Hi all friends,
i am currently using serveral xwiki instances (xwiki-enterprise 1.3).
I need to try xwiki-enterprise-manager to be able to create virtual wiki
sites. I am having a really hard time with installation.
I have used
xwiki-enterprise-manager-web-1.1.war<http://forge.objectweb.org/project/…
,
tomcat 5 as a container, mysql as a database. I processed exactly same steps
as i did several times installing xwiki enterprise.
I have put war file into tomcat5 webapps directory, started/stoped tomcat in
order to unpack it, configured hibernate..xml to mysql database. I have
installed mysql connector to lib directory. I have copied custom log4j file
to classes directory. I have created a wiki mysql user with full rights to
create databases , created a wiki database.
When i will point on http://mydomain:8080/xwiki according to xwiki.log it
will fill mysql database xwiki and then i will get "page cannot be displayed
message" (internet explorer message). I found no error in xwiki.log, no
error nowhere else. When i will point it again at that adress
http://mydomain:8080/xwiki still nothing -page cannot be displayed and zero
messages in log.
I spent 4 hours and that is enought time for me to ask for a help.
Thanks in advance!

Have you checked this page :
http://manager.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation ?
Specifically, I see no mentions of plugin in the setup you tried ->
did you configure them properly ?
Hope this helps,
Guillaume

Hi,
no i was thinking that enterprise-manager is bundled. It means, that i will
install it and trought that i will be able to create virtual wikies on
demand. Is it so?
If not - what do i exactly need to have installed ... actually maybe i am
just looking at that page too long, but it is pretty messy ...
I was thinking that Install XEM from a distribution part on wiki is what i
need to do and Convert an existing XWiki Enterprise instance part is there
in case i have wiki enterprise installed and i want to install a manager
plugin into existing instance in order to transfer it to enterprise-manager.
Thanks for your time and help.

Hi again,

Alas I'm not a XEM installation expert, but yes, this is what XEM
offers : you can create additional virtual wikis on demand.
If not - what do i exactly need to have installed ...

Right now I think you'd be better off starting from scratch by
following the instructions for setting up a new XEM as provided here :
http://manager.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation , and
then make an export of the pages you need in your current XE and
import them again in the XE of your choice that you will have created
from your brand new XEM.
I know it is possible to turn a XE into a XEM, but this will at least
imply the need to activate the relevant plugins. Hopefully some people
from the XEM team will be able to provide you with more complete
answers within a few days.

What exactly is your domain ?
By default in virtual mode XWiki Platform need to have a descriptor
for the wiki you want to access except if you domain name starts with
"www" or if you acces using direct IP address. I think your problem is
that you are trying to access your main wiki with "something.ext"
domain. To be able to access you main wiki with "something.ext" you
have to add this alias in its descriptor :
/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiServerXwiki
It is explained in
http://manager.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation#HConvertane…
but i will add a more warning box for the two ways to install XEM
because this XWiki platform domain management is not very clear. I
think that we should maybe add an option in xwiki.cfg to indicate if
wrong domain goes to main wiki in place of showing an error.
I spent 4 hours and that is enought time for me to ask for a help.
Thanks in advance!
