[xwiki-users] [Help] Help us improve the XWiki documentation by telling us what's missing
by Vincent Massol 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hi XWiki users, The XWiki projects needs your help. We'd like to improve the documentation on xwiki.org but we need your help to tell us what should be improved in your opinion. To do so we've created a JIRA project for listing stuff to do: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKIORG It would be a great help if you could register there and create JIRA issues for anything you think should be improved on xwiki.org. Please try to create very specific and focused issues so that they are actionable easily (for example an issue saying "Improve xwiki.org documentation" would not help much ;) but one that would say for example: "Provide documentation on how to use the DBListClass" is useful). Thanks a lot for your help! -Vincent on behalf of the XWiki Dev Team

[xwiki-users] How to capitalize on XWiki Classes, Objects, and Properties at presentation level?
by mohit gupta 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

I went thru XWiki Classes, Objects, and Properties topic given at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/DataModel. I understand the concept of Classes, Objects, and Properties as i am familiar with java. Here is the statement given at the same link *This area explains XWiki's data model of Classes, Properties, and Objects for those users who want to build applications primarily at the presentation level. (which makes it second generation wiki). It will help you understand how you can achieve significant features by programming at this level alone.* Basically i want to understand how i can capitalize the concept of Classes, Properties, and Object at presentation level. To understand this throrouly i created two scenarios:- First i created the space MySpace and created two pages i.e page1 under this space. here are th scenarios scenario1:- i edit the class MySpace.page1 and added a property password ang gave some values for field Name, Pretty Name,Custom Display etc and saved it. *But i did not see any change at presentation level of MySpace.page1.* scenario1:- Similarily i edit the objects for MySpace.page1 and added a class mail ang gave some values for field Subject,Language, Text,HTML etc and saved it. *But again i did not see any change at presentation level of MySpace.page1.* *It would be great if somebody can explain with small example what i can achieve with edit the class and editing the object.* *For Example :-Like what i can expect after edition in my scenarios.* *I think its a vey useful feature but somehow it is not documented in detail at that link or may be i am not able to understand. Looking for your expert somments.* ** ** Thanks

[xwiki-users] on Calendar Application
by Ricardo.Julio.Rodriguez.Fernandez＠sergas.es 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Hi! I've found this looking for the current state of the calendar application... http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/CalendarApplication As far as I see, the features desscribed there are far ahead from the current Calendar Application available here... http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Calendar+Application Please, is there any new draft/beto release of the new application described in the Incubator site? Has it been already developed? Is it just an idea? Several of the features described there will extremelly welcome by our research team! Any new will be welcome! Thanks!

[xwiki-users] using Jelastic to host xwiki 3.5
by Niels Mayer 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Comment I posted to http://blog.jelastic.com/2012/02/21/how-to-deploy-xwiki-to-jelastic-cloud-s… stating a few additional steps needed for http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation ............................. Thanks for making this available. Jelastic is fantastic and your description got me 99% of the way there…. However, after setting up Xwiki and starting tomcat, you also need to upload, via ‘bin/import/XWiki/XWikiPreferences’ , xwiki-enterprise-ui-all-3.5.xar . However, uploading this large file into the “empty” Xwiki dies with an error that suggests max_allowed_packet is too small. http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMySQL#HMySQ… changing mysql config my.cnf file from 1M to 32M ‘max_allowed_packet’ “If an empty Xwiki starts with no errors, but you unable to upload the default set of pages (XAR file) also try to increase “max_allowed_packet” parameter as shown above. ” So I changed my.cnf max_allowed_packet = 32M Then I restarted mysql while the Xwiki/tomcat instance was running. Now I’m able to upload the XAR successfully, then import the default Xwiki environment. After changing the default Xwiki ‘Admin’ password I now have a working Xwiki instance http://nielsmayer.jelastic.servint.net/ .................. I was also easily able to get "domain forwarding with masking" ( http://support.godaddy.com/help/422 ) seemingly "out of the box" as well: http://trainspodder.com/ All pretty good for a few hours of highly interrupted work. Amazing progress across-the-board both in XWiki and also easy cloud-deployment of the platform .... Especially because I've been off doing C++/QML/Javascript work using http://qt-project.org for MeeGo/Harmattan/Symbian devices, e.g. http://voicetogoog.googlecode.com http://mediatator.googlecode.com and haven't touched anything Java-related in a while. (/me breathes sigh of relief I've not been seeing inscrutable java backtraces all morning :-) ) -- Niels http://nielsmayer.com PS: For more info:on Jelastic: https://blogs.oracle.com/theaquarium/entry/jelastic_leveraging_glassfish_cl… http://www.devshed.com/c/a/Java/Jelastic-Java-PaaS-Availability-and-Pricing… http://javamomentum.be/2012/03/java-and-cloud-in-10-minutes-jelastic/ http://whyjava.wordpress.com/2012/03/05/say-hello-to-jelastic/ http://cloud.dzone.com/articles/build-cloud-jelastic-maven http://blog.jelastic.com/2012/03/19/jelastic-holy-grail-of-java-hosting/

[xwiki-users] java heap out of memory error during import of 72MB XAR file?
by mohit gupta 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

I have XAR file of 72MB . When i Import it thru XWI UI i get java heap out of memory error. I have mentioened the value of JAVA_OPTS as -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m. My hardware specification is 32 bit windows operating system and 4 GB RAM. and using the tomcat as webserver. If i increase the value of JAVA_OPTS to -Xms1536m -Xmx1536m, tomcat does not even start(Probably reason is 32 bit operating system and 4 GB RAM). I can not increase change the server configuration somehow.How should i go about resolving this issue? The only thing i can take help for now is do all the set up stuff on 8GB machine and do restore of database on 4GB machine. But again i am worried with some repurcussion of this approach i.e if there is a deltion/rename of some column etc , on new xwiki version an. then it will be hard time for me to restore the databse. Looking for quick response. i am sure you guys also must had faced this issue in past. Kindly share your experiences For your information same xar file gets imported on 64 bit operating system and 8GB RAM but how should i successfully resolve import of 72MB XAR file on 32 bit OS and 4 GB RAM? i can not upgrade this client machine due to some restrictions.

Re: [xwiki-users] Ratings Application not working
by jerem 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

I had the same problem and managed to make it work ... But in my case I think it was the plugin badly declared (I had forgotten the '\'), seems not to be the case for you. Maybe you could try to reinstall the ratings application extension from the extension manager now that the plugin is installed. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Ratings-Application-not-working-tp7379389… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
