We have a XWiki 5.0m1 wiki farm, relatively recently
upgraded from 3.5
Having created a new subwiki for a new project, and spent a couple of days
creating content in it, I noticed that the profile pics from the global
users were not showing up
I tried to create a local user with the same name (we had only global users
until this point), but this did not work and I therefore deleted the local
user page
Unfortunately XWiki presented a confirmation dialog (for the delete) which I
did not process mentally until after I had pressed confirm
This dialog said that since this was the only page in
the XWiki space, it
would delete all the documents in the XWiki space !
I'm not aware of such a feature in XWiki. I'm pretty sure you deleted
the space instead of deleting the page. In any case, XWiki has a
recycle bin so you can restore your pages from there. Either manually
(unfortunately one by one) by going to Main.AllDocs page in that
subwiki and selecting the 'Deleted Documents' tab, or by code,
combining
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Deleted+Documents
with
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Restore+Documents
.
Hope this helps,
Marius
Sure enough the XWiki space seems now to have been deleted in the sub wiki
:-(
(Seems that this is rather a serious bug - as this was clearly not the only
page in the XWiki space)
Good news the photos for the global users now displays properly, bad news
the admin application and presumably everything else in the XWiki space in
the subwiki (e.g. macros) are now gone
Since there is no admin application in the sub wiki I cannot re-import the
XWiki pages from the XAR
I can equally neither export the pages in the new sub wiki to reimport in a
backed up version, without the new sub wiki
Can you recommend any course of action which will enable me to export my
content pages from the new wiki or import a XAR of the administration
application, without the administration application already being installed
in the sub wiki
(PS the main wiki is intact)
Thanks for your help
Tim
