Just added in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication The specific targets for LDAP authentication are: log4j.logger.com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.ldap=debug log4j.logger.com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP=debug The first line is for XWiki LDAP tools and the second is for authentitication process itself. > > 2)Is it possible to replicate the groups in LDAP to groups in XWIKI and > replicate the corresponding groupmemberships for a user during login so > that the authorization is done through XWiki based on the user's group > association in LDAP? Just added in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/LDAPAuthenticationUseCa… You can use xwiki."authentication.ldap.group_mapping" to link LDAP groups to existing XWiki groups.

[xwiki-users] import xar into workspaces under xem
by Dan Svoboda 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hi Jerome, Now that I have workspaces running under xem, I want to import content from a previous workspaces instance that I've exported as an archive. The new Global admin page doesn't offer "Import", and entering the url directly takes me to the Global admin page. How can I import an archive? Thanks, Dan

[xwiki-users] Loginsubmit
by Spinring 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hello, I am trying to change the registration page, so that it redirects to the pevious page after you have registered (like after you have logged in) I know, that login.vm and registerinline.vm are called in global.vm. My first try was to add xredirect=$xwiki.getURLEncoded($logredir) to the $regurl, but it did work. I now asume that sending the parameters (like current page/requested page) is somehow handled when I call $doc.getURL("loginsubmit") like in login.vm. Where can I find the template/page behind this url? Or the other way round. What is responsible to call the xwiki/bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin page everytime I click on "edit" a page? I hope you can give me an answer. Thanks!

I want to get the attachments to the current page into a database list class dropdown menu. I figure that there's some specific hibernate query that I can use, but I can't seem to figure it out. So, does anyone know how to do this? Thanks, /Daniel ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Daniel T.

[xwiki-users] Admin problem - Panel Wizard changes not saving.
by Evan Pease 01 Oct '08

01 Oct '08

Hi, We installed xwiki and are testing the administrative interfaces. We're having a problem with the Panel Wizard. When we make a change to the Page Layout (i.e. Moving the side column to the left instead of the right) and hit save, the changes are never saved. A message pops up saying the changes were successful but when you visit a page they are not. We are using XWiki Enterprise 1.5.1.12494. Thanks, Evan

Re: [xwiki-users] virtual workspaces
by Jerome Velociter 30 Sep '08

Hello Dan, Better reply to the list than to myself directly so that knowledge is available for everybody and searchable through the archives. Concerning your problem, I have a question : did you imported the "prepared XAR" over an already imported XAR ? If this is the case, it means you were probably logged-in with the local administrator, and not the one from the manager wiki. In this case, you should first delete the local administrator (delete the XWiki.Admin page) and reimport the prepared xar, as global admin. Hope this help, tell me if it was your problem. Jerome.

Re: [xwiki-users] Virtual wiki name can't be reused after deletion

Oh, i see... I've created the database user in advance to make sure he has the proper tablespace for data. It worked for my "wikitemplate" user. Think i'll change the wiki manager skript just to inform me about already present database users and allow the creation of the virtual wiki.
