[xwiki-users] Documents and classes design question
by Andriy Vovchyna 02 Oct '10

02 Oct '10

Hi! We are planning to introduce "Documents" that will have a set of additional attributes besides Content as regular xwiki page has. For example our "Document" will contain a) Name b) Content c) State d) Rating Questions are about proper attributes distribution between xwiki page and object (instance of additional xwiki class will be designed) Currently we see two reasonable ways. In both cases Name will be name of page where our "Document" "stored". 1) Content in page * Content is stored in a page content * State and Rating are attributes of some class (e.g. OurDocClass), stored as an object on this page. 2) Content in class * Content, State and Rating are attributes of some class * Page is just to display (may edit) properties (including Content) of the object "attached" to particular page I prefer to use first way, but there we have a dispute in our implementation team. Questions: a) What way is preferable? b) What benefits and disadvantages of using #1 ? c) Are there possible some performance issues if we store bulky content text in object property instead of page content? I suppose in case #2 we can meet inconvenience with powerful using of other xwiki functionality which we are planning to use, such as Lucene Searching, Document Locking, Versioning, Including of page etc. It will be nice to get recommendations or references to some staff on xwiki.org. Thank you, Andriy

[xwiki-users] attachments changing into 0 byte files
by Kelly Lakas 01 Oct '10

01 Oct '10

Hi - I am using XWiki Enterprise 2.0-milestone-1.21570. I am attaching files that are between 1-10 MB into the wiki, and when I check it right after upload and attach, the file downloads properly. However, later on, like the next day, I get an error when clicking on the link "no template exist". I try to click the link again and the doc downloads, but it is 0 bytes. I did some searching through the mailing list archives, and saw a note about increasing the max_packet_size in MySQL. Our default size is 16mb. Is there anything else we need to check or do to make sure the attachments continue to exist properly? Beyond upgrading, that is.

[xwiki-users] Command line deployment of XAR archives
by Max 01 Oct '10

01 Oct '10

Hi all, I need to import upgraded XAR archives in xwiki on many Linux servers running an integrated system we made with liferay, zimbra, alfresco and of course xwiki. Importing them via web interface it is quite time comsuming and web ports are not always easily reachable. I looked for a way to import the XARs from command line but i haven't figured out how to do that, could you suggest me how to do that? I think I can't reach my goal with shell scripting, xwiki preferences/import page scraping and curl posting because authentication is centrally managed by CAS and it needs client-side javascript to succeed. I could use a method like the one described at: http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Snippets/LargeXARImportScriptSnippet by defining a local directory on the server where to deploy the XARs and then running a macro that gets the file list and imports them, but doing all from the shell would be better. Any help would be very appreciated, thanks in advance! Ciao, Max

[xwiki-users] OpenOffice Importer AdminSheet 'Inadequate priviledges'
by afra 30 Sep '10

30 Sep '10

Hi guys, somehow I'm not able to resolve the administration error regarding the 'Inadequate priviledges' when trying to restart the OpenOffice Server over the AdminSheet. OpenOffice Import works fine on my windows machine. There is no problem with either an internal or externally managed instance. Still I cannot seem to get rid of the priviledges statement when trying to restart the server through the admin interface. I already tried saving the XWiki.OfficeImporterAdmin with and without programming rights but it still does not resolve the error whilst trying to use restart over the XWiki.AdminSheet. There is no talk of any 'Inadequate priviledges' when trying to restart the server directly in the XWiki.OfficeImporterAdmin page. This works fine and the logs state this as well. Is there something I'm overlooking here or is this a known bug? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/OpenOffice-Importer-AdminSheet-Inadequate… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
