[xwiki-users] xwiki as root webapp
by Eugen Colesnicov 11 Sep '12

11 Sep '12

I installed xwiki via devian-package. All is working, but I want to configure xwiki as root webapp. I am not a specialist in this (configuring tomcat) ... How I can do this especially in situation, when was used debian package (with not standart path-s). For example, xwiki app didn't placed in tomcat/webapps ... I founded file \etc\xwiki\xwiki-tomcat.xml with this content: <Context path="/xwiki" docBase="/usr/lib/xwiki" debug="0" privileged="true" allowLinking="true" crossContext="true"> <Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext" allowLinking="true" /> </Context> I tried to change path="/xwiki" with path="/" or path="/ROOT" - but no any changes in a realty (of course after restarting tomcat) - xwiki opened with path localhost://8080/xwiki ... Maybe need another modifications? -- Thanks beforehand Eugen Colesnicov -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/xwiki-as-root-webapp-tp7581242.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] xwiki tomcat application context in Debian package contains invalid attribute
by Adrian Fita 11 Sep '12

11 Sep '12

Hi. I installed tomcat7 and xwiki on a Ubuntu 12.04 following the instructions from here: [1]. All is working great, but I noticed in the catalina.out log a small warning: WARNING: [SetContextPropertiesRule]{Context} Setting property 'debug' to '0' did not find a matching property. 1. http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationViaAPT I looked in /etc/tomcat7/Catalina/localhost/xwiki.xml and the "<Context" definition contains the debug="0" atribute, which, according to the tomcat7's (and tomcat6's for that matter) documentation does not exist for this tag [2], [3]. 2. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/context.html 3. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html After I removed debug="0" from the context definition, I didn't got that warning anymore. I think you should take this into consideration for the future update of the packages. Regards, -- Fita Adrian

[xwiki-users] upgrade from 3.5 to 4.1.1 "LDAP service is not available. Please verify your installation."
by shouldbe q931 10 Sep '12

upgrading from 3.5 on tomcat6 with mysql and LDAP auth against AD OS is Ubuntu 10.0.4 only "customisation" was in hibernate.cfg.xml for database and xwiki.cfg for LDAP and lucene path backed up database downloaded and unzipped new war file stopped tomcat moved webapps/xwiki to a backup location put the new xwiki in webapps/xwiki edited hibernate.cfg.xml: xwiki.cfg and xwiki.properties to match previous removed the LDAP config apart from xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl xwiki.authentication.ldap=1 started up tomcat logged in as local admin imported new admin.xar imported all of it, (well I'd upgraded this install quite a few times and wanted a "clean sheet") changed admin user password changed rights to prevent unregistered users imported the new ldap.xar go to setup LDAP get error "LDAP service is not available. Please verify your installation." logout as local admin login as superadmin and get same errror documentation here http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/LDAP+Application links to here http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication#HLDAPAut… which doesn't have anything specific google searches for the error don't have anything remotely useful all pages are in place and database looks good, but the lack of LDAP auth is a bit of a pain any suggestions, or should I go back to 3.5 and upgrade to 4.1.1 without the LDAP .xar ? Cheers Arne

[xwiki-users] Registration and Layout settings resetting
by Ashtar Communications 09 Sep '12

09 Sep '12

Hi, It seems that my wiki is spontaneously resetting several configuration settings, most notably the registration, email, and layout settings. I enter information like the email server, address, and port, which panels to display in the sidebar, or whether to require email verification. After a few hours, I return to the site to find that the panels are turned off, email registration is turned off and the boxes for formatting verification emails, etc are blank, and half of the email settings are cleared. There may also be other configuration options being reset that I haven't found yet. I am the only administrative user on the wiki. It's also definitely not due to vandalism - exactly the same settings disappear every time, and it has now repeated itself 4 times in the last 24 hours. I'm running XEM 4.2m2 on Tomcat with MySQL. Any help would be greatly appreciated... thanks, Aaron

It provides 30 bug fixes, mainly in the Extension Manager, including important fixes for extensions that provide components or script services (see XCOMMONS-231 andXCOMMONS-232). It also improves the large data migration introduced in 4.0, in particular to support MS-SQL, and fixes an important issue that cause the migration of annotations to be unintentionally skipped.

[xwiki-users] xwiki talks with the LDAP server for every page access
by Adrian Fita 06 Sep '12

06 Sep '12

Hi. I have an Xwiki Enterprise 3.4 installation and I'm studying the integration with LDAP. I managed to configure the authentication, I created the users and mapped the groups with the LDAP server. But I noticed that the performance dropped dramatically when using LDAP auth, in comparison with local users, specifically it takes around 10 seconds to access a page (down from <3sec). So, I started monitoring the traffic between the xwiki machine and the LDAP machine with tshark and I noticed that every time I click a link in xwiki, there is a lot of traffic with LDAP. Is there some way to improve this behaviour (I really don't understand why xwiki needs to talk with the LDAP server on every page request...)? I see that this is not a new issue [1], [2]. I also tried setting xwiki.authentication.always=0 in xwiki.cfg but I didn't notice any change (it being set to 0 by default already...). Would upgrading to the latest stable version improve the situation? 1. http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2011-April/019745.html 2. http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-2516 Thanks for your time. -- Fita Adrian
