[xwiki-users] Editing an Application result in errors even when making no changes
by Dung Hoang 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

Hi everyone, I recently tried to install a few applications onto my XWiki 8.4.2 instance, some of them (namely, Idea Application & Task Application) get this strange error whenever I tried to click Edit and just click Next to explorer the feature: the main screen will display some kind of exception about velocity macro and Space (I am sure you can reproduce this to see the details). Also, in the Application left navigation, application name will change to some kind of id/reference (e.g. ideas.app.title, TaskManager.panels.name). So, I have a few questions: 1. It doesn't seem natural to me that a user with role of normal user can Edit an Application. So what does it mean by "Editing an Application"? And why would it be normal to allow a user (non-admin) to edit an Application? 2. I am guessing Editing an application is some kind of administrative activities. If so, is there any documentation regarding Applications administration in XWiki? I found this: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/Applications? but it covers only Installing and (a bit of) Usage. It references other documentation for Development of Application or XWiki itself but not administration. Thanks, Zoom

[xwiki-users] is it possible to migrate confluence to xwiki.
by rlc 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

howdy, i have been trying the Filter Streams Converter Application and this Filter Confluence XML module for a brand new 8.4.3 xwiki install, but not having a lot of luck. going back to basics i have exported a single page from confluence that contains no attachments and just 5 lines of plain text. the resulting xml file is 11k. i have run it through the convertor app and it seems to have imported it so that i can now see it in the list of available packages. but when i click that package i just get a throbber spinning forever. no errors from xwiki. nothing. i originally tried importing an entire space but that just hit so many java errors i had to go back to try just one page. it seems not even one page is possible to convert/import. any tips on how to migrate from confluence to xwiki or, gauging by the few google hits over many years, is it simply not possible? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/is-it-possible-to-migrate-confluence-to-x… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] StackShare
by Dylan Tuttle 02 Jan '17

Vincent, You may want to have two stacks on StackShare; one for the software and one for the platform. I presume the software would be approved as a Tool. It could then be included as a component in a Stack. Thanks, Dylan -- "If it's a good idea, go ahead and do it. It's much easier to apologize than it is to get permission." - Grace Hopper

by Polydectus84 02 Jan '17

ISSUE # 1: I am receiving a message when accessing the LDAP application that "LDAP authentication is not enabled. Please set LDAP as authentication service in xwiki.cfg" Here is a portion of my xwiki.cfg file as far as LDAP goes. Isn't that correct? #-# LDAP authentication service xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl #-# Turn LDAP authentication on - otherwise only XWiki authentication #-# - 0: disable #-# - 1: enable #-# The default is 0 xwiki.authentication.ldap=1 ISSUE # 2: Some LDAP users are not able to log in. We are receiving an bad username/password error. We even tried creating a new LDAP user, but we still could not log in. What should I check? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/LDAP-authentication-is-not-enabled-but-it… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
