Dear reader, Version: XWiki/XE 2.2.4 I gave the Office importer some treatment to make it work conform expectations. Maybe interesting for others? Whats weird is, that in IE7 it proposes an ugly document name, something like: c-fakepath etc. So I modified XWiki.OfficeImporterResults to strip everything in front of the actual documentname: #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName("filePath").replaceAll("^.*[\\]","")) Then, I added a check for an empty spacename (otherwise you'll end-up with a document in the XWiki space, which is probably not what you want), and also strip any considered 'dangerous' character from the documentname (such as &^@, accents, etc): ########################### ## Validate Target Space ## ########################### #if(! $request.targetSpace) {{error}}$msg.get("xe.officeimporter.results.missingspace", [$goBack]){{/error}} #else #if( $request.targetSpace == "" ) {{error}}$msg.get("xe.officeimporter.results.missingspace", [$goBack]){{/error}} #else ## #set($targetSpace=$request.targetSpace.replaceAll("[:/&=+?#]", "-")) ## #set($targetSpace=$request.targetSpace.replaceAll("[^a-zA-Z0-9-_~]","_").replaceAll(" \\.\\/", "").replaceAll('"',"")) #set($targetSpace=$request.targetSpace.replaceAll(" \\.\\/", "").replaceAll("[\=\&\@'\\/()]","-").replaceAll('"',"").replaceAll("[^a-zA-Z0-9-_~]","_")) #end #end ########################## ## Validate Target Page ## ########################## #if(! $request.targetPage) {{error}}$msg.get("xe.officeimporter.results.missingpage", [$goBack]){{/error}} #else ## #set($targetPage=$request.targetPage) ## #set($targetPage=$request.targetPage.replaceAll("[^a-zA-Z0-9-_~]","_").replaceAll("/", "-").replaceAll('"',"")) #set($targetPage=$request.targetPage.replaceAll("[\=\&\@'\\/()]", "-").replaceAll('"',"").replaceAll("[^a-zA-Z0-9-_~]","_")) #end Finally, I did not want to present the menu option at all for users who have no rights to create documents: In: templates/menuview.vm ## #if($canImport) (original) #if($canImport && $hasCreatePage) #submenuitem($xwiki.getURL('XWiki.OfficeImporter', 'view') $msg.get('core.menu.create.pageFromOffice') 'tmActionImport') #end More of this to follow, hopefully useful for others!
