Hi,
I'm feeling a little dumb at the moment since I expected doing the action I'm
struggling with to be so obvious as to be almost default, but I would appreciate being
pointed in the right direction. I have not found a specific answer by searching the FAQ or
this mailing list so maybe I'm experiencing something abnormal or haven't
configured something correctly.
In Xwiki workspaces after installation I get to the page:
The organization's space has not been created yet
As a member of the group of Administrators, you are allowed to create the
Organization's own workspace. Click the link below if you wish to create the
organization's own workspace.
Create the organization space $newspace.set("spacetype",
"workspace")
Warning: You have not created your personal space yet.
http://myserverip:8080/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?section=Organiā¦
and I see:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Show the available categories
* General
* Workspaces
* Users
* Groups
$newspace.set("spacetype", "workspace")
$newspace.set("spacetype", "workspace")
Click on this button if you wish to create your organisation's space. The
organisation's space includes every user on this XWiki Workspaces. It features a blog,
a wiki, a file manager and a photo album. You may want to create it if you wish to publish
information meant to address all your users at once.

Its not clear to me how to create this Organization Space.
Apparently the above is giving me the syntax I can use, but where is it entered?
No, this means that the application wasn't installed properly.
To get to this point I installed Ubuntu 8.10 server in
a VM, added Java 6, Tomcat 6, Postgresl8.3 and setup the xwiki database and
xwiki-enterprise-web-1.8.war in the container and also loaded
xwiki-enterprise-wiki-1.8.xar default pages. I can login as Admin, create new users,
groups, import the Word addin, etc but didnt see much in the way of user workspaces, so
then loaded xwiki-workspaces-wiki-1.2-milestone-1.xar which duly overwrote some of the
existing enterprise xar default pages and I logged in as the default Admin user.
Turning XE into XEM is not so easy at the moment. You should start with
the XEM war, and not with the XE one.
