The Administration Application is included in the default wiki since 1.5M2.
Is it on a branch? Because I'm building from the HEAD and I had to include the application, I received the same message.
I think this shows that some things aren't clear about xwiki wiki and applications. I'll try to explain it a bit : - xwiki-enterprise-web is a webapp containing all the _files_ xwiki needs to run. - xwiki-enterprise-wiki is a set of wiki _applications_ like the administration application (which contains the administration UI) - xwiki applications (like xwiki-application-administration) are sets of wiki _pages_ The normal installation process consist in deploying xwiki-enterprise-web in a container and then to import xwiki-enterprise-wiki in the database. The only users that should be aware that the administration is now an application are the users upgrading their wiki from 1.4.x (and previous) to 1.5. Their wiki isn't empty since they've imported xwiki-enterprise-wiki in the past (and they may not want to upgrade it) but they miss all the new administration pages. I realize that now, with the message "The administration application isn't installed blabla", a lot of our new users will be tempted to import only this app and not the whole wiki (because everybody prefers not to read the documentation ;) so I've modified the behavior a bit (XWIKI-2565). Starting with XE 1.5RC2 this is what you'll see : - after a fresh xwiki-enterprise-web install : http://jv.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WikiEmpty - after an upgrade from 1.4.x (and previous) to 1.5 : http://jv.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WikiNotEmptyAdminAppNotInstalled Hope this will be helpful, JV.
