[xwiki-users] I have deleted the xwiki space...
Hi xwiki users, I am a bit worried I have messing up all the things with my xwiki.. I deleted the xWiki space by mistake (by using the velocity macro to delete spaces) and I am not able now to log as admin any more neither to install the Administration Application (if it is the needed action to do..). Could you please help me? I didn't found any specific information about it online. Do I need to install again the xwiki?? Did I lose my work??? Hope there is a way to recover, thank you in advance Alessandro

Thing is Admin used itself is in XWiki space as well as all users so now all that is left is guest virtual user. But at the same time you deleted all rights configuration which make guest user an admin so you should be able to reimport admin app. You should probably import XWiki space from XE (or XEM) xar instead because I think there is some things that are not in admin app in this space. If the script does not put document in the trash you lost all your users and groups otherwise you can restaore them by going to the http://yourhost/xwiki/bin/view/Main/AllDocs?view=deletedDocs page (once you imported XWiki space pages since I think this page include pages from XWiki space).

btw you now understand why we have been reticent to bundle this feature by default :) In addition to what thomas mentioned you can always log in as superadmin too. See: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HEnablesup... Good luck -Vincent
