[xwiki-users] XWiki migration
by kalor 21 Sep '16

21 Sep '16

Hi, I'm currently trying to upgrade my xwiki installations from 5.4.4 to 8.0 (or even later, byt currentrly struggling with 8.0). Current (5.4.4) installation have a few modifications made in base XWiki documents. We have provided the installation with our library to authenticate users from external application along with few service components etc. And now I'm loooking for best way to migrate to later(lates) version. With it I have a few issues. - Distribution Wizard is not working properly when run on server (tomcat) with our extensions and modifications provided. It displays information about component not being compatibile. There is allways a way to run a clean xwiki and migrate with Distribution Wizard but for now I would like to avoid it. - Another issue using Distribution Wizard is that not all of installation environments have access to extension repositories. - Another thing is that one of installations have huge ammount of attachments (over 100 GB) so exporting old installation and importing over new installation is not possible. Does anyone have any tips regarding XWiki migration? I will be greateful for any help, even for som words of encouragement ;) Karol -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/XWiki-migration-tp7601313.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] [ANN] LDAP extensions 9.1 have been released
by Thomas Mortagne 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Hi xwikiers, We decided to remove LDAP authenticator from XWiki Enterprise in 8.3. So I moved everything that was related to LDAP in https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/ldap. Don't worry It's still supported by the XWiki Dev team and got many improvements already. It just felt easier to maintain and reuse it in its own repository and is very easy to install with Extension Manager. I taken the occasion to "merge" the LDAP Authenticator and Trusted LDAP Authenticator so there is now only one with all the features of both authenticators plus a few bonuses. You can also use it since Wiki 7.4.x and get all the new features without upgrading. It won't conflict with the embedded one, you just indicate you want to use the new one which is fully retro-compatible. See more details on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/LDAP/ and http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/LDAP/Authenticator/. -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-users] Livetable additional elements in table fields
by D R 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Hi, Is there a way to display additional things inside a Livetable field to interact with the field value shown? For example I have a livetable showing all application documents as follows: Name | Category | User | Password | Modify Date | Actions For every entry in the User and Password columns I want to provide a button to copy the respective field value to the clipboard. How can I modify the livetable to have additional elements alongside the field value? Thanks in advance, Dennis

[xwiki-users] Problem Global User in Subwiki
by Tobias Kirchhofer 18 Sep '16

18 Sep '16

We experience a strange behaviour with version 8.2.1 which was not there with Version 7.4.2: - Subwiki (allows only global user) - Login at Home-Wiki - Navigate to Subwiki - Logout at Subwiki - Login at Subwiki Error message: You are not allowed ... - Logout - Login at Home Wiki - Works Changing "allow local user and global user" in subwiki does not change anything expect that a local user is created. The local user can login (correct permissions provided). Same configuration in 7.4.2 works as expected. How can we achieve global user login to subwikis? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Problem-Global-User-in-Subwiki-tp7601243.… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Accessing nested document in velocity
by D R 16 Sep '16

16 Sep '16

Hi guys, I'm having a hard time accessing the fields of an application (prepared via App Within Minutes) document from another document. I have those 2 documents: 1. XApp / Data / 123456789 2. Test / Testscript I try to prepare an event listener to rename new documents according to some of their fields. For example I have the field 'ddlCategory' and I want the name of all new documents of the XApp application to be "XP-<category>-DateTime". To get the doc before accessing the objects of the class I tested retrieving XApp.WebHome: #set($docRef = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', 'XApp', 'WebHome')) #set($document = $xwiki.getDocument($docRef)) "$document.getContent()" shows me the content. Now I want to get the nested Data space (where the documents are stored and which contains the livetable): #set($docRef = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', 'XApp.Data', 'WebHome')) #set($document = $xwiki.getDocument($docRef)) "$document.getContent()" is not replaced, the resulting page shows "$document.getContent()" so it can't find the XApp.Data.WebHome. In the reference I tried different things (ie "Xapp\.Data") but it also fails. So how to retrieve a nested document in velocity? Thanks in advance, Dennis

[xwiki-users] [ANN] Limits Application 1.1 has been released
by Guillaume Delhumeau 15 Sep '16

15 Sep '16

Hello. Yesterday, I announced you the availability of a new extension: the Limits Application. Since, Thomas Mortagne suggested me an idea to make it better. The UI of the application is now contained in the JAR, so it cannot be removed by mistake by an user who manipulates wiki pages. Moreover, the UI is now visible on every subwikis, without the need to install something on each of them. Also, developers will be happy because they can overwrite the default UI like any skin template! To download it or see more informations, see: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Limits+Application/#Hv… Thanks, -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project
