Can't get XWiki 1.0 beta 4 and embedded Apache Derby to play nice

by Brian J. Sayatovic

I once had an older version of XWiki running with embedded Derby under Tomcat 5 on Windows XP. I blew that away to start fresh with XWiki 1.0 beta 4 (still with embedded Derby under Tomcat 5 on Windows XP); however, I've run into a variety of difficulties. In my last run with XWiki, someone had converted the script to create the DB into a Derby-compatible syntax which I ran through SQuirreL SQL Client to prime the DB. With the latest version of XWiki, though, it seems there is no need to explicitly create the schema ahead of time. My understanding is that Hibernate will do this automatically when directed to do so through the XWiki configuration: xwiki.store.hibernate.updateschema=1 Thus, I have Tomcat 5 set up with a datasource for the XWiki context: <Context docBase="C:/Program Files/XWiki/xwiki-1.0" useNaming="true" swallowOutput="true" privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false" antiJARLocking="false" reloadable="true" > <Resource name="jdbc/xwiki" description="XWiki DataSource" auth="Container" username="xwiki" password="xwiki" type="javax.sql.DataSource" driverClassName="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver" url="jdbc:derby:C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/My Documents/Xwiki;create=true" maxActive="8" maxIdle="4" />  <ResourceLink name="users" global="UserDatabase" type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase"/> </Context> In the hibernate.cfg.xml file, I've commented out the direct connections in favor of using a datasource:  <property name="connection.datasource">java:/comp/env/jdbc/xwiki</property> <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.DerbyDialect</property> Trying this, though, I get problems when I hit my XWiki saying the schema XWIKI is not found. I connected again using SQuirreL SQL Client and indeed, there was no XWIKI schema (but the default, APP, was there). So I created one using SQL: CREATE SCHEMA XWIKI Now the schema exists, so I start Tomcat with XWiki and try to access it. Now it doesn't complain about the schema not existing. Instead it says it can't find the tables it wants: ERROR 42X05: Table 'XWIKI.XWIKIDOC' does not exist. I cannot understand what it takes to have the schema created. Any ideas?

Re: [xwiki-users] Problems setting up multiple servers

by Neighborhood Org

Sorry to keep sending follow-ups, but just to explain, I went to edit XWiki.XWikiServerDomain2 and set the "server" field to domain2.domain2.com Then, I added a CNAME record in DNS to point domain2.domain2.com to that box. Then navigated my browser to http://domain2.domain2.com:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ and it redirected me to the no such wiki page. Thanks.

Is there something I need to configure in Tomcat to get it to pass along the domain information to xwiki perhaps? Thanks again!

> Try using domain1.domain1.com and domain2.domain2.com, and see if this works. Hi Sergiu, I get redirected to the page for not having a wiki configured at that address. Thanks for helping though!

Re: [xwiki-users] Problems setting up multiple servers

Thanks Vincent, Yes, I tried following both http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Virtualization and http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowToSetupVirtualWikis word-for-word. It seems to be close to working. If I have XWiki.XWikiServerDomain1 with server www.domain1.com and XWiki.XWikiServerDomain2 with server set to www.domain 2.com, and I hit http://www.domain1.com:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome and http://www.domain2.com:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome it at least realizes there should be sites at both (ie it find a wiki), it's just using the same database for each. Do I need to do something to tell it to configure separate databases? [And, if I change the server on domain2 from www.domain2.com to just domain2.com and hit http://domain2.com:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome with my browser, it says there's No Wiki at that address...] Thanks!

Problems setting up multiple servers

by Neighborhood Org

Hi all, I just downloaded XWiki to evaluate it. From the list of features, it looks like it might be the best out there. But, I can't figure out how to get multiple wikis to work. I pointed two domains at my XWiki server. I created an XWikiServerClass. I created XWiki.XWikiServerDomain1 and XWiki.XWikiServerDomain2 and set their servers to be www.domain1.com and www.domain2.com, respectively with owner XWiki.admin. I set xwiki.virtual=1 and restarted tomcat. It looks like they're both still working out of the "xwiki" database in MySql rather than creating their own database. If I make a change on the wiki in domain1, the same change appears in domain2. They aren't two separate wikis. If I get rid of the www. at the beginning of one of the "server" fields, it redirects to the "This wiki does not exist" page. So, I can't seem to get virtual wikis working. Any ideas? I'd really like to choose XWiki for this (hopefully big) project. Thanks so much!

lots of errors.

by David Holden

When I run xwiki ./start_xwiki.sh I get lots of errors when browsing, e.g. 11:53:12,807 ERROR P1-19 http://localhost:8301/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome SimpleLog4JLogSystem:logVelocityMessage:143 - Left side ($objuser.getProperty("usertype").value) of '==' operation has null value.

translation of the documentation (ie. in french)

by lopensource-cestbien＠yahoo.fr

hello, I m new user of XWiki, and i want to help the xwiki "community" translating the documentation (ie. in french). I was starting doing it on xwiki.com on the "Admin guide" some days before but without any permission. So today, i asked you here how must we process ? I got a mail from Vincent Massol and so, some questions are : - how can't we be sure that the french version of the documentation will be an updated version ? - how prevent new information(s) on the french version that wouldn't appear on the english one ? - what will be the interact(s) between a french and an english version ? This is my opinion, but of course we must discuss about this : If we see the wikipedia contribution process, then there is one wiki instance for each language. The only interact is an interlang link between article(s). Differents versions could be, and (often) are different ! I think we must do the same for xwiki documentation. Got a dirty version of the documentation is better than nothing! Vincent was talking to me about starting a french instance of xwiki website. I think : maybe not, this is a good idea ! For me, french and english community of xwiki can progress on 2 distinct ways without any problem. Sure, there will be some people to make bridge.. What are you thinking about this ? please give us your opinion. Best regards Boly38 NB: Vincent Massol, please correct me if i do some mistake :)

Is panel wizard broken in b5 ?

by Antonio Goncalves

Hi, I've downloaded xWiki 1.0beta 5 and tried to use the panel wizard to have both columns. After clicking on "save the new layout" a popup tells me that it's ok ("the layout has been saved properly"). But after, when I go to any other page, the right columns disapears (like if the layout wasn't taken into account). I know that this worked on b4. Was there any changes or is that a bug ? Thanks, Antonio
