Thanks, I also had problems installing xwiki deb package, here's what
worked for me:
Use Oracle Java (not OpenJDK):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
Install xwiki (using LTS & MySql)
wget -q "http://maven.xwiki.org/public.gpg" -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo wget "http://maven.xwiki.org/lts/xwiki-lts.list" -P
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/
Other versions are:
http://maven.xwiki.org/releases/xwiki-releases.list: all released
versions including milestones and release candidates (beta)
http://maven.xwiki.org/stable/xwiki-stable.list: all released versions
excluding milestones and release candidates (stable)
apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xwiki-enterprise-tomcat7-mysql
You will get this error:
Setting up xwiki-enterprise-tomcat7-common (7.4.4) …
* no JDK or JRE found – please set JAVA_HOME
Fix it by adding the JAVA_HOME to tomcat and do also increase the
memory allocated:
nano /etc/default/tomcat7
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle
JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=192m
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC"
service tomcat7 restart
Configure xwiki
nano /etc/xwiki/xwiki.cfg
xwiki.authentication.validationKey=AKEY
xwiki.authentication.encryptionKey=ANOTHERKEY
http://yourIPorDNS:8080/xwiki/
You should see the “Distribution Wizard” just follow the steps! I
installed the “XWiki Enterprise Flavor – Main Wiki”. You can now login
with the user “Admin” and password “admin” (change this as soon as
possible).

Well, I managed to install XWiki using the Debian
package installation, but
the installation varied a bit.
Here is what worked for me:
Installed Ubuntu Server 16.04.1
wget -q "http://maven.xwiki.org/public.gpg" -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo wget "http://maven.xwiki.org/lts/xwiki-lts.list" -P
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
sudo apt-get install tomcat8
sudo service tomcat8 restart
sudo apt install xwiki-enterprise-tomcat8-mysql
sudo reboot
Only then was I able to initialize XWiki. I am so happy to finally get it
installed! Still trying to learn the layout and get a navbar set up, like
you have on
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationViaAPT
(Home, About, Projects, etc).
