Hi, I downloaded the installed the xwiki war manually. war: xwiki-web-standard-1.1.2.zip db: mysql 5.x tomcat: 5.x os: windows xp. all went fine and as a concluding step imported and installed the defautl xar: xwiki-enterprise-wiki-1.1.2.zip After this when I login as Admin and go to preferences page I get the following message: ======================== Notice This object is currently locked by XWikiGuest Click here to force editing ========================= I anyway continue by clicking the link and then after I make some modification and save preferences I get this huge stack trace: (part pasted) =========================================== Caused by: com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3003 in 3: Exception while manipulating the archive for doc Wrapped Exception: Parse error at line 1, column 102. Encountered: Mittal at com.xpn.xwiki.doc.XWikiDocumentArchive.setArchive(XWikiDocumentArchive.java:75) ... 53 more ============================================ This seems some know issue and xwiki has issued a FixRCS.xar as a fix to this issue I imported this file and installed it and followed the steps on the page imported. Then I get the following error: ============================================== com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3212 in 3: Exception while loading archive -1,991,671,769 Wrapped Exception: exception setting property value with CGLIB (set hibernate.cglib.use_reflection_optimizer=false for more info) setter of com.xpn.xwiki.doc.XWikiDocumentArchive.setArchive ================================================ Any idea where am I going wrong. Was my default application right (I had downloaded it from the xwiki.org) FixRCS.xar was found on the jira site as an attachment, is the version of this file correct. I am attaching this for reference.
