Re: [xwiki-users] datetime in xwiki rss feeds
by Sudhir Rao 22 Jun '06

Actually I saw that code. The simplest fix I could figure was this... In the page http://.../xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/WebRssCode, I replaced this line <dc:date>$currentdoc.date</dc:date> with <dc:date>$xwiki.formatDate($currentdoc.date, "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss")</dc:date> The fix however omits the timezone. There is java code at http://www.dpawson.co.uk/relaxng/schema/datetime.html which handles the timezone as well. The SimpleDateFormat pattern "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ" is close as it gives 2005-06-29T17:20:46.171-0800 This however does not work because of the missing colon. It needs to be 2005-06-29T17:20:46.171-08:00 The simplest way seems to be to use commons-lang utilities DateFormatUtils.ISO_DATETIME_TIME_ZONE_FORMAT.format(new Date()) Since commons-lang is already part of the distribution is there a easy way to add this code? I just don't know how to incorporate it in here at this point due to unfamiliarity with velocity, groovy etc. Thanks very much. regards Sudhir On 6/29/05, Ludovic Dubost <ludovic(a)xwiki.com> wrote: > > Yes..

bounty on XWiki?
by jeremi joslin 21 Jun '06

21 Jun '06

Hi everyone, What do you think about enabling anyone to suggest bounty on XWiki ? Example: I need a script for listing all the page in the wiki who contain the word "hate". I don't know how to do it. I'm ready to pay 50$ for this. We need to define some rule, but what do you think about this idea? For example, ubuntu: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/bounties/ Jérémi -- Blog: http://www.jeremi.info LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=1437724 http://www.xwiki.org skype: jeremi23 -- msn et gtalk : jeremi23(a)gmail.com

JAAS Integration with XWiki
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI) 04 May '06

04 May '06

We are standardizing on the Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS). I thought I heard that XWiki supports the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) standard, but haven't found any reference to it in the docs. Further, there are some articles out about integrating JAAS into Tomcat, which is another thing to think about. We actually are considering at least two methods here - a centralized PIN server and a RADIUS server for SecurID access, and both have clients that implement the JAAS interfaces. There are a couple of strategies that I could probably try: one is just to use the JAAS/Tomcat integration route. That would seem to give the most bang-per-buck, but that would (I think) not allow controls at the level of granularity that XWiki does, or would actually take controls away from the XWiki rights system. Another (actually my first idea) is to implement the various com.xpn.xwiki.user.api interfaces (XWikiAuthService, XWikiGroupService, and XWikiRightService) with JAAS calls. Anyone have any experience with this? brain[sic]

[xwiki-users] Cookies, domains and authentication
by Robin Fernandes 30 Apr '06

30 Apr '06

Hi, I have a couple of questions about cookies. I'm using v0.9.840 on my localhost. The following behaviour is consistently reproducible, and maybe as designed, but I do not understand it. Any help would be much appreciated! The value of xwiki.authentication.cookiedomains value has some effects on persistent login cookie creation, which in turn affects whether XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate(user, password,context) is called on every page view or not. Below is the outcome of some experiments with different cookiedomains values. Between each test I shut down Tomcat, wiped my cookies for localhost, changed xwiki.cfg as described and relaunched tomcat: xwiki.authentication.cookiedomains=localhost . persistent login cookies created: no (only style and JSESSIONID) . authentication on every page view: no, XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate(user, password,context) is ONLY CALLED ONCE (when loging in) xwiki.authentication.cookiedomains= . persistent login cookies created: yes (rememberme, validation, password, username, style and JSESSIONID) . authentication on every page view: yes, XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate(user, password,context) is called on every page view. xwiki.authentication.cookiedomains=calh (or any subtring of 'localhost') . persistent login cookies created: no (only style and JSESSIONID) . authentication on every page view: no, XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate(user, password,context) is ONLY CALLED ONCE (when loging in) xwiki.authentication.cookiedomains=some_other_string (that isn't a substring of 'localhost') . persistent login cookies created: yes (rememberme, validation, password, username, style and JSESSIONID) . authentication on every page view: yes, XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate(user, password,context) is called on every page view. I realise I'm probably using this setting incorrectly, excuse my lack of knowledge of cookies... but even so, this behaviour seems odd to me: 1. Why are the persistent login cookies not created when the cookiedomains value is a substring of the server name? What I think is happening from reading the code: in my examples the cookies are assigned a domain name that doesn't match the actual domain of the server (I guess 'localhost' is not a valid domain name for machine localhost :), so they are never set properly. The XWiki code has a basic check to ensure the desired cookie domain has some correlation with the server name and ignores it not... but it is fooled if the value is a substring of the hostname. Is this a standard way of doing things or is there room for improvement here? 2. Looking at the code I can see we need the persistent login cookies to extract the username & password in order to call XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate with valid params. But the way it's currently written, a user can bypass XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate if the persistent login cookies are not set: if I have a valid session cookie, I can just delete my persistent login cookies and browse the wiki without XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate being called. Is this expected? This thread would suggest not: http://mail-archive.objectweb.org/xwiki-dev/2006-02/msg00027.html I have spent some time looking at the code, but don't have sufficient understanding of the expected flow through (or even the purpose of) the numerous checkAccess, checkAuth, processLogin, checkLogin and authenticate methods, nor their expected interaction with cookies. Thanks for any info! On a side note, is it possible to configure things so that "http://myHostName" and "http://myHostName.myDomain.com" share XWiki cookies? Regards, Robin

DevGuide.FAQs Tutorial issue
by vtmagnard＠free.fr 30 Apr '06

30 Apr '06

Hi all, I have followed the instruction to create a FAQ using the following page: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQs+Tutorial When I created my document it was empty, and there was no form to edit. The code in the document was: #includeForm("XWiki.FAQs.FAQClassSheet") Where it should be : #includeForm("FAQs.FAQClassSheet") I fixed this issue when I recreated the FAQ Class with the wizard. I removed XWiki. from the following line #set($defaultparent = "XWiki.${class}Class") Is that a error in the documentation or I did mistake somewhere else?

can't see blog entries
by Dave Mangot 28 Apr '06

I haven't heard anything back, so perhaps my last post wasn't explained very well. When I enter a new page using "Add a News" on the front page of my Xwiki, my page shows up on the front page as a new entry, but never appears in the category I had assigned to it. What could that be? -Dave -- Dave Mangot Terracotta Inc. 650 Townsend St. Suite 325 San Francisco, CA 94103 USA +1 415 738 4059 dmangot(a)terracottatech.com This e-mail incorporates Terracotta's confidentiality policy, which is online at http://www.terracottatech.com/emailconfidentiality.shtml
