I performed a raw install: installed xwiki version 0.9.840 fresh on a Fedora Core Linux box with mySQL 4.0.26 and Tomcat 5.02. After I finally figured out how to install mySQL everything went smoothly. My wiki is up and running, and I started using it and building pages. But I noticed that everything I was doing is as the user: XWikiGuest. I want to create user accounts, and disable editing for anonymous guests. So, I click on "register" it takes me to a completely blank page. Just exactly like the blank pages you have when you've got a page and haven't put anything on it yet. So, I click on "edit this page" and it looks exactly like I'm editing a normal page - in fact it lets me edit the page. But no way to register new users. So, I go to the user's page: xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiUsers and it is completely blank too. Exactly like the above, I can edit it and do what I want on it, but no user stuff. So, I go back to my main page and click on "log in" and I try out the Admin password that is advertised on the support site user: "Admin" password: "admin" - and no dice. It grinds away for 1 split second and gives me back my log-in screen with the words I just typed in missing. No errors, nothing about bad passwords, nothing. I looked all over the documentation and couldn't find anything helpful. Ever seen this problem before? Is there something somewhere on the documentation site that I could paste into those two pages, using "edit page" to make them work? Thanks Kevin Miller
Hi Kevin, It might be the database import didn't went well or the initial database was not the right one.. Which database did you import ? The right one is http://forge.objectweb.org/project/download.php?group_id=170&file_id=4615 Ludovic [email protected] wrote:
