I need to migrate a Wiki in Filesystem attachment Store mode because I have an existing wiki in which I need to import a big XAR file (>130MB) The procedure is explained here http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Attachments "If you already have a wiki and want to take advantage of the Filesystem Attachment Store, you should use the Filesystem Attachment Porter to move your existing attachments onto the filesystem. " but the script seem to have been removed a few days/weeks ago ... http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filesystem+Attachment+… How can I move from DB to FS ? Regards,

[xwiki-users] Mediawiki to XWiki Migration
by Polydectus84 02 Aug '16

02 Aug '16

Hello Everyone: I will soon be switching from Mediawiki to XWiki. XWiki has many features that we are interested in compared to Mediawiki. I just want to make sure that this is still the most up to date and recommended way to migrate Mediawiki data into a new XWiki installation: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Import+MediaWiki+To+XW… I'd like to be familiar with the process prior to actually doing it. Thank you for your time. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Mediawiki-to-XWiki-Migration-tp7600210.ht… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Removing old pages redirections
by Denis.Germain＠isocel.info 02 Aug '16

Hi, I have trouble renaming pages because of an old redirection on my 7.4.2 XWiki instance. I'll try to summerize how it happened : - First, a wiki page called "Framework" with a lot of subpages was created. - Then, the users wanted to rearrange the subpages so they created a copy which they named Framework.new - When they where happy with the new page, they renamed the initial Framework page in Framework.old. - Trying to rename Framework.new into Framework failed My problem is that by default, when you rename a page (in this version of XWiki at least), the checkbox "Redirect to new page" is checked, effectivement creating a HTTP redirect when users are still using the old link. I understand the advantage of this method : you can have the page renamed without breaking the existing links. But now Framework.new can't be renamed in Framework, as the Framework.WebHome URL points to Framework.old.WebHome. Even if I remove all the pages from Framework.old, I still can't rename it. Is there a menu/velocity script to remove these redirections ? Thanks in advance

[xwiki-users] Computed field (Display, Edit and Value)
by Gerritjan Koekkoek 02 Aug '16

In our class we have a computed field It shows a Date and two numbers - the date represents a observation date calculated based on the two numbers and date of birth. - The two numbers are -- 1 Years since birth -- Months - Together they represent Years + Months that a person reaches a certain milestone. (example: The child started to grab objects at age 0 years and 6 months, the child started walking at age 4 years and 5 months) We would like to see the following in our sheet: View mode: the date as a non-editable value and the two numbers with their labels Edit mode: only the two numbers with labels Preferably we would like to use in our sheet $objectDoc.Display('computed field') But when we use the values in Velocity as class.attribute.value.years and class.attribute.value.months But it looks like the requirement for $doc.display('') forces us to write html code in our computed field that we need to strip away when using the velocity.value? Any suggestions...

[xwiki-users] XE 8.2.1 NullPointerException in Create action
by Ramon Gomes Brandao 01 Aug '16

Hi everybody, I've just got running a fresh new install of 8.2.1 in a Wildfly instance (9.0.x) with datasource and PostgreSQL. No problems until there, and nothing special in config settings other than the default ones. However, as I try to create a new page (child or whatever) clicking on the "+" in any place, XE fires a NullPointerException. Here's the extract of the Stack Trace: Error number 4001 in 4: Error while evaluating velocity template createinline.vm com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 4001 in 4: Error while evaluating velocity template createinline.vm ... Caused by: org.xwiki.velocity.XWikiVelocityException: Failed to evaluate content with id [/templates/create.vm] ... Caused by: org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'getParameter' in class com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiServletRequest threw exception java.lang.NullPointerException at 284:/templates/create.vm[line 90, column 31] ... Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException Am I missing something in configs? Regards, RAMON GOMES BRANDÃO
