by Herwig Brunner 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

Hi @ all, I have the following scenario: User A views a page with 3 comments, and add's a new comment. Now User B logs in and views the same page. This User already read the first three comments and now I want that User B get's some kind of visual hit(orange triangle or something like that), that a new comment was added since his last visit. How should I aproach this Problem? Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

new page with auto-increment id
by Shawn Lauzon 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

Hi all -- I'm working to create an xwiki app that allows you to press a button, and it sends you to a new page with a generated name (i.e. not based on any user input). I can get this to work with a page name generated from the current time in milliseconds, but that gives me a really long number. I'd like to have the generated name be a number which is incremented any time a new page is created. Thus I would have pages Page_1, Page_2, Page_3, etc. I looked in our scriptlets section, but didn't see anything close. Thanks ... shawn.

Hi Benjamin, Unfortunately ObjectWeb SVN doesn't use the HTTP(S) protocol for SVN. I also would like very much to have it but it's not under our direct control...

In any case, since your last email we've released several versions of XWiki so you're probably fine. Let us know.

Groovy - permissions query
by Esbach, Brandon 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

Hi All... again! Looks like I need to use groovy for a few xwiki tools; but I just need to confirm permissions. If I understand correctly, you need programming rights to run a groovy script - does this mean all users that are viewing or modifying a page in xwiki with groovy scripts involved require programming rights? For eg: A class has a groovy script in it to compare dates (eg "is it before or after when xyz said it would be done"). This is setup at the ClassSheet level. -> On creating a document linked to that classt; will the user be able to run the groovy script attached to the ClassSheet linked to the document?

b2: cannot register, links deleted by WYSIWYG, breadcrumb
by Martin Denham 19 Jan '07

19 Jan '07

I have upgraded to b2 from an old version and we have been using b2 for a week, but here are one or two issues: If I am not logged in and click on the 'Register' link (/xwiki/bin/registerXWiki/Register) it brings up the 'Login' page. So I cannot register without logging in. I have changed 'Always authenticate on editing' to Yes, but this should not apply to registration. When the default editor is WYSIWYG, editing a page removes links to images. The bread crumb (Main:Welcome Edit Menu > My Company Wiki) does not display correctly on IE7 but does on Firefox. Thanks Martin

PDF output very different to inline/view version.
by Esbach, Brandon 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

When creating a PDF output, the view is very different from the view offered when in xwiki itself (borders, widths, etc are all overridden)... is there any way in xwiki10B2 to alter this? This was partially possible in 0.9.840 by modifying an xsl file (forget which one, about a year ago when I did this on our own servers). There seems to be only one xsl file in the current version (xhtml.xsl), which does not seem to affect the style of the PDF output.

The new Class Properties wizard (XWiki10B2)
by Esbach, Brandon 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Hi All, I guess more a question for the dev team, anyone that may know offhand otherwise ;) Searched around on the XWiki.org site with no indication of the following functionality; but cannot seem to find references in documentation at all. I've also tried to enter bits of data that seem correct (eg, a RegEx into the field at "c" does not seem to do any checks, or show any message if it fails), with no luck yet. So, hopefully can someone help me understand: a) for db lists, ID Field Name and Value Field Name indicates being able to use a different display and record value - is this correct, and if so; what is the syntax to this? b) for db lists again, there is an Xwiki Class Name field - what does this do? Entering a valid class name does not seem to alter the behaviour in any way. c) for Strings/Dates/etc there is a Validation Regular Expression (and associated Validation Message) field; is this intended as a validation expression for the field value? If so, is it active? - so far it does not give any message (provided or otherwise) when used. d) For list types, there is a new entry called Display Type - changing this does not seem to make, eg a dropdown list into an input - is this what it is intended for, and if so; what restrictions are there in the underlying code? Can a select list be changed to a text box with this field (assuming data already entered stays the same)? e) Tooltip and Custom Display: Is this an automatic field render, or must these fields be initiated in some way?

Deleting a document - XWiki10b2
by Esbach, Brandon 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Not sure if this is just me having this, but when I delete a document (for eg, an article) xwiki's top right indicates I'm logged off when I'm actually still logged in. I know I'm not timed out either (would explain being logged out at least if that was the case), as I can simply click no and continue with correct permissions, etc for the user. Example: View a news topic: <<PBrush>> Then click the delete button: <<PBrush>> Panels behave odd as well when I try delete any document, as the screenshot shows.. Not a serious problem, but I'm unsure if this is something with my code or if it's something with XWiki?

Hi there, I've some problems with the following combo: - xwiki 1.0 b2 - glassfish v2 b28 - apache mod_jk When I hit the URL http://wiki.xxx.net/xwiki/ I successfully get the "XWiki Installation" page with the link to the XWiki instance. But when I'm trying to reach the instance (eg.: http://wiki.xxx.net/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome) I receive empy pages. Even if I try to reach on its "normal" IP address: http://xx.xx.xx.xx:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ I get the same empty pages. Without mod_jk everything goes smoothly, no problems. Unfortunately there are no log events that can be debugged. Does anybody faced this problem before? Cheers, P

RE: [xwiki-users] external documents
by Gourment, Olivier 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

Thanks for the answer and let me try to explain my concern better. If we introduce XWiki in our organization, it will have to coexist with other information stores. Currently, most people use Word and other Office applications to create documents and place them on Windows shares or network directories. There will be many times when people using XWiki will want to point to such existing documents, without having to import them into XWiki or move them onto a Web server. Unless there are other best practices that I am not aware of (and in which case I would love hear about), people will need to insert links (anchors) to what I called "external documents". Does this make more sense?

RE: [xwiki-users] Is there a way to escape XWiki syntax?
by Stephen Schaub 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

This is a significant usability issue that I raised over a year ago (http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/SyntaxProcessingIssues) Because of XWiki's multiple rendering engine support, escaping the syntax is harder than it should be. It was scheduled to be addressed for the 1.0 release, but I was disappointed to see that addressing this has been bumped back to 1.1: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-208 Still, I'm glad to see determined movement towards a final 1.0 release, and hopefully this issue can be addressed in the 1.1 release.

Installed b2 - comments
by mjdenham 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

I installed b2, and thought I would feed back a couple of comments/questions, not to be critical - we have been using xwiki for a year or two and love it. I can't remember seeing in the release notes that b2 requires jdk 1.5. It might be worth mentioning that after upgrade and before panel installation the screens go a bit crazy. Is there an easy way to make the panels layout look a bit like 0.9.840? Maybe there is a layout I could import somehow? I didn't see a link to Main.KnowledgeBase anywhere. This is our main page from which everything branches out. Maybe this is because I am unfamiliar with Panels. In the end I edited the home page and manually put a link on it. I saw a few exceptions go by. Here is one: java.lang.IllegalStateException at org.apache.catalina.connector.ResponseFacade.sendRedirect(ResponseFacade.java:432) at org.securityfilter.authenticator.FormAuthenticator.showLogin(FormAuthenticator.java:230) at com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.xwiki.MyFormAuthenticator.showLogin(MyFormAuthenticator.java:55) at com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.xwiki.XWikiAuthServiceImpl.showLogin(XWikiAuthServiceImpl.java:197) at com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.xwiki.XWikiRightServiceImpl.checkAccess(XWikiRightServiceImpl.java:154) at com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.checkAccess(XWiki.java:2548) at com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.prepareDocuments(XWiki.java:3233) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiAction.execute(XWikiAction.java:128) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(RequestProcessor.java:431) Beta 2 looks great.

Virtual wiki's and groupmembership (implemented on 0.9.840 due for upgrade to 1.0b2).
by Esbach, Brandon 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hi all, Me again, this time with another groups/permission issue. On my wiki's I use "$context.xWiki.groupService.listGroupsForUser($context.user, $context.context))" to get a list of groups a user is a member of. This has worked very well up until implementing a virtual wiki setup...since implementing a virtual wiki setup, I've found the listGroupsForUser only works for the main wiki (the one pointing to xwiki database), and not for the "other" wiki's hanging on the same server. The users are definitely regarded as being in the group as a permission check works for the group (eg if only group ABC has right EDIT for a space, the user is granted the right only if they are in the group). But, the listGroupsForUser always returns no groups, even for XWiki.Admin - even though every user has at least one group.

setting up xwiki
by Edward Barrow 11 Jan '07

I'm trying to get xwiki setup and working. I am using tomcat5 and postgresql and (now) a 1.5 jdk. The basic and minimal wiki is there but: First problem, I'm getting an error when I try to import the basic pages in the default xar. This happens as soon as I click "attach this file" on the import tab in Administration. The stack trace is below. Any pointers would be welcome, many thanks, edward.

Change xwiki menu
by Sebastien Cesbron 11 Jan '07

11 Jan '07

Hi, I would like to change my xwiki right side menu (the toolbar I guess) to the one at xwiki.org. Two questions : - I've tried to create some Toolbar pages in different spaces but this does not seems to change anything : is it always the way to go with xwiki 1.0-beta2 ? - Is there a way to grab the source code of the xwiki.org toolbar ? Thanx Seb

upgrade xwiki to 1.0b2 encounter "Could not initialize main XWiki context"

Hi, we were using xwiki 0.9.840, and recently I test to update with 1.0b2 with old database. as we are using postgresql as our db backend, I need to update xwiki with database migration (which I have seen 1.0b2 supports migration), I have modified the hibernate.cfg.xml to postgresql configuration. our system is: * gentoo 2006.1 * tomcat: 5.0.27-r6 * postgresql: postgresql-8.0.8 * jdbc: postgresql-8.0-315.jdbc3.jar after start tomcat, I connect to xwiki page and get following exception: exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Error number 3201 in 3: Exception while saving document XWiki.TagClass Wrapped Exception: Could not execute JDBC batch update org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processException(RequestProcessor.java:535) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(RequestProcessor.java:433) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:236) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:414) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) com.xpn.xwiki.web.SetCharacterEncodingFilter.doFilter(SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java:121) root cause com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Error number 3201 in 3: Exception while saving document XWiki.TagClass Wrapped Exception: Could not execute JDBC batch update com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.getMainXWiki(XWiki.java:223) com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.getXWiki(XWiki.java:303) com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiAction.execute(XWikiAction.java:96) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(RequestProcessor.java:431) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:236) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:414) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) com.xpn.xwiki.web.SetCharacterEncodingFilter.doFilter(SetCharacterEncodingFilter.java:121) i believe that there are people using postgresql, is that you have experienced same error? or it's not the problem with postgresql? any help to solve this problem? best regards, muzi

Permissions/Rights assignment
by Esbach, Brandon 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

In the old Xwiki rights screen (0.9.840 style), you could type in any text as a permission type (instead of view, edit, programming, etc), this means you could use dynamic permissions instead of group looping to determine different options for certain users. This means that you do not have to loop groups (or any other object) to restrict the options. In the new xwiki rights assignment panel there is no obvious possibility to add to the permissions list (they are a scroll list, I would assume they are based on a database entry). Any chance there is a way I can manually add to this list on my local wiki for the time being?

Thank you Sergiu! That information clarified the issue for me and helps me a lot in planning. I can see from the schema and id generation algorithms that object linking on document translation level is not too simple thing to change. Maybe that’s a little too heavy an issue for me to contribute, but of curiosity: do you have plans already how to solve this? Code in SVN? In any case I’m interested of the panel and page code you mentioned so please send it to me. Thanks!

Translations are just variants of that original document. Objects are attached to a document, meaning that an object is bound to the original document. This way you can't have (for the moment) objects attached to a translation. This is bound to change in 1.1 (or later). However, you can simulate this by using (indeed) a language property. In detail: 1. You must add a StringProperty for each class you would like to be translatable, named "lang" (or any other name you like) 2. Replace doc.getObject("MyClass") with doc.getObject("MyClass", "lang", $context.language[, true]). This return an object with the "lang" property set to the current language. Of course, you can replace $context.language with a specific language. The optional true parameter stands for failover, meaning that if an object with the requested language was not found, try again without the language filter. You cannot automatically translate objects with the current skin. If you are interested, I can give you the code for a panel and a page that can be used for this.

includeTopic
by Marc Lijour 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

Hi quick question about #includeTopic 's behaviour (I am running 1252). Setup The main page contains a macro #buildPage() which takes an array. This macro calls #includeTopic() in a loop such as this: ## generating the includeTopic calls #foreach( $strand in $strandArray ) #includeTopic("${namespace}.${strand}") #end This macro is included in the main page with #includeMacros(). 2 conflicting behaviours observed 1) XWiki just started (no cache): only the first includeTopic page is rendered, the others are not 2) Once the pages (called in #includeTopic() ) are visited they display fine (I guess this is the work of the cache) Is this a normal behaviour? Any advice? At least is it possible to call programmatically the page to have it rendered in the cache? It is probably not the right way to do it.. Thanks. Marc

[ANN] XWiki 1.0 Beta 2 Released
by Vincent Massol 09 Jan '07

09 Jan '07

Hi everyone, We're happy to announce the 1.0 Beta 2 release. It's mostly a bug fix release but it also contains some new improvements such as new macros. * Lots of bugs fixed. Most of them are bugs related to the WYSIWYG editor and the new 1.0 skin. * Simplified Edit menu with only a single menu entry. This is to make it simpler for new users. It's possible to switch between Simple and Advanced from the user profile page. * New #info("This is some useful information"), #warning("Careful not to break something") and #error("You did something terrible") macros. * New #floatingbox() macro to display a floating box (aligned right by default). * __text__ is now the notation for underline * Lots of other minor improvements Full list: http://tinyurl.com/yz9ccw Thanks and enjoy -The XWiki Team ___________________________________________________________________________ D�couvrez une nouvelle fa�on d'obtenir des r�ponses � toutes vos questions !

Is there a way to get the numbered list (i.e. 1.) to continue the numbering instead of restarting if the list item is separated by some text, paragraph, etc? Thanks Duke

Object properties' translations
by petteri.karttunen＠kuopionkonservatorio.fi 08 Jan '07

08 Jan '07

I'm creating a xwiki-based system where lots of textual metadata in custom metadata objects is systematically going to be attached to pages - which are going to be counted in thousands. When I create a page translation the metadata objects come along - which is desired - but I am not able to translate the object properties for the language in question separately. I had to be able to do that too. Does that mean that I either have to create the metadata classes for every possible language and attach them to translated pages accordingly or that I for example have to add an identifying language property for those classes and attach to a page as many instances of those classes as there are translations for a page? Is there possibly a better way to accomplish this? The system I'm creating is btw going to be a translation database and in this case I would consider it much more usable if the attached objects were dynamically instantiated for the page translations in question. Otherwise 1.0b seems so far just great from this point of view! Thanks in advance for your information! Petteri

Porting from snipsnap to XWiki
by andreas.rami＠bizzons.com 08 Jan '07

08 Jan '07

Hi! I have SnipSnap (1.0b3) (snipsnap.org) running for a few months now. Is there a simple way to switch to a new installation of XWiki? Would be nice to here something about this topic, because XWiki is much better then snipsnap. Best regards Andreas Rami

Version tagging
by Lijour, Marc (EDU) 07 Jan '07

07 Jan '07

Is there a way to add a comment or some sort of tag to a version (each time we save a document) - as an option? If not it would be nice to have. The history view could display the comment/tag (if any) on another column to the right. I guess it should not be to hard to implement (the issue I would be worry of is about data migration). WDYT?

How to get data from XWiki 0.9.840 working on XWiki 1.0 Beta 1?
by Fabian Gorsler 07 Jan '07

07 Jan '07

Hi, we have a XWiki 0.9.840 instance running with Postgres 8.1 and we would like to test the new 1.0b1 release with our existing wikis. How could we transfer the data between the old version and the new? The installation docs don't describe a proper way and just copying the dump of the old data to another database and running XWiki with this db doesn't work, too. The Hibernate mappings seem to have changed. What could we do? Our wiki has grown for about half a year and copying the data manually would take really long. Does there any kind of filter exist? Nevertheless, the 1.0b1 looks really nice. You did a really great work. :) I hope I'll be able to run the 1.0-series soon. :) Best regards, Fabian.

admin rights on wikifarm
by Mark Lichman 05 Jan '07

05 Jan '07

I just created a new wiki on the wiki farm yesterday at pdd.xwiki.com and, without making any modifications to my profile, seem to have lost admin rights since yesterday. Here is what I've done: 1. registered an account on xwiki.com 2. created pdd.xwiki.com on the farm 3. registered myself on pdd.xwiki.com in order to appear in the members list for this site I believe something about this sequence caused me to loose admin access on restart. How can I restore my admin rights now? Thanks You, - Mark Lichman __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Layout of new skin in Internet Explorer
by Esbach, Brandon 04 Jan '07

04 Jan '07

Hi folks, Something that has become a bit of a problem with the new skin is how Internet Explorer interprets the main layout area. What's happening consistantly is that the last column of a sized table is being pushed partially out of the view area of the page, resulting in several words not being visible. No scroll bars appear when this happens. When the actual HTML for our table is extracted from the display, then opened outside of the wiki, it is formatting correctly as to size, even when dropped into another table (so I'm reasonably sure that the table is ok). This problem does not occur on the old version of xwiki at all. On Firefox, this works perfectly; however as I am the only one permitted to use firefox (company policy), I need to get IE working with the layout in order to release this version to my users. It is possible that the problem is buried in one of the stylesheets (perhaps a style that IE cannot interpret which firefox can, or vice-versa); any pointers or thoughts would be welcome.

User and the XWiki.XWikiUsers Object
by Mac 02 Jan '07

02 Jan '07

Hey there, new to all of this wiki stuff and I love this emerging technology. Well, to the point. I was experimenting around on my own site and playing around with the user objects. I do not think it is wise to allow newly registered users to edit thier objects, I registered a test user. Went to his User Page, edited the objects and removed the XWiki.XWikiUser object. To me this had an interesting effect. 1) The user only would get challenged for a e-mail address confirmation. 2) The user could not do anything (At least not that i found yet) Yipee good security 3) The user did not show up on the administrator's user list. Although the first 2 are great, #3 to me is a problem, unless there is another way of discovering this user? Well, when I added the XWikiUsers object back all of the user information was back (Though shouldn't it be purged when the class is removed?) Basically I am concerned with people creating accounts, removing this Object and not comming back to my website because they screwed up their account and I will only know if they take the time to e-mail me.

xwiki invalid character question
by jimmy＠comkraft.com 30 Dec '06

30 Dec '06

Hi, I sometimes get the following error in xwiki (0.9.840) when I try to browse a category (e.g. KidsCorner in the following). It is related to some invalid characters in the wiki content but I usually paste some useful content into our wiki and don't know what character is forbiddern. Is there a way for us to avoid problem like the following. It made all the pages in the category not browsable and is very inconvenient. Now what I have to do is to manually go to the postgresql database to modify some table content and it doesn't always work. Have you guys encountered similar problem and is there a better solution to fix/avoid it?

Hi, We just had the newest xwiki version installed on our machines, and it seems to be very different than the earlier version. The documentation tells you how to give rights to spaces, pages, etc but it doesn't tell you how to create the users and the groups in the first place. The old wiki had a button to create a group or user, but this wiki doesn't. How do I create users and groups? Thanks for your help. -- To Your Victory, Annika A.

Upgrading (HSQLDB)
by Marc Lijour 27 Dec '06

Hi The quickest way to upgrade a xwiki installation running on jetty+hsqldb would be to unzip and to overwrite all files under db/ with the "old ones". But does it work like that? For example, I have a 0.840 and a 0.1252. I want to move them to the latest svn. Do I lose something if I overwrite the files this way? Thank you. Marc

Possible bug in import
by Paul Armstrong 25 Dec '06

25 Dec '06

I think I've found a bug in the import system (xwiki/bin/import/XWiki/Import). XWiki: 1.0-beta-1 Java: 1.5.0_07-b03 Tomcat: 4.0.5 If Tomcat is running as an unprivileged user and I try to import an XAR file I get a stack dump. Tracing this shows the file it's trying to write to is /upload__2d1b026e_10fac18a3a1__8000_00000008.tmp As Tomcat has a working directory of /, this doesn't work so well. CATALINA_TMPDIR is set to /var/tmp so I expect this is where it should write to (this should be ${java.io.tmpdir}). Tracing through FileUploadPlugin.java, lines 128-134 have: if (tempdir != null) { fileupload.setRepositoryPath(tempdir); (new File(tempdir)).mkdirs(); } else { fileupload.setRepositoryPath("."); } so I suspect that whatever is calling loadFileList is failing to set the tempdir and it's defaulting to ".". I tried to trace this back but was unable to work out where it came from (the context stuff confuses me). Here's the stack trace printed: Error number 0 in 11: Uncaught exception Wrapped Exception: null com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 0 in 11: Uncaught exception Wrapped Exception: null at

Sporadic exceptions uploading an attachment
by Peter Flynn 22 Dec '06

22 Dec '06

We are seeing this exception pretty often while uploading attachments (but not all the time). The file is not uploaded successfully after seeing this error, but trying again right afterward usually works fine. Still, we would still like to get to the bottom of this.

[xwiki-users] accessing & altering objects/class values
by Jeff Ousley 22 Dec '06

22 Dec '06

Hello, I'm trying to do something I thought was simple, but I'm not figuring it out. I've got a page in my space called "test". Associated with that page is an object called "TestClass". TestClass has one field/property called "num1" which is of type long and currently set to 333. Now, I want to write the velocity code to simply get the value of num1, add 1 to it, and store it again in the num1 field so the next time I read it, it should have a value of 334. Can this be done? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, -jeff

Multiple Xwiki containers on same Tomcat installation
by Esbach, Brandon 22 Dec '06

22 Dec '06

Hi guys, Looks like this isn't supported anymore.. On my installation of XWiki10B1, links created using [(space).(pagename)] always generate an URL pathed to "/xwiki/bin/view/(space)/(pagename)", instead of "bin/view/(space)/(pagename)". As I cannot use multiple xwiki virtual containers (not permitted by our IT Policy), this puts me in a bit of a problem.. Any way around this without extensive reworking? Or alternitively, is there any way to change the "Home" designation for a group? So that if they are part of a specific group, they get a different "Main" space (for login, clicking on the Logo, etc).

Can you let us know which version of xwiki you downloaded? You may consider using the 1.0 beta from there: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download It includes a complete standalone intaller. Note that XWiki also contains a blog application. You can see it in action there: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/ In your case, the console displays "Could not create a DBCP pool": it means your XWiki instance cannot connect properly to the database. You should probably check that the MySQL account declared in the file $XWIKI_INSTALL/WEB-INF/classes/hibernate.cfg.xml (properties "connection.username" and "connection.password") is correct. Sending the output of Jetty log file may help. Cheers Stéphane

Internationalization

Hi all. While xwiki looks good to me in general, I was somewhat disappointed to see "CHARSET=latin1" in dump for 1.0-beta-1. I want to set up wiki in russian and wondering if/when full out of the box I18N support is planned for general availability. Can anyone comment on this? Thank you, Pavel

Admin rights
by Daniel Marre 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Hello, Waiting for some solution under Debian and having some "chidren excitation" in this Christmas period, I installed Xwiki on my Mac OS X top lab, allways with the standalone distribution to discover the tool. It runs well ... congratulation for all developpers ! It's a very nice tool. I try some editing features but I have a problem when try some Admin features with the Admin password ... what is it ? The access to some Admin Guide part are requiering also the Admin passwd .... (the configuration part for example) (this passwd is allso required on Xwiki site Admin Guide -> Configuration ) thank's you for help. Daniel. -- Daniel Marre Directeur des études du DGEI Maître de Conférences en Informatique INSA - DGEI www.insa-toulouse.fr 125 AV. de Rangueil - 31077 - Toulouse (France) Daniel.Marre(a)insa-toulouse.fr (33) 5.61.55.98.08

On-The-Fly/Generic Permission
by Esbach, Brandon 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

In version 0.9.840 there was the ability to generically add a permission as required; by putting any selected text in place of "view/edit/programming/etc". This has worked quite well for us to date on the older version. I guess the question would be, is there a way to add to the permissions list on XWiki1B1? Part2, related query: Is there a way to show a specific panel depending on your permission? For example, if the user is an administrator I'd like to show an Admin Panel; or if the user has Workflow rights I'd like to show a panel with Workflow features. While I know I can protect the content of a panel by checking certain values (permissions/etc); this would still mean that an empty panel is shown for the user.

Xwiki Beta1
by Esbach, Brandon 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Assuming now that the links are up, the file is released? I have some observations, certainly not exhaustive but from a "first look" perspective. * PDF/Printing * Fails for me on trying (Firefox 2.0.0.1; no plug-ins as yet). Says the document is invalid - this can be due to a number of factors, however my old 0.9.840 in the Production environment works fine (ruling out browser/local issues) * WYSIWYG * Doesn't seem to work right, documents become corrupt after adding any text via this method.. I noticed that there is both a "tiny_mce" and a "tiny_mce_2" folder in the Xwiki root - I seem to remember there was a bit of an issue with the one or the other, can this be the problem? * Admin user * Might be useful to put the default name+password in front of the user when they implement a blank wiki. I just assumed the password was the same; though many newer users may not. Didn't see the user account mentioned in the documentation, but then I didn't specifically search for this. * Importer * Importer works well. A bit of confusion at first as I didn't expect the blank wiki - but it's fairly user-friendly as the user gets taken to the Preferences first in a new wiki instance. * Part of the import into a new wiki is the admin user (or so it seems), basically you are connected as a guest then import as the guest user. This has two side-effects which maybe could be reworked: * The user gets a "lock" on the Preferences page as Guest, so when they login as Admin then the page is locked by default. Could be handy to have an "unlock page" tool that sets the lock flag off. * After the admin user is "loaded" into the database (and I would assume due to the permissions module getting loaded too), the guest user doing the import gets a permission error; and is required to login as Admin and restart the import. It might be more user-friendly to simply log them into the admin account at that point automatically (they're the owner of the XWiki anyway), and continue with the import (just my own thoughts, sure there could be some turmoil over how that works in the group though). * May be wrong on this, but it doesn't seem to export attachments for documents? * History/Workflow * Documents seem to start at 1.1, is there any way to make them start at a different number (eg, 1.0/0.1/etc)? The reason for this, is that some of my tools require workflow management to become version 1.0 (they are considered non-release until approved). Is it possible to reach 2.0, or will 1.99 roll into 1.1 again? * Xwiki**.war file * I usually like to remove this file after tomcat has done it's installation. When you do this however, the XWiki folder starts removing files from itself (for me anyway). Would be nice if I can point the application to another location to look for a war file, as I may have several instances of XWiki running on the same tomcat server. * "On Top" toolbar * Looks really smart on Firefox, however does not keep on top in Internet Explorer 6 (don't have access to 7 yet, so cannot test that). It's not a showstopper by any means though, but would be nice to have the two consistent (or option-based floating). * Login without the "Remember Me" * Does not happen anymore (this checkbox seems absent now), though I have since updated to Firefox2 which could be why. * Xwiki.org * Seems to cause a script error in IE6 (may happen in other versions too). Firefox works as expected. Have to say again, this release so far has been worth the wait on my end. Also, thanks to the XWiki team for their work and efforts to date, into the new year and beyond! Last but not least, Merry Christmas/Seasons Greetings to all!

New Xwiki: Remember me option
by Esbach, Brandon 19 Dec '06

19 Dec '06

Just noticed that if you don't set this option, xwiki won't log you on (well, for me anyways). Using: Firefox 1.5; default cookie options. Also: Seems the new skin does not want to initialise on my existing wiki, not sure what I need to do to enable? I have managed to change the Preferences to point to the MySkin, but am only receiving an all-text layout.

Restoring a broken XWikiSkins class
by Peter Flynn 19 Dec '06

19 Dec '06

Hey everyone, Sorry to be posting yet again, but... I seem to have broken my XWikiSkins class and am looking for a way to restore it to the out-of-box default. Can this be done easily? The story is this: I've been trying to set up a new skin for my XWiki instance, based on the default one. This has been tricky since the default skin imports a bunch of extra CSS files which are not shown in the skin-editor form that XWiki uses. I edited the XWikiSkins class to add some of these files to the display. But that didn't work as well as I'd hoped, so I wanted to delete these properties from the XWikiSkins class. Seeing nothing in the UI to do that, I tried clearing all the form fields and saving it. I got an error that property names can only be "A-Za-z0-9", which makes sense. However, it looks like something went really wrong behind the scenes. When I viewed this class again, it was missing all of the properties except for one ("Page Menu"). This seems like a serious bug in the Class Editor, but I am less concerned about that than I am about getting the skins class back to normal. So, is there any easy way to do this? Thanks again, - Peter

WYSIWYG editor often eats paragraph breaks
by Peter Flynn 19 Dec '06

19 Dec '06

I am using the new WYSIWYG editor that will be in 1.0 beta. When I add a new paragraph using the WYSIWYG editor and then save the page, the paragraph has often been merged into the preceding paragraph. For example, if I have the text: abc def ghi I place the cursor after "def" and hit enter (I've even tried hitting enter twice to create an extra blank line). Then I type "xyz." In the editor, this looks as expected: abc def xyz ghi But then when I hit Save, I see the resulting page as: abc defxyz ghi If I go back into the editor and try to correct the problem, it still happens when I save again. Has anyone else experienced this? Any luck working around it if so? Thanks, - Peter Flynn

Static snapshots of XWiki spaces
by Stephen Schaub 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

I thought I would share a tip for downloading a static HTML snapshot of an XWiki space. I've had pretty good success using wget: wget -E -r -k -p --no-parent http://myserver/xwiki/bin/view/MySpace/ When this is done, wget produces the following directory structure: \myserver \xwiki \bin \download \MySpace (attachments placed here) \view \MySpace (wiki documents here - look for index.html) \skins \default This works pretty well, except wget doesn't get all of the necessary skin images and css files. So, I copy from the xwiki installation directory: skins\default\* to the downloaded \myserver\xwiki\skins\default folder, and things usually work pretty well. Hope this is useful to others.

"Inline" mode
by Peter Flynn 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi everyone, I'm wondering about the "inline" view of pages -- i.e. when the URL contains "xwiki/bin/inline". There are certain pages on my wiki where the "Edit this Page" link sporadically redirects to this view rather than the usual "xwiki/bin/edit" URL. Does anyone know why this might be? Thanks, - Peter

WYSIWYG editor deletes content
by Peter Flynn 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi everyone, We're having some major issues with the WYSIWYG editor deleting content that it doesn't understand when you save a page. For example, in order to link to an image on another page, we add something like this to the code: <img src="$xwiki.getAttachmentURL('MyPage','my-image')" /> That works great, until you edit this page using the WYSIWYG editor. Savings your changes just deletes the whole tag. The page basically cannot be edited (other than as raw code) once it links to an image this way. We have the same issue with the <form> code suggested in the FAQ for document templates - you can't edit the template page in WYSIWYG mode anymore because if you do, it'll delete the form. Is there any way around this? - Peter

Avoiding spaces in page names
by Peter Flynn 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Another issue, albeit more minor: Is there a way to have XWiki not insert spaces into the page name when there is a capitalization change? For example, we have a page titled "iTunes", but all the links to this page are rendered as "i Tunes". I've edited the iTunes page and manually typed "iTunes" into the Title field on the form, but this did not help. We can always manually change all the links to "[iTunes>iTunes]"... but it seems like there should be a way to make XWiki respect the title that I entered. Any ideas? Thanks, - Peter

Xwiki RSS
by Esbach, Brandon 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi Xwiki.. I have been toying about with the RSS macro on Xwiki; and it looks like the macro only talks to one channel. Is this a limitation of Xwiki, or the ROME plugin (if memory serves, Xwiki uses 0.6)?

Hi Peter, Sorry for answering late.. The schedule to 1.0B1 is tough.. You should actually ask your questions in the XWiki users list. Some other users and developers will help answering. The link is here http://forge.objectweb.org/mail/?group_id=170 Peter Flynn a écrit : > Great! I have been playing with the wiki today and am liking it a lot. > > I have a few questions still that I am hoping you can answer: > > 1) Locking: Whenever I begin or end editing a page, the browser locks up for about 15 seconds. It looks like there is some AJAX code on the page that makes synchronous requests (which freeze the browser) when the page loads and unloads. This seems related to locking a page during editing. Can I disable this feature, or change the requests to asynchronous, to avoid the long freezes? > Right. I've seen that.. This is the document locking and unlocking using AJAX to have unlocking when people leave pages. It should be aync at least for locking. This needs some Javascript changes in the edit template. You should submit this as a task in http://jira.xwiki.org However it should lock everything for 15 seconds. This shows either that your server is very slow or some other thing being wrong.. > 2) Macros: I'm looking for a way to insert basic boilerplate on multiple pages. E.g., on Wikipedia you can add "{{cleanup}}" to add a warning about the article needing cleanup to the top of the page. It looks like macros are XWiki's version of this, but how do I create one? > > You create macros using the velocity syntax (scipting) or using Radeox (java) A velocity macro is for example: #macro(hello $firstname $lastname) Hello $firstname $lastname #end You can then use it using #hello("Ludovic" "Dubost") (carefull no commas between variables, which is odd for developers) You can write your macros in the page that use it or in a page that you include using #includeMacros("XWiki.MyMacros") or in /template/macros.vm (needs a restart) or another macro file you specify in WEB-INF/velocity.properties There is a neat feature which we need to document more which allows to transform radeox syntax on the fly to velocity and allow macros to appear in the WYSWIYG Editor (the last button of the toolbar) In the XWiki Preferences / Advanced section you should add hello=velocity:hello:first_name=First name|last_name=Last name (not 100% sure about that.. you should use it when it's properly documented. > 3) Email notifications: I noticed a blank FAQ entry (http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Doc/CommentNotifierUnChangementAuWikiAU…) about the ability to send an email notification when a page changes ("watching" a page). Does this feature exist? > > No we only have RSS right now > 4) Styles: Is there a way to add a new paragraph style that will appear in the WYSIWYG editor's dropdown? > Not yet.. we are working on adding a style macro {style:type=div|class=mystyle} Text {style} and will then allow a predefined list of styles to appear in a new drop down > 5) "What links here": http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-20 says this feature can now be enabled via Preferences, but I don't see it anywhere.

XWiki.com Upgrade
by Ludovic Dubost 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hi all, XWiki.com has been upgraded to the latest SVN version (which is close to 1.0B1). This upgrade was partly forces upon us because of incompabilities between certain wikis running the most recent version and others running an older one. Due to changes to the class definition system, this was not possible anymore. Let us know if you see any problems on the hosted wikis This also means that when an XWiki is upgraded to 1.0B1 it will be be downgradable. This means admins need to be carefull and backup the database.

Hi all, i recently adapted xwiki to the needs of my company. As the design issues were more complicated (also added some ajax stuff to reload attachments/history/comments list when changing tabs, added a breadcrumb plugin,... ) i choose to create my own xwiki templates and put it into a own templates directory (templates_porsche). My question is whether it is possible to make the templates directory configurable via xwiki.cfg file? As it is now i have to change the "templates" strings whitin the java code manually com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki.pareTemplate() com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiServletURLFactory.createTemplateURL() Did anyone else come across the same problem? greetings, kris

Online FAQ?
by Peter Flynn 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Btw, a lot of the online reference material on XWiki seems to have suddenly gone missing. For example, the document http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Doc/UserInterface links to http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Doc/HowToCreateASkin and http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Doc/WhatIsASpace, but both of these pages are blank. The page http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Doc/XWikiSkins is almost blank, and I could swear it was not like that last week. And the same goes for the FAQ list itself, which used to be available at http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Doc/WebHome. Is something wrong with the server? Or have these resources been moved? Thanks once again, - Peter Flynn

Is there a way to escape XWiki syntax?
by Peter Flynn 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Hi, I'm new at this. I've been trying to figure out a way to write some example wiki pages that explain the XWiki syntax better to my users. However, the XWiki engine always seems to want to interpret the markup rather than showing it as a literal. For example, if I do: {code} 1.1 This is how to create a heading {code} The "1.1" is not visible on the page, and the heading is rendered fully styled. This also happens with markup such as "#includeTopic". You can see an example of the problem here as well: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/TuTAddSearch Is there any way to really make XWiki ignore a block of text? Thanks in advance, - Peter Flynn

Adding users to a group
by Mylonas, Elli 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

Sorry to post so soon on same problem, but I haven't solved it yet. I would like to add users to my wiki who are registered as members of xwiki.org. The reason for this is to allow them to log in once, and then be able to edit all the wikis of which they are members, instead of remembering a new login for each wiki. I am entering the users in the Group Object as xwiki:XWiki.loginName where the loginName is the user's login at xwiki.org. I found the FAQ on creating a new group HowDoICreateNewGroups, and followed the instructions. I now have a new group, and have successfully added users to it. Then I go to the Preferences page, and make a new rights rule that gives privileges to the new group. For ex. I select the group, select view/edit and Allow. This doesn't work. The user cannot log into the wiki. I think the problem may be the syntax I am using for the user name. Can someone give me the correct syntax? Is there some other way to do this? Finally, perhaps this isn't possible, and I should just make the users log into more than one wiki? thanks, --elli

How to modify page rights with Velocity
by Yan Rocheteau 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

Hello, I need to automatically set rights for a page with Velocity I have some ideas on the way to do this : get the list of rights already set for the page, check/modify them and eventually add more rights entries if necessary. The code will be something like : #set($rightindex=0) #set($rightsobjectslist=$doc.getObjects("XWiki.XWikiRights")) #foreach($rightsobject in $rightsobjectslist) current rights n°$rightindex are : groups=$rightsobject.groups ,users=$rightsobject.users , levels=$rightsobject.levels , allow=$rightsobject.allow; ##check if rights_0 exists and modify it #if ($rightindex==0) #set($userobject=$xwiki.getDocument("XWiki.aXWikiUser").getObject("XWiki.XWi kiUsers",0)) #set($rightsobject.users=$userobject.name) modified users for rights_0 = $rightsobject.users (...) #end ##check if rights_1 exists and modify it #if ($rightindex==1) (...) #end #set($rightindex=$rightindex+1) #end #if($rightsobjectslist.size==1) ## create missing rights #end $doc.saveDocument() My problem with this code is that the value of $rightsobject.users doesn't change ! It is "XWiki.XWikiGuest" before the #set($rightsobject.users=...) and it still is "XWiki.XWikiGuest" after ( instead of "XWiki.aXWikiUser" ) If somebody can help, it would be nice Thanks Yan

question about xwiki database schema change
