[xwiki-users] Problem for removing or editing Workspaces

by PUJOS Bertrand

Hi all, I am trying to get a mock-up with XWiki workspaces. I have a problem, especially to remove a workspace or to make a change in the description. Each time, the Tomcat log indicates that XWiki could not verify the user rights: When I try to delete the workspace: 2012-02-16 14:02:54,068 [https://xwiki-test.domain.local/xwiki/bin/view/WorkspaceManager/DeleteWorks…] ERROR .x.w.i.DefaultWorkspaceManager - Failed to check if user [[XWiki.superadmin, informatique]] can delete workspace [java.lang.NullPointerException]. Assuming false. When I try to edit any workspace parameter: 2012-02-16 14:14:27,686 [https://xwiki-test.domain.local/xwiki/bin/view/WorkspaceManager/UpdateWorks…] ERROR .x.w.i.DefaultWorkspaceManager - Failed to check if user [[XWiki.superadmin, informatique]] can edit workspace [java.lang.NullPointerException]. Assuming false. 2012-02-16 14:14:27,692 [https://xwiki-test.domain.local/xwiki/bin/view/WorkspaceManager/UpdateWorks…] ERROR .WorkspaceManagerScriptService - Failed to edit workspace 'informatique'. org.xwiki.workspace.WorkspaceException: Access denied for user 'XWiki.superadmin' to edit the workspace 'informatique' at org.xwiki.workspace.internal.WorkspaceManagerScriptService.editWorkspace(WorkspaceManagerScriptService.java:188) ~[xwiki-platform-workspace-api-4.0-20120215.094308-2.jar:na] 2012-02-16 14:14:28,031 [https://xwiki-test.domain.local/xwiki/wiki/informatique/admin/XWiki/XWikiPr…] ERROR .x.w.i.DefaultWorkspaceManager - Failed to check if user [[xwiki:XWiki.superadmin, informatique]] can delete workspace [java.lang.NullPointerException]. Assuming false. Problem is the same with XWiki.Admin, the owner of the workspace.Beyond that,I always thought that XWiki.superadmin always had full access, regardless of the rights settings... Do I have something wrong in my config? Any help will be welcome! Thanks. -- Bertrand PUJOS IT Department - IRCAD bertrand.pujos(a)ircad.fr +33 (0) 3 88 11 91 36

[xwiki-users] Hibernate query using in a database list property of some class

by Eugen Colesnicov

Hello everybody! I have my class, in my class I have property with type = Database List. In this property I need to write hibernate query with filter by space, but not predifined space - I need to setup filter which will be compare space of a active document (which I will edit) with space of a hibernate query result document. How I can do it? Without this filter by space my query look like this and working without problems: select otherprop.value from XWikiDocument doc, BaseObject obj, StringProperty prop, StringProperty otherprop where doc.fullName=obj.name and obj.className='MySpace.MyClass' and obj.name not like '%ClassTemplate' and prop.id.id=obj.id and prop.id.name='Prop1' and prop.value='MyValue' and obj.id=otherprop.id.id and otherprop.id.name='Prop2' order by prop.value asc, otherprop.value asc Thanks beforehand!

[xwiki-users] understanding Livetable Macro (XE 2.4.30451)

by Ricardo.Julio.Rodriguez.Fernandez＠sergas.es

Hi all! First of all, please, allow me to thank again all XWiki Team for this great framework! It could be it happens that on Sunday I'm prone to purple prose, but I do think I'll feel the same tomorrow morning! :-) Now, some doubts here... I'm not able to understand how filtering does work in Livetable Macro. For instance, I get a JSON file including a number of results following a modified getgroupmembers.vm. Here the line of getgroupmembers getting members column "member" : "$mdoc.getTranslatedDocument().title #if($hasAdmin || $isAdvancedUser) (#if($wikiname != 'local')$wikiname:#end$m)#end", and one of the items in the JSON file... { "fullname" : "XWiki.XWikiIDISC04", "prettyname" : "XWikiIDISC04 (XWiki.XWikiIDISC04)", "wikiname" : "local", "memberurl" : "/bin/XWiki/XWikiIDISC04", "docurl" : "/bin/XWiki/XWikiIDISArealNeurology", "grayed" : "false", "doc_viewable" : "true", "doc_hasadmin" : "${xwiki.hasAccessLevel('admin', $context.user, $doc)}", "member" : "Neurobiology (XWiki.XWikiIDISC04)", "member_url" : "/bin/XWiki/XWikiIDISC04", "doc_delete_url" : "/bin/XWiki/XWikiIDISArealNeurology?xpage=deletegroupmember&fullname=XWiki.XWikiIDISC04&ajax=true" } The Livetable Macro instance showing group membership reads... #set($columnOptions = { "member" : {'link': 'auto', 'type': 'text', 'displayName': 'Research groups'}, But if I use strings content in $mdoc.getTranslatedDocument().title, I get no results in the filtered database. only strings in $m (showing the fullname of the document) work fine. You could check this behaviour on your own here... http://atrium_km.idisantiago.es/bin/XWiki/XWikiIDISArealNeurology Please, why? How could I use $mdoc.getTranslatedDocument().title to filter the list?

[xwiki-users] Messages and activity stream on space dashboard: confusing

by Joris Dirks

Before I promote this to a bug or improvement request, I'd like to get your feedback on my perceived problem. I'm having some trouble understanding how messages are handles. I must admit I don't even know where messages are being stored (googling "messages xwiki" doesn't exactly provide useful results ;) I expect all messages are stored in one general storage. Example usage: 1) create space Sandbox2 2) restrict view right for space Sandbox2 3) using SpaceDashboardTemplate, create dashboard for Sandbox2.WebHome 4) post message on this dashboard using the activity gadget, without changing the "visible to everyone" Result: message is not shown on Sandbox2.WebHome dashboard message is shown on Dashboard.WebHome User (at least I) would expect the message to be shown: - on Sandbox2.WebHome dashboard, because it's written there/for this group - on Dashboard.WebHome only when user has access to space Sandbox2., with the attribution: "ExampleUser posted the message *in Sandbox2*" I expect this would change the fundamentals behind the messaging app because messages would have to be stored in a page in the space they are written in, so I propose removing the 'post message' block in the activity stream when called for a space ($aSpace != $util.null)

[xwiki-users] XWIKI to generate synchronized multilanguage documents with the help of CAT-Tools like OmegaT?

by Chynte

Dear list, I´m searching for a wiki, which allows to generate synchronized multilanguage documents. What does that mean for me? I want to define one lanuage (eg. english) as the "main" language. Every document must first be written in the main language. From this basic document we can create documents in other languages. This already works in Xwiki in a nice way. But what happens, when after a while some changes the document in the main language? I found no possibility to mark the documents in other languages as "outdated". Even more: I would like to get the information, what was changed in the main language document to be able to synch the other documents in a fast and sufficient manner. And then I would like to go one step further: There are several really good CAT (Computer Aided Translation) tools on the market. Specially OmegaT (Open Source) is my favorite tool for translation processes. So my dream: If a document in the main language was changed, I get an information about, that the documents in other languages are outdated (best would be with a number telling "how much outdated" it is). When I want to synch again one document, I choose the target language and XWiki exports all changed sentences to a CAT tool (as already said, OmegaT is my favorite). After the translation work is done in OmegaT I can import the new translated sentences at the right position in the target document in XWiki. For me, my described dream sounds like as if this will be never possible since it sounds so complicate (I´m not a programmer). I tested lot of different wikis and from what I described here, TWiki had the most (except the Workflow with OmegaT). The big problem for me is, that I found no good way to export documents from TWiki to PDF. What I found with XWiki: So XWiki is very good in exporting PDF and also can work with multilanguage documents but can´t tell me something about the state of the sychronization between two documents (and also can´t work together with OmegaT). Is my description about the features of XWiki right? Do you see a possibility to add some my wished features (maybe there are some extensions I didn´t found)? Thanks for reply Chynte

[xwiki-users] State of the XWiki Community

by Sergiu Dumitriu

Hi Community, The following message expresses my personal opinions as a member of the community, so it might not be entirely accurate. The goal is to start a discussion about how can we attract more contributors and committers to the XWiki open source project, and will address three main subjects: - the current state of the community and committers - the possibility of joining or creating a non-profit foundation to govern XWiki - the possibility of using Fundry as a way for users to fund XWiki development ----- Status of the community At the start of a new year, it's time to look a bit at the status of XWiki, the project and the community. XWiki was created by Ludovic Dubost as an open source project from the start. Later, he founded a commercial company (XWiki SAS, back then XPertNet SaRL) as a way to financially support the development of the product. It kept the project entirely open, unlike the many false open source companies that only offer a basic open source version, forcing people to buy the commercial one (the open core model), or that only release the source code while still doing behind-the-curtains development, or that almost completely ignore the outside community. See the XWiki SAS values: http://purl.org/xwiki/sas-values and manifesto: http://purl.org/xwiki/sas-manifesto The committers, elected for their merit, and not made automatically as employees of the company, always tried to maintain a healthy community and attract new contributors/committers. Thus, the XWiki software is developed not by the XWiki SAS company, but by the XWiki community. http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Community/ has a lot of information about the community, and the development process. As of January 2011, there are 16 core committers, 12 of which are XWiki SAS employees, and 3 are or were related to XWiki SAS one way or another. http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Community/HallOfFame#HCoreCommitters A big part of the development is aided by non-committer members of the community, either by providing patches, testing and reporting bugs, requesting new features, providing feedback, answering on the mailing lists, etc. As committers, we tried to listen to the community when developing the project, but as paid employees we have to also listen to the company requirements. With a limited manpower it's very hard to evolve as fast as the community would want, or in all the directions that the community wants. And we welcome any help here. The project is healthy, we have regular and frequent releases, with visible progress with each new release (see Vincent's statistics on http://massol.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Blog/XWikiIn2010 for more details). Still, I'm a little disappointed with the development speed. Lately, out of the 16 committers on average about 3-4 are actually available for platform development during a day. * How can we help speed up the growth of the community? * How can we attract more developers outside XWiki SAS? ----- Joining/forming a free software foundation One possible reason while so few people are willing to become committers could be that XWiki SAS might appear to over-control the software, and a clear non-profit foundation on top of XWiki might make it more obvious that XWiki is a true open source project, and anybody is welcome to join. XWiki SAS is a member of the OW2 consortium http://ow2.org/ , and this membership also extends a bit to the XWiki project. OW2 used to host all our infrastructure, SVN, mailing lists, downloads... Currently only the official downloads linked from the main download page are hosted on OW2 servers, as we've gradually moved parts of the development infrastructure on servers provided by XWiki SAS. While OW2 is a great home for XWiki SAS, it's mostly a company consortium, not a software development foundation. The most development help coming from OW2 consists of research projects involving both OW2 and XWiki SAS, thus the OW2 membership doesn't bring much value when it comes to code. One option is to form an XWiki non-profit Foundation, which will govern all XWiki-related software development. The main disadvantage would be that there's a risk that it won't make any difference at all, while adding the burden of more paperwork. This is where your opinion comes into play, since there's no point in doing all the hard work if the community doesn't see a clear benefit in it. The Apache Foundation has the huge disadvantage that it requires a license change, but it's a very well known home for software development, with good visibility. The Software Freedom Conservancy has been getting a lot of press recently, since several high profile projects joined it. It's got a few top-notch projects under its hood, so XWiki would be among well known projects in there. A smaller, compatible alternative is Codehaus, but I'm not convinced they would make a difference with respect to our needs. Other foundations aren't really suited for XWiki, since they either don't bring value to the community because they don't foster inter-project collaboration (SourceForge, Google Code), or don't match the project goals (FSF, GNU, Eclipse, Linux, Mozilla...). So, some questions in regard to this subject: * Is there anybody that would like contribute more / become a committer? * Do users believe that a foundation on top of XWiki will help attract more developers? Please note that this is not THE discussion about which foundation to join, just trying to see if there is a benefit in doing so. ----- Supporting code development Becoming a committer requires time, and few people can spend that time when there's no direct benefit involved. XWiki SAS employees are already being paid to work with XWiki, so they can contribute to the platform because the company benefits directly from their work. Employees of other companies that deal with XWiki do spend time contributing, but very few actually got to hang around enough to be voted as committers, although many came close, but stopped short of it. One way of supporting code development is to contact XWiki SAS and sign a contract to develop one or more features with a higher priority. An alternative, which allows to share the cost with other companies/individuals, is to collaboratively request and support feature development (crowdfunding), for example through Fundry, a new site especially designed for this. I've set up an account for XWiki at https://fundry.com/project/58-xwiki . This is also a good place to donate to the XWiki project, since there are no visible ways to financially support the project. Fundry would allow to gather financial incentives for non-employees to contribute more code, thus involving the community more in the direction the software evolves, and attracting more potential contributors. * Do you (the community) think this is a good idea and it would help? * Would you be willing to contribute/donate to the project? ----- Please provide us with your feedback, so we can advance on these topics. Thanks, -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

[xwiki-users] XWiki 3.5, error when exporting PDF with image

by Ari

I try to generate PDF from XWiki 3.5. The installation was made from scratch to XWiki 3.4, and imported the documents via XARs from XWiki 3.0.3. Then just upgraded to 3.5, with no problems. *Detailed information: * When I dig the tomcat logs, the error seems to be *c.x.x.p.i.PdfURLFactory - Failed to save image for PDF export java.io.IOException: Failed to create temporary PDF export file with prefix [pdf], suffix [.] in directory [/opt/tomcat/xwiki35/apache-tomcat-7.0.22-with-log4jpgp/work/Catalina/10.10.1.135/xwiki/Ee7wkX8p] at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfURLFa * However, there seems to be sufficient permissions: *ls -lah /opt/tomcat/xwiki35/apache-tomcat-7.0.22-with-log4jpgp/work/Catalina/10.10.1.135/xwiki/ * *drwxr-xr-x 6 tomcatxwiki35 tomcatxwiki35 4.0K Feb 22 10:47 . drwxr-xr-x 8 tomcatxwiki35 tomcatxwiki35 4.0K Feb 22 10:10 .. drwxr-xr-x 49 tomcatxwiki35 tomcatxwiki35 4.0K Feb 22 10:42 aether-repository drwxr-xr-x 2 tomcatxwiki35 tomcatxwiki35 4.0K Feb 22 10:12 charts drwxr-xr-x 2 tomcatxwiki35 tomcatxwiki35 4.0K Feb 22 10:12 svg drwxr-xr-x 3 tomcatxwiki35 tomcatxwiki35 4.0K Feb 22 10:12 xwiki.plugin.image* And there is also sufficient permissions in these directories as well.. *xwiki.cfg:xwiki.plugins.lucene.indexdir=/opt/tomcat/xwiki35/xwiki/lucene-indexdir xwiki.cfg:xwiki.work.dir=/opt/tomcat/xwiki35/xwiki/work-dir xwiki.properties:environment.permanentDirectory=/opt/tomcat/xwiki35/xwiki/persistent-data xwiki.cfg:xwiki.temp.dir=/tmp/xwiki xwiki.cfg:xwiki.tmp.dir=/tmp/xwiki * Because there are sufficient permissions I wonder why the directory /opt/tomcat/xwiki35/xwiki/work-dir/ is empty? Also, I note that the tomcat wepapps -directory has a file called .fop Is there any advises of where to find more information or how this could be fixed? With Regards, ari
