Hi XWiki users,
In 2009 we ran a survey on xwiki.org asking you to vote on features you'd like to see implemented in the XWiki project.
2.5 years after, here's a rundown of how many of those were actually implemented and what's left to do.
Since we're finishing the XWiki Enterprise 3.x cycle (XE 3.5 will be the last release of this cycle) we're going to start deciding what the 4.x cycle will contain. The idea is to run a new survey on xwiki.org asking you again to vote on features you'd like to see. This survey should be published in a few days. I'll send another mail when it is.
So here are the results:
http://bit.ly/yjDPge
As you can see roughly 50% of the features were implemented in 2.5 years. It's both good and bad. There were a lot of features asked (close to 100). We also implemented a lot more other features that were not listed. At least you can see we're listening since a lot of features that made it were features asked! :) Of course we can always do better.
For example we missed the implementation of the multipage export even though we spent a substantial time designing it and discussing it on the list. Let's hope it can make it in the 4.x cycle now!
Feel free to let us know in this thread how you feel about what was implemented and what you'd like to see in the 4.x cycle.
Thanks a lot
-Vincent on behalf of the XWiki Development Team

Hi Richard,
it would be very helpful if you could document the symptoms you experienced
as well as the solution on the new XWiki FAQ:

Hello Everyone-
I have two basic requests that I need help on.
I have installed xwiki (war file) on Jboss app server and made LDAP
authentication for editing purposes.
(1) How can I add additional layer of security for certain pages only for a
specific LDAP sub-group (security group).
(2) What do I need to do to have the capability of importing MS Office
documents directly into Xwiki. It is error out stating Open Office Plug-in
server is not running. I do have Open Office installed and updated the
config file.
Greatly appreciate the help!
Let me explain you.
1) We have a "MyTests.TestClass" class which contains a unique field "date"
of type "date".
2) The current document have a single object of type "MyTests.TestClass".
You can set whatever you want for the value of the field "date".
3) The current document code is:
{{velocity}}
= History =
#set($revs = $doc.getRecentRevisions(10))
#foreach($rev in $revs)
#set($oldDoc = $doc.getDocumentRevision($rev))
#set($prop =
$oldDoc.getObject('MyTests.TestClass').getProperty('date').getValue())
== Rev : $rev ==
* Class: $prop.class.name
* Value : $prop
#end
= End History =
{{/velocity}}
4) Do some edit in order to have something to display in the history
5) Here are my results:
History
Rev : 17.1
Class: java.sql.Timestamp
Value : 2012-12-10 00:00:00.0
Rev : 16.1
Class: java.util.Date
Value : Mon Dec 10 00:00:00 CET 2012
Rev : 15.1
Class: java.util.Date
Value : Mon Dec 10 00:00:00 CET 2012
6) The problem is that the field "date" is a java.sql.Timestamp for the
current version but then become a java.util.Date.
Is it normal ?
Turns out all my wiki problems with disappeared attachment, scripts not
running, etc were down to partition /var running out of disk space! So moved
default locations of apache tomcat and mysql to a much bigger partition
using symbolic links to link to the new locations and now all seems well.
Should have checked the obvious (disk space) first! So if anyone else gets
strange behaviour with xwiki - check your disk space first and save yourself
a lot of time and hassle chasing down these 'problems'!

Yes its strange,
This has happened since migrating from version 2.7 to 3.2. The import of the
wiki pages via Exported xar files seemed to work ok, and the attachments are
listed at the bottom of the wiki pages, butwhen you cick on them to view the
attachments the wiki displays aa error message that the "The attachment does
not exist."
Has anyone any idea what's happened and how to fix it?
Thanks.

Richard

Hi Richard,
Are you talking about the standard Attachments tab at the bottom of a wiki
page? Does it happen all the time? You should get this only if the session
expires. See
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise
32#HCSRFpreventionisenabledbydefault
. In XWiki Enterprise 3.2 CSRF has been enabled by default. I haven't heard
any complains so far, at least not related to the attachments upload form.
Hope this helps,
Marius

Hi All,
I am having an odd issue with the panel wizard in my test and prod
instances of XWiki. The users are trying to click on "Panel Wizard" via
"Administer this Wiki" and the system spikes to 25% CPU but never yields
results. Later, they try again, another 25% CPU and no results....
ultimately they keep trying until I start getting administrative alerts
that the system is overwhelmed. To recover, I need to stop/start the
application. However, that only allows the application to function until
they do the same thing again. This is a critical task for them to add the
necessary navigation to their wiki.
Anyone had a similar experience?
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this further?
Thanks,
Chris
Thanks - turns out unregistered user weren't granted rights on the actual
page itself.

Hello Richard,
In XWiki there are 3 types of Rights/Permissions. Check
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/RightsManagement
My guess is that in the Global Rights Menu (found in Administration ->
Rights) you have selected the "Prevent unregistered users from viewing
pages, regardless of the page or space rights". You have to uncheck this box
(no check mark).
This should solve your issue

Anyone know why when I try to display the wiki webhome for the Main space
for an unregistered user the login is displayed even though the space rights
are set to allow unregistered users to be able to view anything in the Main
