[xwiki-users] Linking images in the wysiwyg editor
by Mark Zimmermann 31 May '11

31 May '11

Hello, we are using XWIKI ENTERPRISE 2.7.33656. Attaching of files to a wiki page is working properly with the WYSIWYG editor. If I want to link to the attached file another time from the same location or another location i do not see the file in the document tree of the link window. No file is displayed here, but if the file is stored on the same page it is only displayed in the first tab of this dialog. For better understanding, there is an image of these dialogs attached. Thanks for any help. Yours, Mark _______________________________________________ TROX GmbH Heinrich-Trox-Platz, 47504 Neukirchen-Vluyn Amtsgericht Kleve, HRB 4997 Geschäftsführung: Udo Brinkmann, Lutz Reuter Aufsichtsrat: Dr. Wilhelm Dettmering (Vorsitzender)

[xwiki-users] Feedback to the Xwiki concept.
by volker 31 May '11

31 May '11

I want to give feedback to the Xwiki concept. As a radiologist I am searching for a software that do three simple tasks: 1. Storing anonymous radiological images for teaching purpose. 2. Connect facts, notes,articles (text, PDF, PTT and JPG to this images. 3. Using a system to retrieve the information. Why? I often know that I have seen the phenomena/disease before. But I do not remember where I found facts to this phenomena/disease. So why searching for the same disease a second (10th) time? Se: http://dx.doi.org/10.1594/ecr2011/C-2126 Xwiki has a REST interface. I designed a universal image import macro(with autohotkey.net) that grab an image, open a tiny input interface for tags and drop the image and tags the Xwikiserver. Xwiki handle the image workflow quit well. Storing articles (PDF) to this image is working. Tagging and hierarchical connection is working. Lucene is doing the search job. So what is not working? STARTING WITH XWIKI I am not a experienced programmer nor a database freak. Working before with twiki.org and mediawiki.net on PHP. Never working with Java server before. So I started from a USB device with the Xwiki stand alone server on Windows XP. After some weeks I realized that IT IS ONLY FOR TESTING! (Yes it is informed on the page). MIGRATING TO MYSQL Using “MoWeS Portable” freeware for Apache, MySQL, phpMyAdmin. Export from “testing” and import to MySQL is not working for me because of large database and umlauts in page name and attachments. The ImportLargeWiki script is working after manual converting all umlauts and question marks from page name. Se next section. UMLAUTS I am working in Norway with not updated Windows XP and Swedish code pages. Developing at home on a German Ubuntu: In this setting it is not possible to generate a page with page name, page title and attachment name including German or Norwegian umlauts. 1. The page name must not include umlauts or special characters. 2. Page title is safe with umlauts or special characters. 3. Attachment name must not include umlauts or special characters . It is not optimal, but I can (now after intensive testing) live with it. I use a time stamp for file name and for attachment name. IMAGE WORKFLOW My automated import workflow is quit nice, so I used it many times. The upload and search for image dialogue is using the page title and is working god. I still miss the possibility to make a image annotation. (like in Wikipedia) and the link to full size image. Why not have a thumbnail of the image in search result page and AllAttachment page? But the images in the database are blowing up the size of the database. Performance is going down, handling import and export is getting time consuming. ATTACHEMENT WORFLOW Missing a search for “foo bar “ attachment in other pages/spaces. LUCENE SEARCH My search results are giving 10jpgs first and then the parent page. (It is a known bug). Id like to see fragments of the document on the result page. Highlighting the search text is nice. Is it a Xwiki issue or is it easy to realise a show text on the result page? Show me the images as thumbnails and PDF/ppts as icons. How to change the Analyser? Is there a Norwegian text analyser for lucene? (I know it is not a genuine Xwiki issue, but helps to make Xwiki more efficient) EXPORT PDF /PRINT Tables are not printed with border. The image positioning (right-left) seems to get broken in PDFs RELAUNCH Now with Xwiki 3-1.2. On the Norwegian XP with Swedish code page. 1. Plain Xwiki installation with FILE system 2. MySQL via MOWES. Just start MyPhpAdmin to add xwiki database 3. No Login on plain XWIKI!!! 4. Plain 3-1.2 XAR installation. 5. Install script LargeWikiImport from Xwiki.org 6. Export of XAR from the old system with ExportLargeWiki by spaces. 7. Import with LargeWikiImport. USING “do not overwrite” option 8. Give time to the system and lucene search. 9. One problem. All the old pages are “hidden” (browse tables with MyPhpAdmin) 1. Probably because used “backup”- option on import. (Is this right? Correct me if wrong. AND PUT SOME INFO IN THE SCRIPT) 2. In MyPhpAdmin update from hidden=1 to hidden=0 for all pages And now: A fast system with newest software version, working from a USB device on Windows and Linux. But there is a maximum file per directory bounder on Windows systems. FAT16- 512 FAT32- 65,534 files or folders per folder NTFS- 4,294,967,295 Is this correct? MISSING I want to include pages with sections to make a book. The hiracical section including is not working well. Lucene: The search syntax shoot be available inside the wiki. Why is the maximum upload parameter so low? Put it up to 1GB. And make a link to the edit page. Not “se in forum and go back to the Wiki”. It is confusing. How to migrate users? Why not putting all Xwiki system pages in a space. And only the WebHome in Main? On upgrading/migration process you upgrade only (first) space Xwiki. And in a second step you copy all your pages from Main to (empty) Main. Why not using LargeWikiImport and LargeWikiExport as default? I develop and use Xwiki for RadWiki (Radiology Wiki) on a daily base now. It is fun to use it! Thank you for your attention. Volker

[xwiki-users] Calendar and Ratings plugin not compatible with XE3.1-M2
by Ramon Gomes Brandão 31 May '11

31 May '11

Hi all, Despite my problems with the wysiwyg module, I could identify another break in XE 3.1M2. The last calendar plugin is not compatible (probably missing jars). The error root cause on stack trace at xwiki war deploy is: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.fortuna.ical4j.model.Calendar Also, the Ratings Plugin is not working on IE 8. It raises a page script error, as follows: Message: 'null' is null or not an object Line: 1 Character: 1334 Code: 0 URI: http://xwiki/xwiki/bin/jsx/XWiki/Ratings?language=pt I'm using both plugins in my instance. Any plans to get this fixed on 3.1? Regards, -- * * * * *Ramon Gomes Brandão* *//*

[xwiki-users] Debugging XWiki on Eclipse
by Baratóvsk 30 May '11

30 May '11

Hi there, I'm trying to debug XWiki Enterprise on Eclipse, using WTP and Tomcat 6. I've managed to fork and clone the sources from GitHub. I can build and install them to my local Maven repository without a problem. Now i'm trying to debug it on Eclipse, following this guide: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DebugXEWithEclipse I imported the xwiki-debug-eclipse as a Java Project. There is a validation error: > CHKJ3000E: WAR Validation Failed: > org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.commonarchivecore.internal.exception.DeploymentDescriptorLoadException: > WEB-INF/web.xml > I did not add any XWiki project to the Deployment Assembly. Do i need to add any core project before i can deploy it to the server? Or do i have to add all of them? PS: Tried posting this to the devs list but was denied. Is this the right place? Thanks in advance, Fernando

[xwiki-users] XE 3.1M1 Wysiwyg stop working
by Ramon Gomes Brandão 30 May '11

30 May '11

Hi All, I'm facing a big problem since yesterday, and no idea how to fix: my wysiwyg stop working. The fresh install was ok. Then I've replaced the original xwe folder with my compiled one from the sources (since I've translated it for pt_br) on the xwiki war, deployed it on Jboss 4.2.3 and the translated version did not work (the wysiwig didn't load, the loading gif keeps on the screen when I edit any page). Well, thought it might be a compilation problem. Then I've returned the original xwe to my war, deployed again and, unforntunately, it stop working, even with the version of the original xwe in english. There's no stack trace on Jboss (no exceptions) and no error messages. Is it somewhere on the database that I need to reset to return to the working xwe in english? It's going to production next few days and now I'm scared I cannot fix it in time. It was working and now, even returning to the original xwiki package, it doesn't work (I'm using the same populated database from my first fresh install). How can I fix it? -- * * * * *Ramon Gomes Brandão* *//*

[xwiki-users] Problem with "pre" Tags after upgrade to 3.0.36132
by Lars Vetter 27 May '11

27 May '11

Hi all Unfortunately, I have a problem with the "pre"-tags in my xwiki installation. Most of the input-fields had <pre> </pre>-tags before and after the field. They appeared after the upgrade from version 1.7.1.15366 to 3.0.36132. I've seen a solution on the mailinglist: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Unknown-macro-after-upgrade-td5912556.html However, I couldn't figure out how to change the default Wiki syntax. Can you give me a hint, how to change the syntax and fix the problem? Thanks alot and greetings Lars

[xwiki-users] Set rights for parent page and recursively for all child pages of the page
by Vincenzo Brancato 26 May '11

26 May '11

Hello, how can I set rights for pages recursively? I created a new page and set the rights for this page. When I create a new child page, the child page inherits the rights of the parent page. And this is great. But when I change the rights of the parent page, only new pages inherit the new rights. All existing child pages keep the rights that were set when I created them. Is there any possbility to set rights recursively? So that changes to the rights of a parent page can be applied to all child pages of this page? Thx Enzo
