Specifying new header....
by Adrian Hall 14 Jul '06

14 Jul '06

When I go to Admin->Skins, the header, footer, etc. sections are empty - the only bit that is filled in is the stylesheet. I want to "edit" the bit with the logo and the Parent > Page and the login/version information in it. Can I just copy and paste the appropriate code from templates/header.vm into this section? -Adrian

Problem: Add a news item
by Olivier Rosseel 14 Jul '06

14 Jul '06

Hello, When I choose a name for my document and I submit with "Add this item", I'm redirected to a form to fill in the content of the news item. But there is a problem. All the input fields are gone. I can't fill in a thing. I hope someone has a solution for this. Greetz.

Forum system that integrates with XWiki?
by Adrian Hall 14 Jul '06

14 Jul '06

(Apologies for the repost - damn digital signatures) Is there a forum system that integrates with XWiki (most particularly, the search and authentication functions of XWiki)? Some of my users want me to direct mailing lists into a forum system and have them searchable from the XWiki search page as an additional section. Suggestions are welcome. -Adrian

wikimatrix entry
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI) 12 Jul '06

12 Jul '06

Just visited wikimatrix.org again for the first time in several months, and it's not only much expanded but much improved. Two things should be of interest the XWiki community: The XWiki entry on wikimatrix is a little thin. For one thing, I think it's wrong on a couple of counts. There is a forum there which is sitting idle. This is a fabulous opportunity to get some exposure. Brian M. Thomas - Senior Technical Architect AT&T Services, Inc.

basic installation problem
by John Fry 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi folks, I'm having trouble installing xwiki and looking for advice. I'm new to tomcat so I suspect the problem is something simple that I've overlooked. System is Debian unstable with tomcat5 and mysql5. The Tomcat default page looks fine at http://localhost:8180/, and the JSP and servlet examples there work fine. I followed the directions on Linux+Tomcat+MySQL and InstallerXWikiSurDebianInstable The instructions are a little confusing as to where I should copy xwiki-0.9.840.war. The instructions at InstallerXWikiSurDebianInstable say to copy it to /usr/share/tomcat5/server/webapps/xwiki.war When I do that and restart tomcat5, the xwiki.war file is not found (no xwiki directory is created). The instructions at Linux+Tomcat+MySQL say to copy the war file to tomcat5/webapps/xwiki.war When I do that and restart tomcat5, /var/log/tomcat5/catalina_2006-07-10.log reports: INFO: Installing web application at context path /xwiki from URL file:/var/lib/tomcat5/webapps/xwiki Jul 10, 2006 9:25:54 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext processTlds SEVERE: Error reading tld listeners javax.servlet.ServletException: Exception processing TLD at resource path /WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld in context /xwiki javax.servlet.ServletException: Exception processing TLD at resource path /WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld in context /xwiki at org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig.tldScanTld(TldConfig.java:549) Any advice would be much appreciated! Best, John

by Guillaume François 07 Jul '06

07 Jul '06

Is there a way to obtain a dump of the database for Oracle ? Even a small one could be right (but if the dump is huge, this goes well too). I'm askking 'cause on the official xwiki website there only a MySQL Version. Could someone, send me a dump with some pages or tell me where to found such a thing ? Thanks. -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS/IT d(+) s++:- a-- C++$ ULC(+)>+++$ !P--- L+>$ !E---? W+++$ !N* !o-- K--? w(+) !O---? !M- !V--?

Thanks, -Adrian On the right side of the text editor in xwiki give you some hints about the syntax. To create a link to a attachment you can do {image:filename.gif} inserts an image {attach:filename.doc} creates a link getAttachmentURL() returns the URL which you can use with the <a> HTML tag directly. Bye Frank
