[xwiki-users] Groovy using log4j output
by Tronicek 31 Mar '09

31 Mar '09

Hi, to automate group membership i wrote a Groovy script. It is called periodically via scheduler. This script use log4j to write some informations at info and at warning level to the console and to a database table. By now we are missing the output. It vanished since XWiki XE 1.6. Can you tell me how to enable the output again, please? Thanks. A simple extract (snippet): /* Groovy Class: $doc.fullName ([View Code>$doc.fullName?viewer=code]) #* */ import org.jboss.logging.Logger; class UpdateGroupMembershipClass{ def xwiki; def context; def doc; def log; // Logger void setXWiki(xwiki) { this.xwiki = xwiki; this.context = this.xwiki.getXWikiContext(); this.doc = this.context.getDoc(); this.log = Logger.getLogger("our.organization.XWiki." + this.doc.getFullName()); log.info("XWiki context initialized."); } /* other methods ... */ } /* *# */ -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Groovy-using-log4j-output-tp1575886p1575886.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Less resource-intensive plataform for XWiki?
by Adriano Lopes 14 Feb '09

14 Feb '09

I have XWiki 1.1-milestone-2.3619 available in my business. I use it as a repository for engineering technical information and legislation and as a Blog. My XWiki installation is the default one with the jetty container. I use Vista x64 SP1. The "xwiki_db.script" file is now over 3,5GB (mostly because I have many attachments) and I have set JAVA_OPTS=-Xmx2512m to be able to load XWiki. The process java.exe occupies 2,6GB of RAM memory. I have bought additional RAM reaching a total of 6GB to be able to use the computer while XWiki is loaded. XWiki as become an important part of my business and all my co-workers love to use it, so the information keeps growing. I will most certainly reach the maximum RAM (8GB) of my computer and will have to make large hardware investments if I am to continue using XWiki. Is there a less resource-intensive way for Xwiki to store attachments or a container more suitable for the way I use XWiki? Thank you for your reply.

Hello, I am experiencing some layout issues. I am using the right navigation panel. In the Blog WebHome Page, the right navigation panel is properly visible for some pages. However, for some pages, the right navigation panel either appears at the bottom or at the upper left corner of the page. I am having this problem only on the Blog WebHome page. How can I solve this issue? Thank you very much for your time and help! Hande

[xwiki-users] Lucene and substring search
by Reto Hotz 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hi, I have noticed that in the Lucene Search substrings are not found. E.g. The word 'Wallpapers' is on a page. When I search for 'wallpaper', 0 is found. The same when I search for 'wall'. When I search for 'wall*' or 'wallpaper*', the page is found. But this is not very inuitive for the user. The user would never think about using an asterisk. Can this behavior be changed? Thanks Reto

[xwiki-users] XE 1.6.1 issues with importing xar's
by DeVon Jarvis 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

I am running xwiki XE on windows 2003 on mysql 5.0. Until this weekend, we had been on 1.1.2, so I thought it was time to upgrade. I upgraded a version at a time (don't know if this was required, but I saw some versions had DB updates). Everything went fine through 1.4. When I deployed the 1.5 war, I noticed that the admin app was not there and needed to be imported. I was able to upload the xar file, but when I clicked on it to import it, I get the message "No documents found in the selected archive" I also tried this with the default xar and had the same issue.Thinking this was an software issue, I upgraded to 1.6.1 and had the same problem. At this point I created a 2nd database in MySQL and tried that. Still no luck. I can't import the admin or default xar files.Any ideas?

I would like to have a new wiki set up on the XWiki community farm. The purpose of this site will be to test out XWiki as a platform for storage and serving of business forms. I am registered on xwiki.org as jimslaughter. My proposed server name is DocsTestSite, however I am OK with another name if that is unavailable. This is more of a proof of concept site at this time. Thank you. -- Jim Slaughter

[xwiki-users] upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.6.1 -- new administrations tool is NOT working.
by jbessels 29 Nov '08

29 Nov '08

I've upgraded from Xwiki enterprise 1.3.2 to xwiki enterprise 1.6.1 on Linux Centos distro using kernel 2.6.18-53.1.21.el5. The upgrade has been performed as described in the documenation. In principle removing the old xwiki dir and copying the contents of the new 1.6.1.WAR i9 in /opt/xwiki and making changes to the xwiki.cfg file. I couldn't copy the old xwiki.cfg from the installed 1.3.2 because the contents has changed between 1.3.2 and 1.6.1. The hibernate.cfg.xml however hasn't changed between 1.3.2 and 1.6.1. Hence I could copy the old hibernate.cfg.xml file to the WEB-INF dir of 1.6.1. After the upgrade everything seemed OK. The content was still there as were the created users and spaces. As version nummer 1.6.1 instead of 1.3.2 was shown in the footer of each page. As of version 1.5 there is a new Aministration application which afaik is bundled with xwiki enterprise. The url is <url>/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences. When I try to access this page on my upgraded system I get the message "The administration application is not installed. Since XWiki Enterprise 1.5 the Administration is distributed as an application. You can download it from http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/AdministrationApplication.". I've double checked it on my windows system with Stable: xwiki-enterprise-installer-windows-1.6.1.exe. When entering the url I get the new Administration tool. At this moment I can't admin my xwiki system. PS. I did the upgrade at least twice. The first install was performing the upgrade manually, the second time I used a shell script to make sure I didn't make mistakes. In both cases I got the same results. Unless I interpret things the wrong way something is wrong with my upgraded system. Any help is very much appreciated.
