[xwiki-users] Error about "SendPageByEmail Application"

by lixinhe

Hi ,all. I have added SendPageByEmail Application, but when I sent a mail it told me "The page has not been sent. There might be an error in the email addresses you entered". In the page ,(http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/SendPageByEmailApplicati on) it said that In order to work properly, it requires the following conditions to be met : * The MailSender <http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/MailSenderPlugin> plugin must be up & running on your wiki instance * You must have a SMTP server properly configured * The panel has to be saved by a user with programming rights. I have set up an Outgoing SMTP Server, and I think SMTP server work well. So the problem maybe MailSender plugin. How to install the MailSender plugin? I think I don't need to install it, since I use XWiki Enterprise 1.5 which has contained this plugin. http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/MailSenderPlugin)

[xwiki-users] How to generate the validation email

by lixinhe

Hi ,all We are using xwiki-enterprise-1.6 which have the option to send the validation email to the person who registers new. But when I login with the created ID it is giving me an error message 'Your account is not yet active, because your email has not yet been confirmed'. Do you have an idea on how to confirm the email sent while registration ? Some people said that the email sent by XWiki is supposed to contain a link, on which the user is supposed to click on. So ,how to set the configuration to generate this email? Thanks .

Re: [xwiki-users] [Request for Feedback] New WYSIWYG Editor Inter face

by goldring, richard

Guillaume, Looks good. A few points: * Tables - is it possible to make tables WYSIWYG editable so the user can grab a table, row, column, cell and resize them. For layout of wiki pages it would make it much quicker and easier to create great looking wiki pages. - is it possible to control the formatting of tables to make them invisible (for layout purposes). * Frames - is it possible to add frames to display others web pages or wiki pages on the wiki page being edited? Keep on coding. All the best, Richard -----Original Message----- From: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org]On Behalf Of Guillaume Lerouge Sent: 21 August 2008 18:06 To: users(a)xwiki.org Subject: [xwiki-users] [Request for Feedback] New WYSIWYG Editor Interface Hi fellow XWiki users, I've spent the last couple weeks working on designing mockups for the new version of the WYSIWYG editor that's currently in the works. I've put all my work on this page : http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorInterface and I'd be glad to gather initial user feedback on these mockups. Please tell us what you think about them now so that we can improve the screens before implementation begins at full speed. Specifically, I'm wondering about the following things : - Can the text be improved to make things easier to understand ? If so, where ? - Are some features harder to reach than they should ? - Are dialog boxes & trays consistent with user models of how edition software usually behaves ? - Do you see anything that will make an user wonder what's happening and where he / she should click next ? Please note that the colors are only indicative at this stage - a designer will improve my work before we get to the final stage. I'll try incorporate your feedback soon and will let you know how the subseuent development goes.

[xwiki-users] A lot of Problems with XWIKI

by Goh Chong Leng, Jenson

We have managed to setup xwiki to work in our UNIX environment. However, we faced a lot of problems with xwiki during runtime. (1) Running xwiki in tomcat - The java process of tomcat can never be shutdown properly without using 'hard' killing, i.e. kill -HUP <process id>. I have searched the web and found that the cause is actually quartz library holding on to a process and thus preventing the tomcat jvm from shutting down. See here http://jira.opensymphony.com/browse/QUARTZ-204 . The problem is upgrading quartz to 1.6 doesn't resolve the problem and attempting to update the two properties as recommended into the quartz.properties file will cause tomcat startup failure. This is quite frustrating, so any input on how to resolve this problem is much appreciated. Of course, the main motivation for this is to ensure proper startup and shutdown so that this process can be automated. If we have to manually execute 'kill', the automation of this tomcat process will be problematic. (2) Everytime after a fresh restart of tomcat, when I hit the first page of my installed xwiki, I almost always get a connection reset error. But the second hit will be ok. I wonder why? Any answers to this? (3) The WYSIWYG support is a nightmare. Everytime after an edit (even a mere clicking on the WYSIWYG link without edit will cause similar problems), all the formatting that used to work suddenly don't and user have to manually reformat it. How to make WYSIWYG rendering consistent? (4) Customization of user registration field - we spend hours trying to figure out how to customize the fields which we would like to have in our registration page. Only managed to get the attributes added into the XWiki.XWikiUsers object. But how to link this to stats/user profile edit page? Any ideas? Also it seem like after an attribute is added to the XWikiUsers object, it can't be removed. Any ideas on how to remove it? Documentation on customization of user registration page is just a one liner which is totally useless to anyone who want to customize it. It should be improved. (5) When using Oracle as backend, search functions cannot work. Exception like this occurred when user perform search: Exception while searching documents with sql from VisitStats as obj where obj.cookie=? and obj.endDate > ? order by obj.endDate desc Wrapped Exception: could not execute query Any way to get this search function working? (6) Every now and then, log file will throws exceptions like this: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB Any idea what is the cause of it and how to resolve it? All in all, xwiki presents a great opportunity that meets many organization knowledge management needs (esp. in my organization). But until all these problems are being resolved, I am amazed by the large number of user web sites that used xwiki in a production environment. In my limited experience with xwiki thus far (closed to 3 months of working on it), the support requirements of xwiki would be such a big problems that it will make anyone think twice to adopt it as enterprise knowledge management system. I certainly is reconsidering other wiki consequently of all these problems. My company uses mediawiki as well. While don't have the nice authentications and authorizations features like xwiki (which we like to have), it is extremely stable and easy to use. --- Jenson GOH (Mr) :: Manager (IT), CORS, Registrar's Office.
