I ran a flush on the cache immediately after the problem recurred, and the settings were not restored. Any other ideas? Thanks, aaron On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 12:46 AM, Ashtar Communications <[email protected]> wrote:
Vincent,
Thanks for the help. Answers below:
Email -- Admin Email and SMTP server. The rest of the settings are maintained.
What other setting remains that is not the default value?
On the Email page, the Port, Server Username, and Server Password always stay - only the Admin Email and SMTP server are cleared out.
Page Elements - All panel settings, reverting to zero displayed panels. Metadata visibility settings are maintained
You modified those and they remain? If so the problem is not a cache issue that resets XWikiPreferences.
I modified the panel settings to display two panels on the left, and no panels on the right. When the bug occurs, The "show left/right panel?" settings are set to "--" and the "Panels to Display" are blank.
The frequency of occurrence has dropped in the last day - at first it was happening every 15-20 minutes, and today it went most of the day with no apparent problems. The next time it occurs I will try to flush the cache and see if that sheds any light...
thanks,
aaron
One thing you can test to ensure this: When the problem happens do a flush cache in a wiki page:
{{velocity}} $xwiki.flushCache() {{/velocity}}
And then verify if your settings are back.
Thanks -Vincent
Registration - Use Email Verification, Active Authentication Check, Validation Email Content, Confirmation Email Content. Everything else is maintained. Several entire Spaces - the wiki has a large number of spaces (~150). They seem to be getting deleted at random. I will leave the page for an hour, come back, and the link to the space homepage will have the "question mark" icon next to it. The space will no longer appear in the spaces list on the Dashboard.
Any other ideas? I'm ready to downgrade back to 3.x - this only started happening with a fresh install of 4.2 and it's obviously a serious problem...
thanks,
aaron

+1 vote I had the same problem until set "Prevent unregistered users from editing pages, regardless of the page or space rights" on. But I don't know still if it is a bug or a feature :-)
It's a bug… Fixed in 4.2M3, see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-8160

Hi,
It seems that my wiki is spontaneously resetting several configuration
settings, most notably the registration, email, and layout settings. I
enter information like the email server, address, and port, which
panels to display in the sidebar, or whether to require email
verification. After a few hours, I return to the site to find that the
panels are turned off, email registration is turned off and the boxes
for formatting verification emails, etc are blank, and half of the
email settings are cleared. There may also be other configuration
options being reset that I haven't found yet.
I am the only administrative user on the wiki. It's also definitely
not due to vandalism - exactly the same settings disappear every time,
and it has now repeated itself 4 times in the last 24 hours.
I'm running XEM 4.2m2 on Tomcat with MySQL. Any help would be greatly
appreciated...
thanks,
Aaron
