Hi Vincent,
Yes, you're right but according to xwiki-992 at
jira.xwiki.org I
thought that issue was not completely settled yet. That's why I
decided
for this new thread.
As you can see on
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-992, we
have closed it since we couldn't reproduce it.
Well, I tried something else! What?
I decided to import xwiki-1.0.xar again. My skin remained intact
because I copied the default skin to a new skin, and I used that at
the
very beginning when setting up the wiki about a month ago now. Next I
changed from the default skin to our own one, rearranged the panels,
menus and voila saving the layout and preferences was no more problem!
After that I still had to fine tune the access rights!
Maybe this little experiment is of value to you, any way it seems that
everything is working properly again!
Cool. However the problem remains a mystery ;)
I think that the XWiki.XWikiPreferences document somehow got into a
fragile state. Either the archive field got too big, and couldn't be
updated anymore, or it simply got corrupt. Perhaps the new archive
mechanism from 1.2 will prevent this error to occur.
