[xwiki-users] [myxwiki] XWiki Enterprise 4.5.3-20130322 Upgrade
by Marius Dumitru Florea 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hi everyone, myxwiki.org has been upgraded to XE 4.5.3-20130322 (pre-release). If you own a wiki hosted there you should have a look at the release notes for this version at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ We also strongly recommend an upgrade to the latest wiki version. To upgrade you can either use the Extension Manager from the administration or you can download the corresponding XWiki XAR from http://myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/XWiki/Announcement/xwiki%2Denterprise… . In case you want to use the Extension Manager you have to do an advanced search for extension id "org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-ui" and extension version "4.5.3-SNAPSHOT". If this is the first time you install/upgrade the wiki using the EM then you may have to resolve many merge conflicts. The advantage of upgrading the wiki through EM is that you get 3-way automatic wiki page merge (after the first install). Otherwise, if you prefer to import the XAR, you should follow the upgrade guide available at : http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade#HUpgradingwikid… To be notified of the myxwiki.org server upgrade you can follow myxwiki on twitter: http://twitter.com/myxwiki Thanks, -XWiki Community

by CarlJ 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hi All, I seem to be having an issue with the Docextra tabs at the bottom of the page not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer 8 & 9 ( as seen here <http://i1338.photobucket.com/albums/o684/CarlJ88/DocExtraTabs_zps311bcec0.j…> ), from what I can remember this was displaying correctly until I upgraded from 4.1.4 to 4.4.1. Any help would be much appreciated thanks - Carl J -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Doc-Extra-not-displaying-correctly-tp7583… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] understanding Watch in XE 2.4.30451
by Ricardo.Julio.Rodriguez.Fernandez＠sergas.es 23 Mar '13

23 Mar '13

Hi, I'm trying to understand how Watch does work in a XE 2.4.30451. Please, must I see a XWiki.WatchListJobClass in all users? I see a XWiki.WatchListClass. But no Notifier is shown in Watchlist Preferences though, for instance, hourly email is scheduled and working fine. Thanks for your help!

[xwiki-users] Displaying annotations messes up German Umlaute in page content
by Richard Hierlmeier 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

We have an xwiki instance running in tomcat. As database we use mysql. We followed strictly the install instructions from http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationTomcat and http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Encoding The database collation is UTF-8. In all the other files (web.xml, server.xml, mysql.cfg and hibernate.cfg.xml) the correct encoding (UTF-8) is defined. The HTML Header of the page has also the correct encoding: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="de" xml:lang="de"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> ... However when displaying annotations all German Umlaute in the page are messed up. Bernhard Hopf already submited a Jira issue for this problem, however it has been marked as "Unresolved". http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-5913 Has anyone a solution for this problem. Richard

[xwiki-users] Rendering of a particular version of a document
by Ricardo.Julio.Rodriguez.Fernandez＠sergas.es 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hi! In an old XWIKI ENTERPRISE 2.4.30451, I'm having problems when rendering a particular version of a document, rev is not null and the asked revision exists. I got this... <div id="companylogo"> <a href="/bin/Main/" title="Home" rel="home"> <img src="/bin/viewattachrev/XWiki/IDISSkin/glIdisMotto.png" alt="Wiki Logo"/> </a> </div> Instead of the HTML code generated when rev is not used... <div id="companylogo"> <a href="/bin/Main/" title="Home" rel="home"> <img src="/bin/download/XWiki/IDISSkin/glIdisMotto.png" alt="Wiki Logo"/> </a> </div> It seems that the use of ?rev forces the viewattachrev action to be included in the img URL. I don't understand why does this happen. Please, could this be avoided? Please, check this behavior on line here... 1) No rev in the URL: IT WORKS FINE http://www.idisantiago.es/bin/OpenInitiative/TranslationalOmics2013 2) Rev is not null and revision exists: THE LOGO DOESN'T SHOW UP http://www.idisantiago.es/bin/viewrev/OpenInitiative/TranslationalOmics2013… 3) Rev is not null but it doesn't exist: IT WORKS FINE http://www.idisantiago.es/bin/viewrev/OpenInitiative/TranslationalOmics2013… 4) Rev is used but null: IT THROUGHS AN EXCEPTION AND THE HEADER IS NOT RENDERED http://www.idisantiago.es/bin/viewrev/OpenInitiative/TranslationalOmics2013… Please, is it possible to find a solution at least for case 1)? Thank you so much for your help!

[xwiki-users] [GSOC] XWiki is applying for GSoC 2013. Proposals and mentors needed!
by Eduard Moraru 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hello fellow XWiki community members, This year XWiki is planning to participate once more at Google's Summer of Code [1]. The organization registration period has already started today (18th of March) and the deadline is the 29th of March [2] (almost 2 weeks). 1. We need to provide by then a list of proposals and assign mentors for the students that are going to implement them. I would like to ask everybody that wants to participate as a mentor from the XWiki organization to review the proposals [3] list (we currently have 12 proposals) and add as many interesting proposals as possible. The proposals can be either new, or they can be revived from previous year proposals. Just navigate to the previous years, find the proposal you like and know about, go to its proposal page (click it) and press the "Clone to this year" link. Now you can assign yourself as lead for that project, update it's description if needed and wait for the student applications to start pouring :) 2. We also need to submit the actual application [4] of the XWiki organization to participate to the GSoC 2013 project so I would also like to ask you to review it so that we have a better chance of being selected into the program. 3. If you feel that you would like to help on improving XWiki's GSoC guides and application forms, please find tips for students [5] on XWiki's GSoC page, the student application form [6] and the lessons learned [7] from previous years participations. Thanks for your help, Eduard ---------- [1] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2013 [2] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2013 [3] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/#HProposedProjects28… [4] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/OrganizationApplicat… [5] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/WebHome#HSuggestedwa… [6] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/student+application+… [7] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/LessonsLearned

[xwiki-users] Can the User, Developer and Administration guides be downloaded and installed on a local XWiki installation?
by mrswadge 20 Mar '13

20 Mar '13

Hi, I would like to keep the User, Administration and Developer documentation for the current version of XWiki on my local XWiki site. Can I download these in some kind of package and install them to my local XWiki site? I also asked this in the FAQ on the XWiki site <http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/Can+the+User%2C+Developer+and+Admin…> . I will take care of answering the question here when it is answered. Thanks, Stuart -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Can-the-User-Developer-and-Administration… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] [myxwiki] new wiki request
by Jeffrey Hickman 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

I'd like to evaluate xwiki for collaboration, communication and documentation by people in the leadership (board members and committee chairpersons) of my small Unitarian Universalist church in Surprise Arizona. We are a non-profit. I'm a Systems Architect for a Java development team 10 hours a day and a debian linux user. At work I manage a Confluence site so I'm familiar with systems of this type. I understand the No warranty situation with this site and I am capable of self-support. My username on myxwiki.org is jeffreybhickman. I'd like the server name for the wiki to be uusurprise.myxwiki.org. Thanks, Jeffrey Hickman jeffreybhickman(a)gmail.com

[xwiki-users] Migrating 3.5 to 4.5.2
by Jeremie BOUSQUET 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

Hello, I'm trying migration of XWIki 3.5 to 4.5.2, and have some issues ... First, I must tell that I ran the queries described in [1], to cleanup the 3 stats tables. What happened though, is that during the migration I got an OutOfMemory error ... during migration of xwikistatsdoc. I relaunched with more heap (2Go), but got it again. I relaunched after activating safemode for that particular migration (R40000XWIKI6990), but then I got an issue on duplicate key for the xwikistatsdoc table: Caused by: com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3005 in 3: R40000XWIKI6990 migration failed while converting ID from [232911443] to [7825842251281349221] A quick analysis of incriminated rows shows (sorry for display): +----------------------+------------+----------------------------+---------------+ | XWS_ID | XWS_NUMBER | XWS_NAME | XWS_CLASSNAME | +----------------------+------------+----------------------------+---------------+ | 232911443 | 1956069455 | Main | | | 5956685394971351254 | 1956069455 | | | | 7825842251281349221 | 1956069455 | Main | | +----------------------+------------+----------------------------+---------------+ To me it seems that as migration process was interrupted, maybe stat with id 232911443 was migrated successfully (in a previous run) to id 7825842251281349221, but old row was not removed. So when migration occurs again, it tries to migrate that same line again and fails. So I will try to run again after removing that line, but in case it fails, is it possible to only: - put back my backup of the 3 stats tables only (as the rest was successfully migrated) - relaunch the migration Would I need to update something in the migration temp tables to achieve that ? (ie restart migration only for stats tables), or will it do it by itself as it knows that step was unsuccessful ? Asking that because migration is painfully long, so I prefer to prepare myself to loose less time ... tomorrow ;-) Bonus question: There are plenty of rows in xwikistatsdoc with empty value in "XWS_NAME" field. Are these normal ? Can I / Should I purge them ? Br, Jeremie [1] http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-8129
