Dear developers, Recently I had been checking each and every step in XWiki cyrillic management. Brief results from last to least: 1. Office integration: no way to work with cyrillic page names http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XOFFICE-252 2. Eclipse:: no way to work with cyrillic space names http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XECLIPSE-154 3. $response.sendRedirect() gives ??? instead of cyrillic letters, so some scripts become useless, Parent Page search suggest in edit mode gives ??? instead of cyrillic http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-6955 The rest works fine, or I didn't discover it yet :-)))) As far as I understand XWiki, all these bug should live somewhere in the core, maybe somewhere else also and it's not so trivial to fix it. The question is: what are priorities in XWiki development and is it planned to make cyrillic users happy to use all XWiki features available in nearest future? Thanks a lot for understanding. Kind regards. Dmitry Bakbardin

Re: [xwiki-users] Tag/baseline for wiki or space

by Crowd Covered

Thanks for hint Vincent, these options are indeed possible and I considered them (didn't know that svn integration is already available). But trick is to not break usability. So that you can just switch between "tagged" content and "trunk" without a need to overwrite "trunk" by imported XAR, or update to revision from svn, or have another server for deploying tags as this will definitely provoke conflicts. For simple user that's it: switch mode, navigate in tagged/baselined content. I guess it may not even require version control system like svn underneath if we have all history in database anyway. Is it in general possible to introduce such a feature that will for all read-only actions (view, export) provide only "tagged" content? If possible how much efforts may it need? Did someone else experience a need in such a feature for a groupware (which wiki belongs to as for me)?

[xwiki-users] Tag/baseline for wiki or space

by Crowd Covered

Hi xwiki people, Is there a possibility to have something like tags or baselines for complete wiki or particular space? What I mean is possibility to use the power of navigation between pages as usual with condition that all pages revision in this mode would belong to this "tag" or just have modification date not later than specified. I have noticed "SVN Integration (make it possible to store and edit wiki pages in SVN)" in Survey on XWiki Features ( http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures), but this topic looks obsolete as last modification was done in January 2010. Background is that my team currently uses xwiki for requirements management on a software project and it is vital to have baselines. Alternatively export to PDF/RTF could be used, but firstly it refuses to handle some of pages as is (we've created several classes with customized sheets), and secondly it would require intensive tailoring of output to get nice laconic document (exclude pages that are not relevant, make headers correct relevantly to hierarchy, etc.) Greetz, Andrey Stoliarov

Re: [xwiki-users] minimal xwiki configuration SPACES

by Scott Serr

I have created a space "Engineering". I have changed the default space in xwiki.cfg to Engineering, this works. A few questions: - Is this the best way to change the default space? - Is there a way to change the default space per group? - Can I effectively trap a group of users into one space? - I can hack the theme so the logo takes you back to Engineering instead of Main, but is this the best way?

[xwiki-users] Attachment loss after restarting tomcat

by lists＠yhmail.de

Hello everybody, I think I do have a severe problem. I created a new wiki and enabled file system storage as described here: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filesystem+Attachment+… As described here (http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Attachments) I should be able to find the attachments in /usr/share/tomcat5.5/work/storage/xwiki/?. Unfortunately they are all saved in a temp directory: /usr/share/tomcat5.5/temp/work/storage/xwiki/Main/Test_for_upload/~this/attachments After restarting tomcat all attachments seem to be gone. What have I done wrong? Do I need to change anything in the tomcat configs? Any help is appreciated, Stephanie

[xwiki-users] "Cyryllic bug" in scripting

by Haru Mamburu

Dear Users, I found bug with cyrillic letters in velocity Scripting. Does it happen only with cyrillic? http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-6955 Something similar was found in this extention http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Extract+Wikipedia+Arti… I wrote a comment to the page. Should I report it as a bug, or its not supported by XWiki development team? Cyrillic users would be unhappy if scripting has such "other languages" limitations. :-( Is it possible to fix this somehow? As to: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-6955 Same Script again. The question is: If you enter "Smith John" in the input field, script creates page "SmithJohn". Is it possible somehow to keep the space mark between Last name and first name in the page name after script? Thanks in advance Dmitry Bakbardin

[xwiki-users] Migrate to Filesystem Storage Issues

by lists＠yhmail.de

Hello, I tried to get the Filesystem attachments to work. Unfortunately, after setting the appropriate config parameters in xwiki.conf and restarting tomcat, all attachments stored in the database are not accessible any more. Therefore I tried to use the Filesystem Attachment Porter(http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filesystem+Atta…. The importer complains that there are no files to import, though. Am I missing a step here? Thank you for your help, Stephanie
