I know xwiki can import various kinds of data one at a time per
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/Imports. Here is my more
complex scenario.
We have been adding text files, or doc files, to a windows file system set
of folders. The normal pattern has been something like this:
*-dir root*
--*dir acronis backup*
---*dir 20150101 install on server01*
----text file somename.txt
---*dir 20150520 update to version x.x*
----text file re.txt
----image screenshot01.png
--*dir backblaze*
---*dir 20140105 install and configure*
----txt file re.txt
etc
So, there are topic areas at the highest level (acronis, backblaze) and
normally under them folders named for the date (20150101) with a title
(install on server01). Inside the folder is a mix of text files, word
documents, and images.
I would use the top level folder as a category or topic area inside xwiki.
I would use the date as a data point on the wiki entry, to make sure I can
sort by date of occurrance.
The text or word files are often named re.txt. Sometimes they have a more
distinctive name, but mostly the file name is not a viable name for a wiki
entry. The second part of the folder name would be better for that.
So, no one needs to parse all the details of our existing folder/file hive.
I realize there is no way that any wiki system can simply import and
translate that into something that would be presentable inside the wiki. I
expect to write some code (non-php, I'd probably use vb) that traverses the
hive that we have, and writes elements of what it finds into an xml file or
something else that can otherwise be pulled into xwiki. the text and doc
files would be converted into pages and the images...I'm not familiar enough
with xwiki to know if it'd be best to leave those files in place on the disk
and simply references them in the related wiki entry, or better to move them
into the wiki system somehow.
I could even write the wiki entries directly into the database. xwiki has an
api, possibly that would be useful for this purpose?
Probably an issue that has been encountered many times in the past. I'd
appreciate any tips and or pointers to articles about this.

Greetings,
I am trying to install XWiki 8.4.3 in Tomcat 9.0.0.M15.
The instructions at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMySQL say :
mysql -u root -e "grant all privileges on *.* to xwiki@localhost identified by 'xwiki'"
This was failing for me with a message about password complexity until I said, in mysql, "uninstall plugin validate_password;"
Apologies if this has already been raised here; I don't see a way to search the archives yet.
Thanks
Doug

Greetings,
Another one of these. A Java stacktrace looking very very much like the one reported Aug 10 2016 by Tom Neumann on the Forum, http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Forum
However, his error was at line 233 of hibernate.cfg.xml, whereas mine is at line 244:
Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 244; columnNumber: 21; The content of element type "session-factory" must match "(property*,mapping*,(class-cache|collection-cache)*,event*,listener*)".
The thing is, the file is only 245 lines long. I don't see the error. I have commented out the hsqldb section at line 90. I have uncommented the MySQL section by moving the closing comment from line 138 to line 124.
Can anyone see what I've done wrong? Many thanks-

<property name="dbcp.maxWaitMillis">30000</property>
<property name="connection.provider_class">com.xpn.xwiki.store.DBCPConnectionProvider</property>
<!-- Setting "dbcp.poolPreparedStatements" to true and "dbcp.maxOpenPreparedStatements" will tell DBCP to cache
Prepared Statements (it's off by default). Note that for backward compatibility the "dbcp.ps.maxActive" is also
supported and when set it'll set "dbcp.poolPreparedStatements" to true and "dbcp.maxOpenPreparedStatements" to
value of "dbcp.ps.maxActive".
Note 1: When using HSQLDB for example, it's important to NOT cache prepared statements because HSQLDB
Prepared Statements (PS) contain the schema on which they were initially created and thus when switching
schema if the same PS is reused it'll execute on the wrong schema! Since HSQLDB does internally cache
prepared statement there's no performance loss by not caching Prepared Statements at the DBCP level.
See http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1740.
Thus we recommend not turning on this configuration for HSQLDB unless you know what you're doing :)
Note 2: The same applies to PostGreSQL.

Hi All,
I am importing .XAR file which has exported from my older xwiki version. I am importing it to Xwiki 8.2.1 and it is breaking for >XAR size more than specified limit.
Please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Piyush
Dear devs,
over the past few months we have moved over to using xwiki as a replacement for your old sharepoint and mediawiki servers. Meanwhile we have accumulated a list of problems and questions we are unable to solve. Some of which open JIRA bugs might already exist.
In my opinion this mailinglist is not suitable for this many questions (needs attachments, screenshots). How may we proceed? Should we create a jira entry for every issue?
An extract of some problems (now running 8.4.3):
- PDF Export: The pdf misses some elements of the page, for example display of info/warn/error marcros (see your sandbox page info and warning macro examples) and other stuff. Layout has big issues (images cut off, Tables cut off)
- Multipage PDF Export: Pdf export collection extension is broken, MultipagePdfExport Space Export extension too.
- No image lightbox by default, unclear how to implement it in the wysiwyg editor
- Document tree is really cumbersome for normal users (we use currently use some velocity to show children), new children macro insufficient (shows translations and attachment)
- DocumentTree Macro "finder" does not work correctly (finds only some pages?)
As for just "questions", should be ask each one of them in an separate mail here on the list?
Thank you very much,
Mario
