Hi Vincent, thanks for your answer. I found the patch you mentioned and I made the most as described. What is about the java-files? I do not now much about, but where I have to save them? And do I have to compile them? Maybe someone can tell me, which pages I can import without errors? Because before I try to import, the most works fine!

Hello instead of XWikiPreferences
by Gunter Leeb 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

Hi, I have now a reproducable issue around the "XWikiPreferences" page. This issue is around for all beta releases so far (seen with B4,B5 and B6). On a fresh install, if you chage to dodo skin in xwiki.cfg and then try to go to the /xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences page you just get a "Hello". This is bad especially when you want to import or export something. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install B6 2. run, test 3. change xwiki.cfg to dodo & restart 4. change skin to MySkin 5. go to http://.../xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug with dodo that slipped through?

Xwiki.com API stability and Class/Object model
by Oova 12 Apr '07

12 Apr '07

I m using the XWiki farm and although I am stoked about the capabilities to add properties, create classes and use document as objects I still lack the complete understanding of the inner relationships and have to interpret existing code examples, the API docu and use trial and error for making (slow) progress. Here are two categories of questions, I intentionally did not post as separate items, since others might encounter the same: Category Bigger Picture: - I started creating my application using the current release on the xwiki.com farm, how much rewriting do I have to do after XWIKI V1.0 will be released? None I assume, but I want to make sure. - How is the visibility of references across spaces/pages? I assume references created locally on a page (e.g., $mydoc) stay local, means if you want for example work with one document on the menu and the toolbar and the main page, you have to create a kind of administrator object, which can be used across the xwiki or space. What is the recommended practice here? - How is the visibility of Objects across pages? I noticed that a link to another page from the menu page had the question mark behind it, if the home page was shown on the main page, but was available, if one of my own pages are on the main page. This suggests, although the menu and the home page have the same parent (do they?) and my own created page shares only the same root (xwiki I assume) with the menu page that there are mechanisms I don't understand. Please help - I would volunteer to create a docu about how to use the API, if I understood the inner guts of it. When is a documentation planned with some examples, who is in charge of it and could help? - Are there any recommended practices for how to use HTML constructs and the implication on how the panels and the main page look like then? E.g., using frame, iframe - How to I archive the code I created? Any export/import mechanism available? Category: How to do .... - How do I change a value of a property of an object and commit it so it is stored in the database? - How do I use the property "Database List Class", it seems very powerful in creating dynamic lists of values, references to other objects etc. but I am unable to decipher how to use it. -How do I create Classes inheriting other Classes I created?

LDAP Authentication
by Gunter Leeb 12 Apr '07

12 Apr '07

Hi everyone, I have here the solution to all LDAP feature request (at least the ones I know of). Its been submitted as JIRA issue XWIKI-1079. This component is a substitude for com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.LDAPAuthServiceImpl and is configured primarily through xwiki.cfg. The new features and changes: - Separate LDAP login and authentication validation - An LDAP group membership is first checked before a user is authenticated against LDAP - LDAP Groups are handled recursivly (groups in groups) - LDAP Groups and their members are cached with an expiration - LDAP attributes can update XWiki user attributes configurable at create time or on every login - LDAP group membership can be sync'ed with XWiki group membership - If authentication with LDAP fails it still will try to authenticate against the XWiki DB - detailed comments in xwiki.cfg - pretty much every detail of the behavior can be configured in xwiki.cfg - as far as I can see, all valuable features from the old LDAPAuthServiceImpl are reimplemented (except for LDAP bind being sufficent for login implemented by the check_level configuration) - I used as much code from this class as possible. - I have tried to implement all the feature requests about LDAP that I have heard about - any LDAP attribute can be used representing the XWiki's user name Known Issues: - joining an XWiki group or removing someone from a group does not appear to work correctly - creating a user appears incomplete to me I tested against OpenLDAP and Novell eDirectory. I would need help from experienced XWiki developers. I would like to ask for a code-read, verification of how the module is using the XWiki APIs and testing in various environments. Most of all, I am looking for feedback and tips to finish up this module.

Section editing in XWiki...
by Rajendra Prasad Murakonda 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Hi, How does the section edit in XWiki works? I created an application similar to FAQ application of XWiki. Section edit is enabled for the class sheets but not for the documents that I created using the application(that I made). Why like that? Is the section editing for class sheets and documents different. There was a FAQ which says section editing for documents is not yet there. But I can see section editing enabled for many of the pages on XWiki site. Please note that I enabled the section edit in the XWiki configuration file and I have edit rights on the document. Still section edit's not there. Thanks & Regards, Rajendra Prasad Murakonda. http://digitalglue.in/

Multiple xwiki
by igor_ti＠yahoo.com.br 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

Hi, I new on this list and I'm not a native English speaker (so sorry by any misspelling). I would like to know if its possible or if some one have setup a multiple xwiki contexts in only one data base model. I didn't find anything about it on FAQ. So the idea is to have more than one xwiki running in one o more servers accessing the same data base; but considering that each xwiki "instance" will have its own data, menu layouts and so. I have found this FAQ http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowToSetupVirtualWikis but it treats about multiple xwiki instances accessing different data bases. Please, any help will be very welcome. If someone knows about any docs that I can read... Best regards, Igor Regis
