[xwiki-users] Fwd: Getting the domain name of a virtual wiki through velocity
by mh 25 Sep '08

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: mh <mhendred(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 11:44 AM Subject: Getting the domain name of a virtual wiki through velocity To: XWiki Developers <devs(a)xwiki.org> Hi, I have an XEM set up with with several virtual wikis on it. I'm trying to get the name of the virtual xwiki though velocity. For example, say that I have a XEM instance running two virtual wikis: 1) wikiA.domain.org 2) wikiB.domain.org on a XEM called xem.domain.org Im looking for the velocity code that will return the name (domain name) when embedded in a page of one of the virtual wikis. Something like: $xwiki.getServerName() if i put that in a page in wikiA, it should return "wikiA.domain.org". Likewise, if i put the same code in wikiB, it should return "wikiB.domain.org" I looked at the velocity code for xem.doman.org/xwiki/bin/view/WikiManager/ because it lists the actual domain names under the "Domain Names" column. But it just gets a list of any virtual wikis available and lists them out. This page uses the xwikimanager plugin. I looked at the api and didn't see a way to directly get the domain name of the wiki in question. Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks in advanced and have a great day! -mh

[xwiki-users] Hidden input after select, radio or checkbox, why ?
by Denis Gervalle 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

Hi all, Does anyone here knows why displayEdit of ListClass fields with a display type of checkbox, radiobutton or select is always followed with a hidden input tag, having the same name than the visible control ? Here is an excerpt of the source code that cause this : if (!getDisplayType().equals("input")) { org.apache.ecs.xhtml.input hidden = new input(input.hidden, prefix + name, ""); buffer.append(hidden); } I really wonder what is the need for that, and if I can remove it, since this seems to break some screen readers, that makes confusion between listbox and combobox due to this hidden field. Thanks in advance for any advices. Denis -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa http://www.softec.st

Guillaume, Well just for convienence so if you have to reboot the Windows server then XWiki would come up as a Windows service without admins having to remember to restart XWiki. Having XWiki run as a Windows service seems the more practical option in this case.

Why don't you simply keep your windows server up all the time, with XWiki Enterprise running on top of it all the time ?

[xwiki-users] Problem with class sheet
by John Carroll 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

Hi all, I have a problem with a class sheet. I have been working on a project for the past few weeks. The class sheet has been edited many times. But after doing the last edit the following happens. 1. I can not access the class via the class editor page where all classes are listed, so i cant see the class sheet or the class properties page. The same error is displayed when accessing any document created using this class. I get this error: Detailed information: Error number 3202 in 3: Exception while reading document XWiki.ExpenseClass Wrapped Exception: Error number 2002 in 2: Error parsing xml XWiki.ExpenseClass empNumber 2 0 empNumber 30 0 com.xpn.xwiki.objects.classes.StringClass SuppBusiConfTotal 93 0 SuppBusiConfTotal 30 etc... for every property in the class (150 or so). I can access the class sheet by using its URL. Editing or changing the class sheet makes no difference. I cannot access the class property page using its URL. 2. The bread crumb link where parent and space is displayed for documents created using this class shows this: Scheduler: ${pdoc.displayTitle} > $tdoc.displayTitle 3. I can not see the Expense.webhome page. In this page I use seachDocuments to find all documents associated with XWiki.ExpenseClass. It looks like a class property has been corrupted and any attempt to read any document associated with the class fails. Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page Expenses.WebHome Wrapped Exception: Failed to evaluate content with id Web Home com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page Expenses.WebHome Wrapped Exception: Failed to evaluate content with id Web Home org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'getDocument' in class com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki threw exception com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3202 in 3: Exception while reading document Expenses.Expensecarrollj15330323092008dgs 4. To get around this problem I created another class, matching the properties of the first class. That worked fine for a little while, even after editing the class sheet many times. This second class is now doing the same thing as the first class. Just to let you know; in the class sheet i am using searchDocuments to find documents created using other classes. So what am i doing wrong? Is there any way i can fix this? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Problem-with-class-sheet-tp1113196p1113196.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Installing and running XWiki on Windows Vista
by goldring, richard 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

Hi, Some user observations on installing and running XWiki on Windows Vista: I tried installing (as administrator) the latest version of XWiki (using the slick looking Windows installer) on Windows Vista and it seemed to install ok, but when I tried running it up using the XWiki starup shortcut on the desktop it couldn't find the start_xwiki.bat in the XWiki directory. I looked and found it under the jetty directory, so moved them to the XWiki directory and tried again, but got access denied errors and can't write to the log file errors in the startup window. When I ran the the start_xwiki.bat directly from a command window it started up correctly and worked fine. So it looks like some configuration, permissions issues need addressing in the next release of XWiki. To simply things is it possible to install XWiki directly as a Windows service so it always comes up when Windows starts? Does anyone know how to do this? Maybe this could be done for the next release of XWiki? The easier and quicker XWiki can be installed and run up then more likely it is to be used by more users. New WYSIWYG editor Like the new editor ... but it's still got a long way to go ... I'd like to see some easy WYSIWYG way of laying out tables, columns, rows, frames by being able to drag them to the desired positions and sizes.

[xwiki-users] How do I add code tag in a bulleted list?
by Taro 24 Sep '08

24 Sep '08

I have a bulleted list. I want to insert a code section in the list. when I use the WYSIWIG editor to add the code, the margin of the code block gets formatted outside of the bulleted list. I've tried using the wiki editor to put the code, but I haven't figured out the syntax. Code: * Item 1 * Item 2 {code}Here's some code.{code} * Item 3 Expected: 1. Item 1 2. Item 2 Here's some code. 3. Item 3 Actual: 1. Item 1 2. Item 2 Here's some code. 3. Item 3 What is the best way to do this? I am using XWiki Enterprise version 1.5.1.12494. Thanks.
