Hi.
I am shifting my wiki into another computer. I wish to retain the same
state of the wiki as it is now - the same registered users, document pages,
preferences etc. Could I just copy-paste the wiki files ? :)

Export the contents of your XWiki in a XAR, import the XAR back in your new
XWiki :-)
You can search for "Import" on XWiki.org to find out more about this topic.

I usally do it the long way round:
1) Disable tomcat/other-java-container
2) Full backup of database. MySQL has this feature as part of it's admin gui.
3) Move xwiki folder from the old tomcat server to the new one. Make sure tomcat is
disabled on new server.
4) Restore database to the new server. Create username and assign permissions. You may
need to do some configuration updates to allow the import of large data.
5) Start tomcat on new server, and login.
I have a document for each of my main wiki classes so that each can be qualified - I do
this for each new release that we use in the plant as well.

I've got a small doubt. Right now, the database configuration in the
hibernate.cfg.xml is using the one shown below and not the MySQL (which is
commented) -
<property
name="connection.url">jdbc:hsqldb:file:database/xwiki_db;shutdown=true</property>
<property name="connection.username">sa</property>
<property name="connection.password"></property>
<property
name="connection.driver_class">org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver</property>
<property
name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect</property>
<property
name="connection.provider_class">com.xpn.xwiki.store.DBCPConnectionProvider</property>
<property name="connection.pool_size">2</property>
<property name="statement_cache.size">2</property>
Does this mean that it is not using a database currently? I had tried to
configure it to MySQL now but on restart it showed an error (refer to 'Error
on restart' by me).
Is it safe to configure a MySQL database in the new computer and import the
xar file ?

So you're not using MySQL as database, but the one that is bundled with
XWiki.
I think you can simply copy and paste the database folder from the old
pc to the new one. Can anyone confirm this?

Could this helps?
http://hsqldb.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/ch01.html
Depending in the platform you are using as client OS, you will have a
number of options to connect/read/write data to/from your hsqldb
database. You have already seen in the connection.url property in
hibernate.cfg.xml that XWiki is using JDBC to connect to the database.
Not only to hsqldb but also to MySQL. Thus, you can use any other client
using JDBC. A simple OpenOffice JDBC connection could work.

Hi Hari,
As suggested just export and re-import from the Administration page.
Someone mentioned that the export feature is broken. I haven't found
so. I think this person meant that it's not working only when trying
to import an old XWiki 0.9 version in a new 1.1 version.
AFAIK it's not broken in 1.1. I'll double check when I'm at my desk
again (offline now).
Re HSQLDB yes, you can also very simply copy the $XWIKINSTALLDIR/
database/ directory to the new computer too but the import/export
will work between any databases and should be preferred. That's
unless your database is so big that it becomes unpractical and then
pure database import/export solution should be used. But I don't
think this is your case from what I see.
Thanks

I've never seen an issue with it when importing 1.0 or later so I'm
curious to know how I can reproduce this problem.

It sounds like you don't have the mysql database driver in your
classpath. This is a separate download from the web.

Subject: Exception while reading document XWiki.XWikiPreferences
After installing both my servlet container and Mysql database, I am
still not able to log into xwiki. I edited the necessary files and am
positive that Tomcat 5.5 is configured correctly. I can get the apache
page but when I click xwiki home I get the error listed below. One
strange thing is when I comment the mysql database back, it allows me to
view the xwiki but when I uncomment like the directions say, it does not
work. What could be the problem?
Thanks,
Tim

Hi.
The same thing has happened to me too. I had run xwiki without changing
the conf.xml file first. When I changed the database after the very first
call I got the error you mentioned below. My guess is that when you run it
for the first time, it 'sticks' to the database it sees first and refuses to
let go... :)
I suggest you export a backup xar file (if you have any data) from your
running wiki, then install a new wiki with your database, see if it works
and then import the xar file. Keep the old installation, just in case, if
you want to tinker around with it.

Hi Tim,
Try following again the instructions from http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/
bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMySQL
As John was saying you may be missing the mysql java connector jar.
In any case this is a DB configuration issue.
Thanks

Thanks to both of you but now it is not allowing me to create a class sheet for the
"XWiki.XWikiServerClass". I need this in order to set up the virtual wiki. Also
other pages are giving me the same error. (4.26)
Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page XWiki.XWikiServer Wrapped
Exception: Invocation of method 'substring' in class java.lang.String threw
exception java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1 @
XWiki.XWikiServer4,26?
<https://wmail.wssu.edu/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/4%2C26?parent=XWiki.XWikiServer&editor=wysiwyg>
Do you have any idea why this may be happening?

New subject: [xwiki-users] Blog
Hey,
I created a page (People) in my xwiki and I am trying to incorporate another blog for
that with forms and a Blog.Macro. I was successful on creating the page and forms but it
continues to post to the original blog rather than a new one like I want. Any suggestions
on what I can do so I will have two blogs in the same wiki?
Thanks for your time,
Tim
