[xwiki-users] No debian /stable packages yet?
by Matt Hammond 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

Hi, congratulations on the 3.3 release! I'm having a go with setting up xwiki on a debian based server. The /stable releases source list appears to be empty. Should I be using /releases instead, or will the 3.3 release be pushed to /stable shortly? regards Matt

Hi All, Right now when i log in as a user who does not have admin rights, i can see see all the details(like what activity admin or any other users did .For example modification in existing page or creation of new page) on page just after login (i.e webhome page on main space). *Is there a way i can hide these unnecessary details from specific group users?* * Another question Is it possible to configure so that specific group users can not be searched by another specific group users.* i have a requirement where i want specific group users can not be searched by another specific group users. Is there a way to configure this kind of stuff? Thanks.

As i enter to main space after login, i see these kind of options like watch wiki,document index,watch space. What is is the user of these features. As name * watch wiki or watch space* suggests, looks like whenever there is a modification/addition on on wiki, it will send the mail to user email id registered on xwiki. *Is that correct?* *What about document index? feature?* *Another issue i am facing is* For my user i have denied the the view permission on invitation space. But still i am able to see that ivitation space on main space webhome page? i dont give my user the feature to send invitation to others Thanks

[xwiki-users] A few quick questions about images
by Kaya Saman 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

Hi, to start with I'd just like to know how this page was created: http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/UserGuide/Diaporama in terms of how the images get changed every 45 seconds..... was this diaporama? If so there isn't really any mention of how to use it: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Photo+Album+Application Does Xwiki have a syntax for it that extends the [[image:img.png]] statement? I'd like to know as I want to embed some animated images of my own but with shorter time then 45 seconds. Secondly does Xwiki support any kind of text wrapping? If I put an image at the top of a space, the text usually leads on after the end of the object but can I make the text start at the top of the screen like with a word processor? Last question is basically about the background of a space (not the wiki background). Can this be changed without edition CSS?? I'd just like to change it for one particular space and subspaces but not the rest of the wiki. Kind of like including the html background statement - which doesn't work in Xwiki. Thanks. Kaya

[xwiki-users] OpenOffice in XWiki Enterprise 3.1
by Chris Meyer 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has experience setting up OpenOffice with XWiki 3.1 on RedHat, with JBoss. I am trying to find documentation on the process, but I am a bit confused by what I am finding. There seems to be some direction that OpenOffice comes with XWiki 3.1 ... "The Office Importer application comes pre-bundled with XWiki Enterprise versions greater than 1.8M1, so there is no need for a manual installation." ... (ref: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Office+Importer+Applic… ) But I am beginning to think that OpenOffice server must be installed additionally/separately, then configured to work with XWiki's Office Importer. If this is the case, the documentation is not clear on this. Can someone please clarify? If anyone has a write up on the process to install and configure OpenOffice on RedHat, that would be great as well. Thanks, Chris

[xwiki-users] Out of memory error?? Java Heap Space on Tomcat6
by Kaya Saman 03 Jan '12

03 Jan '12

Hi, first up Happy New Year to everyone :-) Secondly, I've been trying to stabilize my Xwiki install on FreeBSD 8.2 x64. My machine is a quad core box with 4GB RAM and not much usage in terms of people viewing the wiki etc.... I am getting this error: umbers=0&rev=11.1" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space Exception in thread "http-8180-Acceptor-0" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space I have attempted a resolution by including: - after Google'ing heavily to see what could be done to rectify the issue. JAVA_OPTS=-Xmx1024m JAVA_OPTS=-Xms1024m #JAVA_OPTS=-XX:PermSize=64M #JAVA_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=256m at the top of the catalina.sh file but as I've just found out it didn't work. The strange thing is that I had this wiki migrated to an old PowerMac G4 733MHz with 384MB RAM and even though the cpu went up to max due to the amount of swap space consumed the system still worked fine for longer then my BSD machine at least. Can anyone give me a hand in order to diagnose the problem? I have tried this also on Nexenta Core 3 (OpenSolaris) on a virtual machine running on my notebook with 2GB RAM dedicated to it which worked fine also and was up for many weeks even though pathetically slow..... actually I was running Glassfishv3 but it was still Java! Thanks, Kaya

[xwiki-users] Problems with attachement store file
by Anton Kronseder 03 Jan '12

Hi all, since I switched from database attachement store to filesystem store I have some problems. The first view days everything was ok, but than i restarted the server and since than: mysql> select * from xwikiattachment; +-------------+-------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------+---------------------+----------------------------+-------------+-------------+ | XWA_ID | XWA_DOC_ID | XWA_FILENAME | XWA_SIZE | XWA_DATE | XWA_AUTHOR | XWA_VERSION | XWA_COMMENT | +-------------+-------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------+---------------------+----------------------------+-------------+-------------+ | -2139505400 | -1980029764 | Assertions.pdf | 0 | 2007-05-17 23:19:13 | XWiki.RobertReiner | 1.1 | | | -2136668642 | -1260324256 | groups.png | 498 | 2009-09-03 17:38:38 | XWiki.Admin | 1.1 | | | -2096787253 | -152317460 | XWikiLogo.png | 1390 | 2009-09-09 02:00:00 | XWiki.Admin | 1.1 | | | -2083635922 | 1934194131 | msginfo.png | 0 | 2008-11-14 16:46:06 | XWiki.AntonKronseder | 1.1 | | | -2027337590 | -259212042 | general.png | 0 | 2010-09-18 03:19:58 | XWiki.Admin | 1.1 | | | -2003457988 | 151244875 | xwiki-enterprise-manager-wiki-administrator-1.5.1.xar | 0 | 2009-02-27 12:24:23 | XWiki.Admin | 1.1 | | Some files in the storage folder are empty (have size 0) as stated in XWA_SIZE have in the database. The ~METADATA.xml file states, that the size is 0. Are negative IDs OK (e.g. for XWA_ID) ? Sometimes, when I copy manually the correct file with size > 0 to the store and when I change the ~METADATA.xml accordingly it works, sometimes not. Sometimes when I upload an image with a German name (e.g. Wüste.jpg [is desert in english]) it is stored and also named desert.jpg. I guess some information (rdf) inside the jpg (some jpg metadata) knows, that its name is desert.jpg. Am I guessing right? I have 312 attachements in our xwiki. Do I have to delete the database tables (xwikiattach*) and do the attache process again? Files that xwiki does not know e.g. mytest.abc can be attached. They can be found in the store and are listed in the view but I can not receive tha file. Not by clicking on the attachement link, nor by rightclicking and choosing "save link as". BTW in between I had to change the server (hardware) and had to install a new xwiki. Afterwards I imported the Files (using xar import) and did a filesystem copy of the store. All Pages are OK, all attachements are listed, but can not be downloaded, besides the ones in the original xwiki.xar, which I also imported. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Anton Kronseder
