Thomas, Maybe i missed something but i did what is described in the link you provided and i have something strange. When i log with my id in the virtual wiki, i have my first name/last name displayed (so it's able to read data from the main wiki). That's ok. But the link behind this is wrong : http://mslucommunity.kbl.lu/xwiki/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/bb03545 Instead of http://mslucommunity.kbl.lu/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/bb03545 I searched in previous emails and only found a bug on a regular expression set in the xwiki.cfg but it seems to be corrected for virtual path mode > -----Message d'origine----- > De : users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:[email protected]] > De la part de Thomas Mortagne > Envoyé : mercredi 16 décembre 2009 17:31 > À : XWiki Users > Objet : Re: [xwiki-users] Authentication problems with virtual wikis > > On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 15:37, PERINAUD Christophe > <Christophe.PERINAUD(a)kbl-bank.com> wrote: > > Hello all, > > > > Our system has some problems when a user logs in the main > wiki and goes to a virtual wiki. > > It creates the Xwiki.<userId> page but not like a usual > user page.

It's planned but here, when you want to upgrade an application used in production you have to wait many weeks for validations and authorisations.

Thank you Thomas. We use virtual wikis in the path based mode (set in the xwiki.cfg if i remember good) Ok. I will try that, hoping that it will solve our problem. Because it generates many problems with right permissions to browse virtual wikis by registered users. > -----Message d'origine----- > De : users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:[email protected]] > De la part de Thomas Mortagne > Envoyé : mercredi 16 décembre 2009 17:31 > À : XWiki Users > Objet : Re: [xwiki-users] Authentication problems with virtual wikis > > On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 15:37, PERINAUD Christophe > <Christophe.PERINAUD(a)kbl-bank.com> wrote: > > Hello all, > > > > Our system has some problems when a user logs in the main > wiki and goes to a virtual wiki. > > It creates the Xwiki.<userId> page but not like a usual > user page.

[xwiki-users] Authentication problems with virtual wikis
by PERINAUD Christophe 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hello all, Our system has some problems when a user logs in the main wiki and goes to a virtual wiki. It creates the Xwiki.<userId> page but not like a usual user page. It's just a blank one. The authentication process is done using LDAP process. Also is there a way to disable the login function only on the main wiki ? If yes, what will happen if a user tries to connect on a virtual wiki and it fails ? Because when this situation occured, the user is redirected to the login page of the main wiki and not the virtual one.

"<table> <tr> <td>name</td> </tr> <tr> <td id="test">bla bla</td> </tr> </table> " Now, in another page i get the content of the page above, and i want to take the info from the td with the "id". is it possible? :confused: -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/distinct-select-divs-from-page-tp4175922p4175922.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I've been reading quite a number of online discussions about JBoss and the questions people have about its business model and the fact that they're afraid that at one point it will no longer be Open-Source. I think I can speak on behalf of XWiki SAS when I say that we believe in Open-Source and want to stay a real Open-Source company - however complex it might be at times. My personal take is that, as long that we as a company promise that all the XWiki code written by XWiki SAS will be released under the LGPL license, the project can thrive with people confident that they're contributing to real Open-Source. Ludovic has personnally committed himself to this in the past as XWiki SAS' founder and this is a policy that will continue in the future. We've been talking about this internally and the overwhelming majority of XWiki SAS employees wants the XWiki code we write to be made available under the LGPL license. I hope this answers your concerns :-) Apart from this, are there other questions and/or things that may sound worrying to you? Thanks again for the feedback - and I hope that some of your XWiki-based commercial initiatives will eventually become fruitful :-) Guillaume > Pascal > > On Tue, Dec 15, 2009 at 5:41 PM, Guillaume Lerouge <guillaume(a)xwiki.com > >wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > On Fri, Dec 4, 2009 at 3:44 PM, Vincent Massol <vincent(a)massol.net> > wrote: > > > > > Hi everyone (devs and users), > > > > > > While we have a clear governance for write access to our source > > > repository (http://dev.xwiki.org) we're missing a clear governance > > > for xwiki.org.
