Hi,
If I understand correctly, this should happen (= no DW, no data into DB)
only if the first visitor of the wiki clicked on "Cancel" at wiki
installation through DW, right?
I would prefer not to vote for any solution that ask for a xwiki.cfg
modification! IMO, having a new user to edit this file is like a regression
in the ease of use.
Why don't we force showing the Distribution Wizard at XWiki's startup (
&&
only if DB is empty)? If one wants to install a xar manually, he still can
click on cancel, and import the .xar with superadmin, but let's face it :
it will be a very low amount of users.
Again you do get the DW the first time, it always worked like this.
Please guys try things before stating unexisting issues.

Hello Vincent,
As new user, I faced this problem... I have installed the empty wiki and
it wasn't very easy to understand how to use the super admin. There was not
a easy documentation about the super admin account, so that I put an advice
in the xwiki documentation. But I guess that the solution 1 is enough to
solve the problem if you know that has a super admin and how to turn on its.
See you.

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users I really don't understand what you are
talking about here.
When the database is empty you get Distribution Wizard which install
you default UI.
Only if you're logged in!
And when you install the WAR your DB is empty and there's no user so you
have to edit xwiki.cfg and set the superadmin user.
That's the problem everyone is having now in 5.x when they install using
the WAR.
Thanks

unfortunately. I think It's almost impossible for a new
user to understand
by themselves that they have to edit xwik.cfg's superadmin password and
restart their wiki. Thus I believe we need to improve the XWiki install
process. I'm proposing 2 solutions.

If we restart the wiki then again the first page accessed in view mode will
display the information (if the user is not logged in).

the admin has to edit the
xwiki.cfg file, set a password and restart XWiki and that
he'll then get a
wizard to install default wiki pages and extensions.
