Well, the version of Xwiki hadn't changed, nor tomcat, nor java. One day it's been running for months without issue and the next it is eating CPU every time I try to look at What's New or Blogs. What should I be looking at besides users posting? I've opened XE-351 to track the issue. Thanks for the help, -Dave

[xwiki-users] xwiki eating all the CPU
by Dave Mangot 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

My 1.6 Xwiki install has started eating all my CPU when I try to go to any "dynamic page" like Blogs or What's New. Regular static pages work fine. Eventually, tomcat times out the connection to the rendered page. I upgraded to 1.7 but the behavior is still the same. Attached is the Xwiki.log, which doesn't seem to have much other than an NPE which I doubt is the cause. Also included is a thread dump in the catalina.out. At the very least this could be a denial of service attack because I'm sure it must be because of some entry someone made.

[xwiki-users] Multiple LDAP backends?
by Daniel Barowy 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hello everyone, We have XWiki set up to authenticate users against our Active Directory using XWiki's LDAP lookup feature. It works beautifully for our main office. However, we have several other offices, and they would like to use XWiki as well. The problem is that these users are in different domains, and use different AD domain controllers, which means we have to query those LDAP backends separately. It looks to me like XWiki only supports querying of one domain controller at a time. As a workaround until a more permanent solution can be found, I am creating local user accounts on XWiki for these people and allowing fallback authentication against the local database. Of course, this setup will be problematic in the future with regard to password policy, so I'd really like to get LDAP functional for them as well. Any suggestions? Thanks-- we're really liking XWiki here. Dan

[xwiki-users] xwiki mssql

Hi, XWiki and mssql doesn't seem to work. I found an hibernate file for mssql in 1.7 (seems to be there by default since 1.5.? (not 1.5 but 1.5.2 didn't look at 1.5.1)).

[xwiki-users] Removing the Register Link
by Nick Watts 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

I'm using XWiki Enterprise version 1.6.1.13621. I was following the instructions in the FAQ to forbid registration ( http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowCanIForbidRegistration, which seems to be out-of-date for my version BTW) and noticed some strange behavior. I don't want anyone to self-register so I denied access in the "Register" column of the "Rights" admin page for all groups. I logged out and noticed the register link was still on the page. I tried registering a fake user and it worked. After playing around for a while I figured out that I had to actually grant Register access for the XWikiAdminGroup group to get the Register link to disappear. If I deny Register access or just leave it blank for the XWikiAdminGroup group the Register link is present and works. This is backwards to me. Without looking at the code it seems like a logical error somewhere. Could someone tell me whether I'm understanding this process correctly or not? -- Nick Watts blog: thewonggei.wordpress.com

Re: [xwiki-users] Importing the default xar

This seems to crop up a lot i.e. overwriting existing admin pages, etc. Couldn't there be a flag associated with admin type pages to prevent them getting wrongly overwritten when copying content from an older version of xwiki to a newer version of xwiki, but enabling existing user acounts and page content to be copied over?

[xwiki-users] Active directory + multiple group_mapping = strange behaviour
by couak couak 17 Dec '08

17 Dec '08

Hi, I'm using XWiki Enterprise v1.7 under Windows 2003 and Oracle Database I set up 2 AD groups that map to the same XWiki group : xwiki.authentication.ldap.group_mapping=XWiki.MyXWikiGroup=cn=ADGroup1,ou=Site,dc=company,dc=comI\ XWiki.MyGroup=cn=ADGroup2,ou=Site,dc=company,dc=com Users that belong to MyXWikiGroup are able to EDIT a space, all others can't. As long as a user from ADGroup2 is logged and visit the space, user's permissions can't stop swapping from "able to edit" and "not able to edit" the space. I took a look on the group changes history and it seems that a change is performed 10 times a minute. After one hour of connection the history reached the version number 700+ I search through the mailing-list archives but I didn't see any things similar. Any ideas ? David
