Hi All, I am having an odd issue with the panel wizard in my test and prod instances of XWiki. The users are trying to click on "Panel Wizard" via "Administer this Wiki" and the system spikes to 25% CPU but never yields results. Later, they try again, another 25% CPU and no results.... ultimately they keep trying until I start getting administrative alerts that the system is overwhelmed. To recover, I need to stop/start the application. However, that only allows the application to function until they do the same thing again. This is a critical task for them to add the necessary navigation to their wiki.

Anyone had a similar experience?

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this further? Thanks, Chris _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi Chris, to fix this, you can go to .../xwiki/bin/inline/Panels/Navigation and comment the panel out (same for the other one). You'll lose that panel, but you'll win your ssytem back.

Hi Chris, sorry for the late reply. Here's what you can try doing in order to debug this issue:   - Go to .../xwiki/bin/view/Panels/   - Try opening the various panels listed on the page and see if one of   them hangs (ie, its page does not display)   - If you find one, replace "view" by "inline" in its URL and comment it   out by adding #* at the very beginning and *# at the end, then save it   - Try accessing it again Once you've identified and "fixed" all such panels the panel wizard should work again. You could also log a JIRA issue noting that this should be fixed in the default distribution.

Thank you Joris & Guillaume, I have gone through all the panels in our Wiki, and the offending panels appear to be: - ArchivePanel - CategoriesPanel - RecentPostsPanel - UnpublishedPanel I have tried to access the /xwiki/bin/inline/Blog/ArchivePanel, and the /xwiki/bin/delete/Blog/ArchivePanel of each of the offending panels and have the same issue... CPU spikes 25% with every click. So ultimately, it appears that I cannot edit, or even delete these panels. Any thoughts as to how I might accomplish this in alternative methods? I want to get rid to these panels all together so we dont end up crashing the server... Thanks!
