[xwiki-users] Publication Workflow Usage
by Mohnish_15 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

Hi Xwiki users, I have installed xwiki publication workflow 1.6 in xwiki 7.4.5 using the extension manager. I am able to successfully put a page in a workflow and then finally publish it to the publication space. But, for the second time I put a different page for publication using the same workflow and page being put to same publication space, all these mentioned in the publication workflow panel form, it gives me an error after I click on Start Workflow. The error is as follows: workflow doc ref: xwiki:Draft 1.demo 1.WebHome Action : start workflow.script.failed Help in this would be greatly appreciated.

[xwiki-users] What does "Version 8.4.3 is installed as dependency" mean?
by novnovice 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

I wanted to import a word document to see how it does. I have xwiki 8.4.3. The Office Importer Application needs to be installed, as far as I can tell. Next to it's name it says 8.3, and in the header it has "Version 8.4.3 is installed as dependency". It does not have the blue Install button; instead it says "Downgrade". Dependencies listed are xwiki platform - office - importer 8.3 and then "version 8.4.3 is provided" xwiki commons - component - api and then "version 8.4.3 is provided" I have not found anything in the docs that explain what this means, although I expect the info is there somewhere. Does it mean that I have to downgrade my installation to 8.3 in order to get this extension to install? But another extension "File Manager Application" does have the blue install button; and it has many dependencies on apparently older extensions like velocity macro 5.4.4. I can't make sense of it. I've searched quite a bit and haven't found anything relevant. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/What-does-Version-8-4-3-is-installed-as-d… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Attachment name encoding issue
by Ekku Laukkarinen 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

Hello, I'm using Rest API to send some attachments into my XWiki as a multipart post (pages/xxx/attachments). Posting works fine and attachments appear and are loadable correctly. However decoding special characters such as é in attachment names fails. Uploading attachments via XWiki interface works well. For an examle: "méthodologie" is UTF-8 URI escaped as "m%C3%A9thodologie" and then used in the post method. Filename appears as "mÃ©thodologie" in XWiki, which indicates that XWiki uses different charset to do the decoding (%C3 => Ã, %A9 => ©). However, my XWiki is setup to use UTF-8. Forcing iso-8859-1 encoding leads to "m%E9thodologie" and attachment names is decoded correctly. Is this intended? How should I encode characters that are not represented in iso-8859-1 encoding? Also Tika Parser throws an error at files bigger than 100 000 characters (.pdfs with a lot of images). Skipping images in .pdf would help a lot. I didn't find a way to increase the limit via XWiki configuration files. Caused by: org.apache.tika.sax.TaggedSAXException: Your document contained more than 100000 characters, and so your requested limit has been reached. To receive the full text of the document, increase your limit. (Text up to the limit is however available). Any help is appreciated

[xwiki-users] Is there an easy way to copy paste multiple images onto a page?
by novnovice 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

One question I have about the very useful feature of xwiki is how to drag and drop multiple images onto a page. Offhand xmarks seems to create an image attachment called image.png; pasting another image onto the same page overwrites the first image, using with the same name. Any way to have xwiki increment the image names? I know I can attach the image and then reference it in the page but it's more work. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Is-there-an-easy-way-to-copy-paste-multip… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Categorization of pages; tags?
by novnovice 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

I've been searching for docs and postings re categorization of xwiki pages. I didn't see anything built in so far but I may have missed it. I see there is a tags extension http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Tag+Application I'd expect categorization to be a major interest for xwiki users. Is this tag extension the main resource? Did I miss something built in? The page Content Organization <http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/ContentOrganization/> has nested pages and subwikis as the primary artifacts of organization. I will be creating a event tracker and it's going to be important to provide metadata for the posts. I'm very new to xwiki, but as I wrote this I realized that there are other built in features of xwiki which will help solve my needs. For example, if I can define a form or template (not sure about the terms) which contains a field Event Date, I hope that can become a hard data point which can be queried etc. Pretty sure this is so; and that solves some of the issues without a "category" or "tag" feature. Despite the fact that I'm positing a question which stretches far beyond my current near zero skillset with xwiki, I'd still appreciate any pointers or references. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Categorization-of-pages-tags-tp7602216.ht… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[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
