Hi XWikiers,
Good news, this year again XWiki has been selected as mentor organization !
The next step is for mentors to register to
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ as ask to be mentor for XWiki
project (admins can also send invitations). Also don't hesitate to add
more proposals on
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/ (there is only
proposals from two mentors right now), more details or co-mentor
existing proposals.
Some students already started to communicate with the community which
is great so continue and read
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/Guidelines to
have a better idea of how to get more chance to be selected by XWiki
mentors.
Good GSOC 2017 !

Hi! After many years surviving with Velocity scripts, it is time to enjoy
Groovy's magic! :-)
Both XWiki sites and the web, in general, are crowded with sites/pages with
plenty of Groovy tutorials and manuals, but it would be great to have some
simple examples to helping understand the similarities and differences
between Velocity and Groovy.
Please, is there any XWiki resource explaining, for instance, how to
achieve the same results shown in these sections by using Groovy?

It seem that you use a mysql database to store your xwiki pages, then you must copy (or download) your MySQL JDBC Driver JAR like indicate here:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMySQL#HInst…
<<You need to have the MySQL JDBC Driver JAR (named mysql-connector-java*.jar) installed in XWiki's WAR file. If this file isn't present in XWiki's WEB-INF/lib directory you'll need to download it and copy it there. You can download it from the MySQL Connector/J Driver page or directly from the Maven Central Repository.>>
and restart Tomcat (you need to add only one jar file)
And don't forget to check:
xwiki.store.migration=1
in /WEB-INF/xwiki.cfg

Hello,
I want to draw a UML Diagram with the XWiki Plugin "PlantUML". As I tested it, I found a problem with the feature of including links in the diagram.
I can't connect an URL to an object, because XWiki seems to import the Macro as a picture (something like jpeg or gif).
There is a good Manual on how to insert links on the HowTo Page of PlantUML.com ( http://plantuml.com/incubation ). The one I tried was a very basic test:
@startuml
Bob -> Alice : ok
url of Bob is [[http://www.google.com]]
@enduml
The problem with this is, that you can't click on "Bob" as a link because the link is not passed through to the XWiki page.
Maybe you have an idea how to solve it or could tell me if there is a way to work around this.
Thank you in advance
Kind regards,

Hello,
I'm trying to upgrade our xwiki from 7.1.2 to 9.0.
I figured out how to do it with copying the xwiki.cfg, xwiki.properties and hibernate.cfg.xml but I can't use the new .jars in the WEB-INF/lib directory.
If I import the 9.0.jars tomcat7 can't find the xwiki Main page.
I tried to configure it in hibernate.cfg.xml but it looks okay to me.
On the Upgrading Page http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade Tom Neumann said, that you have to copy the MySQL Connector file from the old xwiki installation.
At first I couldn't find it so I replaced the whole WEB-INF/lib directory with the old one. That is working but now I have all the old .jars from 7.1.2...
So I decided to replace them with the new ones but that doesn't work because as I said above Tomcat won't find the pages.
I tried to copy only one at a time to figure out which one needs to be configured or has to stay the same as in the old version but every .jar I copy gives me the same error...
Could you help me please? I have now a 9.0 Version running (as it says on the bottom of my page) but with all the 7.1.2 libs in the WEB-INF folder...
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,

Whenever I save a new class (app?) based wiki page (blog, FAQ or custom app) I get a red error at the bottom of the page that reads: "Failed to save the page. Reason: Server not responding" The strange thing is the page did save. Other than the error message nothing appears to be wrong.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this or where I should begin troubleshooting?
Regards,
Jesse
