[xwiki-users] Modal window content without xwiki skin
by Ajdin Brandic 04 May '09

04 May '09

Hi I'm trying to use subModal javascript modal tool. I got it to work but my modal window that contains a simple form also contains XWiki skin (with menu etc.). Is there a way to create a page without the skin? This is similar to the style in modal window in the Admin area when editing a group for example! Is there an XWiki js modal too that can be used instead of an external tool like subModal?

[xwiki-users] Taskmanager, ToDo, ...
by Michael Beetz 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hi all, There are two (three) applications handling tasks: The "Task Manager Application" and the "(Extended) ToDo Application". AND there is a "Wanted Application" ... Work Order Management, where you can create a list of workers, and create tasks (define properties like requester dept. and name, project containing the task, date of creation, details, and notes). Assign tasks to a worker, and track hours in each task, finally close tasks. Should be able to extract simple reports, like n. of open/closed tasks, min., max. and average hours per task, listing per requester, and per worker, etc. What's the development direction of these applications? The main advantage of the "Task Manager Application" is the link to a Wiki Page. This allows making notes, adding open issues ... to a page - the local view. The global view is the central list of all open issues. The two main directions to look for open issues. Jira is a funny tool too; however I need the direct link to the Wiki page. That's what I like, the question is: What's going on? Thanks mb

Hi Sergiu, The link that is displayed is : http://IPaddr:8080/xwiki/bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin?srid=leMZxkWI I try to give you all information : My virtual Wiki has a space called PVCS. There is special rights handeling in it : - In the users tab, i changed nothing - In the groups tab, i gave the green check to all functions for a group called "PVCSAdmin", i changed nothing for the XWikiAdminGroup and for XWikiAllGroup i gave the access (green check) to View and Comment only (other function have the red stop sign) If i go to the WebHome page of the space without login, it opens the previous given link. Once logged, i can see my page. FYI, the link to the virtual wiki login page is : http://IPaddr:8080/xwiki/wiki/technicalwiki/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin?xredirec… Hope it helps -----Message d'origine----- De : users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:[email protected]] De la part de Sergiu Dumitriu Envoyé : lundi 27 avril 2009 17:06 À : XWiki Users Objet : Re: [xwiki-users] LDAP users authentication PERINAUD Christophe wrote: > Hi, > >> No, there's no reason for this.

The fact that the first time the user ended up on the main wiki is an exceptional case, which must be investigated. Ignore the normal behavior, it is working fine.

Re: [xwiki-users] Stats module configuration
by Dilipkumar Jadhav 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

Hello folks, I am sorry to revive an old question I had asked in this forum but I wanted to share this with everyone. My statistics were not working on XWiki 1.7.2 originally. Finally, I figured this out. The database was MySql ver 4.x.x. I got this legacy database to work on since XWiki was on testing mode for my organization back then. I really did not have any option in the choice of the MySql version at that point of time. I had almost given up on getting the stats to work. But in the process of setting up a test XWiki I installed MySql 5.4. And the stats module worked !!! Guess, I missed something in the XWiki install guides or maybe the version compatibility (for database & app servers) is not mentioned in the install guides. My most sincere thanks to Sergiu & Thomas who took the time to answer my questions when this thread was active. Thank you everyone...

[xwiki-users] Hide comments for only a certain group?
by Kelly Lakas 29 Apr '09

29 Apr '09

Hi - 1. Vincent, Thanks for answering my previous question on macros. 2. I have a new question on comments. I know I can prevent groups from entering comments, and I know I can hide the comment section completely as well. I was wondering if there is a way to hide comments (both view and edit) from one group, but allow view and edit and view only for other groups. I've done some searching but haven't turned up if that's possibly yet.

[xwiki-users] Problems accessing Wiki Preferences after upgrading from version 1.2 rc3 to 1.8.2
by Cheong Chung Onn 29 Apr '09

29 Apr '09

Hi, I tried to upgrade xwiki enterprise from version 1.2 rc3 to 1.8.2 and it was by no means an easy task. The good thing is xwiki is very robust and I managed to recover most of it except the wiki preference. I would appreciate if someone could help me get the last piece going. Note: I have imported xwiki Application Adminstration xar. And when i select the Panel Wizard icon, i get the following messages from the console [WARNING] Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.getHashMap] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@21,28 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.getArrayList] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@23,39 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.getHashMap] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@54,29 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.getHashMap] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@55,8 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.getURLEncoded] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@114,120 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document.getWeb] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@6,16 [ERROR] Introspection Error : Ambiguous method invocation print(null) for class class org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormatter [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document.getWeb] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@12,11 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.getRecentActions] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@5,31 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document.getWeb] in VMProxyArg : Reference@1,15 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document.getWeb] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@1,6 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document.getWeb] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@3,10 [WARNING] Deprecated usage of getter [com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document.getWeb] in XWiki.XWikiPreferences@10,20 Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance chung-onn

[xwiki-users] trying to make warning macro work in 2.0
by Kelly Lakas 29 Apr '09

29 Apr '09

Hi - I am trying to make the warning box macro work in 2.0. From the research I did, it looked like I needed to put it in like this: {{velocity}}#warning("this needs an update"){{/velocity}}. Then I get this on render: <div class="warningmessage"><span class="messagetype">Warning: </span>this needs an update</div>. I tried {{velocity}}{{xhtml}}#warning("this needs an update"){{/xhtml}}{{/velocity}} as well, but that failed too - I get an error box that says "unknown macro: html". I'm using XWiki Enterprise 1.8.1.18545, installed on my local box. I'm not a programmer/developer, so I'm a little stuck on the next step and my investigations so far haven't turned up what I need to do. I saw also on the footnotes macro page that the comment said that it didn't work in 2.0, so I'm assuming that needs an update to get it to work? Or is the comment wrong? Hate to bother, just looking for a little help.

[xwiki-users] XWiki & External Database
by Dilipkumar Jadhav 29 Apr '09

29 Apr '09

Hello Friends, I have been asked to connect an external database with XWiki (XWiki will be used as the application & MySql as the database). I am using XWiki Enterprise 1.7.14685 :: MySql 5.0. The external database (let's call it titan) is on the same mysql instance (port) as XWiki database itself. The requirement is to fetch user input (in terms of check boxes, radio buttons & text boxes) from XWiki page and insert it into database. Also, some degree of read operation from the database is required. I've been able to read from my external database using the following code directly in my XWiki page (under XWiki 1.0 syntax): <% import groovy.sql.Sql def sql = Sql.newInstance("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/titan", "root", "test", "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver") sql.eachRow("select * from user"){ println "${it.user}" } %> Hence, I am confident that an update or insert operation can be performed with ease too (thanks to the groovy page at http://groovy.codehaus.org/Database+features) But I am not familiar with how to retrieve session parameters from the page context. Could someone please guide me to a resource or a working example of fetching context variables/parameters. Maybe it is a very simple solution, but I have very little background in velocity. Any help would be much appreciated. Also, any time-frame on the page rating feature which is being discussed very often now?(what version we could expect to see it?). Also, would page rating be available for all the documents in an existing wiki (as in embedded in the velocity templates) or would it be available only for newly created pages/documents. Thank you everyone...
