And when you install the WAR your DB is empty and there's no user so you have to edit xwiki.cfg and set the superadmin user. That's the problem everyone is having now in 5.x when they install using the WAR… Thanks -Vincent _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
