[xwiki-users] (RESOLVED) XEM: Allowing non-admin users to create new wikis
I used Thomas' workaround from XEM-113<http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XEM-113>, and it's working great. Thanks and very sorry for the hassle. On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 1:02 PM, Stanley Laufer <[email protected]>wrote:
Nevermind. I see the comments on the JIRA. I'm not 100% how to implement, but will investigate.
If anyone has developed documentation on how to do this, would you be willing forward?
Thanks...

I see the following JIRA regarding this issue:
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/WIKITHREEDOTO-14
But I'm not seeing any details regarding the resolution. Was a configuration option added to disable java rights checking for the current user? I scanned through xwiki.cfg, but I'm not seeing anything related...
Many thanks...

We're setting up a private XWiki wiki farm for our department.
Everything is working perfectly except for the fact that non-admin users cannot create new wikis. We'd prefer to allow registered users to create wikis on their own, without involving the admin.
Currently, when a non-admin user attempts to create a new wiki, they receive the following error:
Wiki "testwiki9" creation failed: Error number 9001 in 5: Exception in plugin xpn.xwiki.plugin.wikimanager.Wiki Manager Plugin?<https://sliswiki.sjsu.edu/bin/edit/com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.wikimanager/WikiManagerPlugin?parent=WikiManager.CreateNewWiki>: You dont have right to create wiki
Is there any way to customize XWiki to grant non-admin users the right to create new wikis.
In the case of a private wiki farm, where our user base is known, it would seem safe to do this.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
