RE: [xwiki-users] access rights problem

by Roger Rukundo Nzabandora

Thanks a lot Brandon, I managed to log in as super admin after editing the xwiki.cfg file. _____ From: Esbach, Brandon [mailto:Esbachb@tycoelectronics.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 07, 2006 6:00 PM To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: RE: [xwiki-users] access rights problem Depending on what page (looks like webhome/main); there is an easy solution. How the xwiki permissions work is by exclusion (hope that term is correct). IE, you've told it that XWiki.XWikiGuest is allowed to view the page - xwiki assumes you thus mean that all others are to be denied. This is not unusual, if you've ever worked with network apps it becomes easier to use (MUCH easier than specifically grant/deny). To fix this, all you need to do is remove the permission (click on "XWiki Access Rights" link to get back there); you do this by clicking the "remove this right entry" once you've selected the entry. You most likely need to be logged in as admin to do this. If admin is also causing a problem, you'll need to use the superadmin configuration (details on the xwiki.com if I recall correctly) A tip: When I setup permissions, I always use groups. That way it's easier to relate functions to groups. In your case, I assume your aim was to allow guests to view the page - and you had the right process in mind. Simply add XWiki.XWikiAllGroup to the Groups entry, or any other group you need to view the page, and add the guest user afterwards. Hmm, hope that makes sense.. _____ From: Roger Rukundo Nzabandora [mailto:rnrukundo@syscorp.co.ug] Sent: 07 June 2006 15:12 To: xwiki-dev(a)objectweb.org; xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: [xwiki-users] access rights problem I was trying to learn how the access rights work on my xwiki site and I seem to have completely messed up something.

RE: [xwiki-users] Date value compare (the sequal)

by Joep Janssen

I'll explain. I've got a class with a date attribute. This class is represented through a form to the user, so he/she has to set this date. Now I want, on a separate page, to create an overview of all objects of that class which fall in a given period. But not from the current date to 1 month back. Rather from a set start date to a set end date. And yes I want to do this with a Velocity script. Hope that explains a bit more.

Date value compare (the sequal)

by jjanssen＠nl.swets.com

Hello, I've asked a question before on this subject (http://www.objectweb.org/wws/arc/xwiki-users/2006-03/msg00131.html), but now a slightly different one: Dates in Xwiki are of type java.util.Calendar. This allows me to go back in time from the current date/time a certain amount. But suppose I want all objects, of a class with a date attribute, where the date attribute has a value from a start date to an end date. For instance: all object where date between 01-05-2006 and 31-05-2006. Is this possible as well? I haven't succeeded yet. So any help would be appreciated. Thanks again, Joep Janssen

objects not saving

by jjanssen＠nl.swets.com

Hello, I sometimes see strange behaviour in my applications. I'm using a lot of templates, where users fill in forms. But when saving I don't see the object in my presentation sheet, I rather get back an empty page. It seems to be happening at random. Has somebody experienced this kind of behaviour as well? Cheers, Joep Janssen
