Thank you for the explanation, Marius.
So, if I'm installing Xwiki on a system that does not have Internet access, should I
simply ignore this message? Or can I place the required file(s) in a local directory and
point Xwiki to that directory?
It depends what you need. If you don't plan to use the distribution
wizard (you will need to cancel it the first time) or extension
manager then you can ignore it or even better make sure XWiki does not
try to access those repositories by setting
extension.repositories=
in WEB-INF/xwiki.properties. This will tell XWiki there is no
repositories, not even the default ones.
XWiki can also support a repository you would have on your side but
the hard part would be to get the "required" files, we are not really
talking about a few files to put in some folder.
The "simplest" would be to mirror http://maven.xwiki.org/releases/ and
that's only if you plan to install nothing else than XAR extensions
release by the XWiki team or by official contrib on Maven (it's enough
for Distribution Wyzard for example). The next level would be to
mirror the Nexus[1] repository on
http://nexus.xwiki.org/nexus/content/groups/public/ (best probably
being to use Nexus itself for that).
Mirroring http://extension.xwiki.org would be quite complex, XWiki
access it using REST, it require a running instance of XWiki
Repository[2] and most of all there is no tool right now do the
synchronization (even if that should not be too hard with a script).
[1] http://www.sonatype.org/nexus/
[2] http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Repository+Application
Thank you.

Hello Vincent
I have tested XWiki Enterprise for a few weeks and now I decided to install Xwiki
Enterprise Manager to set up multiple wikis.
The steps that you described are correct; that's what I did. When I first accessed
the application as an Admin, the Distribution Wizard appeared but it was showing the
following message at the bottom:
"We couldn't find any extension with id
'org.xwiki.manager:xwiki-manager-ui' and version '4.5.1'. Make sure you
have the right extension repositories configured."
Assuming you haven't modified xwiki.properties file, this message probably means that
the Distribution Wizard couldn't connect to the default configured extension
repositories (extensions.xwiki.org and maven.xwiki.org). Above this message you should
have a warning message that tells you the installation process requires internet access.
Make sure the default extension repositories are accessible.
Hope this helps,
Marius
The only options available were "Skip"
and "Cancel". So, I clicked "Skip".
I have re-run the Distribution Wizard but I ended up with same thing. How can I prevent
the above message from appearing in the Distributon Wizard? Am I missing something?
Thank you.

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hello
I have just set up XWiki Enterprise Manager 4.5.1 and installed the Administration
application. I logged in and went to the "Administration: Users" page.
However, when I click on the "Edit" icon to edit a user profile, the popup area
that appears doesn't show any fields. It just says "For more options to edit
this user, please go to the user's profile" and there is a "Save" and
"Cancel" button. There is supposed to be a lot more here. I think that I'm
missing an extension. Does anyone know what I need to do?
so if I understand here's what you did:
* you installed the XWiki WAR
* you started it and skipped the Distribution Wizard
* you downloaded the Admini app XAR from
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Administration+Ap
plication
* you went to the admin of your wiki and imported the downloaded admin
XAR
is that right?
This will indeed not work since the admin app has probably several prerequisites it
needs. Note that normally those should be listed on
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Administration+Applica… but we
haven't defined them yet since usually the admin app is installed when you install the
XE XAR from the Distribution Wizard.
So I'd recommend that you go through the Distribution Wizard and install what it
proposes instead.
What was your use case? To start with a minimal wiki?
Actually what we need to do in the future is to find a way to have the user install the
Extension Manager first so that he can then decide exactly what he wishes to install.
I'll have a look at what you did to try to define the required deps.
Thanks
-Vincent
