Hi there, thanks to all of you for your very fast answers! I got it running on my desktop client and I also tried it on your test server. The import itself worked somehow. Even images got correctly imported. Nevertheless it seems there is an issue with tables in XE 1.8M1. At first it cannot import tables correctly, they are totally screwed up. But what is even worse I cannot even create a table that has linebreaks within the cells from scratch and bullet lists are disabled for tables. When adding a linebreak to a table this screws up the whole document. As the documents we have do heavily rely on tables this is a total knock out criteria for me. With version 1.7.1 I could create those tables, but converting them manually is just too much work. Any ideas are highly appreciated Mit freundlichen Grüßen Thomas Baier BWI Systeme GmbH SD IT / BKZ UHD Nahmitzer Damm 12 12277 Berlin E-Mail: thomas.baier@bwi-systeme.de Sitz der BWI Systeme GmbH: Meckenheim - Registergericht Bonn - HRB 14 650 - USt-IdNr: DE251121155 Geschäftsführung: Johannes Nagel (Sprecher), Christoph Dibon Asiri Rathnayake <asiri.rathnayake@gmail.com> Gesendet von: devs-bounces@xwiki.org 26.01.2009 18:56 Bitte antworten an XWiki Developers <devs@xwiki.org> An XWiki Developers <devs@xwiki.org> Kopie Thema Re: [xwiki-devs] MediaWiki2XWiki Hi, On Mon, Jan 26, 2009 at 10:26 PM, Guillaume Lerouge <guillaume@xwiki.com>wrote:

Dear community,
I'm just trying to set up a prototype with XWiki to test if it fits our companies needs. I have several MS Office documents that I have to import. Simple copy and paste doesn't work very well so I thougt, I can open the MS Office files in OpenOffice export them as MediaWiki and then use the MediaWiki2XWiki Extension. I just need a fast workaround to get thinks up and running for presentation. Is there any better way of doing this?
Unfortunately I could not get the MediaWiki2XWiki Extension running. I pastet the code into a new wiki page and then got the error Error number 4002 in 4: Error while parsing groovy page XWiki.Code Wrapped Exception: startup failed, Script1.groovy: 7: unexpected token: import @ line 7, column 52.
Can anybody tell me howto fix the import problem or is there any service in the public web where I can enter my MediaWiki code and copy and paste the resulting XWiki code?
We've got much better for you in store: the brand new XWiki Office document importer :-) You can try it out from
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/OfficeImporterApplication If you want to try it out, you can use http://91.121.237.216/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/OfficeImporter (this is our test server) username: user password: user123 Don't put anything confidential there though, this is a public server.
