? How to delete duplicated entries in groups ? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Duplicated-entries-in-group-from-LDAP-tp7… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Creating a seperate login page in a space that is not blocked (ie XWiki)
by Jan-Paul Kleijn 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

Hi there, The login page of XWiki is situated in the XWiki space. From this space it is not possible to load pages with a XMLHttpRequest in javascript. I want to work around this by creating a seperate login page with exactly the same content as the current XWiki login page. I would like to know if this will pose a security risk or not. I do not understand why it should but I am asking you to make sure I am not forgetting anything. If you like I can share the procedure with you because I think it can be an improvement over the current situation. Kind regards, Jan-Paul Kleijn

[xwiki-users] Not able to create new skin
by Mark Sack 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

In 7.4.1 (standalone installation) I'm trying to create a new skin using A. and C. in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Skins. I've a couple of different variations but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. The steps I followed are: 1. Login as Admin - URL is http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ 2. Edit URL and go to http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/MySkinPage/ 3. I see that the page does not exist and follow the 'edit this page' to create it. 4. Press the Create button and then Save & View. 5. Open the Objects editor and select the XWiki.XWikiSkins class - press Add 6. In the object properties, set the Name to 'My New Skin' 7. Set the base skin to 'flamingo' - Press Save & View. 8. Select the Test this skin link and everything looks fine. 9. Go to Administer Wiki -> Presentation. 10. Set both the Stylesheet and Stylesheets fields to Main.MySkinPage 11. Set the Skin field to 'My New Skin' and press Save. 12. This results in a Java error ... Caused by: java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in path at index 9: /skins/My New Skin/admin.vm ... I thought maybe the error was that spaces were not allowed. So I created a new instance and followed the same steps but in steps 6 and 11 used 'MyNewSkin'. Then the browser showed the following: Error You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action. The URL was http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globala… I also thought that maybe in step 11 I need to use Main.MySkinPage instead. This resulted in the same error, i.e. Error You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Not-able-to-create-new-skin-tp7598159.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
