[xwiki-users] failed restarts
by Paul Libbrecht 23 Aug '12

23 Aug '12

Hello dear XWikiers, one of the issues of XWiki which keeps coming up since many many versions are "failed restarts". They manifest themselves as a web-application that misses something I could never identify and starts triggering lack of authorizations. They tend to fairly randomly. Rather more rarely on fast machines. About 5% of the times on our T2000. However, since i am in a clustered situation, it happens considerably more frequently, almost 90%. How can I debug these? I see nothing suspicious in the console and the web line manifests itself as follows: thanks for hints.

When checking MeetingParticipantSuggest I get following error : /This page contains the following errors: error on line 329 at column 6: XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error./ Anybody who encountered similar Problems?

[xwiki-users] HOW TO SET IMPORTED SKIN
by Peter 23 Aug '12

23 Aug '12

Hi XWiki-Community! First I have no access to the server side of my XWiki-Installation, but I want to change the skin. I imported a skin via XAR-File. http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Lyrebird+Skin Then I have a new space with three pages. And what now? What do I need to change in Administration/Presentation? Do I need to add a new Page and add a Skin-Object to it? I do not know how to proceed. Thanx for all help Peter -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/HOW-TO-SET-IMPORTED-SKIN-tp7581004.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Show announcement on XWiki
by Hamster 22 Aug '12

22 Aug '12

I am interested in how others are making annoucements on their XWiki. For example: let's say that there's maintenance scheduled to the network, and that certain drives are unavailable for some period of time. Or that email is unavailable for a certain period of time? Right now, we are using email as our main method of communication, but I would like to eliminate email saying "We are out of water from 10:00 till 13:00"...last friday!!! Everybody is busy reading email about things which happened at some time in the past :-) How can that announcement be made "visible" on the mainpage of our XWiki? We could just edit the XWiki mainpage, show the annoucement and remove it afterwards (but that's not so sophisticated) What other options are available? I was thinking about the Blog Application, where the annoucement will be made. Annoucements could be a seperate category in the Blog. The XWiki mainpage should only show Blog entries of a specific category. Best thing would be if we could "publish" the Blog entry at a certain time (this is possible), and "unpublish" the Blog entry after the maintenance has been completed (not yet possible in an automated fashion, but you can "hide" a blog entry by hand). So, what methods do you guys using? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Show-announcement-on-XWiki-tp7580979.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

We want to show video on our wikipage. The only requirement: -The source is located on our server We can't make use of the " http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Video+Macro Video Macro ", because it only displays video from YouTube, DailyMotion or GoogleVideo We can't make use of the " http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/JWPlayer+Macro JWPlayer Macro ", because we can't attach the video's to the wikipage (our video's are very large in filesiz) Any suggestions for alternatives? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Video-on-Wikipage-tp7580923.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] WYSIWYG editor + Authentication server
by Sergio Carrasco 20 Aug '12

20 Aug '12

Hi We have Xwiki installed in our servers, and we found this problem. When we access to our wiki throught our authentication server (running IBM Tivoli Access Manager) the WYSIWYG editor doesn't work. Everytime we select it, it opens the 'Source' editor instead. But if we enter our Wiki directly (without the authentication server) the WYSIWYG editor works fine. Is there any special requeriment to use an authentication server with Xwiki? Thanks in advance.

[xwiki-users] PlandUML configuration issue
by Eugen Colesnicov 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

I am trying to configure PlantUML to work with local Graphviz server. My environment - Linux Mint Debian (last stable), MySQL, Tomcat, XWiki 4.1.3. XWiki installed from standart xwiki deb-packages. No any customization on OS or XWiki. Empty base (only installed standart wiki-pages). According to PlantUML macros installation guide, I installed Graphviz, and deleted path to external graphviz server. Also I added GRAPHVIZ_DOT to system variable (added export GRAPHVIZ_DOT="/usr/bin/dot" to /etc/profile). But when I opening test page http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/PlantUMLMacro I have got an error: Dot executable is /usr/bin/dot Dot version: dot - graphviz version ... java.io.FileNotDoundExeption: testdottmp42.dot (Permission denied) ... I checked - dot executable exists in /usr/bin/. Also I checked environment variables with comand env - all is ok, GRAPHVIZ_DOT variable exists and give correct path. Also, I tried to give full permissions for /usr/bin/ and dot executable - any user/group can read / write / execute it. Also I tried to change tomcat parameters: TOMCAT6_USER=root and TOMCAT6_GROUP=root for the starting tomcat as root (it is not good for security reason but for testing is ok). As a result - same situation, same error. What is the problem and how I is possible correct it? Thanks beforehand!

[xwiki-users] Converting Xwiki v1.4.1 syntax to xhtml
by victor eberechi 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

Hi Everyone, I am currently working with Xwiki v1.4.1 and I want to convert its syntax to xhtml. I have looked at this page http://rendering.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted and it has a few points. 1) Is this possible with large chunk of Xwiki v1.4.1 data? 2) Just before the description on how to use Maven, it says; "Note that not only you need the JARs mentioned above but you also need all the transitive dependencies required by those JARs." Where do I get these transitive dependencies? 3) Which of the approaches as described in the link (Using Maven or Using the XWiki Rendering Standalone JAR) is easy to use? 4) Are there more documentation like a tutorial on using these 2 approaches other that the one on this link? Thanks, -- Victor Eberechi IBM Software Developer
