New subject: [xwiki-users] ah, very stupid mistake caused all these problems

3 Jan 2006

I was using an old version of the sample database from some documentation
that I think was stale.  I did not see the sample database download at the
bottom of the downloads page last time.  I have only encountered one weird
problem so far after reinstalling but overall, it is much smoother running
now.  When will the release with the next WYSWIG be ready?  My users really
want to use that as they don't know wiki language and find it difficult.  If
they use the current WYSWIG, what problems will I have on upgrade?
thanks and sorry for the spam!!!!!,
dean

Subject: [xwiki-users] please!!! how do I debug this(where do I start in the
code)?

So, I got XWiki Access Rights, and go to my XWiki.XWikiAllGroup which should
contain all registered users from what I understand, and I do see
XWiki.dhiller is on the list of that group.  

So, I see this 
Groups: XWiki.XWikiAllGroup 
Access Levels: edit, comment 
Users: <none> 
Allow/Deny: Allow 

This used to work great, but then something happened and XWiki.dhiller can
no longer edit any page.  I change the above stuff so Users: field contains
XWiki.dhiller and he can then edit any document he wants again.  This makes
no sense, he was already part of that group, but I had to specifically allow
him to edit pages.  All my users are locked out of the wiki now from editing
and I can't figure out why.  Where do I start to debug this issue?

thanks, 
dean

Hi Dean, 

You should edit the document rights for document XWiki.RegisterNewUser 

Groups: XWiki.XWikiAllGroup 
Access Levels: view 
Users: XWiki.XWikiGuest 
Allow/Deny: Allow 

This will allow users to view the register page.. 
You might want to redirect to the register page for unregistered users 
or modify the login.vm template to put a link to the registration page

 I tried adding these rights to whole wiki 

 Groups: XWiki.XWikiAllGroup 
 Access Levels: edit, comment, view 
 Users: <blank> 
 Allow/Deny: Allow 

 and this shuts down the ability to register.  What am I doing wrong?  
 I want people to be able to register and to be immediately able to 
 start editing. 

 thanks, 
 dean
