[xwiki-users] [myxwiki] new wiki request
by Barbeau, Sean 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

I'd like to request a new wiki. At USF we're evaluating an instance of the OneBusAway open-source transit software system in Tampa, and OneBusAway requires an XWiki host for the content of the website pages. We'd like to host that content on MyXWiki.org. My Xwiki username is sjbarbeau. I'd like to request the server name of onebusawaytampa.myxwiki.org. Thanks, Sean Sean J.

[xwiki-users] Bug? search RSS feed is actually escaped <pre> page
by Joris Dirks 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

HI all, I actually found this a bit funny: At the bottom of search results is an RSS link, to a page like: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Search?xpage=plain&text=fail It looks like valid RSS code, but why doesn't it work? It isn't the code, it's a <pre> formatted piece of html, where all xml elements are actually escaped. So you see: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> But it actually is: <pre><?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> I can't think of something I did wrong on this or on my own install, so I'll create an issue in JIRA unless someone stops me in the next few hours. All other RSS feeds appear to be working just fine. Cheers, Joris

[xwiki-users] Exception when printing top menu
by CHENEAU-GREHALLE Nicolas 14 Aug '12

14 Aug '12

Hello, Sometimes, the top menu disappears and is replaced by the exception below. It's new since the 4.1.3 migration. The user exists and if we're going on another page and go back, the problem disappears. It's totally random but only in the virtual wikis (not in the main instance). Any idea ?

[xwiki-users] Importing from JSPwiki, question on spaces
by Matt Lamoureux 14 Aug '12

14 Aug '12

Hi all, My department is migrating from JSPwiki to Xwiki. We want to keep things simple, so when importing your war file I did not import the sandbox or blog spaces. That left Main, Xwiki, AppWithinMinutes, and Dashboard. AWM is fine, but I found out the hard way that Dashboard and Xwiki both contain parts of the software, so I can't delete or hide them. First of all - is that accurate? My second question is around the Main space. I thought we could import our files directly into that space, but apparently not - we had a page called "Search" which appears to have overwritten the search results page. I couldn't find any documentation about best practices when importing - like file names to avoid, etc. Do I have to create a brand new space, leaving Main, Dashboard and Xwiki alone? I just worry people will start clicking around and editing or creating pages in one of those other spaces... Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! - Matt L. I really don't want people to see the other spaces (to avoid confusion). I had thought that the main parts of Xwiki were kept in the Xwiki space, so I did the import into Main. However, that appears to have caused some other issues, since we had a page called "Search" which seems to have overwritten the default search results page.

First of > all - is that accurate?Actually you can delete them also, as far as I know. But some scripts will really "keep things simple", I'd say MUCH simplier, than without them. So, I'd advise to play with all this staff first :-) Sandbox you can delete also, but just think about some playground for users who see XWiki first time. Sometimes it was more useful than useless for me. > My second question is around the Main space. I thought we could import > our files directly into that space, but apparently not - we had a page > called "Search" which appears to have overwritten the search results page. > I couldn't find any documentation about best practices when importing - > like file names to avoid, etc. Do I have to create a brand new space, > leaving Main, Dashboard and Xwiki alone? I just worry people will start > clicking around and editing or creating pages in one of those other > spaces... > My experience says following: LEAVE XWiki's Spaces (e.g. Main and XWiki), customise it as you need AND use other spaces for data. In the future, in a case of upgrades or moving/renaming/deleting spaces you would highly appreciate keeping data OUT of sctripting :-) To avoid "smart hands desease" - just restrict edit rights to Main and XWiki (maybe some more) spaces. Simple view rights would make your scripting almost unbreakable. :-) There is more complicated way - change default page on XWiki start and build everything you need "from scratch". But depending on your future plans I'd recommend just to keep it in mind, but not implement at once: it is set globally for XWiki. For example, in a case of XEM, each Workspace would have non-standard default page, that may cause additional work in template customization. Probably, there are another ways to do this, but I didn't explore it yet. As a conclusion: much-much more easier to customise existing spaces-pages to you needs, especially from the very beginning. > Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated! > > Thanks! > - Matt L. > > > I really don't want people to see the other spaces (to avoid confusion).

BTW, besides the fact, that XWiki has access rights at page level even for each user, I use this very seldom. Much easier to use Groups and set access rights to Spaces. As for "confusion": if you will check Document Index link in top menu - you will see ALL spaces and pages you have view access rights. In my case - I didn't have any confusions at this point. But you're free to make a little Guide to users :-) It helps much. Other way is to customise XWiki's appearance and remove "extra" links. BUT if someone smart will use direct links - it won't help much: someone smart will have access according to his access rights :-) Kind regards, Dmitry

[xwiki-users] Problem Migrating Database from XWiki Ent 3.5.1 to 4.1.3 for MSSQL

I am attempting to clone an existing XWiki Enterprise 3.5.1 installation to test out how to upgrade to 4.1.3. When attempting to load the main page, I receive the following error: message com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Error number 3202 in 3: Exception while reading document [name = [XWikiPreferences], type = [DOCUMENT], parent = [name = [XWiki], type = [SPACE], parent = [name = [xwiki], type = [WIKI], parent = [null]]]] Wrapped Exception: Error number 3301 in 3: Exception while switching to database xwiki Wrapped Exception: Database xwiki needs migration(s), it could not be safely used! description The server encountered an internal error (com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context Wrapped Exception: Error number 3202 in 3: Exception while reading document [name = [XWikiPreferences], type = [DOCUMENT], parent = [name = [XWiki], type = [SPACE], parent = [name = [xwiki], type = [WIKI], parent = [null]]]] Wrapped Exception: Error number 3301 in 3: Exception while switching to database xwiki Wrapped Exception: Database xwiki needs migration(s), it could not be safely used!) that prevented it from fulfilling this request. I have tried a couple of different configurations in the xwiki.cfg. Here is my current configuration. xwiki.store.migration=1 #-# Whether to exit after migration. Useful when a server should handle migrations for a large database, without going #-# live afterwards. # xwiki.store.migration.exitAfterEnd=0 #-# Indicate the list of databases to migrate. #-# to upgrade all wikis database set xwiki.store.migration.databases=all #-# to upgrade just some wikis databases set xwiki.store.migration.databases=xwiki,wiki1,wiki2 #-# Note: the main wiki is always migrated whatever the configuration. #-# [Since 3.3M1] default to migrate all databases xwiki.store.migration.databases=all I'm using the following environment which is almost exactly the same as our current running environment (3.5.1): -Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard -Apache-Tomcat 7.0.29 (x64) -JDK 1.7.0_05 (x64) -Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver (rev 3) -Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 The database is a restored copy of our running 3.5.1 xwiki instance. The user account has full permissions to modify the schema. Any ideas on why the migration isn't happening? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Problem-Migrating-Database-from-XWiki-Ent… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I want this wiki for project-management of our non-profit-organization based in Spain (but with international members), starting with a team-based study on funds of documentation. XWiki ist thought to be an ideal means of communication and collaboration amongst the participants. Lateron we might use it for other projects, as well, on an international level. We hope to be admitted at the Community farm. Thanks in advance. -- Ingrid Kuschick E-mail : ikuschick(a)txoke.eu> Phone/téléphone/teléfono: +34 94 668 22 84 Cellular phone (Spain): + 34 603 517 105 Txoke!.
