[xwiki-users] Can't get Export/Import to work
Using a simple XWiki 7.4.2 system I'm having problems getting Export and then Import to work. I'm want to export the entire contents of one Wiki and import it into another one. I think I'm following the instructions here correctly: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/ImportExport The Export seem to go OK and generates a xar file. But when I try to Import that into a different 7.4.2 wiki (or even the one it was exported from) I get told that "No package is available for import". Tim
Do you have anything related in the log ? On Fri, Apr 22, 2016 at 12:37 PM, Tim Dudgeon <[email protected]> wrote:

Not in the Tomcat logs, but I found something in the javascript console: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 413 (Request Entity Too Large) with some link to https://<sever>/xwiki/bin/upload/XWiki/XWikiPreferences Tim
What size is this XAR ? On Fri, Apr 22, 2016 at 2:01 PM, Tim Dudgeon <[email protected]> wrote:

Pretty small. Without more detail I don't have much idea of what would be your issue. If there is nothing sensitive in that XAR and you can reproduce with standard jetty/hsqldb package what you could do maybe is create an issue on http://jira.xwiki.org and attach the XAR there so that we can reproduce and debug.

Ah, that could well be it. This is running behind an nginx reverse proxy. I'll give it a try. Thanks Tim

Yes, confirmed. That was indeed the problem. Raising the limit solved the problem. Thanks Tim

I’ve documented this at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/NginX#HRequestEntityTooL... BTW, would be great if you could validate the nginx configuration there. It was entered by a contributor and not by any member of the xwiki dev team (we don’t use nginx) so we don’t know if the config is good or not, and thus it can be promoted as a good configuration to follow. Do you think you could do that? Thanks -Vincent
Thanks Tim

I can't really validate that config as a whole as it serves its own purpose (and I'm no nginx expert). But taking a quick look the basic proxy configuration (the last location section) looks OK to me. The major comment I would have is that this is not a proxy setup for using TLS, which would normally be one of the main reasons for using a reverse proxy. I'd be happy to send you my config (that does handle TLS) though I'd need to "sanitise" it a bit first. Tim

Feel free to directly edit and information on that page. I even less an nginx expert than you since I’ve not even used it once ;) Thanks -Vincent
