[xwiki-users] [ANN] A new extension released on Contrib: Limits Application
by Guillaume Delhumeau 14 Sep '16

14 Sep '16

Hello. I just have released the first version of a new application in contrib, the Limits Application. This extension prevents the creation of too many users or wikis in an instance. It can also limits the number of members of any global group you want. The reason behind the creation of this application is the need, for XWiki hosters, to add some restrictions on their instances to save their resources. For example, a virtual machine handling a lot of users needs more memory: it's fair that the client pay more to push back these limits. See: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Limits+Application/ Thanks, -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project

[xwiki-users] CSS only works inline
by Randy077 14 Sep '16

14 Sep '16

Hi, I only just started working with xWiki. I wanted to get some custom JavaScript popups working in my wiki page, but then I realized that the CSS is not being parsed by the page. For example, if I put it as a internal CSS code, and use the h1 tag in the body it will not parse. But if I use the CSS as, This is a heading. It works. Is there a particular way of including the internal CSS code in the xWiki? Thanks very much. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/CSS-only-works-inline-tp7601199.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Unable to upload larger files (30MB+)
by Polydectus84 13 Sep '16

13 Sep '16

I have searched all over the forums but can't seem to find a solution that matches what I am experiencing. I'm unsure what information you need, but here are the basics. XWiki Enterprise 7.4.4 on Ubuntu Server 16.06. MySQL, Tomcat8 If there is some sort of script that I need to run to show what other extensions are installed or specifics, please let me know. I am trying to upload a PDF that is about 30MB. I have tried adding it as an attachment to a page, but it just gives me an error, "An error occurred while uploading AE1920-228XUS.pdf" <http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7601141/Upload_Attachment_Error.png> I have also tried to install thru the File Manager Extension, but it doesn't actually upload. Here is a screenshot immediately after it "looks like" it uploaded. <http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7601141/File_Manager_Error.png> I have tried uploading smaller image files and those upload correctly. Things I have already tried: - Changed the Maximum Upload Size to 314572800 - php.ini - changed the max_upload_size value to 300MB I wish there was a log that I could read to see what the error actually is. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Unable-to-upload-larger-files-30MB-tp7601… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] XWiki Ldap authentication
by Dibyendu Das 13 Sep '16

13 Sep '16

Hi, I am trying to set up Ldap integration, and have installed both LDAP Authenticator and LDAP Application. I am using XWiki 8.2.1. In my xwiki.cfg file I have the following settings in the LDAP section: #-# LDAP authentication service xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl xwiki.authentication.ldap=1 xwiki.authentication.ldap.server=the.ldap.server xwiki.authentication.ldap.port=389 xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN=cn={0},ou=something1,ou=something2,ou=something3,dc=something4,dc=something5,dc=something6,dc=something7 xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_pass={1} xwiki.authentication.ldap.base_DN= xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping=last_name=sn,first_name=givenName,email=mail xwiki.authentication.ldap.update_user=1 xwiki.authentication.ldap.trylocal=1 Rest of the lines are commented. Note that there's nothing in base_DN field. I have provided the same values in bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin&section=LDAP&space=XWiki. But the page shows ldap.missingLdapService at the top of the page. Any ideas why this is happening? Thanks

[xwiki-users] ACL missunderstand
by Pascal BASTIEN 09 Sep '16

09 Sep '16

Hello, I don't understand very well how new ACL working with nested page with 8.2.1 compared to spaces ACL on 7.x version About ACL, what use on xwiki 7.0.1 is: - read for XWikiAllGroup (everyone) - write + create page for "XWikiEditeurs" on "Encyclopédie" space (and read for every other page on this wiki) (I know wiki spirirt mean everyhome can write but my Boss...) then what I use on xwiki 7.x: - on main xwiki, I forbidden Edit for XWikiAllGroup - on "Encyclopédie space" I allowed "edit" for "XWikiEditeurs" (+ read and comment) and forbidden "edit" for allow only "read" and "comment" for XWikiAllGroup because I know that in my case, ACL on space overwriting wiki ACL When I upgrade from 7.0.1 to 8.2.1, I encoutered ACL problem, no one could create page on all the wiki :-/ I find that the cause is "forbidden Edit for XWikiAllGroup" on main wiki. My questions is: how ACL overwriting working with xwiki 8.2.1? Is ACL right with "Rights: Page & Children" is similar to space ACL? What if I apply some ACL rights on a page under "Encyclopédie" and next I apply different ACL right with "Rights: Page & Children" on "Encyclopédie"? Rights of children page are removed? To conclude, do you know which ACL I must apply to have same rights thant xwiki 7.0.1? (I must apply ACL right on ALL first level space?) Thxs for any help. Pascal B

[xwiki-users] Advice needed for new XWiki Enterprise 7.4.4 Setup
by Polydectus84 09 Sep '16

09 Sep '16

Hello Everyone, I have managed to install XWiki Enterprise v.7.4.4 and have a few questions before really getting started. There are a few things that are unclear to me. Here is an overview for what it will be used for: We have several teams: Computer Support, Sales, Warehouse, QA, Ops/Development, Office Administration. XWiki will be used as a knowledge-base for known issues, procedures and file hosting. We want to have everyone be able to search for and create new pages/articles in any wiki except for Office Administration and perhaps 1 other. Also, for example, you are in the "Support" wiki and perform a search - we want search results from content in the "Warehouse" wiki to be included in the results. 1. Would you recommend that I create a "Wiki" for each department? 2. When creating the user accounts, should I create them while in the "Home" wiki (which is called Home by default installation), or am I doing that incorrectly? I am logged in as the Admin user and going to Administer Wiki > Users and Groups > Users > Add New User. 3. When installing extensions/applications - should I "Install" or "Install on farm"? I'm not quite sure what the "farm" is. Is it the Sandbox? I ask because I tried to create a "new Wiki" and it is like I have to start from scratch again and create those user accounts in that wiki as well and adjust any cosmetic changes, changes to the skin, applications/extensions. 4. As easy as it seems, I am having a very difficult time with the Panels Wizard. I have several other questions, but feel I shouldn't ask them until the above are answered. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Advice-needed-for-new-XWiki-Enterprise-7-… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Add Extensions Search broken
by Hofstätter Mario 08 Sep '16

08 Sep '16

It seems the search for extensions within the extension manager is broken, if the searched phrase has more than 1 char that is. This works: myserver/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?section=XWiki.AddExtensions&search=p&repo= This does not work: myserver/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?section=XWiki.AddExtensions&search=pdf+viewer&repo= ("There were no extensions found matching 'pdf viewer'.") It seems this is the case since you upgraded xwiki.org to 8.2.1? Best regards Mario
