Hi, With the rights managements UI [1] the suggested way to edit groups is to click on the small edit icon at the right of the group row. Here's the scenario I've just tried successfully on a XE 1.6.1 install (XEM plugin) : - created a new group - clicked on the edit button at the right of the row - added a new local user to the group - back to the groups list the correct number of members is displayed for the newly created group Now the administrator is supposed to be able to edit the group by going to the group page, here's the scenario blah blah : - created a new group - clicked on its name ** - clicked on "edit" in the top menu - added a new local user to the group - the page is immediately reloaded with the new member appearing in the list Do you see any JavaScript error when you edit the group with this method ? Which browser are you using ? If firefox can you try this scenario with http://getfirebug.com/ installed ? Side developer note : I'd be in favor of removing the link on the group name (see ** above), I think the RMUI should be self-sufficient, the AJAX UI in the inline view of group pages is disturbing imho. WDYT ? [1] : http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise12M2#HNe... Thanks, JV. On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 4:53 PM, Tronicek <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi,

in XWiki XE 1.6 and 1.6.1 the application "Wiki administration - Groups" behaves buggy.

As member count always 0 (zero) users are displayed. After selection of a group the new window is not opened in inline mode. So it's not possible to create new groups or add a user to a group. No user is shown as a member. Changing to online mode and trying to add a user leads to the message "Some users already exist in the group" (XWikiGroups object of this user already exists). Adding of a realy new member let the member list still empty.

I'm using virtual XWiki XE in virtual mode (XEM plugin), Oracle 9iR2 Database, JBoss 4.2.1 GA

I'll try out XE 1.7 next.

Is there a known problem?

Thanks for response. There is no JavaScript error to be seen (firebug). No output on JBoss console. On firebug console following AJAX response is received (Oracle XE database): { "totalrows": 2, "returnedrows": 2 , "offset": 1, "reqNo": 1, "rows": [ {"username" : "XWikiAdminGroup", "fullname" : "XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup", "wikiname" : "local", "members" : "0", "userurl" : "/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiAdminGroup", "usersaveurl" : "/xwiki/bin/save/XWiki/XWikiAdminGroup", "userinlineurl" : "/xwiki/bin/inline/XWiki/XWikiAdminGroup?xpage=editgroup", "docurl" : "/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?section=Groups" } , {"username" : "XWikiAllGroup", "fullname" : "XWiki.XWikiAllGroup", "wikiname" : "local", "members" : "0", "userurl" : "/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiAllGroup", "usersaveurl" : "/xwiki/bin/save/XWiki/XWikiAllGroup", "userinlineurl" : "/xwiki/bin/inline/XWiki/XWikiAllGroup?xpage=editgroup", "docurl" : "/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?section=Groups" } ]} -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Administration-of-Groups-not-valid-since-1.6-tp1364242p...

Was fixed by developer group => XE 1.7M2 (JIRA, XWIKI-2777): '...empty strings in Oracle are NULL, and null can only be checked with "is (not) null", and not with normal string comparison.'

Confirm that it's working with 1.7-SNAPSHOT.

Thanks, Rudolf

Thanks for the confirmation, Rudolf. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
