[xwiki-users] Large XAR Import: Suppress "Imported from XAR" history entry when importing as backup?
by Reto Hotz 28 Dec '11

28 Dec '11

Hi, We use Large XAR Import (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Large+XAR+Import) to migrate from one database to another. With options: "Import all" and "Overwrite with version" This works all fine, but I noticed that on every imported page, there is a new history entry "Imported from XAR" and also the last modification date of the imported page is set to the import date. Is there a way to suppress these history entry and the last modification date? So that the imported page (including history) looks exactly as it did on the other system, where it was exported? Thanks. Reto

[xwiki-users] Tomcat and /xwiki path
by Haru Mamburu 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

Hi, All Recently I had to deploy XWiki under Centos. As a brand new task for me it required tonns of documentation to dig in. Finally I managed to set up: Centos + MySQL + Tomcat 7 + nginx. Everything is fine besides some Tomcat's behaviour. - localhost:8080 or localhost:8080/ shows ROOT application - localhost:8080/xwiki shows XWiki application as desired. Fine. - if nginx redirects required requests from 80 port to localhost:8080/xwiki we obtain wrong links, because /xwiki automatically is added to requested string. Works fine only first request to e.g. "mydomain.com". So, next step is to set XWiki application as DAFAULT application in Tomcat, so localhost:8080 will call XWiki by default. Googling gave me several complicated solutions with redirect and two almost clear solutions with Tomcat configuration: - Deploy XWiki in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT After this nginx can easily proxy all requests like "mydomain.com" on 80 port to localhost:8080 - Deploy XWiki in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/xwiki Then add Following string in Host section in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml : <Context path="" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/xwiki"/> I tried second way, it works fine, nginx redirects all "mydomain.com" requests to localhost:8080 correctly, BUT all URLs from required, e.g, localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main become localhost:8080/bin/view/Main So, we miss /xwiki in URL. As for me, "xwikiless" URLs solution looks fine, BUT as far as I remember, somebody from developers' team pointed out in mailing lists some time ago, that /xwiki in URL could be necessary in some cases. (??) The questions are: 1. Is it crucial for XWiki and/or some XWiki applications to eat shorten URL on Tomcat's level? Will it affect, for example, on virtual wiki mapping for URLs based addresses like http://myfarm.net/xwiki/wiki/wikiname/? 2. Should we change anything in XWiki configuration files to force it working with such URLs? OR, the best way to put ${catalina.home}/webapps/ROOT/Web-inf/web.xml with redirect information as it is done e.g. in standalone XWiki for Windows? From other side, I also found an opinions on forums, that redirect method is not the best solution for search engines robots. So, I got lost a bit :-) Kindly ask you to clarify this tricky subject in order to avoid unnecessary errors in the future. On finding right, community approved solution(s), I will amend documentation accordingly. Thanks in advance, Dmitry Bakbardin

[xwiki-users] Some queries regardings how right management works in XWiki?
by mohit gupta 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

At link http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Access+Rightsit is given that 1) Right can be set at the page level. :- For example it is given that , View right can be set at the page level. But do not see any way for setting the right at page level( i can see how to set it at space level but not at page level ). i am working xwiki-enterprise-web-3.2.war and xwiki-enterprise-wiki-3.2.xar 2)Checking order for View rights are given as page > space > wiki. What my understanding from this is if we have given view rights to Group A For Space A at space A level but left the view Rights check box as blank for the same group at Wiki adminstration level, Then Group A user should be able to view and search the Space A content on the page we see just after login , as permission at at wiki level are overriden bt permissions at space. But this behaviour does not happens. It happens only when Group A has view rights at both level i.e at wiki administration level and space level. *Not getting what does checking order means here?*

[xwiki-users] Does class sheet effect on translation page?
by Chi-Yi Liao 25 Dec '11

25 Dec '11

My steps as below: 1. Create a data type CarClass. (lang=en) 2. Create class sheets and bind it. (lang=en) 3. Add FordPage. (lang=en) 4. Add a CarClass object to the page. And then xwiki can render html of FordPage as sheet content correctly. After that, I create a translation document of FordPage (lang=zh_TW). I found that xwiki would not render the sheet content when I visit FordPage as lang=zh_TW. It just render the content of FordPage(lang=zh_TW). How to make xwiki render sheet content correctly?

[xwiki-users] copying WebPreferences from space to space
by Eugen Colesnicov 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hi everybody! I need to setup preferences of a space (created by my code). I can create WebPreferences page and after this - add related object, when fill in properties ... But, is it possible to use $xwiki.copy(oldSpace.WebPreferences, newSpace.WebPreferences)? In fact, I have a "typical" WebPreferences, and I want to simple make a copy of it. I tried $xwiki.copy(typicalSpace.WebPreferences, newSpace.WebPreferences), page created, but unfortunatelly, properties of XWiki.XWikiPreferences doesn't fill in (object, attached in a page - exists). Whats may be a problem? Or maybe in this situation (WebPreferences - is a special page) - I shouldn't use $xwiki.copy method? -- Thanks beforehand!

[xwiki-users] Issues/behaviour i am seeing on xwiki during implementation of Rights management on UI
by mohit gupta 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

I have two intentions for my web application which i am trying to integerate with xwiki. Basically both these intentions are related to right management on specific space area on xwiki.These are:- *Intention1:-* My intention is if an user belongs to particular organisation say Accenture he should be able to admin,search,edit,view,delete only that organization space(provided he is admin user for that organisation) otherwise he should not be able to do any operation (not even search and view) on any other space *What I Did for to achieve above* :- I as admin created AccentureAdminUser and AccentureAdminUserGroup . Now i added AccentureAdminUser under AccentureAdminUserGroup. Also I created the space for this organization with Name AccentureAdminSpace. Lets come to Rights Management. As there are two level of rights i.e at Wiki level and Space level. AT Wiki Level:- I gave only view rights to AccentureAdminUserGroup AT Space Level:- I gave all possible rights to AccentureAdminUserGroup for AccentureAdminSpace Now when i log in with AccentureAdminUser credentials, i do not see AccentureSpace space on a page just after log in and also i am not able to search any content(space or page) for this AccentureAdminSpace . Not Getting Why? Do i need to give any other Right too? *Intention2:- *My intention is if an user belongs to particular organisation and he is just a registered user but not admin user for that organization say Accenture he should be able to only view and search that organization spacevotherwise he should not be able to do any operation (not even search and view) on any other space *What I Did for to achieve above* :- I as admin created AccentureUser and AccentureUserGroup . Now i added AccentureUser under AccentureUserGroup. Also I created the space for this organization with Name AccentureSpace. Lets come to Rights Management. As there are two level of rights i.e at Wiki level and Space level. AT Wiki Level:- I gave only view rights to AccentureUserGroup AT Space Level:- I gave only view rights to AccentureUserGroup for AccentureSpace Now when i log in with AccentureUser credentials, i can see AccentureSpace space on a page just after log in but i am not able to search any content(space or page) for this AccentureSpace . Not Getting Why? Do i need to give any other Right too for search? I would be grateful if somebody can provide some insight about above issues on right management.Already I have gone thru below links but did not get through the issues http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/RightsManagement right management http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Access+Rights access and rights Thanks in advance.
