XWiki down for several hours at a time at weekends?
by Tim Chippington Derrick 24 Jul '06

24 Jul '06

Hi Is the xwiki hosting site down for hours at a time at weekends? We have found several times that we can't get at the main site or our own 2 wikis, even though we can still ping the host. Seems to be back again now.

Xwiki installation on MySQL 4.0.25
by Jan Galinski 24 Jul '06

24 Jul '06

Hi. I need to install xwiki on a debian sarge machine. Unfortunately, the mysql-dummy file uses syntax that doesn't work with the sarge-version 4.0.25 of MySQL. Can anyone who already did the installation on sarge share his changed file? Or is there a way to install without dummy db? Thanks Jan

package export/import
by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI) 21 Jul '06

21 Jul '06

I've seen some references to this, and even an XML package file for one application project, but no clear idea of how to create or consume a package of XWiki documents for export. Has a publicly available script been built to accomplish this? I'm sure that it wouldn't be a monstrous effort, but would of course like to have a common tool to use. Brian M.
