[xwiki-users] Inline forms in XWiki Syntax 2.0
by Lewis Denizen 20 Mar '09

20 Mar '09

Hi xwiki-users, When attempting to include an inline form in XWiki Syntax 2.0, the resulting page always gets wrapped in a {pre} tag. It says this was to prevent further rendering of the form, but this doesn't work too well with the 2.0 syntax since {pre} is not a valid tag (just renders it as a literal string). I just created a custom form (using the {{html}} tag), but what is the preferred way of creating inline forms using the 2.0 syntax? Is this ( http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2891) the JIRA that tracks this issue? Also, I'm not 100% certain, but it also seems that a "#includeForm(" needs to exist in order for the default "edit" mode to enter inline editing (I think viewheader.vm is used to render the top panel... and there's a check [#if($doc.content.indexOf("includeForm(")!=-1)], which probably detects this) - again, will this still hold true in the 2.0 syntax? Thanks in advance! -- Lewis

We wanted to work on improving XWiki.org, but it got delayed with the release of XWiki Enterprise 1.8 taking most of our time. If you've got a little time, we'd be very happy to have you contribute the program you wrote on http://code.xwiki.org/ and improve the documentation in places where you found it confusing (adding details / links where needed). All you need to do this is an account on xwiki.org and then, well, it's a wiki ;-) Guillaume Best regards, > > Ari > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > users(a)xwiki.org > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users > -- Guillaume Lerouge Product Manager - XWiki Skype ID : wikibc http://guillaumelerouge.com/

[xwiki-users] Moving from AD LDAP to Kerberos
by Samuel Lee 19 Mar '09

19 Mar '09

How do I allow Kerberos authentication for just one of my XWiki's in the xwiki farm? I had an AD LDAP authentication setup, but we're moving to a Kerberos structure for just the one xwiki. -Do I need to comment out all the LDAP parameters? -How do I pass the Kerberos Authentications to just one XWiki in the farm? -In your documentation you mention ":Place the authkerb.jar jar in the WEB-INF/lib directory of Xwiki in Apache Tomcat." Where is the authkerb.jar file? Sam

[xwiki-users] Hibernate exception when trying to delete attachment

Hi, we are running XWiki 1.7.1 on Tomcat 6 with MS-SQL. When deleting attachments, in general, everything works fine. But on some files we get a hibernate exception. We can't figure out why this error appers with some attachments. Here's the exception: A problem occured while trying to service your request. Please contact the support if this happens again. Detailed information: Error number 0 in 3: Exception while hibernate execute Wrapped Exception: The database returned no natively generated identity value com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 0

[xwiki-users] Using session inside a class
by Jan Cerny 19 Mar '09

19 Mar '09

Hi, I'm trying to access session from a Groovy class, but I'm not successful. When I have a simple script: <% session = request.getSession(true); counter = session.getValue("counter") %> - everything is OK. But when I have a class: class User { def counter = 0; void setUser() { session = request.getSession(true); counter = session.getValue("counter") } String showCounter() { return this.counter; } } The Error message is No such property: request for class: User. So how should I access session from the class? Thanks, Zik

[xwiki-users] class database list property should be empty when creating document
by Sebastian Kannengiesser 19 Mar '09

19 Mar '09

Hi guys, I created a few days ago some documents based on my own class which has databse list properties. In the respective template fields, there was no entry selected when creating the document which is the behaviour I need. When I now create a document based on the same class the first entry is selected a priori and there is no way to deselect, i.e. have nothing selected, it. The old documents still have the ability to deselect the entry in inline editing mode. Can you guys please tell me, what might have happened here or could it be a bug? I dont't understand this apparently undeterministic behaviour. Many thanx in advance. BTW, this is in XWiki 1.7.2. Cheers Sebastian
