[xwiki-users] XWIKI very slow after upgrade
by Gardner, Mark 10 Sep '14

10 Sep '14

Started with 5.0.3. The upgrade to 5.1 went splendid, performance was fine. But to upgrade to any version > 5.2, 5.2.2, 5.3, 5.4.5, 6.1 is very slow three times slower to render the home page. Subsiquent visits to the page are equally slow. I thought it might be a problem with the upgrade, but I did a clean install of 6.1 and it is still three times slower than my 5.1 install. ENVIRONMENT SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3 (SLES 11.3) Java Version: java version "1.7.0" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build pxa6470sr7fp1-20140708_01(SR7 FP1)) **IBM J9 VM (build 2.6, JRE 1.7.0 Linux amd64-64 Compressed References 20140627_204598 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled) [notice it's IBM JAVA] java-1_7_0-ibm-1.7.0_sr7.1-0.5.1 java-1_6_0-ibm-1.6.0_sr16.1-0.3.1 java-1_7_0-ibm-devel-1.7.0_sr7.1-0.5.1 rpm -qa | grep tomcat tomcat6-jsp-2_1-api-6.0.41-0.43.1 tomcat6-6.0.41-0.43.1 tomcat6-lib-6.0.41-0.43.1 jakarta-commons-pool-tomcat5-1.3-1.29.2 jakarta-commons-dbcp-tomcat5-1.2.2-88.34.4 tomcat6-servlet-2_5-api-6.0.41-0.43.1 jakarta-commons-collections-tomcat5-3.2-88.34.2 Mysql mysql-5.5.39-0.7.1 libqt4-sql-mysql-32bit-4.6.3-5.29.2 libmysqlclient15-5.0.96-0.6.13 mysql-client-5.5.39-0.7.1 mysql-connector-java-5.1.6-1.27 Tomcat Options: CATALINA_OPTS=" -Xms800m -Xmx800m -XX:MaxPermSize=196m -Djava.awt.headless=true -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100" Also tired lowering the Xms (as recommended by IBM Java folks) but did not help CATALINA_OPTS=" -Xms256m -Xmx800m -XX:MaxPermSize=196m -Djava.awt.headless=true -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100" The part that is most puzzling is that a fresh install of 6.1 is still sooooo much slower. Tomcat uses near 100% of cpu for any page read, and mysql uses 25% for any page read The tomcat logs don't have any errors (I turned the log4j debugging up to see if I could catch something odd) Any Ideas. I'm fresh out. -- Mark Gardner

[xwiki-users] Xwiki User profiles publicly accessible
by Werner Kok 09 Sep '14

09 Sep '14

Hi There, I’ve noticed that an XWiki installation has its user directory as well as full user profiles openly accessible to the public. Is this not a huge security risk? Or am I missing a configuration setting somewhere? For example, http://www.xwiki.com has all its users publicly accessible here: http://www.xwiki.com/lang/en/Main/UserDirectory and each user’s complete personal profile details is viewable. Is there a way to secure this information? Thanks, Werner

[xwiki-users] problem denying XWikiAllGroup rights
by Leonardo Kodato 08 Sep '14

08 Sep '14

Hi Users. Let's assume that I have two groups, XWikiAllGroup and IT Department, and I want to deny AllGroup's access to a specific page and allow the IT to view it. The problem is that UserX is member of both of them. When I deny XWikiAllGroup's permission, UserX is unable to view the page, when it should be, as he is member of IT Department(allowed to view it). How can I solve this without denying all other groups except XwikiAllGroup? Thank you.

Is it possible to complete an installation of XWiki 6.0 on a Windows Server (2008 R2 SP1) without that server having a connection to the internet? This server is running Tomcat 7 and MS SQL 2008 R2.

[xwiki-users] [ANN] File Manager Application 2.0M2 released
by Marius Dumitru Florea 05 Sep '14

05 Sep '14

Hi guys, A new version of the File Manager Application is available. The most notable changes are: * Support for folder upload on Chrome (tested with a folder having 1k files in its subfolders) * Special date and user filter on the files live table * Ability to download folders and multiple files as zip Note that I didn't have time to update the documentation page http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/File+Manager+Applicati… . I'm planing to do this after I release 2.0 final because I'm going to make more UI changes and I'd rather not update the documentation images multiple times. Sorry for this. Enjoy, Marius

[xwiki-users] Get the TEXT of a property instead of the value
by Jason Clemons 04 Sep '14

04 Sep '14

Hello all, I've been beating my head against the wall on this so I'm hoping someone can chime in and set me straight. I have a static list control on a page and I can easily access it's value using "$obj.getProperty('field1').getValue()" but I really need the TEXT of the property. In other words, what's displayed in my UI is different from what's saved in the database, and I really need the text that's displayed in the UI for my use case. In my class I've added properties of static list, and in the static list object I've added the following values 1=One 2=Two 3=Three When I use "$obj.getProperty('field1').getValue()" I get 1,2,3 and I really need one,two,three. Any help is greatly appreciated

Greetings, During the last few days we have conducted smoke testing (on Firefox 31 and in several instances on IE8 and IE9, within the “Fixed for” section) as well as full testing procedures on IE10. I have also conducted full testing on the mobile versions for smartphones and tablets for the 6.2 milestone-2 version. No major problems have been detected and reported in the case of the IE10 full testing procedure (which has been conducted according to the specifications found on test.xwiki.org) For more details regarding the minor problems that were detected, you can access the following link: http://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?jql=labels%20%3D%20ie10%20ORDER%20BY%20status… As far as mobile application testing is concerned, most of the issues I’ve found were tested on the smartphone and on the tablet version 6.2-milestone-2, and the tests have yielded outstanding behavior for the applications. The following link provides more data: http://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?jql=labels%20%3D%20mobile%20ORDER%20BY%20stat… Whereas this third link offers an overview of the issues and improvements reported by the team on the 6.2-milestone-2 version: http://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?jql=affectedVersion%20%3D%20%226.2-milestone-… We shall continue testing for other issues and improvements. Have a great day, Andreea
