[xwiki-users] exporting an old XWiki to a new clean XWiki
by Mark Elliot 19 Jun '14

19 Jun '14

In my last e-mail I discussed a bug where widgets are not displayed in the administration web pages of our old XWiki. In an effort to fix this bug, I have tried exporting the old XWiki into a new clean installation. The issue is the bug comes into the new XWiki on importing. I can export the pages one at a time without getting the bug. However, the links do not come with them. This is a very tedious effort to resort the web site this way. Does anyone have suggestions for tools for systematically exporting and importing the web pages? Also, what do we do about the users and other configured spaces? Any other "outside the box" thinking or solutions are welcome.

[xwiki-users] Problem upgrading from 5.4.4 to 6.1m2
by mctoz 18 Jun '14

18 Jun '14

Well I really only intended to go from 5.4.4 to 5.4.5 but one thing let to another so I decided to go with the latest milestone release. It all appears to be working OK, but I'm getting an error during the migration phase, where is says that some of the existing 5.4.4 UI pages/packages are "not valid"...so the migration fails to complete properly. (When I restart the container I get presented with the migration gui again). My own wiki content appears to be OK, but now I'm not sure about the system pages. Are there any know issues with the migrator? Any way to bypass this validity check and force it anyway?

[xwiki-users] exporting multiple XWiki pages (to PDF)
by De Wel, Kristof 18 Jun '14

18 Jun '14

Hi All, We are looking to export a set of XWiki pages to a single document (PDF) According to http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1289 an improvement request was created in 2007 to add a UI for exporting multiple pages as PDF. Anno 2014 this request is still 'Open'. We turned my attention to various extensions : * http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Multipage+Export+Appli… * http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/MultipagePdfExport+App… * http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/PDF+Export+Collection+… None of these extensions work with the XWiki version we've installed.(5.4.4) Does anybody have a tip for me how I can achieve the export in a somewhat elegant manner ? (Following works but is not practical considering the amount of pages to be exported: http://server/xwiki/bin/export/Space/Page?format=pdf&pages=Admin.Page_A&pag…...) Does anybody know whether "XWIKI-1289" will ever make it to XWiki''s roadmap? Thanks , Kristof

[xwiki-users] How xwiki was magically fixed.
by crocket 18 Jun '14

18 Jun '14

A lot of images and attachments went missing after xwiki upgrade. However, after rebooting my machine, xwiki was magically fixed. I guess something made PostgreSQL instance refuse to serve its contents and restarting the instance solved the problem.
