[xwiki-users] Problems to create groups
by Anders Andersson 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

Hello! I have installed xwiki on an Oracle Application Server and Oracle 10g Database. I have problems when I create new groups. I don't get an error in the webbrowser, everything works as normal except that my groups doesn't show up. After I typed the new group name and pressed OK, I return to the list of groups but still only got the XWikiAllGroup. In the log I get this (it is a longer message but I don't want to make a long posting): org.hibernate.ObjectNotFoundException: No row with the given identifier exists: [com.xpn.xwiki.doc.XWikiDocument#1287555159] at org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl$1.handleEntityNotFound(SessionFactoryImpl.java:377) at org.hibernate.event.def.DefaultLoadEventListener.load(DefaultLoadEventListener.java:145) I get the new group in the database (taken from XWIKIOBJECTS; however I don't know the map of the schema you use, so I might be looking on the wrong place): "XWO_ID" "XWO_NUMBER" "XWO_NAME" "XWO_CLASSNAME" "1300917321" "0" "XWiki.NewGroup" "XWiki.TagClass" Does anyone have a clue what the solution to the problem is? Btw I can create users... Thanks alot Anders Andersson

Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki Does Not Handle Attachments Efficiently
by goldring, richard 10 Jun '08

Yes storing attachments directly in the file system and referencing them would be good. -----Original Message----- From: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org]On Behalf Of AW Sent: 09 June 2008 21:15 To: XWiki Users Subject: [xwiki-users] XWiki Does Not Handle Attachments Efficiently Is there anything I can do to make XWiki 1.4 handle large attachments? That is, attachments from a few megabytes up to a few dozen megabytes. XWiki does not appear to efficiently handle attachments in general; large attachments appear to require extraordinary measures and resources. In testing prior to a deployment I attempted to attach a 56 MB file to an instance running on a server with 2GB of RAM and using MySQL as the database. To attach the file: 1. I first had to set the MySQL max_allowed_packet value in /etc/my.cnf to a larger value, since by default it's only 1MB and XWiki stores attachments directly in the database, rather than saving them in the file system and referencing the attachment's path. 2. Next I needed change the maximum attachment size in XWiki, which can be done by "edit[ing] the XWiki.XWikiPreferences class and add[ing] a NumberProperty field of type long, named upload_maxsize" which I finally figured out I could accomplish by visiting a page similar to "http://my.server/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=object" ...although this wasn't immediately obvious. 3. At this point attempting to attach the file resulted in a JDBC error, which I resolved by manually changing some columns in the database from type mediumblob to longblob. 4. Attempting to attach the file still didn't work, this time due to Java heap space limitations. I increased the size of the heap, modifying the JAVA_OPTS with -Xmx512m -Xms512m (setting the initial and maximum heap sizes to 512MB, up from 256). This had no effect on the error, so I increased the size to 1 GB, but the error persisted. At 1.2 GB I was able to attach the file. Next I attempted to delete the attachment along with the page to which it is attached. My naïve assumption was that deleting an attachment should be easier than adding one and I didn't anticipate problems. Unfortunately, this again resulted in out of memory errors. To work around the problem I tried deleting the attachment by clicking the delete button in the show --> attachments screen. This still resulted in an out of memory error, so I upped the heap size to 1.6 GB, or 80% of the RAM in the server. This resulted in very heavy swapping, yet still failed due to an out of memory exception. (On the positive side, at least the swapping helped keep the processor utilization under 100%.) I've ordered another 2GB of RAM and will try increasing the heap size again after it's installed. Until then, is there anything I can do to keep attachments from eating the server alive? If I recall correctly, there has been talk about saving attachments externally, rather than within the database. Has anyone built a mechanism to allow this, or is there any news to report on that front? Also, does anyone have any advice on how I can excise this page and its 56MB attachment from the system prior to more memory arriving? (I'd like to do so as, aside from the attachment problems and dysfunctional WYSIWYG editor, the system looks deployable.) As it stands, unless I'm doing something incorrectly, I have to conclude that it's basically impractical to use attachments larger than a few megabytes with XWiki, and even small attachments are frightfully ungainly. - AW _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Thales UK Ltd (Wells) DISCLAIMER: The information contained in this e-mail is confidential.

Hello! I was trying to use the roundToInt method of the Velocity Math tool. I found on the following e-mail three different ways of invoking this tool, but none seems to work for me. Do I need to activate anything? I'm using the version 1.4 of XWiki. The e-mail: http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2008-April/011828.html Thanks, -- Tiago Rinck Caveden http://caveden.multiply.com

[xwiki-users] Active Directory: Log on permission to the DC is needed to authenticate
by mserel＠purecodeconsulting.com 09 Jun '08

09 Jun '08

All, I'm working on setting up active directory authentication for a xwiki site but our domain permissions only allow users to log onto certain computers for security reasons. The users do have permission to log onto the server that is hosting XWiki but when they try and authenticate they receive the LDAP data 531 error which means they do not have permission to log onto the workstation. When I add permissions to log onto the domain controller the users are then able to authenticate. Is there any reason that they need local login access to the DC/Is there any way to fix this? Also, when we use the wyiswyg editor the layout becomes skewed; for example the editor overlaps the center section and the bars to the right overlap the editor. Thanks for your help! Sincerely, Matthew Serel

[xwiki-users] XMLRPC Page Creation problem
by David Brain 09 Jun '08

09 Jun '08

Hi, I'm trying to create pages via the XMLRPC api - while this seems to mostly work, I am encountering one problem. When my page titles contain spaces (e.g. 'My Test Page') this is saved into XWiki with the spaces replaced by underscores e.g. 'My_Test_Wiki'. Is there a correct approach to take to allow spaces in the page titles within XWiki? I see that in order to link to pages with spaces in the titles slightly different markup is needed ('[My Test Page>view.My Test Page]'), but I can handle doing this in my code. Thanks, David.
